View Full Version : Reasonable Theater Seating

I just finished ordering a chair and a couch from Best Home Furnishings. These will fill out my theater room and the price was more than reasonable. Also, a lifetime warranty was included for the structure of the chairs. The fabric is a microfiber and warrantied for two years. The chair was $800.00 and the sofa was $900.00.

Now, let me tell you something about the chair. The chair was designed for Shaq and is called "The Beast". For your feet to touch the floor you have to be 6 foot 5 inches (which for me means, my feet will not touch the floor...which is perfect. This way I will not have to fight my way out and up, from a chair). The seat is designed like a mattress box spring. The chair is rated for a 400+ person 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, to live in. It also lies completely flat with no rocking.

The sofa is made for normal people and the reclining mechanism feels like hydraulic pumps are working the recliner.

I shopped for 3 days until I came across these. I went through Henredon, Lazy Boy, Lane and a host of others. I did not care what it cost (within reason...I don't need a skin from an exotic animal to "make my day!") but it had to be super-comfortable and take the rigors of a 240lb man. And for this price, I could not do better. Check out the beast...it will blow you away!

Just thought I would pass this on...I am retired (age 48) and do not own stock or am affiliated in any way with any of these companies. Just a theater fan who came across a good buy.

I'm getting more serious about my HT seat search.
