Two tone, deliberately

The grey paint stops at the seat and the timber is left bare, so the stool reads as two materials rather than one painted lump. Against a timber counter the seat picks up the worktop and the frame stays quiet.

Twenty four inches and 400 pounds

A 24 in seat suits counters of 35 in to 39 in, which the drawing states. The 400 lb badge is the headline: the maker credits the triangle braced rubber wood frame and the acacia legs for it.

Where the 400 pounds comes from

Three things: triangular bracing under the seat, crossbars between the legs and acacia rather than rubber wood in the legs themselves. Acacia is the harder timber, which is why it goes where the load is.

Back and seat

The back leans rather than standing square, and the seat is 16.5 in by 18 in of flat timber. There is no padding, so the seat depth and the lean of the back are the only comfort on offer.

For counters of 35 in to 39 in.

Bare sealed wood, no upholstery.

One of the highest stated loads here.

Three rails, leaned off square.

Harder than the rubber wood frame.

A rail across the front.

What we stand behind

• The 16.5 in by 18 in seat, the 24 in seat height, the 39 in overall height, the 7 in footrest and the 400 lb capacity all come from this listing's own drawing, which also prints the 35 in to 39 in table range.
• The 400 lb capacity is a static load figure. Industry guidance is that a load rating on its own does not indicate how long a chair will last in use.
• The item code carries a white reference while the title and every photograph show a grey painted frame. Grey is what is described here.
• The seat is bare sealed timber with no padding, which makes it easy to clean and firmer than an upholstered stool.
• Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.

Is the frame white or grey?

Grey. The title and the photographs both show grey; the white appears only in the item code.

What counter height suits them?

Thirty five to 39 in on the drawing. A 24 in seat under a 36 in counter leaves 12 in of knee room.

Is a timber seat comfortable?

It is flat and 18 in deep, with an inclined back above it. For a long meal a tie on cushion would help.

What makes the 400 pound figure possible?

The maker credits triangular bracing under the seat, crossbars between the legs and acacia wood legs, which are harder than the rubber wood frame.
