Where Can I Hire Dining Chairs?

[Gilly G. Ossenfeffer]

Is there anywhere that rents out furniture on the IOM? I would prefer to replace my 8 old and wonky dining chairs over Christmas before the guests arrive. Failing that, anyone know a reasonably priced chair fixer?

Thanks for any info.

Douglas Hospice Warehouse has some very cheap furniture. Prepare to be there promptly and in bull-in-a-china-shop mode though to get the bargains.

 

Good Luck

Doh! Bet they've gone by tomorrow! Thanks, though.

 

ETA: Thanks Addie. To avoid the scramble I would be happy to rent them for a couple of weeks - there must surely be somewhere over here doing this otherwise I spy a business opportunity! If anyone has 8 chairs they're thinking about selling, pls PM me, thanks.

Good idea - thx.

On the 'House Doctor' she rents furniture from UK suppliers to 'stage' a house to make it more appealing to potential purchasers. Maybe there isn't the call for it over here then. ?

Plenty of fairly plain but serviceable dining chairs at Jurby Transport Museum available to borrow. Wooden with red vinyl seat - circa 1960's style. Thought to be ex-hotel. Open Sundays if you want to have a look.

Thanks for the suggestion but I was hoping for something a bit more traditional, to fit in with the rest of the furniture - something along the lines of these maybe?

Loads of 8 chair sets on here and Island Express are very reasonable for pick-ups.
