Plastic chairs and furnitures are getting popular that maybe in a decade or two they will replace the wooden furnitures. But be sure to check the quality of the plastic chairs. We had bought 2 plastic stools that were good not only for sitting but also for standing on when we need to check on something that is high like the food cabinet. When we bought another 2 to complement the old stools, we were so disappointed because it could not carry our weight. Worse, we might be injured when standing on it and the feet of the stool would give way. That’s a lesson to check on the strength of the plastic furnitures. They may be looking good but will they serve in full their purpose? Now we are using those weak stools as pedestal for the rice dispenser.
I still prefer the wooden ones because plastic gets brittle in few years and a plastic chair injured my uncle. Wooden chairs can actually last centuries. It is weird that non biodegradable materials like plastic is not really durable as furniture.
