Our dining kitchen has always felt a bit dark, despite the fact that it’s next to doors that open out into a garden room, so we were looking for something to lighten it up and decided that new dining room chairs would do the job.

So after lots of looking around, a trip to John Lewis where they stock the originals at £339 each  and then spending ages on the Cult Furniture website, we settled on the look of the Eames chairs but were a bit put off by the price. So after loads more research, we settled on the Replica Eames Chairs.

So we renovated the kitchen diner with a Canadian brick effect wallpaper, prepared and painted the top of the old table from oak to a country cream colour and added the chairs. With the condition the dining room chairs were in prior to the upgrade, almost anything would have been an improvement.

But I would honestly say to anyone interested in buying these; they are a bargain to say the least at £58.99 for a set of four Eames style chairs in white.

The quirky, modern edge of these chairs has completely changed the appearance of the room itself. The chairs tuck themselves nicely under the dining room table meaning that the rooms feels more spacious, in turn providing much more opportunity for the natural light to pass through the garden room into the dining area. The light that now floods through the room has transformed its look and feel.

As a bit of extra good news, the Polypropylene seat is UV protected to stop the clear panel from discolouring when left in direct sunlight; so, if they do get left in the sunshine, you shouldn’t have to worry about causing any damage!

Finally, the whole look and feel of the chairs feels every bit as good as the originals and for me, make this set ridiculous value and worth every penny.
