What fabrics are ideal for dining room chairs?
If you decide that upholstered or covered chairs are a good fit for your dining room, determine if fabric or leather suits your needs. When you’re shopping for fabric-covered chairs, choose cotton and polyester blends for durability and ease during cleaning. Microfiber is a durable fabric for upholstery and is one of the more stain-resistant fabrics. Leather is elegant and easy to clean, and the appearance improves over time as it wears in and softens. The best type of leather material to choose is full-grain, but it can be pricey. For those who like leather but need to stick to a budget, corrected-grain and suede are easy to care for, stylish options that are also inexpensive.
