1. Stakmore Mission Solid Foldable Wood Dining Chairs with Fabric Padded Cushioned Upholstered Seat for Indoor Use, Espresso (2 Pack) — Smallest listed footprint

Listed details: dimensions 21.25″ D × 17″ W × 36″ H; item weight 12.4 pounds; listed maximum weight 300 pounds; material Wood; color Espresso Black.

The first Stakmore is a set of two espresso-black folding dining chairs in solid hardwood with a fabric padded seat, listed at 21.25 inches deep, 17 inches wide and 36 inches tall, a footprint of 2.51 sq ft, equal to the third and 0.03 sq ft below the second (2.54 minus 2.51). The listing describes a six-slat backrest in Mission style, a steel folding mechanism and a fold-down depth of 7.75 inches. The chairs arrive fully assembled, no tools needed. The specs list an item weight of 12.4 pounds without saying whether that is per chair, and a 300-pound maximum weight recommendation. The listing does not state a seat height.

Pros

• Six-slat backrest described as true Mission style, the clearest Mission claim of the three
• Arrives fully assembled with no tools needed, and folds to a 7.75-inch depth
• 300-pound maximum weight recommendation, higher than the second set’s 250 pounds

Cons

• No seat height is listed, so pairing it with a table needs a question to the seller
• The 12.4-pound item weight does not say whether it is per chair or for the set of two
• Its size and weight figures match the third set exactly, so it differs from that one mainly by finish

Who it is for / who should skip it: Pick it if you want the most explicit Mission styling in espresso black with a 300-pound limit. Skip it if you need a stated seat height.

2. Stakmore True Mission Solid Foldable Wood Dining Chairs, Oak Finish, 2 Pack — Largest listed footprint

Listed details: dimensions 21.5″ D × 17″ W × 35.5″ H; item weight 13 pounds; listed maximum weight 250 pounds; material Wood; color Oak Chairs (Set of Two).

The second Stakmore is a set of two oak-finish folding chairs in solid hardwood with an upholstered vinyl seat, listed at 21.5 inches deep, 17 inches wide and 35.5 inches tall, a footprint of 2.54 sq ft, the largest of the three. The title says True Mission, but the specs list a contemporary style. The specs give a 19-inch seat height, an item weight of 13 pounds and a 250-pound maximum weight recommendation. They also list an 8-inch seat depth, which looks inconsistent with a 21.5-inch overall depth, so verify it. The listing says the chairs fold flat for storage with a steel mechanism.

Pros

• Seat height listed at 19 inches, which the first set does not state
• Upholstered vinyl seat with a steel folding mechanism
• Oak finish gives a lighter look than the espresso and cherry sets

Cons

• Lowest maximum weight recommendation of the three, 250 pounds, against 300
• The specs list an 8-inch seat depth against a 21.5-inch overall depth, so one is likely wrong
• Title says True Mission but the specs list a contemporary style, and no folded depth is given

Who it is for / who should skip it: Pick it if you want an oak finish and a vinyl seat and can accept a 250-pound limit once the seat depth is confirmed. Skip it if you need a firm 300-pound rating.

3. Stakmore Simple Mission Wood Folding Dining Chairs, Cherry Finish, Set of 2 — Middle listed footprint

Listed details: dimensions 21.25″ D × 17″ W × 36″ H; item weight 12.4 pounds; listed maximum weight 300 pounds; material Wood; color Chery.

The third Stakmore is a set of two cherry-finish folding chairs, listed at 21.25 inches deep, 17 inches wide and 36 inches tall, a footprint of 2.51 sq ft, the middle of the three. The specs list a 19-inch seat height, a 21.25-inch seat depth, 12.4 pounds and a 300-pound maximum weight recommendation, and the style is listed as traditional. The listing mentions cushions, a steel folding mechanism and a slim 7.75-inch fold-down depth. Its size and weight figures match the first chair exactly, so it may be the same chair in another finish. The listing does not describe the seat material.

Pros

• Seat height of 19 inches and seat depth of 21.25 inches are both listed
• 300-pound maximum weight recommendation and a 7.75-inch fold-down depth
• Cherry finish with a steel folding mechanism

Cons

• Specs list a traditional style, not Mission, despite the Simple Mission title
• The seat material is not described beyond a mention of cushions
• Figures match the first set exactly, so the only clear difference is the finish

Who it is for / who should skip it: Pick it if you want a cherry finish with a stated seat height and a 300-pound limit. Skip it if you want explicit Mission styling or a named seat material.

What to check before buying mission style dining room chairs

Start with the Mission claim. The first says Mission style with a six-slat backrest, the second’s title says True Mission but its specs list contemporary, and the third’s title says Simple Mission while its specs list traditional. Judge the design from the photos.

