Recliner Chairs

Recliner Chairs buying guide

Recliner Chairs are a practical choice if you want a seat that lets you sit upright, lean back and relax without giving up much floor space. This category is mainly made up of one-seater designs, so it suits individual lounging in a living room, snug or reading corner.

The collection leans towards contemporary styling, with mid-century and modern looks also well represented. That makes it straightforward to match a chair to an existing sofa, side table or TV unit in a relaxed living space.

Recliner Chairs sizes and fit

The usual footprint is compact enough for many living rooms, but the shape still needs measuring carefully. Across the sampled products, widths typically sit between 70.8 cm and 106 cm, with an observed span from 67 cm to 109 cm, while depths usually fall between 72.4 cm and 100 cm and can reach 102 cm.

What that means at home

These measurements suggest a chair that can work well in smaller seating corners, provided you allow room for the recline action and comfortable access around it. Heights in the sample run from 90 cm to 113 cm, so it is worth checking sightlines if the chair will sit beneath shelving, a window ledge or a low feature wall.

Check access before ordering

It is sensible to compare the product dimensions with doorways, hallways and stair turns before you buy, especially if you are placing the chair upstairs or into a tighter room. A compact Recliner Chair can still need more manoeuvring space than a standard armchair once packaging and angles are taken into account.

Recliner Chairs styles and options

Fabric is the most common upholstery in the category, followed by leather and faux leather. That gives you a useful split between softer tactile finishes and smoother surfaces, with colour options that include grey, brown, black, blue, beige, cream and orange.

Fabric and leather finishes

If you prefer a softer look, fabric options are the clearest place to start, and you can browse more focused choices through Fabric Recliner Chairs. For a smoother finish, leather and faux leather versions bring a neater visual texture and are also available as part of the range, including styles shown in brown, black and dark grey.

Style details to compare

The range includes contemporary, mid-century, modern, classic and a small amount of vintage styling, so the overall feel varies from simple and streamlined to more characterful shapes. A few finishes also stand out, such as grey velvet, walnut lacquered and black lacquered details, although these are less common than the main fabric and leather options.

Recliner Chairs materials and finishes

Most of the selection is designed as a one-seater, which keeps the focus on personal comfort rather than larger shared seating. If you want a matching set around the room, the wider living area can be coordinated with complementary pieces such as Sofas, coffee tables or side tables.

Assembly and delivery options

CFS offers free standard delivery, and optional assembly is available on selected products only. Some items arrive assembled, some part assembled and some flat packed, so it is best to check the individual product page and checkout for the exact service information before ordering your Recliner Chairs.

Finance options are also available, including a 50% deposit option subject to the terms and eligibility shown by CFS. Availability for finance and assembly can vary by item, so the product page remains the best place to confirm what applies to the chair you have chosen.

For the wider room, you can also continue browsing through Living Room Furniture if you are coordinating a full seating area around your chosen chair.
