What should I look for in chairs for a reception or waiting area?

Reception and waiting area chairs need to look good (they're the first furniture visitors encounter), be durable for multiple users, and be easy to clean. Side chairs, lounge chairs, and guest chairs are the typical choices — task chairs on casters don't work well in waiting areas. Look for commercial-grade upholstery with stain resistance, a frame finish that coordinates with the overall reception design, and seat height (17"–18") appropriate for a waiting posture rather than a working posture.
