What makes the Laela side chair set special
Construction & Materials
We build the Laela side chairs with materials selected for both beauty and longevity. The solid wood leg frame provides structural integrity that engineered wood alternatives simply cannot match, ensuring your chairs remain stable and wobble-free even after years of regular use. Our espresso finish undergoes a multi-step application process that protects the wood from moisture, scratches, and everyday wear.
The upholstery combines durability with comfort through a linen-blend fabric that resists pilling and fading while maintaining a soft, inviting texture. Beneath the fabric, high-density foam cushioning offers firm yet comfortable support that won’t flatten or lose shape over time. We reinforce stress points with double stitching and use corner blocking in the seat construction to prevent loosening at the joints.
Dimensions & Fit
The Laela side chairs measure 18.5 inches wide, 22 inches deep, and 38 inches tall, with a seat height of 18 inches from the floor. This standard dining chair height pairs perfectly with tables ranging from 28 to 30 inches tall, which covers the vast majority of dining tables on the market today. The 18.5-inch width provides ample seating room without excessive bulk, allowing you to comfortably seat 10 people around a standard rectangular table when combined with additional chairs.
We designed the backrest at 38 inches total height to offer proper lumbar support while maintaining visual lightness. The seat depth of 22 inches accommodates a range of body types comfortably, providing enough surface area for relaxed dining without forcing you to sit too far from the table. The armless design allows the chairs to tuck completely under your table, maximizing floor space when not in use.
Care & Maintenance
Maintaining your Laela side chairs requires minimal effort while preserving their beauty for years. For routine cleaning, vacuum the upholstered seats weekly using your vacuum’s upholstery attachment to remove dust, crumbs, and debris before they settle into the fabric weave. Wipe the wood legs with a soft, slightly damp cloth as needed, then dry immediately to prevent water spots.
Address spills on the upholstery immediately by blotting—never rubbing—with a clean, absorbent cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild upholstery cleaner specifically formulated for linen-blend fabrics, testing first in an inconspicuous area. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive cleaners that can damage the fabric finish or wood stain.

Common Questions About the Laela Side Chair Set
Each Laela side chair supports up to 250 pounds. We engineer the solid wood frame and reinforced seat construction to handle everyday use safely and reliably. The high-density foam cushioning maintains its supportive structure even under maximum weight capacity, ensuring long-term durability for households of all sizes.
Absolutely! The Laela side chairs are available in 2-piece sets, and you can order multiple sets to accommodate larger gatherings. Many customers purchase three or four sets to create seating for 8-10 people around standard rectangular dining tables. We maintain consistent quality and finish across all production runs, so chairs purchased at different times will match perfectly.
Assembly is straightforward and requires no special skills or tools beyond what we include in the package. The pre-drilled holes align easily, and most customers complete both chairs in 30-45 minutes following our illustrated instructions. Each step is clearly numbered and shown in diagrams. If you can use an Allen wrench, you can assemble these chairs confidently.
The linen-blend upholstery features a durable weave that resists everyday wear, though it does not have a chemical stain-resistant treatment. We recommend addressing spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth. For families with young children or frequent entertainers, the neutral beige tone helps minimize the appearance of minor marks between deep cleanings.
The Laela chairs measure 18 inches from floor to seat surface and tuck completely under tables with aprons up to 28-29 inches tall. Measure the clearance beneath your table’s apron to ensure at least 10-12 inches of leg room for comfortable seating. The armless design allows the chairs to slide close to the table base without obstruction.
We offer a 30-day return window for unused furniture in original packaging. If the espresso finish or upholstery color doesn’t coordinate with your existing pieces, contact our customer service team to initiate a return. We recommend ordering fabric swatches or visiting a showroom when possible to ensure color matching, though we provide detailed product photos to help you make confident decisions.
The Laela collection currently includes these side chairs, a coordinating dining table, and an upholstered bench. We’re expanding the line based on customer feedback, so armchair options may become available in the future. For now, many customers use our Harper armchairs at table ends when they want to add armed seating to the Laela side chair set.
