My wife an I have started to look for a home theater sofa that still has a "living room" look. Looking for leather and pretty high quality. Motorized recline seat and headrest is a must. Anyone out there recently buy something as described? Thanks.

Lots of choices. I just moved the old (probably about 8 years old) Palliser power recliners (modular design so you can add more and they come is straight or curved rows) to a secondary system and am waiting for the new ones for the living room (probably 4-6 weeks). There are other brands too.

Thanks Phil, it sounds like you are happy with the performance and durability of this brand then. I'll check them out.

How many seats do you want? Love seat? Couch? Individual?

FYI, if you have a Costco near you, they may have a Love seat & Couch that aren't too expensive and seem pretty comfortable. Dark brown Leather. Power, cup holders, & remote control compartment.

(That is, they are available at a couple of the Central Coast Costco's near me. Unknown if they are everywhere.)

Sofa with 3 or 4 seats, not individual. Most can configure the placement of arms to be either a group of seats or a sofa. We have plenty of Costco's nearby so I'll have a look. We don't want to replace the sofa in 4 or 5 years so pretty adamant about the quality. Thanks Much.

Sam's Club also has a sectional they sell that is nicely priced. Catnapper products are very comfortable to sit in. Unfortunately the furniture store near that carries them does not have a good reputation. I've also owned Flexsteel. Very well made. I didn't own a power one but had a recliner with own arm that was about a seat and a half wide (and was made to mate with another piece. Had a space problem in the old house with a gas fireplace on one side and an opening to the kitchen on the other. I finished the basement and move the Flexsteel down there and it was really easy to fall asleep in it. I ended up getting the Palliser recliners, one without an arm and one with one arm as that was all I could fit in the space in the old house. The new Palliser ones coming in 5 weeks or so have one unit with an arm on each side and one with an arm on one side. I moved a small side table (with drawers) with the old recliners into the other room and took out the table I had in there (like this - https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m12496639927/?gclsrc=aw.ds&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=1822972057&utm_content=t0&adgroup=66362389821&network=g&device=c&merchant_id=133291422&product_id=m12496639927&product_id=297362935391&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI0ajE6YrK5wIVBqSzCh1kTQyIEAQYBSABEgKmAPD_BwE) since with the extra arms the new furniture takes up a drop more space. The new furniture has storage compartments inside the arms as well.
