Before heading out to make any major purchases, it is always to good make some sort of a checklist; this is just as true for dining chairs as it is for white goods, electrics or anything else.

You first have to make the decision as to whether you want your chairs to match exactly that of your existing table. If new, or even if a few years old, it may be worth seeing if the chairs can be altered, or a different size bought before seeking complete replacements.

If this isn't practical, or simply not to your liking, certainly be sure to take a picture of your current table along to help make your decision; even if going for something with a slightly different look.

Next on your checklist of essentials things to look for should be the material; both of the dining chairs themselves, and the materials used for the backing and seat covering.

If you have a young family, or perhaps are hands on grandparents, you may find it useful to have something strong and resilient. Ease of cleaning should also be important of course; spillages will in all likelihood occur at frequent intervals!

For those without such 'trivialities' to concern themselves with; you could elect to go for something with a little more sophistication. Some luxurious materials are available and you will be spoilt for choice; color and feel.

The frames of the chairs will also need to match up to the toughness of the upholstery as desired. For those not needing to worry; delicately carved woods can be bought for a reasonable price, though cheaper more durable woods are practical and long lasting for frequent usage, and can be exquisitely carved themselves.

Other than these basics, your choice is very much down to your personality and imagination.

A look that can work in many settings is to have a range of different chairs. Particularly good to add accent colors to; a neutral room with pine furniture, glassware and minimalistic features can really be lifted and give a comfortable twist to a modern space. Just be sure you get the heights of each chair more or less right!

There are other factors to consider of course; many driven by your lifestyle and how you live your life. For example, arms on dining chairs are not often necessary; but can be excellent for those extended conversations about the latest Administration policy over an espresso.

Whatever choice you go for; be sure to check all the details; the warranty, the guarantee and so on. Reliable and conscientious companies will offer extended policies as standard. There are other things to consider, but these are the most important. Get these right, and you should be sitting pretty in your new dining chairs.
