Other Chairs

Dining chairs need to fit the table, the room and the people who use them. A set can look right but feel cramped if the chair arms hit the tabletop or the seats are too wide to sit comfortably side by side. OZ Design dining chairs are available in fabric, leather, PU or faux, rattan or wicker and timber, with a range of colours and finishes to coordinate with different dining tables.

Measure the chairs with the table

Check the distance from the floor to the underside of the tabletop, then compare it with the chair's seat and arm height. OZ Design dining chairs generally have a seat height of approximately 48cm and an overall depth of around 46cm, although dimensions vary between designs. Always check the individual product measurements when pairing chairs with a table.

Allow enough vertical room between the seat and underside of the tabletop for comfortable leg and thigh clearance. If you are choosing dining chairs with arms, check the arm height as well to make sure they can slide beneath the table where required.

For comfortable seating, allow approximately 60cm of table width per person. This gives each diner enough elbow room for a standard place setting without chairs feeling crowded together. As covered in our dining table sizing guidance, also aim to leave at least 5cm between neighbouring dining chairs.

For a set of six, eight or more, measure every chair across the usable length of the table rather than simply dividing the total table length. Table legs, pedestal bases and wider chair designs can all reduce the number of chairs that fit comfortably.

Allow room to pull chairs out

The dining setting needs space around it as well as underneath it. As a general guide, allow 90–120cm of clearance around the dining table so chairs can be pulled out and people can move around the setting more comfortably.

Mark the table and chair positions on the floor before purchasing, particularly in a smaller dining area. Remember to measure the chairs in their pulled-out position rather than only when neatly tucked beneath the table.

In an open-plan room, consider the main walkway too. A chair may fit comfortably when tucked in but obstruct the path once someone is seated.

Consider comfort and weight capacity

Seat height and depth can affect how a dining chair feels over a longer meal. With OZ Design dining chairs generally sitting around 48cm high and 46cm deep, consider how the seat supports the person using it and how their feet rest on the floor.

OZ Design recommends a maximum weight capacity of 110kg for dining chairs. Always use dining chairs as intended and check the individual product specifications and care information where applicable.

If you regularly spend longer periods around the dining table, consider more than appearance. Back height and shape, cushioning, upholstery and seat firmness can all influence comfort.

Choose materials for real meals

Timber chairs are easy to coordinate and bring natural variation to the room. Upholstered fabric can add softness and comfort for longer meals, while leather and PU or faux surfaces offer a different look and care routine. Rattan and wicker introduce texture and a lighter visual feel.

Check the specific care instructions for your chosen chair, particularly in homes with young children or where the dining setting is used frequently.

Pair the chairs with dining tables, or use a dining bench on one side where the layout allows. Mixed seating can work when a colour, timber tone or silhouette connects the pieces.

OZ Design has been part of Australian family meals since 1979. Dining chairs see homework, quick breakfasts and long conversations, so comfort and cleanability should be considered alongside style.

Dining chair FAQs

How many dining chairs fit around my table?
Use the usable space between table legs or around the base, then compare it with each chair's full width. As a general guide, allow approximately 60cm of table width per person for comfortable elbow room, as well as at least 5cm between neighbouring chairs. Wider chairs and carver chairs with arms may require additional space.

How much elbow room does each person need at a dining table?
Allow approximately 60cm of table width per person as a practical starting point for a standard place setting and comfortable elbow room. If you prefer more generous place settings or are using wider dining chairs, allow additional space.

What is the standard height of an OZ Design dining chair?
OZ Design dining chairs generally have a seat height of approximately 48cm, although individual designs vary. Compare the chair measurement with the height and underside clearance of your dining table before purchasing.

How much space should be between a dining chair and tabletop?
There should be comfortable thigh and leg clearance between the seat and underside of the table. Compare the exact chair and table measurements rather than relying on the overall table height alone. For carver chairs, also check that the arms will fit beneath the tabletop if you want the chairs to tuck in.

How much room should I leave behind dining chairs?
As a general guide, allow around 90–120cm between the dining table and surrounding walls or furniture. This provides space to pull chairs out and move around the setting. Busy walkways may benefit from more clearance.

What is the weight capacity of OZ Design dining chairs?
OZ Design recommends a maximum weight capacity of 110kg for dining chairs. Check the individual product information where applicable and always use the chair as intended.

What dining chair material is easiest for a family home?
The best option depends on your household and the care requirements of the individual chair. Consider how frequently the chairs will be used and review the cleaning instructions for fabric, leather, PU or faux finishes, timber and woven materials before deciding.
