Superdave Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 My two words, Craig's List Thanks Tasdom. I've contacted one of them. Unfortunately, the Elite seats are just that, too expensive for my blood, starts at $1950 per seat. There seats look amazing though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paducah Home Theater Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Unfortunately, the Elite seats are just that, too expensive for my blood, starts at $1950 per seat. I was wondering what you were thinking. About the cheapest you'll find in a well known brand name is the Palliser Magnolia's like I have which at the time was about $600-$650 per seat with power recline and fabric. Otherwise to get cheaper you usually start getting into no-name stuff. Most nice looking name brand stuff is significantly higher. If you like a real relaxed and large feel there is always la-z-boy. The problem with them is that it's not symmetrical, the armrests on the end aren't the same as the ones in the middle.

One thing to ask if you buy them is are they the curved set or the straight row set. I believe they are the same price. I got the curved which I though would be nice, but now I wish i had gotten the straight row. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdave Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 I got the curved which I though would be nice, but now I wish i had gotten the straight row. Why is that? I would think the slight angle would benefit the two outer seat positions... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdave Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 I was wondering what you were thinking. It was worth the phone call and speaking with Chris at Elite. He was very helpful and courteous even though it was out of my scope for this part of the project. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think the slight angle would benefit the two outer seat positions... I have limited space in the 2nd row (depth), and it moved my center seats back about a foot due to the curve. Now my center seats are too close to the rear wall. Sometime in the future I think I will have the rear platform modified to eliminate the stairs in the middle, and extend the stairs on the ends so I can move the row forward a foot.

I really liked their tablet holder, so i found an unmodded (by Elite) one (for real cheap), and we are making it fit our seats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdave Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) I went with palliser, if I had to do over I'd get the elite. Some of the other models like the playback and several others have a hump in the middle and doesn't cradle you well. The elite is molded up on the sides. Metro, I believe I misunderstood the "elite" in your earlier post. I just found the model "Elite" made by Palliser. Is this the model that you are referencing? http://www.theaterseatstore.com/palliser-elite-41952?sc=9&category=149 Edited July 8, 2015 by Superdave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdave Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Did some research on theaterseatstore dot com. They are under a large umbrella company and unfortunately nothing but negative consumer reviews. So, I'll look elsewhere for a seller.

PistNBroke Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 We used http://www.rtheaters.com/ . The owner is knowledgeable and was helpful sending 4 chairs out to us. Prices were reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't need power or armrest storage and have the space, la z boy has some designer chairs that are SUPER comfy. Home theater seating is mainly about the look plus it is a big space saver. There are more comfortable options available. Edited July 17, 2015 by MetropolisLakeOutfitters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdave Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 I went by a La-Z-boy store today, comfortable but kinda big in size. We are really interested in the Seatcraft Grenada . I've order some leather swatches and will make a decision once I can see and feel them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
