These Dining Chair Cushions Can make Working From Your Kitchen Table WAY More Comfortable
Dining chairs should be comfortable and inviting for family and friends to gather around the table. The best dining chair cushions make those seats an even better place to sit while also preserving your chairs. With several sets, cushions even make it easy to switch up your home's look.
Some people prefer dining seat cushions to padded chairs because they're easier to clean. If you live with messy eaters, definitely consider one of the machine-washable picks over those you can only spot clean.
Many seat cushions stay put with ties that secure to the chair along with nonslip bottoms that are sturdy enough to grip the chair's seat; others only have nonslip bottoms without ties. Ties or no ties, the decision largely comes down to decorating taste, but for squirmy guests, the ties add a little extra security.
Most cushions are at least a couple inches thick for comfort and many are tufted for an even fluffier look and feel. You'll find a few that are thinner, and thus less conspicuous.
No matter which cushion you choose, be sure to measure your chairs first. I've listed each pick's dimensions to help make sure it fits your chairs before buying.
