I was wondering if that model from Berkline was discontinued. I was at The Great Escape, they had Berklines under different names. Got a quote for 4 chairs, he looked up the number, and said it was the 194 and would match any price I could find on the internet. Got home and looked, can't find much info, looks like it's discontinued. Anyone know for sure? What chairs are similar? I's 6'6" and need a big chair.

Yes, the Berkline 194 has recently been dropped. Take a look at the 094. It is the same seat, but without the power and massage that came standard with the 194. The 094 has the same dimensions, same back, same storage and removable tray tables.

Thanks. I should have done more research before I posted. The store we were at was The Great Escape. They had them under a different name, the Academy/Hollywood Star. The salesman said Berkline will still make these under this name for them because of the popularity. Not sure if I believe that.

Also consider the Berkline 187 which is the same as the 094 without the fold out tray and in arm storage..... did I forget to mention that they are also a few hundred cheaper per seat... The 197 also has the tall frame like the 094s. This is what I ordered and now waiting for delivery.
