Default Best place to buy Bar stools?

We brought four bar stools with us hoping we could use them in our new house. However, the counter in our kitchen is much higher than at our other house. Where is a good place to find bar stools the right height for the counter in Begonia? We plan on eating at the counter a lot.
Thanks!

Look on line. There are several companies that show almost every stool available and most let you pick the fabric, color of the metal/ wood as well as the height. I did this and saved over 45% on two stools for our island in our CYV.

Default Counter Stools

What is the correct height for stools for the counter in a Begonia? 24in? 30in? We too have a Begonia and are in the market for stools.

We have a CYV, Bonifay model and we are also looking for 30" bar stools. Not as easy to find as one would think. Southern Lifestyles had some that would have been the perfect color except they were close to $900 for two. Our counter will hold 4 easily and way too expensive just for "decoration".

Don't buy from them unless what you want is in the store. Several people including me have experienced considerable waits (or never received) special order items from this place. They are not good at tracking orders. See: Problems with Futons Barstools & More?

We bought ours at Southern Lifestyles at Lake Sumter. They are the higher version, we got a matching glass top dinette to go with the set. Their prices weren't cheap, but I figure weren't not going to be replacing them anytime soon. Since that photo, we had the carpet in the dining room removed and wood floors installed, works much better now. At the time, these were in stock on the showroom floor.

Here's a newer photo, we also changed the chandelier and had the kitchen cabinets refaced in white.

I looked for a long while, and went to that bar stool place also. Most of them are just too expensive to my way of thinking. I didn't want them to be a focal point, just a bar stool. I finally ordered 2 from Overstock and they are actually eucalyptus outdoor bar stools. They match well with my cabinets and teak furniture. Very pleased and they were only about $100 each.

Terrible business in every way. Do your research and stay away from them.
