What weight capacity should a drafting stool have?

A commercial drafting stool should have a minimum 250 lb weight capacity for standard commercial use. Big-and-tall models are rated at 350–500 lbs. BIFMA-certified stools are tested to significantly exceed their rated capacity under dynamic load cycles. Always verify the rated capacity on the spec sheet — residential-grade stools at retail stores are often rated for only 225 lbs. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, all our commercial drafting stools carry BIFMA-compliant weight ratings — call 1-800-460-0858.
