I noticed that, I bought the brown one.

Now I'm looking at Fjords furniture (I like Scandinavian furniture). Similar to Ekornes, but a lot less expensive. They have a few recliners they call "zero gravity" that can be joined together with wedge tables. Their web sight is a PITA to get around, but here's one of the recliners with integrated foot rest. http://www.hjellegjerde.com/fjordsred/?menu=50

Here's a better web sight.... http://www.lifestylesfurniture.com/catalog.php3?category=0000003219

Selfishly resurrecting this thread as I'm in the middle of trying to pick out my seating. I just checked out a selection of HT seats at NFM (Nebraska Furnature Mart) and fell in love with a set from Lane. I'll have to go back and verify which model it was but they are very similar to Matinee or End Zone line. Had power seats, bonded leather and LED cup holders. First week of May is when the Berkshire shareholder meeting is held in town, since my family owns some stock we get a decent discount at NFM so I'm hoping the seats will be under $500 each. Looking around thou these unpowered Matinee's are going for $399. I think I have room for up to 6 seats across in an oval shape but I don't think I want to spend that much money. Pretty frustrating, can't make up my mind what to do. I like that 5 seats would give me one exactly centered in the room but with friends/family coming over I was hoping to have maybe 6 perm seats and something extra (bean bags maybe) for up to 8.

My biggest worry about buying online is not being able to sit in it before buying. Now that I know I like how these Lane seats feel (tall back, great feeling when reclined) I feel my choices are narrowed a bit.

I just found out today that TheaterSeat.com (HTOutlet) isn't going to have me send back the one defective chair I got from them. So while I will have 8 perfect seats, I will have a 9th that I have no idea what to do with. It works just fine, but has some cosmetic issues.

you can use it when your wife puts you in time out.

What happened? did they basically say that they weren't going to do anything about it? Decline that part of the charge on your card... Depending on who your card issuer is that may be the best way to go... I have BofA, one thing i like about them is they do not mess around... I have called the fraud department several times because companies wouldn't deal with me... When BofA got involved things got made right FAST... One of the guys i was talking to said that when the bank gets involved, almost always the company will do the right thing. He explained that if the company decides to fight it.. VISA charges them 5,000$ per charge... There was one company that got my card info and had made 3 charges for 40$ each.... Needless to say i got my 120$ back, as opposed to that company paying 15,000$ to visa..

Try going that rute nick... That is what i would try if i was in your situation.

Good luck man.

Woa.. Sorry.. No they are sending a full replacement. They just don't want the other one back. My guess is that they didn't want to pay the shipping for a seat with cosmetic issues since they won't be able to resell it. So either it goes to the dump, or I try to find a use for a single theater seat.

ah. gotya nick, i miss interpreted what you were saying... Your most likely right, they would loose even more money by having you ship it back to them... Donate it to Goodwill and get a tax write off!!

Or, if you were in my area, you could put it on the front curb and it would be gone within an hour or so..... There are guys who drive around looking for "good stuff" that people are throwing away all the time... I got rid of 2 recliners this way year before last. As well as an old aluminium shed...

In looking for the cheapest possible seats I came across these Klaussner Twilight Black Bonded Leather for $320 each. But again, I have no idea if I'd find them comfortable or not.
