Frequently Asked Questions About Seating Furniture in Malaysia
What types of seating furniture are available?
Seating furniture can include dining chairs, lounge chairs, accent chairs, benches, barstools and counter stools. The right choice depends on where the seating will be used, the available space and the level of comfort required.
How do I choose seating for a smaller home?
For smaller spaces, consider the overall width and depth of each piece as well as the space needed to move around it. Armless chairs, compact lounge chairs, benches and stools can provide useful seating without taking up unnecessary floor area.
How do I choose the right dining chairs?
Consider the height and size of your dining table, the number of seats required and the space available around it. Armless dining chairs can tuck more easily beneath a table, while chairs with arms may require additional clearance.
What is the difference between a lounge chair and an accent chair?
Lounge chairs are generally selected with comfort and relaxation in mind, while accent chairs can also introduce a distinctive shape, material or texture to a room. Many contemporary chairs can serve both purposes.
When should I choose a bench instead of dining chairs?
A dining bench can be useful when you want flexible seating for several people or a more streamlined dining arrangement. Depending on its dimensions, a backless bench may also tuck beneath the dining table when not in use.
How do I choose between a barstool and a counter stool?
Measure the height of your counter or tabletop before choosing. The seat should sit comfortably below the surface with sufficient legroom, so bar-height and counter-height stools should not automatically be treated as interchangeable.
