High Leg Recliners

A favorite pastime for people today is enjoying a comfortable chair, especially one that will recliner!  Kathy, this style looks like just a straight chair, correct?



Yes, it has much more style than a typical recliner. This chair might have been called a fireside chair, which offers rounded arms and a taller back, lots of times used in a library type room.


But does it recliner also?

Yes, this chair is a recliner, and also offers power for opening and closing!


Is that an important feature?


Yes, in this style, the power will allow you to recline easily.  Without the power, it requires you to push the back, back!  That is difficult for a lot of people.  The arms are not moving, it is the back!


What about this style offering a rocking feature?


Because this chair sits up off the floor on wood legs, it will be a chair, or it will recline.  It doesn’t not have the ability to rock or be a wall hugger.  You definitely want this type of chair for the style!


Who would benefit most from this style recliner?


This style usually sits higher off the floor because of the leg system it uses.  The high seat is exceptional good for taller people, or for those who have a harder time getting up out of a chair!


Any other benefits that this style offers?


A lot of people like that the seat cushion is removable and flip-able!   That is a great feature on standard furniture but not usually an option on reclining!


Style and comfort!  What a great piece! Thank you Kathy for sharing the important features of a high leg recliner!  


Thank you for watching today’s DesignTime episode!
