Six Tips for Choosing the Perfect Recliner
There's a lot to consider when choosing a new recliner. It's an exciting time to do up large homes or small spaces, so come along for the most relaxing ride of your life. Here are some tips to get you started.
Before dashing out to your local furniture retailer, reign your enthusiasm in for a moment or two while considering your options.
The room - New Zealand families may be smaller these days, but the average home has grown considerably. That's a lot of new spaces where a reclining chair can be the perfect fit. Do you want a new recliner for your living room, office, den, library, nursery, or conservatory? There are recliner styles for every room, whether your home is an expansive estate or a smaller unit.
The room dimensions - Measure your room and take features such as windows, doorways, fireplace and other permanent fixtures into consideration. A flashy recliner with all the bells and whistles might look perfect in the showroom, but be too big and bulky at home. Your new recliner should make a statement without impeding comfortable flow around the room.
Other room considerations - By partnering with a major recliner chair brand such as La-Z-Boy, you get to be your own interior design expert. Here are just a few more ideas before visiting your local retail showroom.
You should be a little selfish if choosing a new recliner just for yourself. The right recliner is a piece of furniture that encourages relaxation and therapeutic benefits from the headrest to the footrest and everywhere in-between. People come in different shapes and sizes, and so do recliners. Will children or pets be 'using' the chair? You may want to consider easy-wipe leather rather than fabric upholstery.
Whether you are large, small, petite, or tall, La-Z-Boy has it all. Your goal should be personalised comfort and optimum support. After all, a high-quality reclining chair can last a lifetime, so comfort levels should be prioritised. Here's how to make the right choice first time.
Explore La-Z-Boy recliner options online. You can target selections according to size, style, and many other particulars that are important to you.

Rocker Recliner - Rocking chairs are big favourites with nursing mothers and others who are lulled into relaxation by a serene rocking motion. Rock and recline for the best of both worlds.
Wall Hugger Recliner - These innovative recliner chairs include special mechanisms that allow you to fully recline even when close to a wall. Consider a wall hugger if yours is a smaller room.
Lift Recliner - A lift recliner encourages mobility and independence by safely elevating and lowering the user to a comfortable standing position or seated position with push-button control.
Your choice of fabric or leather upholstery should be both practical and meaningful. La-Z-Boy recliner chair customization includes dozens of leather options and more than 50 fabulous fabrics in a wide range of patterns, textures and colours for personalising the best recliner possible. Here are some fabric factors to help you narrow down your selection.
Leather has been a living room favourite sofa covering for hundreds of years, but not all sofas are created equally. High-quality full-grain leather is the best, and most valuable. If the fabric is your preference, there are lots of natural and artificial fibres to choose from. The best fabrics offer unique qualities worth considering, including:
There are a lot of factors that influence the cost of a new recliner chair, and it's important to purchase quality if you want something to last. Cost-cutting shortcuts are tempting but ultimately unsatisfying. We've all been there and done that. It's worth understanding what goes on beneath the plush surface of a new recliner, including construction features designed for long-term reliability.
