What is the difference between a drafting stool and a counter stool?

A drafting stool is an ergonomic seating product with a pneumatic height adjustment cylinder, 5-star caster base, lumbar support, and a commercial task-seating spec. A counter stool is typically a residential or hospitality product designed for kitchen counters or bar areas — it usually lacks ergonomic adjustments, has a fixed height, and a lower weight rating. For office or commercial use, always specify a drafting stool, not a counter stool. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, we only carry commercial-grade drafting products — call 1-800-460-0858.
