What a bar stool’s height measures
Stool seats come in three heights: a counter-height stool at 24 in (61 cm), a bar stool at 30 in (76 cm) and an extra-tall stool at 36 in (91 cm), which goes with high pub tables. A dining chair seat, for comparison, is about 18 in (46 cm) from the floor.
A bar stool suits a bar or a high table. A kitchen counter usually stands 35 to 36 in (89 to 91 cm) from the floor, and the stool used against it is a 24 to 26 in counter stool.
Also listed at 2 ft 6 in: Table tennis table.
