Recliners these days are a far cry from the expansive leatherette versions of yore, that gulped up precious square footage in your homes. For one, they have become more compact and functional. It is completely possible to find one that can fit into a tiny corner of the living room. Kick back, relax, lounge, rock your little one to sleep, it serves many purposes.

And along with reclining smoothly and bringing up the footrest at the touch of a button, it can also swivel 360 degrees. Forgot to grab your favorite book? Just swivel and reach out for the bookshelf. If you are considering adding one of these protean seating options to your home, then here are some tips to help you with your shopping.

How to pick the right size recliner?

Measure the length with the footrest fully expanded and the backrest fully reclined. Now measure the width. You need at least one to three square feet of space from the wall to the backrest to be able to recline completely. Despite the word ‘small’ being the highlight in the description, you must always measure the recliner and compare it with the available space in the room.

Another important factor to take into consideration is the size of the user. What good is a small swivel rocker recliner if it cannot accommodate you comfortably? Try and sit in the recliner. If you are ordering it online, check the dimensions to get an idea of how comfortable you will be when you sit on it. Your feet should ideally touch the ground without the footrest extended and your head should be resting comfortably on the headrest.

What's the best material for a rocker recliner frame?

For a long time, metal frames were considered the gold standard in recliners and sofas. But now, frames made of solid wood are considered equally durable and can easily last for years.

Apart from the frame, check the quality of the hardware used to reinforce the frame. The screws, the motor, dowels, joinery, the swivel base, everything matters, especially in a high usage household. Think of it like a set of different objects that will be subject to constant rocking and swiveling motion. If the hardware quality is substandard, then it will begin to squeak in a few weeks.

What designs of swivel rocker recliners are there?

From the classic three position recliner to high leg recliners with a push back mechanism, to contemporary ones with curved armrests, you’d be surprised to know that small swivel rockers are available in a bevy of styles and designs. It all boils down to the décor that you are trying to pair it with.

If the room has a classic décor theme, then a standard recliner in muted shades or leather will fit it perfectly. On the other hand, if you are remodeling the room from scratch, then you have ample scope for experimenting with the look of your swivel chair.

What are the best fabrics to use for a swivel rocker recliner?

The fabric on your small swivel rocker recliner should offer the right balance of aesthetics and functionality. Have pets or kids at home? Avoid fabrics like velvet which can get stained, chenille which gets torn and frayed with claws and tweed which can be a hair magnet. Opt for synthetic fabrics or leather. Natural fabrics like cotton might also be a good choice. But it’s difficult to get a tightly woven fit with cotton.
