Choose a Tam stool for the surface
Start with the height of the surface and the way people will use the seating. The Tam Low Backless Stool is the low option in the family. Consider it for lower seating points or settings where a bar or counter-height seat is not required. For a counter, compare the Tam Counter-Height Backless Stool with the measured surface. The Tam Bar Backless Stool is the bar-height choice for taller counters or bar-height work areas.
These names provide a useful starting point, but do not replace checking dimensions. Measure the finished height of the surface and review the dimensions PDF before specifying quantities. If the stools will be used at more than one type of surface, list each location separately and match the model to it. Since the stools have no adjustable seat height, a correct fit depends on choosing the appropriate version in advance.
What to consider before specifying
Keep the material and finish in context
The listed Tam models are backless and have no upholstery. Their base material is listed as steel or metal, with silver as the base colour; product details also identify stainless steel variants. Check the Colors and Materials PDF if you need to confirm available material or finish information for your specification. With no upholstered seat, fabric selection is not part of the choice within this family.
Plan for the seating environment
Backless seating can be a practical fit where users need to sit briefly or where a compact, visually simple stool suits the layout. Consider who will use the stools, how long they are likely to sit, and whether back support is needed. The Tam range has no backrest, lumbar support or armrests, so it may not suit every task or extended seating requirement. For workplaces, review the stated EN 16139 Level 2 standard alongside your organisation’s requirements. The listed maximum load is 135 kg.
Check the details and plan your order
Before choosing, confirm the required stool height, available floor space and number of seats, then compare the product dimensions with your layout. The collection provides a catalogue PDF, dimensions PDF, Colors and Materials PDF, and Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) PDF for specification review. The listed warranty is two years, and the product information marks the family as circular; consult the available documentation for details relevant to your project. Origin information is available on request.
Once your requirements are clear, select the low, counter-height or bar-height model for each location. Myntwork offers these Ondarreta Tam stools on a monthly lease, which can be considered when planning furniture for a new or changing workspace.
