What types of recliners does Slumberland offer?

• Standard Recliners: Standard recliners offer a back that reclines when you push against it. They have a footrest that extends via a lever.
• Power Recliners: If you or a loved one has mobility issues, you may want to consider a power recliner. Power recliners are electric and extend or recline with the touch of a button.
• Rocking or Swivel Recliners: Rocker recliners offer gentle rocking movements and plush comfort. They are a popular option for both the living room and the nursery.
• Wall Recliners: Consider a wall recliner if you’re short on space. They need only six inches between the wall and the frame.
• Lift Chair: If you find it hard to rise from a seated position, you may want to consider lift chairs. Lift chairs have a powered mechanism that pushes the chair up from its base to help the user rise.
• Massage Recliners: When it comes to massage chairs, the only question is: Why not? These recliners have mechanical massage features and heat to relieve aches and pains.
• Large Recliners: These are also called chair-and-a-half recliners, wide recliners, or oversized recliners. Whether you are a big or smaller person, you’ll love stretching out in a roomier seat.
• Reclining Furniture: There’s no need to fight over the recliner. The entire family can enjoy lounging with reclining sofas.

What are the upholstery options available for Slumberland recliners?

Recliners come in many upholstery options, including leather and fabric. Each material has benefits and disadvantages:

• Leather: Leather recliners are durable, easy to clean, and have a luxurious look and feel. Many people think they age well by developing a patina over time. But leather can be expensive compared to other options. They also scratch and fade with prolonged use. So, if you have pets, consider other non-scratchable materials.
• Fabric: Fabric offers a wide range of colors, patterns, and textures. They are more breathable in warmer climates. But, fabric is more prone to staining, so we suggest frequent cleaning. Fabric recliners may not be best if you have young children for this reason.
• Microfiber: Microfiber is soft, durable, and stain-resistant. It is a popular option for households with children or pets. But, some spills need special cleaning treatments. Also, microfiber traps some odors if not cleaned properly.
• Vinyl: Vinyl is affordable and easy to clean. It is also water-resistant which makes it popular for homes with children or pets. But, some find it less comfortable and less breathable than other materials.
• Synthetic Leather: Synthetic leather recliners offer the look and feel of leather at a lower cost. They are often more resistant to scratches and fading than genuine leather. But, it may not be as durable as actual leather.

How do I choose the right recliner chair for my home?

The best recliner varies from person to person. You need to consider many factors to ensure it meets your needs and preferences. Here are some considerations to make to find the perfect recliner for you:

1. Measure Your Space: Measure the area where you plan to put the recliner to ensure it will fit comfortably without overcrowding the room. Consider the dimensions of the chair when reclined. If space is tight, consider wall recliners that can recline against a wall.
2. Decide on Features: Recliners often have many extra features. Features include power assistance (lift recliners), easy-to-adjust headrests, lumbar support, remote controls, massage capabilities, and USB ports. Consider what features you want in your chair.
3. Consider Upholstery: Choose the material that best suits your lifestyle and preferences. Consider factors like durability, ease of cleaning, comfort, and aesthetics. Leather, fabric, microfiber, vinyl, and synthetic leather all have their pros and cons detailed above.
4. Set a Budget: Determine your budget for the recliner. Prioritize features based on your budget constraints. Keep in mind that Slumberland offers special financing options to help.
5. Test Comfortability: Then test the recliner in person. When testing, be sure to sit for a full five minutes. Your feet should touch the floor when the seat back is upright. The headrest should support your head and neck. The seat cushion should be thick. Find your Slumberland store below. Each store has a wide array of recliners to try and trained staff to help answer any questions.
