We continually get questions from customers asking: “Which BackJack Chair is right for me?”. The answer depends on what you want to do with the chair and how you want to use it.
It’s not so complicated—so here’s a description of the chairs and some recommendations as to what chair’s right for you:
There are 3 types of Back Jack chairs and each chair type is available in two fabric types (more about fabrics in a moment):
1. “Original”—This is also the “regular” size: 14 in. wide x 21 in. tall x 22 in. deep. The original is the most economical chair and was the “first” Back Jack Chair marketed about 15+ years ago. Points to consider:
· Stays “open” once it’s built — i.e. can only be stacked (for folding, see “Folding”)
· Most economical chair
· Some people prefer a bigger chair (see “Extra Large”)
2. “Folding” —The same size as “Original”, but this chair can be folded. It is excellent if you are tight for storage space or if you have to move around and/or travel with the chair such as by car or by plane. Point’s to consider:
· Folds to size about 14 in. wide x 21 in. tall x 3.5 in. deep — or it can be left unfolded, identical in size to “Original”.
· More expensive than “Original”
· Only available in regular size (see “Extra Large”)
3. “Extra Large” —This is the “large” size: 16.5 in. wide x 23 in. tall x 22 in. deep. Points to consider:
· Stays “open” once it’s built, like “Original” — i.e. can only be stacked (for folding, see “Folding”)
· More expensive than “Original”
Regarding the 2 fabrics, there are: “cotton duck” and “tuff duck”.
· Cotton duck is the traditional heavy cotton duck fabric. It is generally more economical and available in 9 colors. It can only be spot-cleaned on the chair frame. It is generally. Some of our customers prefer the cotton duck because of its softer feel.
· Tuff duck was introduced about 3 years ago. It is a polyester fabric, hand washable, and will sustain rougher use, indoors and outdoors, compared to the cotton duck. Its special coating also makes it much more resistant to stains. It is available in 3-4 colors.
