Dining chairs for the kitchen and dining room
Valuhub's dining chairs collection brings together upholstered, faux leather, wood and folding seating for any table. It fits a kitchen nook or a full dining room. Each chair seats one person through a meal, and most are sold in sets.
Families, first-time buyers and anyone refreshing a table will find options here. Pair them with dining tables or check the full kitchen and dining furniture range.
Dining chairs at a glance
Types of dining chairs in this collection
Dining chairs here fall into five main groups, listed from the largest. A small number of dining bench options also sit in this range, and more seating lives in benches.
Upholstered fabric chairs
An upholstered dining chair is the largest group here. Fabrics include velvet-look weaves, linen, corduroy and Berber fleece over a padded seat. Most have steel or metal legs, and many have a high or mid back. A modern dining chair in neutral grey, beige or cream blends in with most tables.
PU leather chairs
PU leather chairs have a smooth faux leather cover that wipes clean after a meal. Many are button tufted, with a padded seat and steel or rubber wood legs. Black, white and brown are the most common colours. They suit busy kitchens where spills happen often and quick cleaning matters.
Wood chairs
Wood chairs use a rubber wood or pine frame, often in a walnut or black finish. Styles include slat back and cross back designs, and some add a padded seat. A wood chair fits farmhouse and traditional rooms. Check the product page for the seat cushion and frame details.
Folding chairs
Folding chairs have a steel frame and a padded seat in PU leather, linen or velvet. They are sold in sets of 4 or 6 and fold flat for storage. A folding dining chair works well as extra seating when guests visit. It also suits everyday use in a small flat.
Armchairs and high-back chairs
Dining armchairs add armrests for a roomier, more supportive seat. A high back gives extra support through a long meal. Many have a cushioned backrest and metal legs. Check that the armrests clear the table edge before you buy. Accent styles also work in a living room or bedroom.
Check each product page for exact sizes, seat details and what is included.
How do you choose a dining chair?
Match the seat height
A dining chair seat sits about 43 to 48 cm (17 to 19 in) high. Standard tables stand 71 to 76 cm (28 to 30 in). Leave 25 to 30 cm (10 to 12 in) between the seat and the tabletop.
Pick the set size
A dining chair set of 4 fits most tables. Choose a set of 2 for a small round table, or a set of 6 for a long one. Allow about 60 cm (24 in) of table edge per person.
Measure the space
Most chairs are 45 to 55 cm (18 to 22 in) wide. Leave about 90 cm (36 in) behind each chair so people can move. Check that armrests clear the table apron.
Think about cleaning
PU leather wipes clean, so it suits families. Fabric feels softer but needs spot cleaning. Wood frames need only a damp cloth. Pick the cover that matches how messy your meals get.
Check comfort details
A padded seat helps with long meals. A high back dining chair gives more support, while a lower back tucks under the table. Armrests add comfort but need more room.
Where do dining chairs work best?
Kitchen tables are the most common home for these chairs. Compact kitchen chairs in a set of 4 fit a breakfast table without crowding it. Wipe-clean PU leather or dark fabric handles daily use. Pair them with dining table sets for a matched look.
A formal dining room needs seating that looks polished for guests. Dining room chairs in velvet, linen or a walnut wood finish suit this setting. A set of 6 around a long table gives everyone a seat. Browse dining tables in a matching tone.
Chairs also work beyond the dining area. A single chair with armrests suits a desk, a vanity or a bedroom corner. Taller counters need bar stools instead. Folding chairs add quick seating for holidays and parties.
How do you set up and care for a dining chair?
A dining chair stays stable when all four legs sit flat on the floor. Tighten the screws after the first week, then check them every few months. Add felt pads under the legs to protect wood and tile floors. Wipe PU leather with a damp cloth, and vacuum fabric seats often. Keep chairs out of direct sun to prevent fading.

Dining chair FAQs
How many dining chairs do I need?
Plan one chair for each person at your table. Most four-seat tables use a set of 4, and a long table seats 6. Allow about 60 cm (24 in) of table edge per person. Keep one spare folding chair for guests.
What seat height should a dining chair have?
A dining chair seat should sit about 43 to 48 cm (17 to 19 in) above the floor. That leaves 25 to 30 cm (10 to 12 in) below a standard table. Standard tables stand 71 to 76 cm (28 to 30 in). Measure your table before you order.
Which dining chair material is easiest to clean?
PU leather is the easiest to clean because spills wipe off with a damp cloth. Wood frames also wipe clean with a little care. Fabric seats need spot cleaning and regular vacuuming. Choose a darker colour if you expect frequent spills at your table.
Is PU leather a good choice for kitchen chairs?
Yes, PU leather works well for kitchen chairs because it resists spills and wipes clean. It gives a smooth faux leather look that suits modern rooms. Avoid placing it in direct sun or near a heat source, because both can wear the surface over time.
Do folding chairs work for everyday dining?
Folding chairs can work for everyday dining when they have a padded seat and a steel frame. They fold flat to save space between meals. Many households keep them as extra seating for guests, and use sturdier fixed chairs as the main seating.
