I juts received my set of 3 Berklin seats, and they look nice, I have 1 with 2 arms and 2 with a single arm, so that's fine they all work and are without scratches or other issues. However there does not seem to be any way to connect the 3 chairs together into a single unit?, is there suppose to be a way to do so?, Just wondering, before I call the place of purchase and ask.


Thanks,
ERIC

No they do not connect, they merely just sit side-by-side

You set them next to each other and gravity will do the rest. Unless your model is different than the models I've sat in, seen or owned.

Kind of like a furniture sectional where the pieces just sit together.

Thanks, wanted to be sure, as I know other brands do lock together.

Coasters do not suffer from this design flaw...

Flaw? It makes them a lot easier to tip forward to vacuum up the dropped popcorn. If they were all attached it would be a bear.

I've tilted my berks forward numerous times. They are heavy enough that you don't really notice that they aren't connected.

No joke I tilted mine forward the other day and found Popcorn, M&M's and Juju fruit!

I usually find enough change for a car wash.

And never have a problem with them being next to each other (not feeling connected)

If you happen to put them in a room with wood floors, then they will slide apart, but should be OK on carpet. If you have wood floors, then I suggest Coasters. They are of better "value" (distinct from price alone)

If they are on a wood floor and you run across the room and jump on them, they might slip apart.:D

I can't imagine trying to move my 4 Berklines if they were attached.

OK, unless you are a slob in your theater and need to vacuum under chairs every ten minutes, then realistically how often do you need to move them?

The chairs do recline which should allow you to reach under them...

Eating popcorn in a semi reclined position in a dark room is a recipe for miscues.

In my experience you need to vacuum about once every 3 months.

Vacuum visible floor yes weekly is about right if you spent every night in the theater, but the turning the chair up, collecting the loose change and vacuuming down under just once every three months.

Got to, to pay for the bulbs in my destroyer.

Actually my bank has a coin counter in the lobby you dump it in, it counts, and prints a receipt that you take to the teller. No wrapping and No service charge (unlike Coinstar).

No vacuuming needed in my theater...I just recline and my 2 dogs find the popcorn!

Sometimes people use their theaters for activities other than watching movies...
