As more designers build entertainment areas in their homes, demand for bar stools is on the rise. Bar stools are great for casual get-togethers where guests can watch their hosts prepare drinks or cook dinner for everyone attending. However, bar stools can quickly become uncomfortable if you buy standard wood models without backs. Your guests want to rest when they visit you, and balancing for long periods of time can be difficult.
Fortunately, there are plenty of bar stools with backs on the market to choose from. Evaluate your current design aesthetic and what you want from your bar furniture, then search for bar stools that meet your needs. Here are seven bar stools with backs our Big Sandy team has chosen that you’ll absolutely love without going over your budget.

FAQs
When it comes to designing your home, it’s important to have all the right answers. Here are some questions our Big Sandy shoppers have asked.
How high should bar stools be?
Most bar stools should be between 28 and 33 inches high for the cushion location. This is a natural seating level for most people, if not slightly elevated. If you are looking for bar stools with backs, measure both the seat and back heights. This can give you an idea of whether or not the pieces will fit in your space.
What are the easiest bar stools to clean?
If you are looking for low-maintenance bar stools for your home, try to find pieces that have limited soft spaces. Wood chairs and stools are easiest to wipe down. If you want easy-to-clean pieces that also have cushions, invest in vinyl or faux-leather chairs. Bar stools made with porous fabrics will be the hardest to keep clean and will stain the fastest.
