Faux leather is a good material for a dining chair for several reasons. It is often less expensive than genuine leather and considered much easier to clean and maintain. Faux leather is also resistant to spills and stains, making it an extremely practical choice for a dining chair. High-quality faux leather is a durable material that will hold up well over time. Its many benefits include:
- Budget friendly
- Smooth, consistent fabric
- Broad range of colours
- Low maintenance
- Scratch and fade resistant
- No animal products
Faux leather bar stools are easy to clean and maintain, which is why so many people are drawn to this material. It's important to regularly clean and dust your chairs to prevent dirt and debris from accumulating, especially in busy households. Cleaning is as simple as wiping clean with a damp cloth. One important thing to note is that you should avoid using abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the faux leather surface. For more information, watch the easy-to-follow instructions on our buying guide videos.
To protect your faux leather dining chairs, you can use a protective spray specifically designed for faux leather. This spray can help repel spills and stains. To prevent the material from potentially drying out or cracking over time, there are also faux leather conditioners available. Be sure to follow the instructions on the product carefully and test it on a small, inconspicuous area of the chair first to ensure that it doesn't cause any discoloration or damage.

Faux leather, also known as synthetic leather or leatherette, is a man-made fabric designed to imitate the look and, to some extent, the feel of real leather. It is typically made from a variety of materials, including polyurethane (PU) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Faux leather is an affordable alternative to real leather and widely used in furniture, clothing, and other products. It’s also popular with those who wish to move away from animal products like leather, which is derived from the hide or skin of animals.
Yes, faux leather, PU leather, and some coated fabrics are designed for easy maintenance—ideal for families or high-traffic dining areas.
