Need help

1. Where can i get leather seats at reasonable prices (and how much is it for a set?).... I think Nakumatt they go for 200k when they have one of those big sales!!!

2. Where can i get stuff to maintain leather?

3. By the way, what do you good kenyans do with your old seats when you need to change? Donate? Sell off? especially when still in good shape.

4. has anyone heard to these "leather" seats from nigeria? hahaha Well, i know we can get "anything" from Nija but, anyone heard? when i heard of it, which was 2 years back, it was the air hostesses and "hosters" who were in this business....

chek out odds and ends...and i think fair deal furniture

Ebu waambie wanisaidie..... want for the house. not for the car. And if you have some info for the car, you can also tell us.... anything leather but for me most important is seats za nyumbani.... can an average kenyan afford these seats?

@kizee
Those guys will rip my pockets open... just like Nakumatt

wendz

i wudnt be shopping for furniture around now if i were u..ngojea sales usually around juneish hivi, i bot leathers seats at odds for 150k

wendz..we r naring xmas time everytg is overpriced! alternatively u cud ask a pal in dubz to huk u up and send thru a container

Sorry wendz....

1. Seems all your babies are grown up...otherwise ngoja wapate wembe.....hiyo ingine ni story

2. When thinking of leather seats; it is easier to make them frm a carpenter though utangoja kiasi....uzuri ni kwamba you can choose thy own design....i see some people goodle the best designs....take to fundi na kumwambia nataka hii design. then the fundi quotes the price inclusive of all leather material.....you agree....pay deposit then tell you when to pick......To me this a cheaper and better option coz you are guaranteed kile kimewekwa ndani!

3. On old seats.....kwani wendz hujasikia ....trade-in ....hata za seats kuna trade-in.......therefore you can decide to trade in.....

4. There is a fundi who does a good job and can recommend you see him and see his job....ukipenda sawa.....

I hope hii itakusaidia......he also at times accept trade-ins.

1. There are local carpenters who make these seats. Befriend the sales person at the sales outlet and at a 'small fee', they will point at the source of their furniture you could save more than half. I have done this before

3. Old seats can be sold to used furniture dealers (at almost throw away price) Better hand them down to a friend or rela who is starting house

4. Have seen a lot of leather seats sold open air across Nigeria...just like our 'Jua kali' carpenters. I wonder if you would want to go that route!!

Pleather seats!

By the way, what is it with kids and leather seats? If you have kawaida [non-leather] seats, chances are that they will never be cut up. Leathers seats on the other hand is a totally different story. It's like the scream to the tois "cut me up! cut me up! woiyee!!'. Leather seats and tois just don't mix. Anyone who can explain this phenomenon?


Weeee mjuaji!!! Don't mislead our sister.

@wendz - Avoid carpenters like the plague. It is the shortest route to Mathare or Kamiti!!! I'm telling you the kind of seats you will get - after paying the deposit and topping it up a number of times... You will either go nuts or kill the dude! Most probably both. Get ready made seats, if you like them, pay and go your way. That's free advice.

I wish you luck but I don't think you can get good quality leather seats in Kenya for less than 200k. If you get any for 100k please tell me if there are more stock as I know a couple of guys who may also want. Maybe you should find out the possibility of importing them or something. They may be cheaper that way.
