What is the weight capacity of a standard guest chair?

Standard commercial guest chairs have weight capacities of 250–300 lbs. Heavy-duty and bariatric guest chairs are rated for 400–600 lbs with reinforced frames and wider seats. Always verify the weight rating — residential-grade side chairs are commonly rated only 200–225 lbs, which is insufficient for many commercial applications. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, all product listings include BIFMA-tested weight capacity — call 1-800-460-0858 if you need chairs rated above 300 lbs.
