Good bar stool height for typical Multicade / inexpensive local store sources?
snorpmeister:
What's a good bar stool height for a stand-up (*not* a cocktail) Multicade. I'd play longer if I didn't have to stand. Also hoping to find a good deal on a stool at a local area store, whether it be a Big Lots, Garden Ridge, Walmart, or other budget store. Nothing fancy. Don't know if Garden Ridge is a national chain, but there's one by me with a huge selection of bar stools at reasonable prices. Can anyone recommend any specific national chain stores or brands.
Affordable / inexpensive to me is between $40 and $80. Again, don't need anything fancy looking. The aesthetics don't matter. Just something reasonably comfortable to extend game play.
Other stores in my area (Raleigh, NC) would be:
* Target
* Bed Bath and Beyond
* Kohls
* Harbor Freight
* Lowes and Home Depot
* Sams Club
* BJ's Warehouse
No local IKEA.
Probably plenty of other chain stores I can't recall.

Try Craigslist if you're in a reasonably sized metro area. Always good deals on barstools there.

You can get a black cushioned 24" folding stool at Wal-mart for like $18.

The wife and I got a pair of these last weekend for our Arcade Cabinet:

They are height adjustable (kids vs. adults playing) and were $50 each.
