Using these dining chairs is easy. Just place them around your dining table and take a seat to enjoy your meals. When sitting, make sure to sit back against the slatted backrest for proper support. For cleaning, you can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the hardwood parts regularly. To clean the grey padded seat, use a mild detergent and a damp cloth, then dry it thoroughly. Avoid placing the chairs in direct sunlight for long periods as it may fade the wood and the padding. Also, keep them away from sharp objects to prevent scratches on the wood and tears on the padding. With proper care, these chairs will serve you well for a long time.
