We use the term barstool to refer to a stool that ranges in height from 26″ to 44.”  They can be made of metal, wood, mdf, particle board, or other more exotic materials.  They can range in price from $99.00 to over $2000.00 per chair.   The variance in price is due to the materials, the swivel, and the manufacturing process.  Because of the height of the legs better quality materials and better manufacturing are necessary for the stool to last.  Emagine a 250 lb person sitting on soft wood or thin aluminum tube high stool.  Next time you are in a good bar feel the weight and sturdiness of the barstools.  That should be your benchmark for quality.  Now determine how much use your stools are going to get and how important the “look” of your room is to you, then start your search!
