Versatile Seating for Shared Spaces
The Lorell 99864 Bentwood Cafe Chair suits cafeterias, breakrooms, auditoriums and seminars. Its lightweight frame includes a handhold so staff can move and store rows quickly. The natural laminate finish resists daily wear and simplifies cleaning. One-piece bent plywood construction gives a slight flex that supports long periods of sitting.
Tested Capacity and Everyday Headroom
Each chair is weight-tested to 300 lb, covering the vast majority of adult users. The 16-gauge steel frame and 3/4-inch round tubing keep the structure rigid under normal loads. Flex in the back and waterfall seat edge adds comfort without reducing the rated limit. Heavier occupants or dynamic loading beyond the tested figure would exceed the design envelope.
Stacking Limit and Material Constraints
Chairs stack five high, which sets a hard ceiling on vertical storage density. The plywood shell and natural laminate tolerate routine spills and wiping but are not rated for outdoor exposure or extreme humidity. Steel tubing resists bending in typical indoor use yet can dent under concentrated impact. The handhold aids transport but does not change the stack height restriction.

Questions about this item
Will the 16-gauge steel frame of the 99864 chair match the height of older cafeteria tables?
The chair uses a standard 3/4-inch round tubing frame made of 16-gauge steel, a common dimension that typically aligns with existing cafeteria or breakroom table heights.
How can I verify the Natural laminate finish on the bent plywood shell is holding up after daily use?
Check that the Natural laminate surface shows no chips or peeling, the waterfall seat edge remains smooth, and the one-piece shell still flexes slightly in the back without creaking when seated.
Does the carton contain two fully assembled chairs, or do I need to buy glides or stacking buffers separately?
Each carton contains two chairs (packaged quantity 2); they ship fully assembled with a handhold for movement, and no extra glides or stacking buffers are required to stack them five high.
