Where the S 160 stool family may fit
These models are identified as bar stools, making them relevant when a project calls for raised seating at a bar or counter. They can also be considered for shared spaces where a consistent stool style is wanted across multiple seats. Before selecting a model, measure the counter or table and check the required seating position: the S 160 collection does not offer adjustable seat height.
For a hospitality or workplace project, consider how the stools will be used throughout the day. Think about the number of seats required, available floor space, and how people will move around the seating area. The listed widths are close, but even a small difference can matter when arranging several stools together. Confirm the dimensions for each specific model and configuration rather than relying on a family-level estimate.
How to choose between S 160 SPH and S 162 SPH
Start with the shell material and overall look. The S 162 SPH has an upholstered, clear-lacquered beech shell, while the S 160 SPH has a plastic shell upholstered in Step fabric. Both descriptions specify chrome-finished frames, and the S 162 SPH listing also specifies plastic glides. If a particular shell or upholstery is important to the project, use the individual product listing to verify the exact configuration before ordering.
Next, compare upholstery and color. Collection attributes list fabric and leather upholstery and colors including beige, black, blue, brown, gold, green, grey, orange, pink, purple, red and yellow. Availability can depend on the selected model or configuration, so treat the color list as a starting point and confirm the options shown for the stool you choose. The listed base colors are black and silver; check the product details to confirm the finish offered on the selected model.
Check project requirements before selecting
Review the listed maximum load of 135 kg and the two-year warranty against your purchasing requirements. The collection is marked circular, but that label alone does not explain the details of a particular configuration; request further information if circularity criteria are part of your specification. Origin is listed as available on request, so ask for it when documentation is needed.
For a final comparison, confirm the model name, width, upholstery, shell and frame details, and fixed seat height requirements. Myntwork offers these Thonet stools on a monthly lease, which can be considered when planning furnishing for a project. Check the selected product information and leasing details to establish what applies to your order.
