You are in the market for a
Theater Seating. Besides your space requirements, the first in foremost thing should be to start with a budget in mind. How much can I afford? On this page, we will outline our top sellers by category and we will talk about Al's picks. Who's Al? Al is the President and founder of HTmarket.com in the year 2000. Al started the sales of home theater seating online in the year 2001. He started selling
Palliser Furniture and has since added other home theater seating products from
HT Design his own brand that he developed. He knows home theater seating up and down. I sat down with Al to get his picks by budget and we ran the numbers on our top sellers of all time in the home theater seating category. We have two distinct categories of home theater seating. The category is divided into two parts,
Quick Ship home theater seating and
Custom Home Theater Seating.
You should identify your per seat budget or total budget divided by number of seats.
Quick Ship Theater Seating:
The quick ship seating starts about $659 per seat and runs up to $1429 per seat so if your on a budget you may want to look in this section first. This category has limited selection of HTDesign in stock colors usually black and brown leather. You can choose between manual and power recline. A new line called HTDesign has many included features like power recline, LED lighting, top grain leather, tray tables and in arm storage. The seats are of high quality and at a very good price. The next benefit is the seats usually ship quickly. You can get your seats fast.

Al says it’s a split decision. For styling and softness, he likes the Hamilton with it's bucket seat, power recline, LED lights, in arm storage, tray tables and cool headrest.

He says this “Home Theater seating is about personal taste matching your personality to the seat and your body frame to the right seat. You can tell a lot about a person by what seat they buy.”
I think he means you can tell what size they are and what kind of personality they have. It's really a personal choice based on budget and taste. The custom seating is especially personal as you can select up to 100 different colors and styles. We can help you select the right seat based on your personal choices.
