34" Bar Stools - Perfect for Tall Counters (and
Tall People)
Most kitchen and bar counters stand about 40 inches high. However, builders
are now producing 45" models with increasing frequency. This has
thrown a bit of a curveball at new homeowners and bar owners who find
themselves needing bar stools that are a bit higher than standard models
(but not a lot taller). Enter the 34" bar stool! This height is ideal
for use with the slightly taller counters.
It is possible, of course, to use the standard bar stool height of 30"
in conjunction with higher countertops. Nevertheless, doing so will put
people sitting in them and trying to eat comfortably in a slightly awkward
position. It just won't feel right to them.
Have you ever eaten at a restaurant where the table seemed either too
far away or too near your face? This happens a lot in establishments that
use booths with seats that have lost their resilience and cause you to
sink. You suddenly feel like the tabletop is right in your face.
Sitting in a 34" bar stool at a 45" counter or table is the
correct combination. Not too close, not too far away. As Goldilocks would
have said, "Just right."
Another use for 34" stools is for tall folks who will be sitting
in them without being at a counter or table. Standard bar stools have
seats that rise 30" from the floor. This is a good sitting position
for people who are in the average range of heights. However, for those
who are a bit taller, especially men, this presents a bit of a quandary.
The stool is in that in-between position, where it's uncomfortable to
place your feet on the foot rail, but you're still too far away to place
them on the floor without straining the backs of your thighs.
The 34" bar stool is ideal for taller folks. They are to six-footers
what 30" stools are to those of average stature.
