Unlike conventional models, Cabela's flip-up design
pivots quickly out of the way when not in use. Rugged aluminum brackets adjust
to two different widths and fit all standard boat-seat hinges. Flip-up brackets
are constructed of long-lasting, non-corroding aluminum. Pads are Soft Touch
foam, constructed from the same material used in car and truck interiors. It is
stronger than vinyl and will not fade due to sun and continued exposure. Colors
to match any upholstery and trim. Per pair. Colors: Blue, White, Gray,
Burgundy, Tan, Navy and Green.

Way better than the other style,February 8, 2010
By NorthernMaineGuidefrom Northern Maine
"I added these to my big man seats in a Scott Hudson Bay Canoe we use to guide fisherman out of all summer in Northern Maine. These are well made and are 10X nicer than the ones that come up from the bottom that have a ton of lousy reviews on here because the are toooooooooo short. These are just about right for height. Rugged and will last for years. As far as all the reviews on here that keep refering to the fact that you can "lean on these" to stand up from the seat . Well of course you cant if the seat back isnt locked in the upright position.................. the seat back just moves forward. The great thing about these is they just push up outta the way when you dont need them or need to walk past them. This is the better arm rest for your seats. Customers really love them and have had tons of compliments on them!"

"the aluminum brackets were oxidized which did not really matter because I wanted to paint the alum anyway. I also welded the hinges on the seat so that it would not fold down. Peter"

NOT SO GOOD,August 4, 2008
By DIMRODfrom WASHINGTON
"I WASN'T TOO IMPRESSED AS USED ON A FOLDING SEAT. IF YOU BEAR DOWN TO MUCH PRESSURE ON THE ARM REST YOU ARE PULLING THE BACK OF THE SEAT FORWARD. IF YOUR SEAT DOES NOT FOLD THE PRODUCT WOULD WORK OK. I RECOMMEND THE ARM RESTS THAT MOUNT FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE SEAT. THE PRODUCT IS WELL MADE BUT DON'T USE IT ON FOLDING SEATS."

calelas soft touch flip-up armrests,June 23, 2008

"The rests bolt on easily but they are set a bit to high for me. Putting any pressure on them results in the seat hitting you in the back."

easy fix,May 24, 2008
By YellowFin
"Some of the reviews were not happy with the way the back rest would always hit a person in the back when ever applying a downward pressure on the arm rests. I decided to drill 2 small 1/8" to 3/16" holes through the hinges and install small machine screws with nylock nuts. This fix would keep the back rest in the up position at all times, which might be a hassle if you need to fold the backs down while traveling but if not I can see where it would be an easy fix. Maybe a removeable pin clip device might work better for your application? Other than that it's the best system for the money. Goodluck! Lyle"

does the job,April 11, 2008
By lingrusfrom Wyoming
"I needed a bit more room in my boat. I have the Cabel's big man seats and when two of us were in the boat side by side it got a little tight. Now I can just flip up the arm instead of having to unlock the seat and turn it around."

ok...,January 7, 2008
By DBcanadafrom WPG MB
"they work but can't be used for support with out the backrest hitting you, I have the white ones and they show the dirt easy and always look dirty. if your just using them for light arm support there fine bust don't lean on them or you get hit with the back rest... can be entertaining watching "new" friends find that out though lol"

Comfort and Strong,September 7, 2007
By LUND1700from Pickering, Ontario. CANADA
"These armrests are strong and easy to install. The soft touch material appears to be strong and durable, but I prefer the older style armrests I had previously made of vinyl and foam."

Cabela's Soft Touch Flip-Up Armrests,July 2, 2007
By AlaskaGobblerfrom Anchorage, AK
"Armrests are easy to install. The product is certainly servicable as is, however, would be better, in my opinion, if the length of the armrest was longer. Ease of installation overrides the problems with the length of the armrests."

Armrests,November 20, 2006
By Evinrudefrom Spirit Lake, Ia
"The armrests were well made, but the problem was, If you kind of leaned heavy on one, the back of the seat would smack you in the back. But I guess that is understandable, since they are bolted to the back of the seat. Unless you are strictly sitting in the seat with your arms on the rest & not useing any force on the rests, they were comfortable, But don't try to use them for support as you try to get up or anything or the back of the seat will fly forward & smack you in the back."
