Product Insights
The Oak Lou Stool from TIPTOE is a contract-grade, stackable stool with a solid oak seat and thermolacquered steel legs that resist dents, scratches, and fading, while the seat can be sanded and re-oiled. Its 17.75-inch seat height is for low seating rather than standard counter height, but it serves as a stool, footstool, or side table, and multiple stools nest into the footprint of one. At $305 CAD, it costs less than comparable European designs, though assembly requires a Phillips-head screwdriver not included, and stacking may scratch the seat without a felt pad or cloth protection.
