Do you love entertaining guests in your home? Do your friends come in all shapes and sizes?

If you answered yes to both of those questions, you know how challenging it can be to find good-quality furniture built ruggedly enough to support heavier people.

Most of the furniture on the market today was built to support a weight of around 300 pounds. If you or someone you know weighs more than that, the number of options open to you drops rather quickly.

The YE ZI solid wood bar stool is an exception to that. While YE ZI isn’t a huge brand, these stools are surprisingly well-made and durable and will serve you well in various circumstances. In the following sections, we’ll explain why this model is on your radar. Let’s take a closer look at what it has to offer.

Key Features of the YE ZI Bar Stool Solid Wood

Simple, rugged, and surprisingly attractive. Those are the first things you’re likely to think when you initially see the YE ZI solid wood bar stool. It’s a fair assessment. This little stool is a versatile piece of furniture that’s useful indoors and out. 

Chair Specifications

Before we go into more details, though, let’s quickly look at the numbers. Here they are:

Scratch-resistant surface, Unique Structure YE ZI bar stool solid wood
  • Chair Dimensions: 13.4” W x 10.2” D X 17.7,” 25.6,” and 29.5” H (three options available)
  • Chair Weight: 5 pounds
  • Maximum Supported Weight: 400 pounds
  • Seat Height: 17.7,” 25.6,” and 29.5” H (three options available)
  • Seat Depth: 10.2”
  • Seat Width: 13.4”

As you can see, it’s lightweight, so it’s easy to move from place to place if and as you need it to. While the seat dimensions might seem small, it’s important to remember that stools like this are occasional seating. Few people would seriously consider spending the day lounging in a barstool, and these stools are no exception.

Suppose you’re a fan of wood furniture. In that case, these little stools are almost a no-brainer, especially given that you can order yours in three different finishes, each option darker than the last, making it easy to blend them in with just about any home or outdoor décor scheme.

The only potential problem here is that these are very light. They are so light that if you have them outdoors, a sufficiently strong wind could blow them over, so it might be best to store them inside when not in use just to keep them from getting scuffed up by the weather.

Adjustability and Comfort

Although there’s nothing adjustable about the YE ZI bar stool solid wood, note that when you place your order, you can select from three different sizes choosing from a 17.7”, a 25.6”, or a 29.5” variant. That’s excellent because it allows you to tailor the height of your stools based on exactly what you need them for.

Comfort-wise, they’re about what you’d expect for a wooden stool, although the saddle-style seat design greatly enhances the comfort. The good news is that if you want to make the chairs more comfortable, it’s easy to add a seat pad of whatever thickness you desire. If you want to take comfort to the next level, invest in memory foam seat pads.

No Assembly Required

Given the simplicity of the design, it probably comes as no surprise that these stools do not require assembly. When they arrive at your door, you will simply have to take them out of the box, put them where you want them, and take a seat to test them out.

Pros and Cons of YE ZI Bar Stool Solid Wood

There’s nothing not to like about these. These are good-looking and versatile pieces of furniture, and if you’re a fan of wood, you’ll love them.

Ultimately, it’s going to come down to the question of whether or not you need this kind of seating. If you do, these will probably be on your shortlist for consideration. If you aren’t in the market for stools like this, you’ll give them a pass without thinking twice, and rightly so.

If you’re not a huge fan of wood, we recommend the Renovoo Aluminum Stool, which is similarly designed and offered in matte black.

YE ZI Solid Wood Bar Stool Review Conclusion

They’re useful. They’re versatile. They’re surprisingly attractive, and they support a lot of user weight. Those are all good things, but they’re also niche products. You either need this kind of seating, or you don’t. Therefore, we provisionally recommend the YE ZI solid wood bar stool.
