The Grafton Stool with Upholstered Seat Pad pairs our classic wire stool with a fitted cushion for extra comfort at the bar. A welded steel wire grid forms the curved seat and back, a padded seat pad sits on top, and a slim rod base with an integrated footrest carries it to bar or counter height. The open mesh keeps the profile light while the cushion adds color and softness.
Choose a polished stainless steel, powder coated steel or brass frame to go bright and modern or warm and glamorous. The Grafton coordinates with the matching Grafton chairs, making it easy to carry one look from the dining room to the bar.
The frame is welded, not bolted, for a rigid, durable stool. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards, and the foam and upholstery meet CAL TB 117-2013. It ships fully assembled from the factory and is backed by our 3-year frame structural warranty and 1-year finish and upholstery warranty from shipment. Each stool comes standard with heavy-duty nylon glides, suitable for most commercial floor types, including hardwood, tile, stone, concrete and carpet.
