We’re often asked by customers “what is the purpose of having skis on my dining chairs”? Essentially the answer is two-fold:
- Skis make it a lot easier to move the chair over both carpet and vinyl flooring when someone is sitting in the chair. In other words, it makes the job of the carer a lot easier when moving someone in and out of the table at mealtimes.
- In addition to point 1, skis actually provide extra stability to the chair, reducing the possibility of the chair becoming loose at the joints as a result of moving in and out of a table, and ultimately creates greater longevity.
