Product Overview: 685mm Classic 4-Legged Plastic Stacking Stool
The Cobolt 685mm Classic Stacking Stool is engineered specifically for modern senior secondary, further education, and commercial learning environments. Supplied with Free UK Mainland Delivery, it is designed to survive the "school test"—constant movement, heavy daily use, and the high-pressure environment of bustling science laboratories, drafting rooms, and art studios.
The Cobolt Advantage
- Budget Longevity: With a reliable 5-year commercial warranty, we eliminate frequent replacement cycles, ensuring your departmental budget goes significantly further
- Vibrant Customisation: Available in 8 vivid seat colours and 4 frame finishes, allowing you to easily colour-code specific classrooms or separate equipment between labs
- Classroom Safety & Focus: The elevated, perfectly positioned footrest ensures taller students and adults feel grounded and stable when sitting at high benches, directly reducing physical restlessness
Ergonomics & Sustainability
- BS EN1729 Compliant: Dimensioned perfectly for Key Stage 4 and adult further education (685mm height), the moulded plastic shell provides excellent lumbar support to prevent postural fatigue
- Eco-Conscious Choice: FSC accredited and deliberately designed to be fully disassembled at the end of its lifecycle, allowing both the plastic and metal to be responsibly recycled
- Space Efficiency: The intelligent frame geometry allows staff and students to safely nest and stack the stools up to 6 high, rapidly clearing floor space for multi-use areas
Severe Educational Build
Classroom furniture must be undeniably resilient. We utilise a robust 19mm diameter steel tube frame coated in a tough, scratch-resistant paint to ensure the stool remains structurally sound and visually appealing, even under severe daily educational and commercial use.
The Cobolt Standard

FAQs: The UK’s Leading School Seating Solutions
Q1: What desk height is the 685mm stool suitable for?
A: The 685mm seat height is specifically tailored for higher working surfaces. It provides the correct ergonomic alignment when seated at drafting tables, architecture desks, or adult-height science workbenches measuring between 900mm and 1000mm high.
Q2: Can I mix and match the 8 seat colours and 4 frame colours?
A: Yes. We offer 8 vibrant seat colours (including Purple, Red, and Lime Green) and 4 durable frame finishes for this model. This allows you to completely customise your order to match specific departmental branding or to clearly identify equipment belonging to different campus buildings.
Q3: Do these stools require assembly by our busy site staff?
A: No. We understand the massive time constraints on school estates teams. These stools are delivered 100% fully assembled, securely welded, and ready to be placed directly into the laboratory the moment they arrive.
Q4: What does the BS EN1729 compliance actually mean for my students?
A: BS EN1729 Parts 1 & 2 is the gold standard for educational furniture. Part 1 ensures the stool provides proper ergonomic lumbar support, while Part 2 officially certifies that the 19mm steel frame can withstand severe physical force and institutional use without failing.
Q5: How many of these stools can be stacked together for safe storage?
A: Despite their taller 685mm height, the intelligent frame geometry allows these stools to be safely nested and stacked up to 6 high. This makes them incredibly space-efficient for multipurpose rooms that need to be cleared rapidly for deep floor cleaning.
Q6: How should my maintenance team care for these stools over the years?
A: The plastic seat and scratch-resistant steel frame can be easily wiped down with a warm, damp cloth and a standard non-abrasive cleaner. For long-term safety, we recommend checking the top connection every six months and periodically replacing the anti-slip plastic feet if they become worn down on hard laboratory floors.
Q7: Are these stools environmentally friendly?
A: Yes. The manufacturing process is FSC accredited. Furthermore, the stools are designed with a circular economy in mind; at the end of their long lifecycle, they can be easily disassembled into their core component parts (plastic and metal) so they can be responsibly recycled rather than sent to landfill.
Q8: Why should my school buy from Cobolt Furniture?
A: With over 50 years of heritage, we are a trusted partner to the UK public sector. We offer Free UK Mainland Delivery, a highly reliable 5-year warranty on these heavy-duty stools, and expert UK-based advice to ensure your procurement process is simple and entirely transparent.
