Using your Layne Dining Chairs is easy. Just place them around your dining table and enjoy a comfortable seating experience. Make sure not to exceed the weight capacity of 250 pounds. As for maintenance, it's important to dust the leather surfaces regularly with a dry or slightly damp, soft cloth. Don't use saddle soap or other cleaners as they might damage the leather. Also, be aware that the chairs contain nickel compounds which are linked to cancer, so handle them with care.
