Can a reclining sofa be against a wall?

Yes, some reclining sofas can be placed against a wall! These are called "wall hugger" recliners. They have a special reclining mechanism that allows them to recline fully even when positioned close to a wall. However, some traditional reclining sofas may require a few inches of clearance from the wall to fully recline. Be sure to check the specifications of the specific sofa you're interested in to determine the recommended clearance.

How much space do I need for a reclining sofa?

The amount of space you'll need for a reclining sofa depends on two main factors: the size of the sofa itself and the clearance required for reclining. Measure your living space to determine the best size for your needs, and check product specifications for the recommended clearance. Don't forget to factor in walking space when measuring your living room!

What is the difference between a manual and a power reclining sofa?

Manual recline sofas require you to use a handle or lever to push the backrest back and elevate the leg rest. The pro is they are more affordable, but the con is that they require some physical effort to operate. Power recline sofas recline using a built-in motor and the push of a button. They often come with additional features like heating and massage capabilities. However, they are more expensive. Slumberland carries both types.

How long are reclining sofas?

Our sofa recliners vary in width from 61 to 96 inches, depth from 37 to 48 inches, and height from 37 to 48 inches.

What is the best sofa recliner?

The best reclining sofa for you depends on your unique needs and preferences. We recommend considering the factors below and visiting a Slumberland store to try some models out for yourself.

• Budget: Though Slumberland offers several generous financing options to help you get the perfect furniture just outside your budget, consider how much you are willing to spend. Manual recliners are generally more affordable than power recliners.
• Size and configuration: Choose a size that fits your space without taking up too much room. How many people do you need to seat? You may want to consider getting a sectional if you need to seat more than three people. Also, consider wall clearance. We have some models of wall huggers, but check product dimensions and details for how much clearance they require before making a purchase.
• Comfort and features: Some sofa recliners come with additional features. Consider if you want features like a console, lumbar support, cup holders, or a headrest. Also consider which upholstery material is right for you, whether that is fabric, leather, or vinyl.

What is Slumberland's warranty policy on reclining sofas?

Slumberland allows exchanges or returns of reclining sofas within our standard policy timeframe, as long as the sofa is in original condition and you have a valid receipt. For returns, you will receive a full refund via your original payment method or store credit. While we don't offer warranties outside of our furniture protection plan, warranties do vary by manufacturer. Make sure to read all manufacturer documentation regarding product warranties. Slumberland is happy to facilitate repairs and warranty claims with our manufacturers for you. You can learn more on our guarantees page.
