Using these dining chairs is simple. Just assemble them following the included instructions. Once assembled, place them around your dining table. When sitting, make sure your weight is evenly distributed to avoid putting too much stress on one part of the chair. Remember, the weight capacity is 200 lbs, so don't exceed this limit. For maintenance, clean the light grey fabric regularly with a soft, dry cloth. If there are stains, use a mild fabric cleaner. Keep the wooden frame away from excessive moisture to prevent warping. Also, check the joints and screws periodically to ensure they remain tight for long - lasting use.
