| Factor | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Height Clearance | Leave ~25-30 cm (10-12″) between stool seat and countertop so legs fit comfortably. |
| Back & Support | Backrests or mid-backs help posture; backless stools look sleek but may be less comfortable long term. |
| Seat Comfort | Cushioning, padding, fabric softness or firmness matter especially for frequent use. |
| Material & Maintenance | Metal and faux leather are easier to clean; fabric gives comfort but requires more care. |
| Style Match | Match finish, colour, form with counters, cabinets, kitchen/office theme. |

FAQs — Counter Stools
Q1: What height should a counter stool be for a standard kitchen counter in Dubai?
Typically, about 60-65 cm (24-26″) seat height works well for counters that are around 90-100 cm (35-40″) high. This gives comfortable leg clearance.
Q2: Are swivel counter stools better than fixed ones?
Swivel stools offer flexibility of movement which can be great in busy or shared spaces. Fixed ones are often more stable and lower maintenance. It depends on how and where you’ll use them.
Q3: What material is best in the UAE climate?
PU leather or faux leather, treated metals, or sealed woods are good. Avoid fabrics that stain easily or absorb moisture if placed in humid environments.
Q4: Should counter stools have backrests?
If you’ll sit for longer periods, yes backrests or partial back support help reduce fatigue. For short use (meals, quick tasks), backless or low-back stools may be fine.
Q5: Do you provide delivery and assembly for counter stools across UAE?
Yes, Karnak Home offers delivery and installation services throughout Dubai and the UAE for counter stool purchases.
