Our Advice When Buying Dining Chairs

content

When helping customers choose new dining chairs, there are two pieces of advice our furniture specialists share most often.

  • Planning to keep your current dining table? Start by measuring the clearance under the tabletop. Not all dining chairs with arms fit under every table. If the arms are too high, the chairs won't slide in completely, making it more difficult to move comfortably around the table.
  • The chair back is just as important as the seat. If you enjoy entertaining or spending long evenings around the table, pay attention to both. A taller, upholstered or more supportive chair back will generally provide better comfort. If your table allows it, dining chairs with arms can make long meals even more enjoyable.

Customizable Dining Chairs to Create a Dining Room That's Uniquely Yours

content

At JC Perreault, you'll find a wide selection of customizable dining chairs from respected manufacturers in Quebec, across Canada and around the world, including Canadel, Huppé, Kaza Design, Mobican, Verbois and Viebois.

Customization gives you far more flexibility than choosing chairs from a single collection. You can coordinate your chairs with your existing dining table or create a complementary look that reflects your personal style.

Customization options vary by manufacturer and model. With Canadel, for example, you can choose from more than 50 upholstery options, including faux leather and performance fabrics, select a wood or upholstered seat, choose from different leg styles, and personalize the wood stain and finish. This gives you many more possibilities to create dining chairs that complement your table and fit the style of your dining room.

Dining Chairs FAQ

Do dining chairs have to match the dining table?

Not at all. A dining room often looks more balanced when the chairs share certain design elements with the table, such as the wood type, stain colour or overall style, without being from the exact same collection. The many customization options available from several manufacturers make it easy to create a coordinated look that's uniquely yours.

How much table space should you allow per chair?

Plan for 24 to 30 inches of width per person. Twenty-four inches is comfortable for most dining chairs, while 30 inches provide additional space, especially if you're using wider chairs or simply want a little more room between guests.

Can you mix dining chairs with and without arms?

It's a popular design choice. Dining chairs with arms are often placed at each end of the table for added comfort, while armless chairs are used along the sides to maximize seating capacity and slide more easily under the table. This combination creates a balanced look while making the most of your available space.
