Ratings and reviews
Practical and FunctionalTarirecently purchased the IKEA STIG bar stools for my kitchen counter, and overall, I’m pleased with them. I really like the height—they’re perfect for a standard kitchen counter and feel just right when sitting down for a quick meal.
The assembly was relatively easy, and the instructions were clear enough that I was able to put the stools together without any issues.
In terms of comfort, I’d say they’re average. I haven’t sat on them for longer than about 30 minutes at a time since I mainly use them while eating, so they work well for short periods but may not be ideal for extended sitting.
For the price and practicality, they’re a great option if you’re looking for simple, functional seating.
"Affordable but Unstable and Uncomfortable"HelenThe STIG stool is affordable, which is a plus, but overall, I'm not very satisfied with it. After assembling it, the stool doesn’t feel sturdy or safe to sit on. It wobbles and lacks proper support. Also, the seat is quite hard and uncomfortable to sit on for any length of time.
In addition, the assembly process requires a lot of tools and effort. It would be much more user-friendly if IKEA could simplify the installation process or include all the necessary tools in the package.
I hope IKEA can improve both the stability, comfort, and ease of assembly in future versions. Thank you.
StigDarleneGreat chair for the price!! Actually looks great (all 4 of them)
PerfectErikaLove these! They are quite sturdy too :)
Overall good to sit on.JustineEasy to assemble. Great for basic stools.
Great stool. Great price.ChrisAlready had one, so purchased a second for a breakfast bar. Sturdy. Comfortable. Great price.
SturdyAnonymousThe materials used were sturdy. All parts came in the package were complete. I bought 2 chairs. Assembling was not really difficult. Took me 15-20 mins. assembling each chair. For an item that's cheap, really good quality.
ClassyKathyEasy to assemble, looks good, just the right height!
Cheap but wobblyDavidAs you would expect from the price it's functional but not particularly comfortable.
We have been unable to make it sturdy so when sat in it it can shift a bit from side to side. Makes you a bit worried it's going to break.
my kids love itSarbjeetprice and quality is good
Bar stoolsJacquieAwesome product! These were easy to put together, and are very stable.
Very good quality, very nice price.Frank JExcellent
Nice DesignSueChair is sturdy and comfortable.
I was surprised at how nice it looks.
Cheap not greatPeterShaky, not sturdy.
Good price of value!Eva GabriellaThe chairs work properly. Stability could be slightly better. I liked the pick up point option, it was quick and close by.
Not greatMaggieBottom of the barrel quality. The fitment is both tension fit and mechanical but the two approaches aren't aligned, so it's one then the other during assembly. They advise you to loosely assemble, then tension fit, then torque. The soft metal bends dramatically - I assume by design, so it all fits - but the hardware is single use, so if you fit it snug and have to loosen later, you'll strip it easily even with proper metric hex bits, probably because of low grade metal and poor machinining tolerances. Once you do get this thing assembled, it's a narrow plastic seat, so it's just generally uncomfortable. If you're small, or a student, probably a good use of $20. If you are trying to have actual stools in your home, I'd look elsewhere, skip these entirely. Terrible quality, terrible fitment, and if you look at it for more than a second, it's pretty clear that it's trash. Disappointed I spent the money on these at all.
Difficult to assembleRussChair is rather wobbly l bent the leg trying to put top support in l would advise buying a better quality chair.
Poorly designed. Should fire the desingerSantureHard to install. Uses 5 kinds of screws with similar lengths and even requires users to have an adjustable spanner, which is not a very common tool. Even if it has the most complex assembly process I have ever seen (even more complex than my bed), it is still very shaky.
STIG bar stoolLuceneIt’s great , and good price. But it’s wobbles. Wondering if IKEA or others can feedback how to correct this please.
Good stackable chair for those extra guests GraceBought 2 to accommodate extra guests. It was easy to assemble as long as you follow the instructions, and good enough for occasional seating. Amazing price and it’s stackable so doesn’t take up too much space. Very happy with the purchase.

Material
What is steel?
Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.
Function solution
Choose the right bar stool height
Choose the right height of your bar stool so that it is comfy to sit on, offers plenty of leg room and is proportionate with the rest of your space. Kitchen counters and counter-height tables typically range from 87-91 cm from the floor. To find the perfect stool for your counter, look for a seat height of 60-66 cm. Tabletops or counters that measure between 101-106 cm from the floor, are typically classified as "bar height", and require a seat height of 72-76 centimetres.
