The four Flexsteel chairs ( two at the dining table plus driver and passenger) in my 2001 BF are looking pretty worn. I am investigating solutions. I cannot afford replacement. I have not obtained a reupholsrery estimate but have ruled it out thinking it would most likely be almost as much as new. I’ve found seat covers that may work but are not perfect matches.

If anyone has had their chairs reupholstered or purchased seat covers please post your comments. If you have replaced your chairs let me know the details. Other suggestions are welcomed.

Re: Flexsteel Captain Chairs
Here are some thoughts, Dallas...
You might check with Colaw's salvage yard and see what they have in stock.
You might call Flexsteel and see what it would cost to have the chairs rebuilt.
And last, Indiana is chock full of RV equipment liquidation places; you might see what you can find there too...
