My wife and I just bought a kitchen set(table and chairs) from Barstools ETC. They had exactly what we were looking for. It looks great in our kitchen. High quality. Friendly, courteous delivery and set-up. I highly recommend this store.

This is a great place for kitchen, dinette, barstools and gameroom furniture. Went looking for a nice semi-fancy kitchen table. Looking for something to be durable, yet look good. We had previously tried to buy something from a furniture store — pre-made, cheap and looking good, but when it was delivered it was a piece of junk. We had to send it back — pay for delivery and decided to try for something completely different and pay more for the quality. I walked into Barstools thinking it was only barstools and was pleasantly surprised. The staff was knowledgeable and accommodating. One guy brought me about 8 chairs from different parts of the store so that I could see the differences. I let them know that we had had past experiences with poor constructed chairs. At least 2 staff members would say«if it ships in pieces, it will end up in pieces» I decided to listen to them. We bought chairs from one manufacturer and a table from another. They worked with me to make sure that how we ordered the finished product, would look good together, be durable and would fit the room. The delivery took the long end of the 6 – 8 weeks, but they said 6 – 8, so 8 weeks was fine as long as the quality was what I was looking for and it is. We have only had the table for 5 days, but I LOVEIT!!! We ended up with metal chairs with a fabric cushion and wood trim. The wood trim matches the wood on the table with a laminate top, the cushion picks up some colors from the laminate. The set looks classy, but not fragile. I would recommend this place highly. The staff is friendly, and they want to make sure that you are happy with what you purchase. They deal with mostly American made products so you feel good about the purchase and the quality is way better than what is made in China. I am so glad that I decided to walk into this store.

When you walk in, you see two giant-rooms back to back, filled with chairs and barstools. Its overwhelming how many different options you have — height(regular chair, bar-height, and counter-height), legs, seats, backs, cushions, and colors(of both the hardware and the cushions). Then you learn that they deal mostly with custom orders — you pick exactly the components you want, and they’ll make them for you. We were just looking for something inexpensive that would look nice at our counter. Nothing in the store was under $ 90 a piece. For a single bar stool. It wasn’t at all what we were looking for. On the bright side though, if someone is looking to finish remodeling their basement into a very nice bar, or hang out, and you have plenty of money to spare, this is the place to go to get the highest quality

They have a huge selection of stools and bar-height tables. The staff is very knowledgable and was very friendly without being pressuring. I took a rather long time to decide on my stools; the salesman had no problem moving stools from one side of the store to the other so I could compare them side by side. I made a special order despite the selection, and when I came to pick them up the staff was just as friendly, and thoroughly explained the warranty and everything. My only negative is that they took a bit longer to arrive then I was told they might. I was told 4 – 8 weeks, or maybe 4 – 6 weeks, I can’t remember now. When I told him that I had a party in a month, he told me he would do a rush order and said that 4 weeks was a possibility. Well, it took about 9 weeks-but I can’t complain about the selection, the quality, or the service, so, 4 stars!