Second, count what you need. Each listing is a set of two, so four chairs means two sets. At 2.51, 2.54 and 2.51 sq ft per chair, four chairs take 10.04 to 10.16 sq ft (4 × 2.51 and 4 × 2.54) when set up, assuming the listed size is per chair.

Third, use the folding feature. The first and third list a 7.75-inch fold-down depth, and the first says it arrives fully assembled with no tools. The second says it folds flat but gives no folded depth in the text we have. For closet storage, only the first and third give a number.

Fourth, compare seat details. Seat heights are 19 inches for the second and third; the first lists none. Seat depths read 21.25, 8 and 21.25 inches, and the second’s 8 inches looks inconsistent with its 21.5-inch overall depth, so verify it. The first has a fabric padded seat, the second an upholstered vinyl seat, and the third mentions cushions without naming a material.

Fifth, check the weight limit. The first and third list 300 pounds, the second 250 pounds. Item weights are 12.4, 13 and 12.4 pounds, with no note on whether that is per chair or per set.

Decision rules: pick the first for the clearest Mission styling, the six-slat back, and a 300-pound limit in espresso black. Pick the second only if you want an oak finish with a vinyl seat and can accept 250 pounds and the seat-depth question. Pick the third for a cherry finish with a 19-inch seat height and a 300-pound limit. The first and third look like the same chair, so choose between them by finish.

Worked example: fit math for these three options

This worked example is our own planning arithmetic from the listed dimensions, not test results. The wall length and walkway width are assumed example values; replace them with your measurements.

Wall example. Assume 36 inches of clear wall.

• Stakmore Mission Solid Foldable Wood Dining: 36 − 17 = 19 inches spare; centred, 9.5 inches on each side before trim, plugs or curtains.
• Stakmore True Mission Solid Foldable Wood: 36 − 17 = 19 inches spare; centred, 9.5 inches on each side before trim, plugs or curtains.
• Stakmore Simple Mission Wood Folding Dining: 36 − 17 = 19 inches spare; centred, 9.5 inches on each side before trim, plugs or curtains.

Walkway example. The US Access Board gives 36 inches as the minimum clear width for an accessible route. That figure is a yardstick, not a rule for private homes. To keep 36 inches clear beside each product, the walkway between it and the opposite obstacle must be at least 36 inches plus its depth:

• Stakmore Mission Solid Foldable Wood Dining: 36 + 21.25 = 57.25 inches of total path width.
• Stakmore True Mission Solid Foldable Wood: 36 + 21.5 = 57.5 inches of total path width.
• Stakmore Simple Mission Wood Folding Dining: 36 + 21.25 = 57.25 inches of total path width.

Footprint. Depth × width, converted at 144 square inches per square foot:

• Stakmore Mission Solid Foldable Wood Dining: 21.25 × 17 = 361.25 sq in, or 2.51 sq ft.
• Stakmore True Mission Solid Foldable Wood: 21.5 × 17 = 365.5 sq in, or 2.54 sq ft.
• Stakmore Simple Mission Wood Folding Dining: 21.25 × 17 = 361.25 sq in, or 2.51 sq ft.

Mistakes to avoid

• Trusting the title’s Mission label. Only the first describes a Mission-style six-slat back. The second’s specs say contemporary and the third’s say traditional.
• Forgetting each listing is two chairs. Four chairs means two sets, so plan floor and storage space for four.
• Believing the second set’s 8-inch seat depth. It sits beside a 21.5-inch overall depth, so one number is likely wrong. Ask before you rely on it.
• Treating the first and third as different chairs. Their sizes, weights and weight limits match exactly. If you compare them, compare finish and the seat details, not specs.

Frequently asked questions

Are these real Mission style chairs?

Only the first describes Mission features, a six-slat backrest in Mission style. The second’s title says True Mission but its specs list a contemporary style, and the third’s title says Simple Mission while its specs list traditional. Judge the look from the photos.

How many chairs come in each listing?

Each listing is a set of two folding chairs. If you need four chairs for a table, plan on two sets. The listings do not say whether the item weights of 12.4 and 13 pounds are per chair or for the pair, so ask the seller if weight matters.

How small do these chairs fold?

The first and third listings say the chairs fold down to a slim 7.75-inch depth. The second says it folds flat for storage but gives no folded depth in the text we have. The first also says its chairs arrive fully assembled with no tools needed.

What weight can these chairs hold?

The first and third list a maximum weight recommendation of 300 pounds, and the second lists 250 pounds. The listings do not say whether the limit is per chair. If the chairs will be used often by heavier users, favor the 300-pound listings.
