What does 40 density foam mean on a dining chair?

Foam density is the weight of the foam per cubic metre. 40 density foam is firmer and holds its shape longer than lower density foam such as 32 density.

Is 32 density foam bad?

Not bad, but it is usually softer and can flatten sooner with daily use. For chairs used at every meal, higher density keeps the seat supportive.

What foam do your dining chairs use?

Our marble top dining pages list 40 density foam in the chairs.

Will 40 density foam feel too hard?

It feels firm and supportive rather than plush, which suits upright dining. It stays comfortable through long meals.

How do I keep the chair seats in shape?

Rotate the chairs now and then, avoid standing on the seats and keep them out of long hours of direct sun.

40 vs 32 density at a glance

Density: the weight of foam per cubic metre; higher usually means firmer and longer lasting.
40 density: firm, supportive and slow to flatten.
32 density: softer at first, but can sag sooner with daily use.
Our chairs: marble dining pages list 40 density foam.

When 40 density makes sense

Choose higher density for chairs used at every meal, for heavier users and for long family dinners. It keeps the seat level so you sit upright at the table.

When lower density may be fine

Lower density can be fine for occasional chairs or extra seats that are rarely used. For a main dining set, ask the seller for the foam density in writing.
