That is Nappa 20K one the ones you got. Nappa 11K is on the lower end regular version. That is little bit harder and shiny. Regular version also doesn't come with memory recline.
One thing I wish about Valencia I wish the LEDs pointed towards the floor rather than at the TV but yeh you can turn them off ... Just a little gripe really (first world problems) haha but all in all great chairs 👍
Viewers be aware!! Valencia charges $300 per chair when you return. I had to return 3 Oslo XL, because they were just so uncomfortable, way to stiff on the lumbar area.
The Tuscany XL would have been a better fit for your height although it may still fall a bit short. We have a row of 4 of them (loveseat center) and our family is happy with them. My wife is 5' 2" and she has no complaints. They are probably overpriced for what they are, but it's tough to find a good alternative.
Thing I love about Oslo is the head rest when reclining how you can raise it so ya watching telly still instead of the ceiling all comfy and roasty toasty haha 👍 ... Cool vid man! Cheers 🍺 .. Ed
I have my home theater downstairs in my man cave. I got 2 theater seats a few years ago and absolutely love them. So comfortable and beautiful. I don't have enough room for a sectional anyway. But do have a couch on the side for extra seats.
Their warranty is crap. Never heard of a 3 year prorated warranty where after 1 year they do not cover 100% of the costs. For such a short duration, you would expect a company to have confidence in their products.
I have the non-ultimate versions of the oslo's from 2019 and 2023. The leather has significantly improved from 2019 to 2023. the 2023 models are completely silent. You get no leather farting sounds anymore and are so soft. The motors on them are also a lot more silent then the 2019 models.
Valencia is very very good at social media. Every single video online is of a chair they sent to a reviewer for free. With all the recent problems being reported on AVS Forums, I can't trust any of these.
These are currently price prohibitive for me(Someday). I'm the 4th owner of a lazyboy from 2009. Its showing it age but still very comfortable. I let the wife and kids pick from a ton of inexpensive manual recliners from Amazon. They've been happy for a couple years now. I don't fit in any of them. For a long time I've considered it a win when I actually finish a movie. Usually missing the last 15-30 minutes only to awake to the credits rolling.
Oh boy do I know how that goes. I have a 96" Lazy Boy couch and too often when I'm watching something, especially on TV, I look up and realize that I just missed 20 minutes of the show or movie. Thank goodness for Rewind on the DVR. 😄. With movies on disc, it's less of an issue, one of the benefits of cranking up the HT audio system although with non-action dramas, I may slip into the snoozing zone. Again the rewind button is your friend. The moral of this story is: It sucks to get old.
I wish the manufactures of these theater seats . Will move the controls to the top of the chair or in the top of the cup holder as a few manufacturers do because where they are is not user-friendly right next to your thigh it should be on top of the chair.
I love my home theater seating, however, as a short male (5'8), my feet do not touch the ground when I sit back into the seat. Even friends of 5'10 don't fully touch. If your home theater is doing double duty as is mine (I have the 3 seat couch version with folding center), you might be better off getting a regular living room couch that has a power reclining feature. You'll lose all the bells and whistles, but it may be a better fit. That being said, I wouldn't trade mine, so screw the non movie watching visitors- it's my house and there's no reason for them to stay long anyway. Lol
Yup, it’s a trade off. Unless you have high enough ceilings to elevate them above the seats and still have adequate separation between them and the in-ceiling speakers
Enjoyed your valencia review! As for youngsters, its the oil used to make popcorn that has been an issue. I have fabric covered theatre seats, so from time to time I have to get the upholstery shampoo machine to get the oil out of the fabric. Leather should just wipe off or maybe might permanently stain?
I bought a sofa and love seat from Valencia a few years ago. They are similar to the ones in this video. Out of 4 control panels, 3 of them stopped functioning. One stopped working within a few months and i replaced it. Valencia sent the first replacement panel free of charge. Then shortly afterwards, BOTH panels on the love seat stopped working, and Valencia is asking $100 each for replacement panels. Overall, I'm not at all impressed with the sofas, especially for the high price. I ordered mine with the top-of the line leather, but I don't see or feel any difference in quality from any other sofa leather. I'm beginning to think maybe it isn't the top grade leather after all. The fit and build quality are less than average. You can feel hard lumps in one of the sofa seat cushions. One of the seats is also tilted at a slight but noticeable angle. The overall workmanship is just not very good. You would do better to just go to your local furniture store for a similar item at a fraction of the price instead of spending extra money on having it "custom made" by Valencia.
They are a bunch of junk. Out of 4 chairs, they all broke within 1 year. But they look good. Service sucks two. They sent me new parts (I had to pay for them) and they were used, in open bags missing the trim pieces. The parts didn't work either. The chairs were also damaged when they were delivered. They replaced 1 chair, but it took months to get it. I still have 4 broken chairs!!
@@ThaVillaMan just up the middle of chair Keep ur bottom and back warm in winter from sticking in the summer lol. The rest can be their leather Def would have to try and keep it clean so yes on the maintaining. Also does the Oslo have on/off for the buttons ? Not a fan that mine stay on always while I’m trying to watch a movie and the room is completely dark
Hey VillaMan! I'm 6'4 too, these are not the XL right? Do you feel any pressure on your shoulders? I watched another review of a guy who was 6'7 and he could not recline and use the headrest due to them digging into his shoulder not supporting his head.
No these aren’t the XL. I had no issues with how my body fit into it in the reclined position. My head reached the headrest just fine and didn’t create any stress on my shoulders or back
I have regular leather recliners and yes if Im tired I wake up for the film credits. Im throwing them out for a straight back old wooden kitchen chair. My back and ass will hurt but I will see the ending of most films
I have had the Valencia sofa without the arm in the middle for some time. We are extremely satisfied! I have a few videos out with them in the room if you're intrested in how they look.
I think im the only person who finds these uncomfortable.. mines the top grain nappa , and i can feel the metal through the cushion in the back support part of the seat.
👋🏾 I didn’t mention it in the video, but there at 16 colors to chose from.
That is Nappa 20K one the ones you got. Nappa 11K is on the lower end regular version. That is little bit harder and shiny. Regular version also doesn't come with memory recline.

