Elevated Seat and Sturdy Footrest
A bucket bar stool’s seat is elevated from the ground to ensure that the customer’s entire body weight rests on the chair. Intrinsically, the elevated seat relieves the pressure from the customer’s legs and transfers it to the ground through the steel supports.
The footrest, on the other hand, helps prevent a customer’s numbness that would otherwise result from suspending their legs.
The footrest is designed to complement the aesthetics of the chair, depending on the bucket bar stool’s design. The rotating bucket bar stool has a circular footrest to ensures that the legs are supported regardless of the direction the customer is facing.
Steel Frame and Supports
Chairs are primarily designed to bear significant loads in the form of imposed loads (from the user’s body weight) and dead loads (self-weight). As such, bucket bar stools are designed to accommodate such loads, courtesy of their steel frames and supports.
The legs of a bucket bar stool are fixed at a slanting angle, creating a wide base area at the ground’s contact. The wide base area helps increase the bucket bar stool’s stability by lowering its CoG (Center of Gravity).
Additionally, the legs have protective rubber pads to prevent your chair from slipping whenever a customer sits on it. Furthermore, the protective pads ensure that your floor is protected against chipping, thereby extending its lifespan.
The footrest serves as an additional structural support for the bucket bar stool’s legs, which not only help prevent swaying, by also increase the frame’s rigidity.

As a result, the customer is able to sit on the bucket bar stool for a longer period, translating to a longer stay in your bar.
The backrest is slightly tilted, and when combined with the curves on the seat, the bucket bar stool ensures maximum comfort and relaxation.
