Seat upholstery. Faux leather is the entry option. S-PPM and nubuck PPM are polyurethane performance leathers. Camira Era is a woven contract fabric. Screens show color slightly differently than real life.

Base finishes

The Amed Sled sets the Amed seat on a continuous steel sled base, for dining rooms, restaurants and offices with hard floors where a chair should slide rather than scrape. The sled spreads the load along two runners, so it is gentle on floors and steady on rugs. The seat and back are built on a steel frame with S-shaped springs and molded polyurethane foam, and the upholstery is a removable slipcover held with Velcro.

Where to use it

• Dining rooms with wood, tile or concrete floors where you want chairs that glide

Planning notes

• Allow about 24 in of table edge per chair.
• The 18 in seat height suits a standard 29 to 30 in dining table.
• A sled base sits steadier on a rug than four legs do.
• Faux leather and the PPM leathers wipe clean, which suits restaurants and homes with children. Camira Era fabric gives a softer, warmer look.
• Shipping: in-stock chairs ship in 3 to 5 business days. If your seat and base combination is out of stock or on its way to our warehouse, please allow 10 to 15 weeks for it to ship.

Who it is not for

• Counter or bar seating: this is a dining-height chair.
• Rooms that need armrests
• Outdoor use

Care

Wipe faux leather and PPM with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, then dry. Vacuum Camira Era fabric regularly and blot spills right away. Wipe the metal base with a soft, dry cloth; skip abrasive pads and harsh cleaners, which dull plated and powder-coated finishes. Leather and fabric vary slightly in shade from batch to batch.

Frequently asked questions

Will it fit at my dining table?

The seat is 18 in high, which suits standard 29 to 30 in tables. The chair is 17 in wide, so most tables take one chair per 24 in of edge.

Why choose a sled base?

The two runners slide on hard floors, spread the weight and sit steadily on rugs.

How much weight does it hold?

It is rated for 350 lb.

Can the cover be replaced?

Yes. The upholstery is a slipcover held with Velcro, so it can be removed and replaced.

Why do the prices differ?

Faux leather seats cost less than S-PPM, nubuck PPM and Camira Era seats. The brass base adds to the price.
