Cheap but comfortable viewing chair?

DB · 06-28-09, 05:51 PM

I'm looking for an inexpensive ($150 max, sub $100 even better) but comfortable DVD viewing chair. I already own an ottomon so the chair doesn't have to have its own. Any recommendations?

I don't have specific recommendations. But I looked at Ikea. And believe it or not, you might check out the theater seating at Kmart (but I don't think it is $150).

Poäng at Ikea. Start under $100. You'd be surprised. They're actually quite comfortable. I've seen people put rows of them in for theater seating in dedicated theater rooms.

I have 2, although not in the theater.

I had a terrible experience with the Kmart theater seating. The material was a cheap bonded leather. At that price it is going to be difficult to find something worthwhile. There are better options for a few hundred dollars more that will stand the test of time.

Thanks for everyone's input so far. That Ikea chair looks like a good possibility. If anyone else has suggestions, please add 'em. Thanks again.
