Buying new Bar Stools? Here are some questions to answer.
One of the first questions to answer is “What is the proposed use of the stools”? Will they be sitting at a breakfast bar or a drinks bar? Will you be eating full scale meals while sitting in them or just snacks or drinks?
The reason I am asking is that stools with arms are very comfortable (E.G. Ego, Doris P, Glamour P, Fashion).

However, they need to be placed slightly further back from the worktop so that you can swivel the seat to sit on the stool without the arms hitting the worktop. This is fine if you are eating a sandwich or drinking coffee or a glass of w**e. But it may not be ideal for a full scale meal, so we have some stools with cut away arms (like the Doris S, Ines, Glamour S).

Also, smaller stools like the Rio, Quadra 2 Adjustable, or Steve.

Do you have plenty of space to fit two stools side by side at the worktop? Our seats are different widths to allow for different needs – Wide or narrow spaces and large or small people.
Another factor is price. The larger stools tend to be more expensive than smaller ones, in broad terms.
I am happy to give you advice if you want, but firstly I need you to advise the proposed use and an indication of the models that appeal to you. I will be happy to quote for the ones you select.
The Doris Adjustable stool is the Ultimate in Comfortable Bar stools. It has a high curved back which supports and holds you in a warm embrace.
