4 Tips for Finding the Best Big and Tall Recliner
4 Tips for Finding the Best Big and Tall Recliner
We all come in different shapes and sizes.
But it seems like a lot of furniture manufacturers don’t recognize this. Or, they simply forget about it when designing and fabricating their furniture.
And unfortunately, it’s a problem. It seems like a lot of furniture is trying to fit a “one-size-fits-all” ideal, but this is impossible. Have you ever tried to sit in a recliner which was way too small? It’s really uncomfortable.
Most of us show a measure of concern over whether our workspace and tools are ergonomically correct. Why shouldn’t our living space be just as functional and comfortable?
Thankfully, not everyone has forgotten there are big and tall people out there who want to be comfortable when they sit down and relax for a bit.
Here are some tips which will help you find the best recliner for your shape and size.
How to Find the Best Big and Tall Recliner – 5 Helpful Tips
Here are some things to consider before buying a recliner.
1. Check the Weight Restrictions
Did you know most chairs have weight limits? The average weight limit for a recliner ranges from 250 to 350 pounds.
Recliners made specifically for those with big and tall needs have a higher weight limit. They also tend to be taller and wider, making them way more comfortable.
2. Check the Dimensions
Make sure to double check the dimensions. The seat height should be at least 18 inches. The height of the back should be 45 inches and higher. And the reclining length should be 75 inches at the very least.
3. How Many Positions Does the Recliner Provide?
Try to find a chair which has as many positions as possible: Seated, partially reclined, and fully reclined is best.
4. Research the Brand
Furniture durability should be a high priority. If you’re going to invest hundreds of dollars in a leather recliner, you want to make sure it’s going to last.
When you find a chair which seems to fit your body and your needs, do some research before handing over your cash. See what other consumers have had to say about the quality and durability of the brand and the chair you’re interested in.
