There are many factors which influence people’s decision on which bar stool they are going to purchase including the colour, the shape and material. However one of the most important key features is the comfort and this often proves difficult to achieve, especially for the larger person.
Naturally, the first things to consider are the size and shape of the bar stools. One of the more suitable alternatives would include the Monza bar stool as it has a much bigger seat than normal and a sweeping backrest and armrest – with more than adequate padding, this is a very robust stool.
The majority of the bar stools on our website have been upgraded from the British Standard of 1.2 gauge metal to 1.5 gauge metal meaning that unsurprisingly Barstool Citys stools are of a superior quality to many other companies bar stools. Customers will find, the more expensive the bar stool which you decide to purchase the thicker the gauge will be and subsequently will be able to support more weight. An excellent example of this is the Vegas bar stool which combines style and durability. Another advantage to buying a more expensive bar stool is that the seat material will be of better distinction, more robust and all-round added support.
Stools that have welded metalwork are also a good option to go for rather than self-assembly stools because they are more stable. The Cube bar stool available in brushed and chrome finish comes complete with four legs and a well-cushioned seat making the stool as sturdy as possible, whilst carrying a more traditional look.
There is often a misconception that a stool with armrests will be more suitable for the larger person, but this is not always the case. Having armrest can often restrict the person sitting on the stool sometimes making it uncomfortable. The Lush Fixed height, which is available in a variety of colours, is great for supporting a larger weight at a greater height – an excellent choice for those with work surfaces which are higher than normal.
