A counter-height table changes how a patio gets used: people stand, lean, wander to the grill and back. Most of the tables here are powder-coated aluminum from Sunset West, with solid teak from HiTeak and wood and concrete options alongside. Counter height is about 36 inches and takes a stool with a 24 to 26 inch seat; the matching stools are in the outdoor counter stools collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Counter or bar height?
- Counter, about 36 inches, is the easier choice with children and mixed company and lines up with a kitchen island through the door. Bar height, about 42 inches, suits a standing crowd and sees over a railing.
- Which stool fits?
- Leave 10 to 12 inches between seat and underside: 24 to 26 inch seats for a counter table.
- Can it stay out?
- Aluminum and concrete, all year. Teak too, silvering unless oiled. A cover keeps the top clean through winter.
- Lead time?
- Sunset West builds to order in roughly 4 to 6 weeks; stock tables ship sooner. Free curbside delivery to the continental US.
