1. Function over fashion

Since furniture tends to be a bigger purchase than most of us, it makes sense to carefully consider your considerations. For example.

Is the right vibe your main concern, or is comfort your main concern?

Do you prefer a fixed design, or do you want your bar stool to swivel up?

Does the height of your bar stool need to be adjusted?

Do you want a bar stool with back support, or are you looking for more of a classic bar stool look? 

These are all important questions and it's useful to ask other members of the family for advice, especially those who may one day be found drinking on them.

2. Get the height right

The height of a bar stool can be one of the most confusing parts of the entire buying process. Often, this is because many of us make the wrong assumptions when buying a bar stool. One of the problems we often encounter is that the bar table itself is roughly equal to the breakfast bar.

The resulting assumption is that bar stools and Dining Chairs can be used interchangeably. After all, if you could put your matte black dining chairs under the bar in the next room, it would be a great money saver and very convenient. Alas, as you can now appreciate, the 150mm height difference between the breakfast chairs and the bar makes all the difference.

3. Mix or match?

Once you've assessed your priorities, you're ready to get to the fun stuff: interior design. It's all about whether you want your new bar stools to blend in with your existing decor, or whether they should make a bold statement in your dining area. The first option is the most practical and easiest, although in some cases, you may be missing a great opportunity to transform your bar space.
