Buying Guide
Caroline is a young, New York-based interior designer and home decor writer, obsessed with textiles and designer furniture. Backed with rigorous training from a prestigious design school, as well as a profound understanding of material quality and fabric care, she offers spot-on advice on how to furnish your place with reliable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing pieces.
The widest recliner can change depending on which company or store you’re buying it from. However, 54” is considered to be one of the widest types of oversized rocker recliners. Once again, this can change slightly depending on the design of a specific model, but it usually results in around 30 inches in between the actual arms.
To measure for an oversized rocker recliner, start by measuring the width of the space where you intend to place the recliner. Keep in mind that online measurements for the rocker recliner’s dimensions will most likely be in inches. An oversized recliner’s width is measured from one armrest’s outside edge to the other’s outer edge.
After measuring the width of the area you want to place the recliner, you also need to consider the length of the piece when it’s in the reclined position. This measurement is from the top of the recliner’s back to the bottom of the footrest when the chair is reclined.
Websites typically state the dimensions when fully reclined for their oversized rocker recliners. Confirm that the space you’re measuring is at least 5”-10” wider and longer than your desired recliner on each side so that you can lay back comfortably without touching the wall.
When searching for a coffee table for your oversized rocker recliner, don't get carried away and think that it has to be oversized too. In fact, you should not go so large that it will make moving around the coffee table or getting to your recliner a difficult or awkward task.
Likewise, refrain from going too small that people don't even notice you have a coffee table. Additionally, a coffee table still needs to be functional and hold drinks etc., ensuring it is big enough for the desired purpose.
Your coffee table should also always be lower than your recliner and not wider than the width of the recliner, so it still looks in proportion.
Finally, opt for a coffee table that has hidden storage and doubles as extra seating for when you need it. When it comes to the style of the coffee table, it should match your existing living room furniture.
