Title: Good place to get bar stools?
Post by: blownmaro on March 05, 2010, 03:36:06 pm
Anyone know of a good place to get bar stools, or have a recommendation for a good bar stool?  I am trying to find a good solution so I don't break my back or the bank.

Depends on where you live. I bought my stools for my old house at a pool table place, they were basic black and chrome with no back...about $55 each. I recently bought 6 new ones at Garden Ridge Pottery. They are black metal and wood swivel stools with a back. They ran about $125 each. If price is no object, Aminis has a good selection, and $30,000 pool tables. Like I said, it depends on where you live. But I would strongly advise against ordering them online or from anywhere else without actually seeing (and sitting on) one in person. The quality varies wildly.

A bar?

Though they might frown on that...

Big Lots.  They regularly have "shop stools" for around 30 bucks.  They look short, but generally they are on a pnuematic ram that gets them up to around 3 feet, which is perfect for most arcade machines.
