I’ve put together a simple comprehensive guide for choosing your first home theater seats. Use this guide as a checklist to go through to best understand which one is right for you.
-
COMFORT IS KING. Cool looks and appeal don’t matter if the material and cushioning aren’t meeting the needs of the occupants.
-
CREATE A BUDGET and stick to it no matter what before you search for a home theater seating unit. It’s easy to blow $1000+ on movie theater seating if you’re just browsing online or in stores for what you think you want. You can easily find chairs that meet your needs for under $600.
-
3. CONSIDER A THEME/PURPOSE. Will your setup be for primarily entertaining friends during social gatherings? Consider the most appropriate set up if it’s specifically for family or kids. Will it be best for occupants to have two-arm, one-arm, or no-arm modular units? How close would people want to sit next to each other based on this criteria?

POWER RECLINING AND ACCESSORIES can significantly enhance your seating and viewing experience. Chairs can come with cupholders that light up and are easy to clean and even have power reclining so you can adjust the footrest at any desired angle. They even can come with stylish LED lights on the bottom and around their rims. I also found this website to be extremely helpful: https://www.stargatecinema.com/kids-theater-seating/
