Designer Advice
You can get small recliners with manual or automatic controls in various styles. Most full and oversized recliners only come in one chunky style. But small-scale seats come in a range of styles and materials. And you can also get smaller recliners in more versatile colors and pattern prints than larger seats.

Designer Advice
Small-scale recliners allow you to relax and put your feet up without dominating your room or ruining your style. Regular recliners are bulky and can look frumpy and clash with your decor. In contrast, you can fit most compact scale recliners into almost any room as an additional seat or in place of a sofa. You can also use a smaller reclining chair as an extra seat in your bedroom.

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.
Recliners don’t have to be big, bulky and bold. They can be small, understated and quiet – and still be comfortable. Small scale recliners are perfect for small people. Whether you are a grandmother who just never quite made it to the bottom side of the “average height” scale or whether you are a kid who is hoping for a growth spurt, a recliner is a comfortable place to rest.
Small scale recliners can be just the thing for a small house or a small person, or both. If you are of less than average height, or if your household includes preteen or elementary-aged children, a full-size recliner can be just too much – especially if space is at a premium. Sometimes, a small recliner can even be turned into a sort of extra bed if the need is sufficiently dire, and it is always perfect for that after-dinner nap. A comfy, cuddly, just-right chair is something everyone loves.
Leather Wingback
Make your small office more imposing with a leather upholstered wingback chair. It looks so professional, perhaps even a little severe. You don’t have to tell the clients you are intent on impressing that your office chair doubles as a bed for your power nap. You can let that be your secret – the one that enables you to sail serenely through your day, looking good.
Small Sectionals
A small sectional couch – one of those configure-it-yourself furnishings – can also include a small recliner, or maybe even two recliners for companionably resting. Sectionals allow you some flexibility in how you arrange your space and give you a chance to disguise that comfy chair. They can be in all sorts of arrangements. They can encourage conversation or allow for a little separation if needed.
Patio Wicker
Woven wicker furniture is perfect for your patio, and can easily include a small recliner. After you’ve spent the morning toiling to make your lawn and garden perfect, reclining in your favorite eco-friendly synthetic rattan recliner is the perfect way to recharge your batteries. It gives you a chance to listen to the birds, enjoy your flowers and foliage or just take a nap. Siestas are a lovely part of summer.
Just a Regular Chair
A small recliner can look like just a regular chair – until you need it to recline. Especially if it does not require a lot of wall space to function, there is no reason for anyone to know that a particular chair is a recliner.
If you love a catnap after your morning chores are done, or a siesta before tackling that next task, a plushy little recliner in just your size can be the perfect furnishing. Kick back with a cuppa and a good book before girding up your loins for gardening, dish washing laundry – or whatever is next. Recliners have the happy ability to support your head, neck and back while allowing you to elevate your feet. That will go a long way toward comfort.
