Dining Chairs in Portland, OR

Shopping for dining chairs near you? What's New Furniture carries over 115 dining chairs at our showroom on 439 SE Grand Ave — upholstered side chairs, wood dining chairs, benches, and host chairs in both new and consigned options. Whether you're replacing a worn set, adding seats to a growing table, or furnishing a new dining room, we have the selection and the expertise to help you find the right fit.

Types of Dining Chairs We Carry

• Upholstered Side Chairs — Fabric or leather seats with padded backs. The most popular style for everyday comfort. Available in performance fabrics from New Pacific Direct, Stanton, and other brands.
• Wood Dining Chairs — Solid hardwood frames in oak, walnut, mango, and acacia. Ladder-back, Windsor, and slat-back styles.
• Host & Arm Chairs — Larger chairs with armrests, typically placed at the head and foot of the table. Wing-back, captain's chair, and parsons styles.
• Dining Benches — Backless or low-back seating for one side of the table. Saves space and seats more people — excellent for families and casual dining rooms.
• Rattan & Woven Chairs — Natural fiber seating in boho, coastal, and eclectic styles. Our NPD collection includes genuine rattan weaving — not printed faux texture.
• Consigned Dining Chairs — Pre-owned sets from brands like West Elm, Pottery Barn, Room & Board, and Restoration Hardware. New arrivals land weekly.

How to Choose Dining Chairs

Match the seat height to your table. Standard dining tables are 30 inches high — pair with chairs that have a 17–19 inch seat height. For raised tables and kitchen islands, browse our bar and counter stools (26" for counter height, 30" for bar height).

Allow 24 inches per chair. Measure your table length and divide by 24 to get your maximum chair count. A 72-inch table comfortably seats 6. If you go wider with armchairs, allow 26–28 inches each.

Upholstered vs. wood depends on your life. Families with young kids benefit from performance fabric or wipeable leather. Households without spill risk can enjoy open-weave fabrics and lighter colors. Our team can guide you to the right material for your situation.

Mix, don't match. Matching sets are fine, but mixing a wood side chair with an upholstered host chair adds personality. Different chairs in the same color family or wood tone read as intentional. Come to the showroom and we'll help you put a mix together.
