Do 36 Inch Bar Stools Make Sense?
Why You Might Need One – Historically most kitchen and bar counter tops in the home were built at a height of 40-44 inches, which makes a 30 inch bar stool the right height for comfort whether you’re trying to eat lunch, enjoy a glass of wine, or just leaning on the counter top in casual conversation. However, home builders today are featuring countertops and islands at 45 to 48 inches. And since you need about 12 inches between the barstool seat and the bottom of the counter to sit comfortable a 36 inch bar stool is just right. A 30 bar stool has been the standard for years simply because it’s the right height for the average person to sit comfortably. But if your 6’2″ inches or taller, you’re not the average person and a 30 bar stool isn’t going to be comfortable. A 36 bar stool or perhaps even a 34 bar stool is a much better option if you want to be able to sit comfortably for an extended period of time.
