Buying Guide

An oversized armchair is like a warm bear hug. You can’t get enough of it. And there’s no reason not to like one. What’s stopping you from getting one for your home? Here are a few quick tips to help you make the best decisions while shopping for oversized armchairs.

  • They serve as your personal, cozy space that beckons every time you set your sight on it.
  • They can be the space where you cuddle up, a book in hand, a cup of joe in the other.
  • They can be the perfect space for a quick shuteye when the mercury drops outside.
  • They can be the perfect focal point for your living room.

Ensure that you measure the dimensions of the chair and the room where it will be placed. If the room is small, then opt for a slender design with legs. It will make the space appear bigger, even with the oversized armchair in it. An oversized armchair is named so because it’s unlike any other piece of furniture. It’s a chair and a half, if that makes sense. You can position it anywhere that catches your fancy. Near the window, next to the sofa, by the fireside. Anything works as long as it doesn’t gobble up more space than it can afford.

The sky is the limit when it comes to designs in oversized armchairs. High backrest, low sunken ones, flared arms, curved arms, recliners, chairs with legs and ones with a solid base, you have choices galore.

Your eventual decision should be based on what you think works best for you.

  • If you will be using the armchair while working on the laptop, a high backrest might be a better option.
  • If you are just looking for a cozy nook, then you can pick a recliner. It’s super comfortable and it blends in easily.
  • If the chair has wooden legs, match the wood with the rest of the furniture.

  • Oversized armchairs look their best in luxe fabrics like velvet. And you can pick rich hues to create a visual contrast in the room.
  • There’s always the safer option to choose a softer and neutral hue with the upholstery, mind you.
  • Think of the entire room, with all the furniture pieces like one cohesive unit that must harmonize with each other. Be it the artwork, the sofa, the side table or the coffee table, they all must complement one another.
  • You must also keep the upkeep of the chair in mind while selecting upholstery. Is the material stain resistant? Can it be cleaned easily?
  • Always ask the manufacturer for details on the materials used. If they have used leather, ask whether it’s full hide leather.

There’s always room for improvement when it comes to a warm and inviting armchair. Pair it with a compact side table that works as a parking space for the book, the cup and other sundry details. Even better, drape the backrest with a lamb’s wool throw or just casually throw it over the arms.
