Your dream home is not complete until you buy a high quality reclining chair for your drawing room. A well furnished drawing room is the mark of class and style and lends a dash of elegance to your home's decor. So if you are buying a recliner make sure you go for the quality and buy a piece which is comfortable, yet stylish.
Before purchasing a recliner make sure you examine it thoroughly. You should take into account the space of your drawing room where you are going to accommodate it. Make sure that not more than 5 inches of space is kept between the seat and the leg rest when opened so that your guests, kids or your beloved pets do not trip over the chair due to cramped space.
When you are going to buy leather recliners make sure that you are comfortable with it. Try to sit in the chair for five minutes and ensure that your feet touch the floor in the recliner's upright position. You should also make sure that the recliner contains comfortable cushion and its head rest and back rest should support your head and neck. Check whether the foot rest of the chair is easy to adjust and does not squeak. A squeaking chair is an indicator that it is not properly aligned or it has loose parts.
Another important feature you should check before purchasing a quality recliner chair is the quality of foam used and the foam density of the chair. Density rating of foam in a good quality reclining chair should be more than 1.9. Most of these chairs have a density between 0.9 and 0.25 which is absolutely fine for a good quality chair. The cushion of will retain its shape longer if it has a higher foam density.
You should also consider the upholstery of the chair and contemplate whether it complements your existing room dcor. Leather recliners are more expensive and cost around 800, but, at the same time, are also more durable. You can also go in for synthetic microfiber fabric which withstands moisture and wrinkling. These type of recliners cost between 300 to 700 and are preferable for those who like the feel of suede.
Buying vinyl recliner chairs should be avoided as they have the tendency to crack. They are not at all durable and cost less, between 200 and 400. Instead, you can choose a wool recliner as they are long lasting and are great in resisting strains. They are a little pricey but are definitely worth the investment.
So before you decide to buy a reclining chair for your home, always keep in mind that you are making a one-time investment and so you should not compromise on quality.
