The Stringer Stool - 400 Series is a clean, utilitarian aluminum stool with a classic slatted back: four vertical slats rise from the seat between two tall rear posts, capped by a gently curved top rail. The flat seat sits on four straight, slightly splayed legs tied together with a perimeter foot rest, giving the stool the crisp, familiar profile of a timeless metal bar stool.
Built with an aluminum frame and meant for outdoor use, it is a practical choice for pool bars, patio counters and rooftop rails as well as indoor bars that want a light, bright metal look. It is offered at both bar and counter height, and it coordinates with the Stringer Swivel Stool-400 Series when part of a space calls for a swivel seat.
The Stringer is a welded aluminum frame rather than a bolted one, so it stays tight and quiet through years of daily use. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards. Like all of our seating, it ships fully assembled from the factory and is covered by a 3-year frame structural warranty and a 1-year finish warranty from shipment. Its aluminum frame is meant for outdoor use on patios, pool decks and terraces.