Maybe. I don’t need as much width, just come extra height. But these fit pretty well, so it works

Agreed

Nice! The additional couch for overflow makes sense
I absolutely ❤️ my theater recliner!
The sectional look looks more comfy!!!!!😊
This telegram looks like a scam 😂👆👆
I’m definitely not texting on no telegram for nothing
Keep that 🤣
It is a scam. Don’t know which hole that person crawled out of
@@ThaVillaMan 👍

I actually have a sectional, but the pillows on it are pretty tall, so I get that neck support, the only thing I would REALLY want is the armoire lol
Ahh l, good for you! That said, I don’t think Valencia has many armoires lol
I have the non-ultimate versions of the oslo's from 2019 and 2023. The leather has significantly improved from 2019 to 2023. the 2023 models are completely silent. You get no leather farting sounds anymore and are so soft. The motors on them are also a lot more silent then the 2019 models.
I would love to have some of those in my home theater room.

Do you know of a good chair?
You should try the XL
The HDR on this video is crazy
🙌🏾

Someday! Sounds like we have similar struggles when it comes to movies.

A clear con that should have been mentioned was the expensive pricing. The pricing wasnt even mentioned during the full review once.
I rarely talk about prices because like most HT equipment, it varies over time
@@ThaVillaMan ah makes sense

You’re not short lol
You probably don't want too much neck support; if the neck support blocks the surrounds it will have a real impact on the audio experience.
Yup, it’s a trade off. Unless you have high enough ceilings to elevate them above the seats and still have adequate separation between them and the in-ceiling speakers

I haven’t had any popcorn oils, just greasy fingers which get wiped away easily
Depending on age . . . wait for the spilled milk, pop, greasy potato chips etc. So much fun! 🤪🙃
Is it possible to remove the armrest console from the Valencia and convert the two seats into a loveseat?

I'm feeling the same struggle with lumbar and neck support on my new sofa... and I regret choosing leather :( miss the soft fabric feeling

That is sad to hear. My seats get infrequent use but are still holding up after year one.
I have the Tuscany version. Agree it gets cold. Would like a suede middle option
Ooo that would be nice. Would be a pain to maintain though
@@ThaVillaMan just up the middle of chair Keep ur bottom and back warm in winter from sticking in the summer lol.

Haha that’s pretty extreme
how do you think the loveseat version of it is. without a armrest in the middle
I can’t imagine it would be much different. Maybe just a bit narrower, with the armrest removed
I have had the Valencia sofa without the arm in the middle for some time. We are extremely satisfied! I have a few videos out with them in the room if you're intrested in how they look.
@@Omegga26 thank you, will do
You can now also order an armrest insert for the sofa.
I went from a sofa to Valencia Tuscany seats and never looked back.
Did they give you a discount code?
I think im the only person who finds these uncomfortable.. mines the top grain nappa , and i can feel the metal through the cushion in the back support part of the seat.
Oh man, really? I cont feel a thing
@@ThaVillaMan really eh?. Had em for about 15 months..i shoulda called em right away..
@@mightyzorro You got a defective unit, surprised you thought that was normal lmao.
Well, if the spousal unit says no cupholders in the living room furniture a Lazy Boy is your best friend.
Hahaha fair point
@@ThaVillaMan she does not object to having Klipsch RF-83’s and a big sub in the living room so overall she is a keeper.
Are these the Oslo ULTIMATE?
Yup
There is not a lot of separation from your side and back surrounds. May be sides are enough.
They’re not very far apart, I agree, but I had the side surrounds only for a while too and they sound much better now
Ok
Yardie 🇯🇲
Straight
The stitching is an eyesore and its horrible i would not want to see that at all .
You won’t see it while seated lol. Personally I like it
Correction-They use 20000 Napa leather
