Using your Taika dining chairs is a breeze. Just place them around your dining table and enjoy a stylish dining experience. When it comes to weight, these chairs can hold up to 275 lbs, so most people can use them comfortably. There's no need for assembly, so you can start using them right away. Now, for some important things to note. The chairs contain leather dust, which has been linked to cancer according to Prop 65. Try to keep the area around the chairs well - ventilated. As for maintenance, leather is a tough material, but it needs some TLC. Once a week, take a soft cloth, dampen it a little with distilled water, and gently dust the leather parts. If you spill something on the chair, don't panic. Grab a soft, dry cloth and blot the spill immediately. This will help keep your chairs looking great for years to come.
