The Youngston Stool carries the industrial character of the Youngston family up to bar and counter height. A flat rectangular back panel sits on two tall posts above an upholstered seat pad, and four straight steel legs are braced by a footrest stretcher across the front and additional stretchers at the sides and back. Shown here in a brushed galvanized-style finish with a dark seat, it has the look of vintage factory seating with the comfort guests expect at the bar.
With a deep powder coat palette and a choice of leather, faux leather or performance fabric seats, the Youngston Stool can be tuned to anything from a gastropub to a casino bar. It coordinates with the Youngston Chair and the Youngston Wood Series, so you can carry one look from the dining room to the bar rail and the high-tops.
The steel frame is welded, not bolted, for a rigid stool that holds up to heavy bar traffic. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards, and its foam and upholstery meet CAL TB 117-2013. The Youngston Stool ships fully assembled from the factory and is covered 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.
