Can the backing be left off? I am looking for just the stool part.

The back is permanently attached so it would have to be unwelded to remove it.

As I recall, The back can be left off, because you have to attach it to the bench.

No the back is made to be part of the bench. You would have peg like stubs sticking up if you did not put the back on and that would defeat the purpose of buying the bench.

Yes, that's the way it's made. The back can come off so you can use just the bottom portion if you wish.

Yes, there is a black metal plate that is bolted to the center of the back and goes about 3" up. I can live with that but what is bothersome to me is that when the sides of the stools swivel and hit our quartz countertop, we get noticeable dings. I just keep covering them up with stain.

You can just wipe it off with a damp cloth. We have these stools in our kitchen (high traffic) and we haven't had a problem with them getting dirty. We do, however, have young kids and one of them has ripped some of the material off. Probably not an issue for you unless you have small kids.

The stools that I used this replacement base on also has a backrest.....no issues. Good product.

No it is not upholstered on the back. The sides are finished but you can't have the back exposed.

If the fabric top is removed, it would still leave the peak and metal frame / strut assembly in place. However, I am not sure it can be removed and still be functional.

That would not be comfortable, even if using the stool backwards. You could scoot back farther so the legs are closer, the legs would not be together.

The back is a single panel (made of who knows what?) finished in exactly the same finish as the rest of the piece, so having the back in view should not be a problem.

Yes, I'm sure it can be left off. It was screwed into the legs in the pre-cut hole on the inside corner of the legs. So the hole would show if you don't put on the bottom piece. Could paint it dark to be less noticeable. It's cute w/ the bottom piece, but yes ... more dust .... alas!

I would like to know the answer to that question, also. That is what I don't like about the ironing board. There is no need for the large iron rest & I would like to remove it.

Not completely. The stools sort of flare out at the bottom so they stick out just a bit when tucked under but depending on placement, it is not a hinderance.

The seat and seat back were already put together when it arrived. I haven't tried to remove the back but it does have a knob for adjustments. So, I think it probably can be removed.

You can put stools on the end but they would not fit under the table like the ones on the side. There is room for only two on the side

The seat isn't suctioned to the tolet and I don't think the back part can be easily removed. I haven't tried but it seems really sturdy. We have had it for a couple of months and my child puts the seat on before he goes and then takes if off when he is done. So it's simple enough for him to slip on and off but the blue back piece hasn't slipped off or even budged in all of that moving it. There is a piece that you put under the toilet lid so the seat can hange off the side of the toilet, it's the blue thing on the image on the side of the toilet. We've loved this product and have taken it when we stay anywhere. The seat isn't suctioned to the tolet and I don't think the back part can be easily removed.

There should be a cap about the same diameter as the actual leg of the stool and then there will be another cap inside of that which is not supposed to be removed. It is part of the apparatus that lifts and lowers the seat.

Yes, I'm pretty sure you can set this up without the posts and the mirror. I don't remember the posts being an integral part of the structure that you can't build the piece without.One piece of advice - look into some sort of thread lock for the legs on the stool. They come with a hex wrench for you to build it yourself, but the bolts get loose fairly easily and you'll be tightening them again soon.
