Using these chairs is a breeze. Just place them around your dining table and you're ready to enjoy your meals. When sitting, make sure your weight is evenly distributed to avoid putting too much pressure on one side. Keep in mind the 250 - pound weight limit. For maintenance, regularly vacuum the upholstery to remove dust and debris. If there are any spills, clean them up right away with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the white finish. Don't place the chairs in direct sunlight for long periods as it might cause the color to fade. With proper care, these chairs will serve you well for a long time.
