The Ethan has a clean, modern shape with a cushioned seat, low upholstered back, and slim steel frame. Its fixed seat stays securely facing the kitchen island, while the compact back provides support without dominating the room.
It is a practical choice for anyone who wants more comfort than a backless stool, but prefers a lower profile than a full-height bar chair.
Supportive Low Back
The upholstered back gives you a comfortable place to lean while staying relatively close to counter level. It supports the lower back without blocking as much of the view across the kitchen island as a taller design.
For shoppers looking for a counter stool with a low back, the Ethan offers support while maintaining a simple, uncluttered appearance.
Cushioned Seat and Back
Both the seat and back are upholstered, adding softness where you sit and lean. The squared seat provides a useful amount of thigh support without making the stool appear oversized.
Choose from fabric, performance fabric, or easy-to-clean vinyl according to how your kitchen is used. Neutral upholstery keeps the Ethan understated, while a deeper color gives its straight, modern shape more presence.
Stable Non-Swivel Seating
The Ethan is a non-swivel bar stool, so the seat remains facing forward. There are no moving parts beneath the seat and no unexpected rotation when someone sits down or stands up.
A fixed seat can be especially helpful:
Near cabinets or walls
Along narrow kitchen walkways
In homes with children
When you want several stools to remain neatly aligned
Its stationary design also gives the Ethan a steady, chair-like feel at the island.
Slim Steel Frame
The Ethan is a metal bar stool with back support, built on a sturdy steel frame with straight legs and a surrounding footrest.
The slim base keeps the profile light and modern while giving your feet a comfortable place to rest. Select a dark finish for stronger contrast, a warm metallic tone to coordinate with kitchen hardware, or a lighter finish for a softer look.
A Modern Kitchen Island Stool
The Ethan’s straight lines and simple upholstery work naturally in modern, contemporary, and transitional kitchens. It pairs easily with quartz countertops, flat-panel cabinetry, black hardware, and clean-lined pendant lighting.
Its low back is also helpful in open-concept spaces where a row of tall stools could make the kitchen island feel crowded.
Choose Counter or Bar Height
The Ethan is available in two seat heights:
26″ Counter Height: For kitchen islands and counters approximately 36 inches high.
30″ Bar Height: For counters and home bars approximately 40–42 inches high.
Customize the Ethan
The Ethan is a straightforward choice for anyone looking for a modern non-swivel bar stool with an upholstered low back, cushioned seat, and stable steel frame.

"I hired a handyman to finish putting these chairs together. There were no drill holes for the seat so he used a power drill and he was able to man handle the back of the other chair to make the screw line up with the hole.
Now that the hassle of putting it together is over, I will say the chairs are beautiful and I am very pleased with the purchase.
1 star for long wait and assembly issues 5 stars for customer support and a beautiful and unique looking chair."
