What we don’t like: No motion in the base 

The Stationary High Back Recliner is constructed of durable eucalyptus wood and features foam-filled cushions for the ultimate alternative to IKEA reclining chairs. It can support up to 400 lbs., so you can cozy up with your kids or the dog, all on one seat. Unlike other recliners from IKEA that are made of synthetic fabrics, the velvet fabric on the upholstered seat makes cleaning easy and feels soft on the skin.

The footrest also folds out from the seat without any gap, ensuring no risk of fingers getting caught in the chair. The rounded edges make this a great recliner option for small spaces.
