CHIDOCHILO Swivel Bar Stools, 24-Inch

If your kitchen island is a gathering spot, a swiveling stool can make turning to talk or reach the counter easier than getting up and moving a fixed seat. These CHIDOCHILO bar stools are listed at 24 inches high and intended for counters from 36 to 39 inches, with a backrest, footrest, and armless design for a compact counter-height setup.

The brown PU upholstery and bentwood styling give them a more finished look than a basic backless stool. Keep in mind that the listed counter-height range is specific, choosing without that measurement could leave the seat uncomfortably high or low.

Key points

The seat swivels 360 degrees, which is useful when someone at the island wants to turn toward the room or reach across the counter without dragging the stool. A backrest and footrest add support compared with a simple backless seat, while the armless profile leaves the sides open. The listed overall dimensions are 20.1 x 19.7 x 36.2 inches, so allow for the stool’s footprint as well as room to sit and turn.

The frame is described as solid wood, with high-density sponge cushioning and PU leather upholstery. The listing gives a 300-pound support capacity. Leveling feet are included to help balance the stool on uneven flooring, though they do not replace checking that the floor and stool are positioned securely.

Cleaning & care

PU upholstery is intended to be wiped clean with a damp cloth or wet tissue when a stain appears. That keeps routine care straightforward for a breakfast bar where spills are more likely than on a rarely used dining seat. The product information describes the covering as waterproof and wear-resistant, but it does not provide details about specific cleaners or long-term care. Stick to the stated wipe-clean approach rather than assuming a particular chemical treatment is suitable.

Practical tips

Before ordering, measure from the floor to the underside or top of your counter and compare it with the stated 36-to-39-inch range. For a quick fit check, imagine pulling the stool in, sitting down, and resting your feet on the footrest, the swivel should make it easier to turn toward someone across the kitchen without shifting the whole base. If you are replacing a fixed stool, the turning seat is the main difference in everyday use. If you prefer a seat that stays facing one direction, that movement may be unnecessary.

Assembly instructions, hardware, and tools are listed as included, along with a video tutorial. A solid pick if you want counter-height seating with a backrest and a wipe-clean surface. Not the best choice if you need a different height or prefer an upholstered seat without a swivel mechanism.

Practical doubts

Does the seat rotate? Yes. The product description specifies a 360-degree swivel.

Can the stool be balanced on uneven flooring? Leveling feet are included to help maintain balance on an uneven surface.

What is the stated weight capacity? The listing specifies support for up to 300 pounds.

Buying verdict

These stools make the most sense for a kitchen island or counter that falls within the stated height range, especially if people often turn between the counter and the rest of the room. The backrest, footrest, and swivel offer more than a basic backless stool, while the PU covering keeps cleanup simple after everyday messes. Skip them if your counter does not match the listed range or you want a fixed seat, those priorities matter more than the bentwood look.
