Compare Quality

Restaurant Chairs Comparison

As a leading online commercial furniture manufacturer we know we can assist you with all your restaurant needs. We also know that the following commercial wood chairs comparison chart will help you to distinguish between commercial grade wood chairs, like the ones we offer, and those of our competitors, which are designed mainly for home use. This is why asking the right questions, when purchasing wood chairs, is important.

Is assembly required or do the chairs come already assembled?
Were the chairs tested for weight and durability?
Do you specialize in commercial furniture or do you mostly target home shoppers?
Do you have installations in my area or any references?

All in all, when purchasing commercial grade restaurant furniture you want it to withstand the heavy use that a busy venue requires. If it doesn't, you will eventually spend extra money within three years or less on replacing your furniture. Our professional sales team is here to help you with any questions that you might still have.

Still have questions? Call (888) 409-1115.

The wood chairs look very alike but closer inspection will reveal several big differences.

Our restaurant chairs vs the competition at arrival

Our chairs are shipped fully assembled and ready for use, saving you time on assembly.

The durability of our restaurant chairs vs the competition

Our commercial grade wood chairs are built to last and are made especially for use in busy venues. This means using more wood, thicker cross sections and reinforced pressure points with heavy-duty steel. All our chairs' connections are glued and screwed with durable wood screws. Our confidence in our wood chairs comes from the fact that all our wood chairs are BIFMA TESTED AND APPROVED which allows us to warrant the chairs free from defects for 2 years.

A wider back rest provides extra comfort. And as shown in the pictures, our chairs are at least 1/2" wider at the back rest.

Premium Solid Wood Seats

Premium Wood & Padded Seats

For your convenience, we have created a short comparison of the differences between Plywood and Solid wood seats.

Plywood seats are thinner than solid wood ones
Unlike solid wood seats, plywood seats tend to crack with heavy use, which means more seat changes will be required
The beauty of a solid wood seat is inherited from the grain in the wood; the plywood seats however, will have a flat look

Warning: A "Wood Seat" doesn't necessarily mean a Solid Wood Seat. Most vendors will use a "wood seat" when eventually you will receive a plywood seat, which is a cheap product and inferior in quality.

Our Restaurant Furniture vs the Competition

Check with your vendor before purchasing your chairs and be sure to ask the right questions. Call us at (888) 409-1115 with any questions and concerns.

The natural beauty of solid wood compared to the flat look of plywood made of thin wood sheets glued together

Solid wood allows wood stain to penetrate deep inside. This reduces the appearance of scratches and dents in the stain. The glue used in plywood prohibits deep absorbance of the stain and is mainly absorbed in the top layer. This is why plywood seats are more prone to scratch and dent and have a less vibrant look.
