The height of your home bar, kitchen counter, or pub table will help determine what the appropriate height of your bar stool should be.

The height is determined by the stool's seat height, not its total height.

This ensures that the legs will fit under the table's surface.

Your kitchen counter should be about 10-12" higher than your bar stool's seat height.

Typically, counter height seats are 24-26" high, while bar height seats are 30-32" high.
