Nathan James Gracie Counter Stool vs Bekrvio Mid-Century Swivel Bar Stools

The Bekrvio set is the better pick for most shoppers: two stools, a 360° swivel, a wrap-around back and a thicker cushion, with a higher load rating. The Nathan James Gracie is the sturdier-feeling single stool, with a flax seat and rubberwood frame that owners of the line describe as solid and easy to wipe down. If you need one stool to match an existing piece, buy the Gracie. If you are furnishing a counter from scratch, the Bekrvio set gives you more function for the same footprint.

  • Choose the Nathan James Gracie if you need a single stool with a firm, supportive back and a natural fabric seat that blends into a wood-and-neutral kitchen.
  • Choose the Bekrvio set if you want two matching swivel stools with a cushioned seat and a curved back for a kitchen island or breakfast bar.

What reviewers say

Nathan James Gracie Counter Stool

Owners describe the Gracie as a sturdy, good-looking counter stool that is easy to put together. Most praise the back support and the solid feel of the wood frame. Complaints center on the fabric seat and on the stool arriving as a single unit.

What people mention
  • BuildPraisedOwners say the rubberwood frame feels solid and the stool does not wobble.
  • ComfortPraisedThe low back and padded seat are called comfortable for meals and longer sits.
  • FabricCriticisedThe flax upholstery is seen as easy to stain and harder to clean than vinyl.
  • AssemblyPraisedBuyers report putting it together in about 20 minutes with the included hardware.

Questions and answers

Which is better for a kitchen island used every day?
The Bekrvio set. The swivel and thicker cushion make daily sitting easier, and you get two matching stools in one order. The Gracie is the better single stool if you only need one.
Which lasts longer?
Both use solid wood frames. The Gracie's fixed seat has no moving parts, so there is less to wear. The Bekrvio's swivel is the part most likely to loosen over years of use.
Is the Bekrvio worth stepping up to over the Gracie?
If you need two stools, yes. You get a swivel, a curved back and a higher load rating. If you need one stool with a fabric seat, the Gracie is the simpler buy.
Do both fit a standard counter?
Yes. Both are counter height, around 25 to 26 inches at the seat, which suits counters about 36 inches high. Neither is tall enough for a bar-height counter.
Which is easier to clean?
The Bekrvio. Polyurethane wipes clean and resists spills. The Gracie's flax fabric needs blotting and spot cleaning, and it can stain.
How much assembly does each need?
The Bekrvio takes about 15 minutes per set. The Gracie takes about 20 minutes per stool, so a pair takes longer overall.
