Has anyone seen these seats in person? The price seems fair and I much prefer microfiber over leather. Does anyone know who the manufacturer is and what kind of chairs these would be similar to in size? (Berk 088's or larger like 090's?)

They look nice, but I haven't seen them in person. Those seats seem kind of pricey. I got 4 Berkline's for less with an upgraded leather. I'm pretty sure Berkline has a microfiber option. One thing I hadn't thought about when I purchased my seats, until I read it here on the forum, is that microfiber can soak up smells, like popcorn, and become unbearable after only a short time. That made my choice of going with a nice soft leather over microfiber pretty easy.

Not to mention that Microfiber burns FAST! I saw a Discovery channel special that compared microfiber to leather when it comes to house fires.....
They had two rooms identical except for the couches. They threw a pack of burning matches on both and the microfiber couch was ENGULFED in flames within 4 min. The leather couch didn't catch fire until 15 min!
I'll take the leather! ;-)
And check with Roman for Berklines.....he's a great guy and has excellent prices!

I've seen the couches at Costco. They are very nice in person. I'm uncertain who makes them.
