Our advice Buying Guide

Modern recliner chairs come in many shapes, sizes, colors, and upholstery types. In fact, there are so many that you are sure to be able to find a recliner to fit your décor and your lifestyle.

What are the different styles and designs of modern recliner chairs?

Want something a little more companionable than an armchair? Got you covered! Reclining loveseats and couches are easy to find in any style or upholstery. As a society, we become increasingly solitary. Even when living as a family, we have our own rooms where we retreat to enjoy singular activities. A reclining couch or love seat invites a couple or even a family to enjoy a movie or show on a television shared in the living room. There is even a recliner to go – the gravity lawn chair recliner is the perfect companion for a lazy day at the beach or for napping in the backyard.

Love leather? There are plenty of different sizes and styles of recliners in leather. Vegan or otherwise disinclined to purchase leather? Fabric and faux leathers are available in more colors and print styles than you can possibly imagine. Want something a little more flexible than the footstool on a spring? You can get recliners with detached and detachable footstools.

What sized do modern recliner chairs come in?

Recliners can come in all sorts of sizes from a child’s recliner, a petite recliner for a small adult right on up through extra-large, extra-large recliners for big and tall people.

What are the most common upholstery materials used for modern recliner chairs?

Print fabrics

Recliners are often thought of as masculine furnishings, something wrought in leather with ornamental nail studs, but in fact they can be purchased in all sorts of prints from dainty floral designs to bold geometrics. If there is an upholstery fabric made, then you can have that fabric on your recliner. In some cases, that might mean taking it to a fabric shop and getting it re-upholstered, which is a perfect solution for a favorite chair. With that said, there is an amazing variety of print fabric upholstered recliner chairs that can be purchased just as they came from the factory.

Faux Leather

Once called Naugahyde, faux leather upholstery can give the conscientious vegan or vegetarian the option of having the leather look without the leather price or implications. Faux leather is also a good choice for families with small children where spills could be anticipated as an almost daily event. Faux leather easily wipes clean. It does wear out more quickly than real leather or even tough upholstery fabric.

Real Leather

Nicely tanned leather wears well and is easier to clean than fabric, even if it has been liberally treated with Scotchgard. Although the initial purchase price might be a little higher than faux leather, the longevity more than makes up for the expenditure.
