Home Theater Seating Review: Valencia Tuscany vs Seatcraft Diamante

GREAT COMPARISON - THANKS. I'm close to doing Valencia XL Tuscany. Thel lumbar - if I don't use it - - do you think that lumbar section of the seat presses into your back too much? Also - - there's an option for extra padding - -do you feel the current padding is enough? Would the extra padding be too much? Thanks

Great video - could you share the price point between both of them?

Hi

Great video. I was wandering if you could compare the headrest of both chairs in terms of support, padding and movement?

Nice comparison, thanks for posting. We’re the Valencia’s the Ultimate version or the regular Tuscany? The leather seemed more matte looking like the ultimate, which is what I prefer - but if the regular is also matte, I can go that route and save a lot of money. Thanks

What are those stands you have your speakers seating on the floor called ?

great review. now that it has been a little bit, how do you like the bass shakers? I am torn between these two brands and I feel like the bass shakers would be a fun upgrade. But I would also prefer a softer feel.

Super helpful video - thank you! To confirm, are your Valencia Tuscany's in "Charcoal Grey" or "Black"? They look great, but I noticed they have much more of a matte finish and less shine/gloss than nearly every other video I've seen of the "Black" version - thus, I am wondering if it's your camera or they are the grey. Many thanks! I'm about to grab some I think.

Enjoyed the comparison, thanks for that! 2 questions. 1) Do you need an AC outlet for EACH chair? 2) What is your Wall paint color? Thanks

Valencia leaves a lot to be desired. The Valencia panels will fail, and will have to be reached at $100 each. 3 out of 4 of mine have failed and my chairs have only been in use for 2 years. Shop around.

Trying to decide between the Seatcraft Capricorn and Valencia Tuscany XL. I wanted to understand the differences and reached out to Valencia, but two reps claimed to know nothing about Seatcraft. Seems like you would know your competition... For my two rows of three seats, it would be a more than $2k price difference. Lumbar support, hardware to connect the seats, and leather identified by a nonstandard grading system seem to be the only differences. Does that seem right? Is Valencia worth that premium?

You can velcro on a piece of black leather or vinyl over the switches to cover them up when you need. Let the piece hang over the buttons and use the one piece of velcro at the top.

Great comparison, and i went with Seatcraft Equinox since I liked the color better. Questoin, will the Valencia accessories specifically the ipad/iphone accessory work on seatcraft? i like the valencia phone adapter better than seatcraft, but i have

Great review. Can you comment on how the seats are holding up?

Any panels failing?

Any chair wear/tear that is above and beyond what you are expecting?

Nice Review! I am looking at these chairs. I have a question. The space Im putting these I am limited in width. So I plan to get the loveseat, the 7 inches make the walkway better. Do you have any downsides only having an armrest on one side.

How are both holding up now? I'm in the market for some seats and considering the valencia.

How is headrest position on both? One model better for taller people?

The Valencia Tuscany is ridiculously overpriced, they seem like very good seats, but there is a lot of hype artificially created about these seats.

Do the tray tables from the Seatcraft seats fit in the Valencia chairs? Thanks.

what are the dimensions of the riser

Leather get better as it gets used more.

I have four of the Seatcraft Diamante with sound shakers. I think they are awesome. It would have been nice to be able to go to a store and compare multiple theater seating. But all I could do was internet research. Thanks for the review. 👍
