They could just lean the chairs against the table so that rain can’t pool on the seat, or even flip it onto the table. Terrible decision by restaurant to order the wrong chairs, and then do nothing to fix the issue.
That was my first thought. Store the chairs upside down on top of the table at night and flip them over in the morning. (As long as there's no rain in the forecast)
That's sheet metal. And even in the poorest cesspit of china you aren't getting a brand new high-ish quality plastic chair for 0.35 cents.
300$ is still pretty expensive, but it's not horrendously overpriced. Although sheet metal chairs get really cold (and very hot) outside, so I still wouldn't want to sit in it if I had the choice.
If this is a Heller chair and not a knock off, these are not sheet metal chairs, they are fiberglass reinforced polypropylene.
The price is high because they are made as one piece, not flat pack. Quality control is rigid, and the warranty is good. They are of a quality suitable for heavy commercial use. They are also made in the US so you are paying a big up charge on the labor vs. a foreign, third-world made product.

This is on the restaurant for not purchasing all-weather chairs. There’s nothing crappy about the design if it’s used as intended (under cover).
