Where Gaber Basket chairs work well
The Basket collection is suited to spaces that need reliable general-purpose seating rather than task-chair adjustment. Use the chairs around canteen and café tables, in staff break areas, as visitor seating or in informal meeting zones. Their fixed format also makes them appropriate for projects where a consistent seat height and simple specification are more important than individual ergonomic adjustment.
The collection can support a coordinated scheme across several areas. For example, an upholstered version may suit a meeting or reception setting, while a plastic or polypropylene configuration can be considered for dining and high-use shared spaces. The final choice should reflect how the room is used, how often the chairs are cleaned and the atmosphere you want to create.
How to choose between the models
Choose by upholstery and comfort
The upholstered Basket BL version is the natural option when a softer, more finished seating experience is wanted. Its beech wood legs add a warm material contrast. Fabric and PU leather are listed among the collection’s upholstery materials, with colour options including beige, black, blue, brown, gold, green, grey, orange, pink, purple, red and yellow.
Choose by structure and maintenance
The Basket BP combines polymer and steel in a four-leg visitor-chair construction. It has no upholstery and no armrests, making it a straightforward option for areas where a wipe-clean, visually simple chair is useful. The Basket PL uses a polypropylene seat and back with a four-leg oak base, combining a practical shell with a more natural base appearance.
Choose by interior palette
Base finishes across the collection include black, grey, beige, brown, green, red, silver, white and wood. Check the exact finish and upholstery combination available for the configuration you are considering rather than assuming every colour applies to every model.
What to check before specifying
- Confirm whether the space calls for upholstery, a plastic chair or a polypropylene shell with an oak base.
- Check the fixed 47 cm seat height against the tables and users’ needs.
- Review the required colour, base material and cleaning expectations for the room.
- Consider the stated 135 kg maximum ballast and the two-year warranty when planning the specification.
- Use the available catalogue, user manual and colours-and-materials documents to verify the selected configuration.
The Gaber Basket collection is also available from Myntwork on a monthly lease, giving businesses a way to furnish shared spaces without treating every seating requirement as a one-off purchase. Once you have narrowed down the material and colour, request the relevant configuration details and confirm availability for your project.
