Boraam Augusta Extra Tall Swivel Bar Stool, 34-Inch Review (2026)

Same extra tall design, a separate listing

This ASIN covers the same Boraam Augusta Extra Tall stool sold under a separate Amazon listing, built around the identical 34 inch seat height that puts it well above a standard 29 to 30 inch bar stool. That height is the entire point of the Augusta Extra Tall line, meant for elevated bars, raised kitchen islands, or custom counters where a regular stool would leave someone sitting far too low. Because two listings exist for what is effectively the same physical stool, it is worth comparing current pricing, shipping speed, and seller ratings between them before ordering, since the underlying product specs should not differ.

Rubberwood frame and padded seat

Per Boraam's own specifications for the Augusta Extra Tall, the frame is rubberwood, a hardwood valued in mid priced furniture for its durability without the cost of premium hardwoods, topped with a faux leather seat and backrest over high density foam padding. A metal kickplate built into the base doubles as a footrest, and the whole stool weighs close to 29 lbs, giving it a solid, planted feel compared with lighter stackable stools. That combination of a hardwood frame and padded upholstered seat is a meaningful step up from stools built entirely from painted metal or bare wood seats.

Swivel mechanism and reach

The seat rotates on a 360 degree steel ball bearing swivel plate, which becomes more useful the taller a stool gets, since turning toward the counter is easier than climbing straight up onto a fixed 34 inch seat. Flared legs at the base serve double duty as a footrest positioned at a natural height for the seat, removing the need for a separate footring. Anyone shopping specifically for genuinely tall bar seating, rather than a standard counter stool mislabeled as tall, will find this stool actually delivers the elevated seat height its name promises.

Setup and color choices

Assembly is described as straightforward, arriving with an assembly guide and hardware pack, and Boraam also posts a downloadable instruction PDF directly on its own site as a backup reference in case the printed copy is misplaced during setup. Finish options include black, cappuccino, and cherry, all built on the same rubberwood frame and faux leather upholstery, so the choice mainly comes down to matching existing furniture tones already in the room. None of the finish options change the underlying construction, weight, or the 34 inch seat height that defines this stool, so picking a color is really the only decision left once the height and style are confirmed to work for a given bar or counter.

Before you buy either listing

Because this stool and the other Augusta Extra Tall listing describe the same product, the deciding factor between them usually comes down to price, current stock, and delivery timing rather than any real difference in the stool itself. The height is the main thing to verify against your own counter or bar before ordering from either listing, since a 34 inch seat is intended for elevated surfaces in the 42 to 46 inch range and will feel oversized at a standard 36 inch kitchen counter. Buyers furnishing several seats around one bar or island should check whether ordering multiples from a single listing changes the per unit price compared with splitting the order across both.
