Does anyone know who makes the recliner used in many of the high-end coaches?

Here are some links found here on the forum that are suppliers to the RV industry.

I've been digging around various websites; Marathon appears to use Lafer and Liberty uses Ekrones. Haven't found anything for Bird or Newell yet. I also found good looking chairs at Arizona Leather.

The one in mine is an Ekrone with a matching ottoman. It's pretty comfortable and stays in place while traveling.

No offense...Flexsteel doesn't make a decent product.
Paid 1,200 bucks for a chair in my bird. Padding lasted a little over a year. A padding guy that I know, told me they have a good frame, but use the cheapest padding in the chairs. I can see why Prevost and others use other brands.

Bob I've heard your story from several others. Flexsteel use to be a good product but not any longer.

Got a wall hugger recliner for the my FC from Bradd and Hall. Great service but as previously mentioned, Flexsteel padding isn't so great.

Been reading your posts about the recliner. I think I have a high end one on my 94 WB. The only problem it is so close to the curbside table and the wall, it cannot be used as intended - i.e. a comfortable recliner. Anyone know if it can be easily moved say 6 " aft and 3" closer to the aisle?
There appears to be no adjusting mechanism under the chair. Thanks y'all!
