Different Types of Bar Stools Explained
Acrylic Bar Stools
Acrylic Bar Stools, are becoming ever so much more popular, the main advantage with the acrylic apart form its asthetic properties is that the fact that they are very easy to clean and wipe down, they are virtually stain proof which makes them ideal for kitchens or breakfast bars.There is also a much wider range of colours available on this market, for our customers that specify unusual colours like purple,or orange, you can also get them in transparent aswell.The majority of these stools are available in gas lift only but fixed is also available in some styles.These stools are ideal if you are going for a bit of a funky theme in your kitchen or breakfast bar, or if it just needs brightening up a bit, these stools exactly fit the bill, they can transform a boring kitchen into something quite unique.This is why many bars and restaurants will go for acrylic over any thing else as not only do they look good but also they are very manageable and difficult to damage, which is important if you have many people passing through and using them, unlike some of their cheaper plastic counterparts they are very difficult to crack or scratch due to the strong composition they are made up of, sometimes you may pay a little bit more for it, but in the long run the extra will certainly pay off.
Faux Leather Bar Stools
Faux leather bar stools.Now the thinking behind the material is in the name, most of the time faux leather is either going to be made of a strong pu composition or pvc, depending on where they are purchased.Its a material that is made and designed to look and feel exactly like the real thing, but at a fraction of the price and without all of the maintenance a leather bar stool will require.This is why they are very popular with our customers, trade and the public, they are in fact are best selling line of stools we run.Our two best selling models in the faux leather are the sorrento and the ever popular zenith bar stool, with the zenith selling over 200 units a week!Apart from the price of our products, we believe this bar stool works so well because it not only looks and feels good, but its incredibly comfortable and the chrome arms really set the faux leather off especially in the black, the traditional black and chrome work so well together, they both give the bar stool a mysterious and classy look along with being timeless item of furniture that will never go out of fashion.Faux leathers are now available in a wider variety of colours aswell, such as green, yellow, orange and evenpink!They only need a simple wipe down every now and then, and they dont need the time consuming upkeep like real leather stools need, such as the treating and conditioning them on an annual basis.They are virtually maintenence free and they look and feel exactly like the real thing!
ABS Bar Stools
ABS Bar Stools, are made of a strong composition plastic.Out of all the bar stools we sell ABS have the widest variety of colours available, they are also the most affordable stools we sell with prices starting at just £19.99!The pod bar stool in particular is very popular, it not only looks good but because of its many ergonomical benefits, such as the support ridge at the back of the bar stool and the support lip at the front, it is very comfortable, and sturdy, so you wont have to worry about falling of it! The crescent bar stool is another new one we have just recieved in and this also proving to be another popular line, it has quite a designer look to it and with the high back, again you will retain a comfortable sturdy feel when using it, this particular stool is also available in many colours aswell such as pink, orange, blue, green, brown, deep red and lipstick red.ABS bar stools again are very servicable and only require a wipe down with a damp cloth every now and then on the seat and the chrome pole to keep them looking as good as new, the composition they are made of again also make them very difficult to break or crack, so they are very popular with the trade aswell as the public.So far we only stock these stools in gas lift but they are due to come in shortly in a fixed type aswell.
Leather Bar Stools
If price is no factor in your purchase of bar stools, and you are quite happy to pay that little bit extra to make your home or bar look the business then leather bar stools are for you.When most people think of quality and lustre they think of leather.Well the real thing ticks both these boxes.With faux leather in comparison to real leather you still get many advantages, but not all of them, you dont get that authentic leather smell with faux leather, nor do you get all the natural characteristics like you do with real leather, such as natural scar marks, form the hide to prove this was once a living breathing thing.Leather bar stools are available in many different forms, there is nubuck which is a natural form leather, and untreated it has many similar properties to suede, but being untreated you do have some advantages such as the soft natural feel, but at the same time you do have to be a bit more careful as the material being untreated are slightly more likely to stain as they are porous and lock in the moisture.There is also semi analine, which along with nubuck and suede are the dearest of all the leathers available.The main reason for this is because with semi analine again this is another untreated leather, it is dyed only, so the manufacturers have to pick more selective parts to put on the bar stools as leather is naturally covered in many scar marks, barb wire marks, and even brand marks, which most people would rather not see.The most common type of leather used in bar stools is corrected grain, this is treated and sealed leather with the grain manufactured on the hide to make it look like the natural grain on the skin, hence its name.This leather is especilly good for busy households and commercial properties as it is difficult to stain or mark being sealed most fluids will just wipe straight off.It still will however require an annual conditioning fluid applied to it though like the other leathers, to mainly keep it looking and good, but also to lock in that traditional leather smell and keep it moisturised.
Wooden Bar Stools
Wooden Bar Stools.When most people thionk of bar stools they think of those typical old wooden bar stools, you see in old movies or on the telly.Well that is actually not far off the mark, many wooden bar stools are still made like that.Not everyone out there wants a modern or contemporary look, especially with the older generation of people they may still want to retain that traditional look to be in keeping with the rest of their furniture, here at world of bar stools we like to stock something for everyone.Or on the flip side to that a lot of our customers want to create a retro look for maybe a bar they are doing up and wooden bar stools fit the bill.According to recent surveys we have carried out, the majority of wooden bar stools we have sold are for pubs or bars that people have in their house, rather than the breakfast bar or kitchen where most people choose to go for faux leather or ABS.For most bars people have in their homes unlike in commercial clubs or bars, i guess this reason falls down to the fact they still have the quite cosy feel and most household bars are wood aswell.Wooden bar stools are available with wooden tops, leather tops, faux leather tops and even fabric.
