07 Beaver Marquie drivers chair. The lever that allows the chair to swivel is broken. Do any of you know where I can get a new one or the brand of seats I have? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

safe travels all

I have the same issue so interested to see want others are doing. Also just wondering if anyone has replaced the seat and how they pick the one to buy?

I was told the captains chairs in the Beavers are from Villa Villa International Products

Yes, the furniture and captains chairs are made by Villa International. Call Mike and tell him what you need.

It may help to send him an email with a picture of the lever you need.

You might also try this email address. It appears that it is still good.

Back in August of 2008, I had to replace the lever on one of our seats, and I still have the communication that I sent to this fellow. I just looked on line, and they still exist, and even have this same email address for their contact information.

Hmmm, my 07 Beaver Contessa has Flexsteel brand chairs and the release is a cable from the latch in front to the mechanism. Occasionally one of mine will slip out of it's spot if we let it snap back too fast. I can get it reattached by laying on the floor, raising the seat base as high as it'll go and twisting my hand back in there.

My seats say Flexsteel on the oval embedded in the armrests.

Thanks for all the reply guys. I got under the chair and mine did have the cable as described. It had come unhooked. Put back on and allis well. Thanks again for reply so quickly.

safe travels all and Happy Holidays

Fantastic. Ours with the KustomFit had the cable, as well. In our case, the cable didn't fail. The bezel around the lever that you operate broke into pieces. Our coach was only two years old, and they sent a replacement at no charge.

Glad you're back in business, and $$$ equals ZERO! Yay!! It doesn't get any better than that.
