What's the difference between a recliner and a normal lounge chair?

Why would you want a recliner when you've established the perfect position for your favorite sofa bed, lounge chair, or any other seating? The biggest difference between regular seating and recliner chairs is that a recliner has the ability to lift your feet and lower the backrest, so you can sit back and relax after a long day. There are a million ways you can sit in a recliner, while you can only sit so many ways on a couch without adding an ottoman or moving around your cushions. Recliner chairs can provide additional lumbar support, relief from circulation issues and joint pain, and plenty of room for your loved ones to have their own space. Some recliners even have rising features that can help you exit the chair more easily, perfect for guests with mobility issues.

Artiss recliner chairs come with a wide variety of special features and come in a range of different colours, materials and styles. More than just a stylish addition to your home, you'll wonder how you ever did without one. Deck out your office, bedroom or living space and prepare for ultimate relaxation anywhere, anytime.

Choosing recliner chairs for you

Choosing the right recliner chair for you will depend on what you're using it for. Is it mainly for you, family, or guests? Do you usually need assistance getting out of chairs? Do you want a fully adjustable backrest, headrest, or both? Do you want something stylish or something practical? How will you be using it most - do you want a cosy corner to read a book, or a comfortable vantage point to watch tv?

Two of the biggest concerns will be your space and budget. These chairs need plenty of space in the front and back to properly recline, and some models need additional space to spin, rise, or rock. Electric recliners and manual recliners have very different price points in exchange for a whole host of features. Recliners are also heavier than other pieces of living room furniture, thanks to the various mechanisms involved

Finally, you should be comfortable with the actual seat. Do you prefer the stylish glam of premium PU leather or the soft comfort of wool? Do you prefer high-resilience foam padding, memory foam, or a down blend? Shop around and try out different seats - you're going to be in this chair for a while, and you should enjoy it to the fullest!

Recliners FAQ

What's the right material for my recliner?

Since recliners come upholstered, your biggest choice will be whether you choose fabric, leather, or synthetic material.

If your priority is a soft seat to relax and unwind in, you'll probably enjoy a fabric seat. Choose cotton for an easy, breezy, hypoallergenic surface, linen for a hearty and durable material, or wool for the ultimate cosy, soft, warm armchair.

If your goal is style and you have some extra room in the budget, a leather chair is a great investment. Leather only gets better with age, and it's tough enough for the whole family (though we recommend keeping stray claws away!).

If you're looking for the best of both worlds but at a lower price point, look no further than synthetic materials. Microfibre, polyester and other synthetic fabrics are not only affordable, but they're extra resistant to stains, fading, and scratching. If you prefer the leather look, PU leather has the same sleek, shiny texture at a fraction of the price. Tired of the plain black and brown? PU leather also comes in a wider variety of colours! perfect for kids and adults furniture alike.

Are recliners actually bad for your back?

The simple answer: no. They're specifically designed to be the opposite! Slouching, hunching and other bad posture habits can cause back pain. Most recliner chairs are designed with lumbar support for your lower back to prevent poor posture. However, if your recliner is not the right fit, it can cause or worsen back pain over time. When sitting in your recliner, you should feel like your back is supported, your arms are at a comfortable height, and your knees are at a 90-degree angle. When reclined, the highest point of the chair should be just below your kneecaps, you should feel comfortable and relaxed, and your lower back should feel fine after 5 minutes or more.

There are many health benefits to recliner chairs, but you won't make the best of them without a chair that fits.

Is a recliner safe for children and pets?

Recliner chairs come with all kinds of magical mechanisms to help you recline and unwind, but those mechanisms can be a hazard when it comes to small children and pets! If you have little feet running around your home, you may need to be a little extra vigilant when it comes to your recliner. Make it clear that the recliner chair is not a toy - don't let small children operate it by themselves, whether you have an electric recliner or a manual recliner. Before using the chair, double check no small hands or claws are hiding under the chair or exploring the gap. While it's tempting to cuddle up with our furry friends in our favourite chair, you may want to redirect them by putting a pet bed close by with their favourite toys.
