What criteria should I use to evaluate commercial lounge seating before purchasing?

A rigorous evaluation of commercial lounge seating should cover: (1) Structural durability — request BIFMA test report or compliance statement; (2) Foam and cushion density — minimum 1.8 lb/cu ft for high-traffic use; (3) Fabric performance — minimum 50,000 double rubs, CAL 117-2013 compliance, cleanability code; (4) Frame material and joinery — solid wood or steel frames, mortise-and-tenon or steel corner-block wood joinery; (5) Warranty — frame vs. component coverage terms; (6) Lead time — in-stock vs. made-to-order; (7) Total cost — include delivery, installation, and any custom fabric upcharges; (8) Vendor support — can you get a cut sheet, CAD file, and fabric sample before ordering?
