Thinking of buying a new recliner for your home? Then you will be surprised by the different varieties of recliners you come across in the market; you will find stressless recliners (from brands like Ekornes), wall huggers, rockers and so on In addition to taking aesthetics into consideration, you will need to take note of several other factors when choosing a recliner. Here are some pointers that will help you zero in on the best recliner for your home. Size matters You will need to ensure that the recliner you choose fits into the designated space in the living room (or any other room in your home for that matter). Consider the tilt factor as well, which allows the recliner to be comfortably tilted without hitting the wall or other furniture in the room. Leg space also needs to be considered as you will need to have room to move around the recliner when someone else is using it. And then there is the recliner with an attached ottoman that will simply refuse to fit into the exact shape and size you had pictured earlier. The general rule of thumb here is to measure the available space in the room and choose a recliner that falls well within these measurements.
