A recliner chair is a single seat with its own reclining mechanism. A recliner sofa seats two or three people, usually with the reclining function on the end seats. The mechanism works the same way; the difference is seating capacity and footprint.
Clearance is needed behind the chair for the backrest and in front for the footrest. The exact figures vary by model, so check the fully reclined dimensions listed on each product page rather than assuming a standard allowance.
Most recliner chairs in this collection are manual — operated by a side lever or a pull switch. Manual models need no power supply and have no electrical components, so placement isn't limited by socket position. Electric models, when available, are labelled Electric in the product name.
PU and air leather have a smooth surface that wipes clean, which suits households with children or pets. Fabric options such as chenille feel softer and warmer for longer sitting. The difference is surface feel and cleaning, not durability of the mechanism.
Single-seat recliner chairs
A recliner chair seats one person. Most models here use a manual mechanism — a side lever or a pull switch — to move the backrest and raise the footrest. No power supply is needed, which means placement isn't limited by socket position.
Upholstery splits between PU and air leather, which wipe clean, and chenille and other upholstery fabrics, which feel softer for longer sitting. Several models include built-in cup holders and a side storage pocket. Recliners need clearance both behind and in front, so check the fully reclined dimensions before positioning one against a wall.
