Even if you don’t use the dining room very often, a hard seat is not ideal and will soon have dinner guests fidgeting. You won’t have to raise your budget to incorporate cushioning into the look, but the depth of cushioning/amount of springs will improve the more you spend. Investing in a particularly comfortable design, perhaps with arms, could mean that the chairs can be used as extra seating in the living room when needed.

You could also buy hard chairs and commission seating pads to really customise the look. Tie-on cushions have a very country-home feel, while chunky foam covered in a modern fabric has contemporary style.
