Using these dining chairs is simple. Just place them wherever you need seating - in your restaurant, café, kitchen, or dining room. Since they come fully assembled, you can start using them right away. When it comes to cleaning, if there are any spills, just grab a damp cloth and wipe them off. As for maintenance, avoid placing the chairs in direct sunlight for long periods to prevent the walnut finish from fading. Also, make sure not to overload the chairs beyond their 500 lb. seating capacity. Periodically check the metal wood screw reinforcements to ensure they are tight and the chair remains stable. The protective floor glides are there to protect your floors, so don't remove them. With proper care, these chairs will serve you well for a long time.
