I’ve been tinkering with my budget and decided to get better chairs. What’s the best 9 chairs $500 can buy? For simplicity’s sake, let’s assume new/matching chairs that can be conveniently stored when not in use. Which brands/companies should I look into?

Describe conveniently stored. You're choices are limited at the approximately $50 per chair price point. Costco and Sams offer chairs like these:

Not sure what your living arrangements are, is there an attic or basement? Apartment?

Good question. I guess it would be great if I can stack or fold them to be tucked away in a closet.
 
If you’re not opposed to used, plenty of PCF members have scoured Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace for banquet chairs, and you may even get lucky and find some Gasser chairs.
++1 this ^^^^ you can score some great chairs for cheap.

If you want new, I have had great luck with "church chairs." They seem to be a bit more expensive then I remember, but worth looking in to. Two recommendations:

1. Go with the wider 21" wide seat option.
2. If available, go with thicker foam. 2" and 3" foam flattened after a couple of years for me, but the 4" thick ones I have held up great.

Good luck!!

Great to know, thank you!
 
+1 on Craigslist etc wedding, functions, companies closing etc you’ll likely find someone trying to offload them at a big discount
 
Be patient and find banquet chairs on FB marketplace, Craigslist, etc. Should be able to get them for anywhere between $20 and $40 in great condition
