There is nothing better than a plush, cozy chair and a half for relaxing in your living room or bedroom. A chair and a half is generally wider than an armchair but narrower than a loveseat. This allows you to have enough space to sit comfortably with or without toss pillows or snuggle up with your pet or someone you love. A chair and a half rocker recliner offers smooth back-and-forth motion and even provides you with an inviting space to nap.
