First: Identify your style preferences

Before embarking on the journey of finding the perfect recliner, take some time to determine your style preferences.

Are you drawn to modern minimalism, classic elegance, or a rustic charm?

Your existing decor can provide clues to your style inclinations.

Consider the colours, patterns, and materials that dominate your interior design.

A recliner should complement your existing furniture, creating a cohesive look.

Understand recliner types

Recliners come in various types, each catering to different style preferences. Some popular types include:

Traditional Recliners: The ultimate choice for comfort, these features enhanced lumbar support, and traditional styling reminiscent of classic designs. They can add a touch of elegance to your living space.

Modern Recliners: These recliners are characterized by clean lines and a minimalist aesthetic. They often feature power technology to help you recline at the touch of a button, and integrate seamlessly into contemporary interiors.

Lift Recliners: Lift recliners are designed with comfort and mobility in mind. They assist individuals in getting up from a seated position, making them a practical choice for older adults or those with mobility issues.

Consider your comfort level

Comfort is non-negotiable when it comes to recliners. After all, the primary purpose of a recliner is to provide a cosy and relaxing seating experience. Look for the following comfort factors:

Padding and Cushioning: Opt for a recliner with ample padding and high-quality cushioning. This ensures that you can sink into the chair comfortably.

Adjustability: The ability to adjust the reclining angle and footrest is essential. This allows you to find the perfect position for reading, watching TV, or taking a nap.

Support: A good recliner should provide adequate lumbar and neck support. Look for ergonomic designs that promote proper posture.

Focus on material matters

The choice of material impacts both the style and comfort of your recliner.

Consider factors such as durability, maintenance and how the material complements your existing decor.

Common materials include:

Leather: Leather recliners exude luxury and sophistication. They are durable and develop a unique patina over time. Leather coverings can be easier to clean and if cared for properly, only improve with age. Improves with age, easy to keep clean.

Fabric: Fabric recliners offer various colours and patterns to match your style. They can range from cosy and casual to more formal options. Fabric coverings also offer you more choice to suit the recliner to your home decor, by choosing a colour or texture that suits your style.

Check size and scale

Before purchasing a recliner, consider the size and scale of the chair for your living space.

A recliner that’s too large can overwhelm the room, while one that’s too small might not provide the desired comfort.

Measure the available space and ensure the recliner’s dimensions fit well.

And finally: Test before you buy

Never underestimate the importance of testing a recliner in person before deciding.

Visit your local La-Z-Boy store and spend some time sitting in different recliners.

Pay attention to how easy it is to operate the reclining mechanism, the comfort level, and whether the chair suits your body size and shape.

Choosing a recliner that seamlessly blends style and comfort involves thoughtful consideration of your personal preferences and the design of your space.

The perfect recliner is not just a piece of furniture—it’s an investment in your comfort and well-being.
