While most reclining chairs employ modern styles, you'd be able to find a few pieces that are inspired by what's known as the "Queen Anne Style" that is characterized by curvilinear lines and cabriole legs. Commonly referred to as Queen Anne recliners, they have the style that's an improvement to the style, William and Mary, which was used predominantly used in the early 17th century within most royal homes.

Today, Queen Anne recliners come with power features along with space-saving capabilities, making them favorites in most households within the country.

How to measure for a Queen Anne recliner?

When buying a Queen Anne recliner, one of the common mistakes of homeowners is not considering the space that they have. The size of a recliner, regardless of the type, is often discounted especially when an existing chair already fits perfectly within a home. However, not all recliners have the same exact dimensions!

It's essential that you consider if your chosen Queen Anne recliner will fit through your doors during its delivery. Don't just take the dimensions of a recliner's potential placement but also the opening of doors where the new chair will come through.

Furthermore, it's worth noting whether there's enough space within the room to allow for a reclining action. If you will be getting the standard recliner, you'll need space in front and behind the chair. If you have limited space, opt for wall hugger types as they can be placed closer to walls.

What types of motor do Queen Anne recliners come with?

The number of motors that your Queen Anne recliner carries will determine the functions available for you to enjoy.

A dual motor Queen Anne recliner will give you complete control of both your chair's backrest and footrest. This means you can have your footrest recliner up while the backrest is in the upright position or vice versa.
As for the single motor, it will lift to a standing position (for a riser) and recline to a comfy position in one function.

How to ensure the quality of your Queen Anne recliner's frame?

The first to break on a Queen Anne recliner are actually the non-moving parts according to repair experts. With that said, you need to scope the chair's underside. If that is not possible, contact a manufacturer and ask to view videos, photos, or sample cutaways of their recliners. Look for heavy-duty screws. There shouldn't be dinky ones in a Queen Anne recliner nor plastic fasteners which are worse.

Also, you should NEVER fall for gimmicky descriptions like an "all-wood construction" as it is just code for a pressboard that's of extremely poor quality. It's too soft that it can't withstand a recliner's reclining or rocking motion. Hardwood is your best choice when it comes to the material used in creating a recliner's frame. However, it comes with a hefty price tag. Your second decent choice is plywood. A Queen Anne recliner with a plywood construction can be acquired for as low as $250.

Of course, you must check the guarantee that comes with the recliner. It should at least span for three to five years.
