Advantages of plastic kitchen chairs

Plastic kitchen chairs are very popular, and for good reason.  


  • They are inexpensive – since plastic is one of the cheapest materials to produce, plastic chairs are more affordable than leather or velvet chairs.
  • They are resistant – plastic is resistant to stains, scratches, knocks and shocks.  They are also long lasting and durable.
  • They are easy to maintain – the maintenance of plastic chairs is simple, quick, and infrequent.
  • There is a vast range to choose from – almost all models of designer dining chairs have a plastic equivalent.  Plastic comes in all shapes and sizes imaginable.

Different styles of plastic chairs

As we have seen, there are many models of plastic kitchen chairs.  Here are the different styles available:

    • The classic plastic chair – four legs and a high back, the classic chair lives up to its name.  However, it is more modern than a classic wooden or fabric chair.
    • The plastic cantilever chair – this chair is a variation of the classic chair, except that instead of having four legs, it only has one large leg at the front.
    • The plastic medallion chair – the plastic medallion chair is a revival of a chair from the time of the French kings.  It has an oval, medallion-shaped backrest, hence its name.
    • The plastic monocoque chair – the monocoque chair is a chair without armrests and a low rounded backrest which forms a "shell" around your back.  Its legs are usually diagonal and extend from the centre of the chair.
    • The "bee" plastic chair – the bee chair is a chair whose backrest and / or seat form patterns reminiscent of honeycomb.
