Using your Stencil Dining Chair is a breeze. Just place it wherever you need a stylish seating option, whether it's indoors at your dining table or outdoors on your patio. When using it outdoors, try to place it in a shaded area to prevent the plastic seat from getting too hot in the sun. Make sure not to overload the chair; its weight capacity is 330 pounds. For maintenance, simply wipe the plastic seat with a damp cloth to remove dirt and stains. You can also use a mild cleaner if needed. Check the chrome - plated steel base regularly for any signs of rust, and if you notice any, you can use a metal polish to keep it looking shiny.
