Can I use this chair outdoors?
The J80 chair is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to the elements can damage the wood and wicker.
How is the oak wood finished?
The oak frame is typically finished to protect the wood while highlighting its natural grain. Specific finish details can be found in the product's technical specifications.
What is the weight capacity of the chair?
Please consult the official product documentation or retailer information for specific weight limit details.

How should I care for the paper string seat?
Gently dust the seat regularly. Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions directly on the paper string.
Troubleshooting
Wicker seat feels rough or snagging
Ensure the seat is clean and dry. Minor roughness can sometimes be smoothed with very fine-grit sandpaper, but test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
Wood frame feels dry
Apply a small amount of natural wood oil or wax specifically designed for oak furniture, following the product's instructions. Wipe away any excess.
Chair wobbles
Check that all parts of the frame are securely joined. If the wobble persists, it might be due to uneven flooring. Minor adjustments may be possible at the joints, or consider a felt pad on one leg.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Frame Care: Wipe the oak frame with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the wood finish.
