2025 Barstool Store Reviews

Wayfair

Wayfair has the internet's best selection of all things home decor, and barstools are no exception. Their inventory of more than 33,000 options ranges from budget-friendly to bougie, perfect for your once-in-a-lifetime home makeover or some inexpensive extra seats when your kids' friends all pile in for movie night. You'll benefit from free shipping on all orders over $49, and don't forget to check out the hundreds (or thousands) of customer ratings if you're having trouble deciding which barstools are the best choice. The only downside at Wayfair is not having the option to return your purchases for free, since there are no in-person storefronts here. However, in every other way, Wayfair is the perfect place to shop for barstools, once again earning the #1 spot on our list.

Home Depot

Home Depot offers over 4,300 barstools in a wide range of styles and prices, from budget-friendly basics to higher-end designs. Their filtering tools make it easy to narrow down your search by height, material, and availability, with many barstools eligible for free in-store pickup or delivery. Customer reviews on popular styles make it easy to pick chairs that are made to last (or to spot ones to avoid), and returns are hassle-free - just check whether your selection has a 30- or 90-day return window. With its competitive pricing and convenient shopping features, Home Depot should be one of the first retailers you consider when buying barstools.

Arhaus

If you're looking for high-end barstools with a unique, artisan touch, Arhaus has a selection worth considering. With about 50 designs, their barstools stand out from mass-produced, often unattractive other options, but you won't find anything under $300. While the 5-year warranty is a plus, the 14-day return window comes with a 10% restocking fee, and shipping is a hefty $299. Arhaus has an "A+” BBB rating, but outside feedback points to some frustrations with customer service and warranty claims. If you're set on having luxury barstools, Arhaus could work for you.

Walmart

Walmart makes it easy to find budget-friendly barstools, offering over 5,200 options with most priced under $300 - including sets of 2 or more for extra savings. You'll want to use the filters to narrow down your choices, and many barstools come with hundreds of customer reviews to help guide your decision. Free shipping is available on numerous models, and returns are typically allowed for up to 90 days, sometimes even in-store. Just be sure to check whether your order is fulfilled by Walmart or a third-party seller, because that can affect return policies and shipping times. With a wide selection, competitive pricing, and easy returns, Walmart is a surprisingly good choice for affordable barstools.

Frontgate

Frontgate offers a modest selection of about 50 barstools, with prices starting at $149.97 and climbing to well over $900 depending on the customizations you select. While most barstools qualify for free shipping, long delivery wait times and high return shipping fees could be frustrating if you're in a hurry or change your mind. The 90-day return policy and 1-year warranty are pluses, but customer feedback is mixed - many shoppers report quality issues, unexpected delays, and difficulties with returns. That said, some barstools have glowing reviews from 100+ verified buyers, so if you find a well-rated option at Frontgate, it might be worth considering. Just don't expect the smoothest post-purchase experience here.

Overstock

Overstock has been a go-to for discount furniture since 1999, offering a wide selection of home goods with frequent deals and free shipping. After acquiring Bed Bath & Beyond in 2023, the two brands now operate under Beyond, Inc., with overlapping inventories but separate identities. Overstock's barstool selection is always changing, with budget-friendly and high-end options available, though the availability of customer reviews can be hit or miss. While prices at Overstock tend to be lower than its sister site, returns can be costly, and recent complaints about damaged items and poor customer service have hurt its reputation. All of that works out to a "just average” rating for Overstock as a retailer of barstools.

American Signature Furniture

American Signature Furniture gives you plenty of barstools to choose from, with over 275 options priced between $44.99 and $599.99 per chair, plus free shipping on most orders. However, the shopping experience here is held back by a few key issues: very few customer reviews on products, a short 7-day return window with restocking fees, and an overwhelming number of complaints about poor service, delays, and furniture that doesn't hold up well. Even though American Signature Furniture has been family-owned for over 75 years and holds an "A+” from the BBB, the 900+ complaints filed there - along with over 1,200 Yelp reviews averaging just 2.2 stars - have us more than a little worried. Even if you find a barstool you love here, you might want to think twice before placing an order.

At Home

At Home is a budget-friendly option for barstools, offering around 60 styles with prices as low as $39.99. While the selection seems large at first glance, many listings are just different colors of the same design. The shopping experience is convenient if you have a local store, with in-store pickup and same-day delivery available, but shipping costs can add up - especially with large item surcharges. Customer feedback is a mixed bag: some barstools get lots of 5-star reviews, but the overall reputation is weighed down by At Home's "D-” BBB rating and frequent reports of poor customer service. If you can order online and pick up your barstools in person, At Home might be an option, but we think you may have better luck elsewhere.

Jennifer Furniture

Jennifer Furniture might catch your eye with its 50-year history and "A+” BBB rating, but don't let that fool you into thinking it's a stress-free place to shop for barstools. While their selection includes around 50 options at prices ranging from $70.99 to $623.99, the experience leaves a lot to be desired. Expect long shipping times (even for in-stock items), lackluster product details, and no budget-friendly delivery choices - just an outrageous $374.99 "white glove” service that costs more than some of the chairs themselves. Worse yet, customer complaints about missing, wrong, or defective orders paint a troubling picture. You're better off skipping Jennifer Furniture and getting your barstools somewhere with fairer prices, better transparency, and reliable service.

Burke Décor

Burke Décor started in 2007 as a way to bring stylish, high-quality home furnishings to shoppers who don't have access to big-city design stores. With over 100 barstools in its lineup, you'll find everything from budget-friendly sets under $200 to high-end pieces topping $2,500, all with free shipping in the continental US. But while the selection looks impressive, the company's reputation is anything but. Burke Décor holds an "F” with the BBB, has over 700 one-star reviews, and is currently facing a multi-million dollar lawsuit over financial misrepresentation. Many customers report never receiving their orders, and getting a refund can be a nightmare. Even with tempting discounts and stylish options, this is one retailer you're better off avoiding.
