Chairs
A few years ago Sherry and I bought a couple
dining room chairs for the motor home to replace the originals. I like wheels on my chairs. These were
pretty large with arms and wheels. I like them, but now we have worn out the
upholstery. We could get them reupholstered, but I think I want something a
little smaller.

Wheels, the negative: In a motor home we must
secure these chairs with a long bungee cord securing them to the table so they
do not run off.
The next ones we want wheels also, but maybe the
office type chairs. However I still like arms. I really do not like shopping
for furniture. Seeing these at a yard sale was luck. I prefer yard sales.
(Present Dining chairs, Upholstery worn out!)
Many times we have 4 to 6 people around our
little table. Smaller chairs will help. I have got to start
shopping around maybe craig’s list, or used office furniture.
That is today’s problem: CHAIRS.
Maybe you have suggestions.

Always good to hear how much you and Sherry walk :) Great exercise indeed!
Clueless about the chairs though. Secondhand furniture store maybe?
betty
I like your chairs on wheels they do look comfortable. I need some new kitchen chairs too. They are expensive and I'm going to be looking at garage sales this summer. Good luck on your search!
Hope you find the chairs you want. Yes, I prefer looking around on craigs list or estate sales but its hard to find some that have not already been worn out. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a site where people could do their camping equipment sales and swap?
Look at Sherry go!

'Gotta be honest ... I love your present chairs' style. Is the cost awfully prohibitive to re-upholster?
I wish furniture manufacturers wouldn't be in such a hurry to redesign themselves every year or so! When we were looking for a oversize recliner chair last year, I realized I was unconsciously looking to replicate one I had from the 80's.
Good luck ... and let us know what you find!
We've had good luck finding like new furniture at our favorite thrift store in San Antonio. Can't seem to find one for my computer though.
I LOVE both of your chairs. The ones with wheels and the ones without. Partial to the wheels. I agree garage sales are the best place to find GREAT stuff.
I will check in my basement to see what kind of chairs we have down there.
I know there is an office chair and dining room chairs. When I go shopping
I will look around for chairs. You are right you have people around the table
every meal...
There are some chairs in the old house but usually by the time they get there they are past thei prime:)
