Today islands are a staple in most kitchens. Many home owners want either the extra work space or additional seating. While the kitchen table, kitchen cabinets, and chairs have not been replaced, you still need to purchase seating so your guests can enjoy your island. Bar stools have proven to be the best choice.
Being as the counter top of an island is much higher than the height of a standard kitchen table, typical chairs will not suffice. Bar stools are the appropriate height for comfortable eating at the island. There are tons of different styles to choose from.
If you are looking to go as cheap and as simple as possible, try looking at unfinished, wood stools. Depending on your preference you can either purchase a stool with no back or one with a back. Keep in mind that backless stools are comfortable for short amounts of time, but if you are looking to have your guests thoroughly enjoy sitting at your island, you may want to purchase something with a little support.
There are also bar stools that are offered upholstered, so you can get a typical wood stool with a cushioned seat. This not only offers more comfort, but it also enhances the design aspect. You can either purchase bar stools that match your kitchen table and chairs, or you pick a contrasting color. The contrasting color will work best if your entire kitchen has the same sort of color throughout. This will break up the scheme. If you are already working with tons of colors and textures, try matching the stools to your existing set.
As times are changing, and families are migrating from the kitchen table to the island, you have to change with the times. By simply adding three bar stools to your island you are increasing your number of guests, and I always say, “the more the merrier!”

Kitchen stools should always coincide with your motif.
“Depending on your preference you can either purchase a stool with no back or one with a back.” That is a GREAT point I didn’t think of that. Thanks for the great post! Can’t wait to show you my new kitchen with backless stools. Can you post the after shots to your site????

If you cannot find one in the exact height you require, try looking for a wooded legged stool that is higher, but that you can cut to meet your needs.
