Materials
Because outdoor bar stools are exposed to the elements every day, material considerations are more important than with indoor bar stools. Aluminum, wrought iron, rattan, and wood are the most popular outdoor bar stool materials.
Aluminum Outdoor Bar Stools
The advantages of aluminum outdoor bar stools are a light weight and great
corrosion/rust resistance. Cast aluminum is extremely low maintenance, and aluminum bar stools are easy to move in the event of company or outdoor dining arrangements.
Wrought Iron Outdoor Bar Stools
Wrought iron outdoor bar stools provide a fashionable look to any outdoor bar.
Heavier than other outdoor stools, they're reliably sturdy, and less likely to topple
or yield to strong winds. The combination of stylishness and reliability makes
wrought iron bar stools some of our most popular items. |  |
Rattan Outdoor Bar Stools
Rattan is the material most people are actually thinking of when they shop
for bamboo outdoor bar stools. Rattan outdoor bar stools capture the casual, summery
look that many people want from their outdoor bar furniture. These are stronger
than wicker or bamboo, and they can be painted or finished like wood.
Wood Outdoor Bar Stools
Wood outdoor bar stools are enjoyed for their natural beauty and variety
of styles. A patio featuring wood bar stools can be decorated in a cottage style,
rustic style, arts and crafts style, and many other motifs.
Styles
On the subject of styles, many of the outdoor bar stools we sell at Barstools.com can double as patio furniture. An outdoor bistro set offers a versatile look that has become very popular in recent years. Bistro outdoor bar stools can be used at a bar, an outdoor table, or for poolside relaxation.
We recommend purchasing or adding cushioned seats that use all-weather fabrics
to your outdoor bar stools. Using cushioned outdoor bar stools will increase your
comfort, extend the life of your furniture, and add decorative interest to your
leisure area.
