Tips to Consider When Shopping for Recliners for Small Spaces
Measure Your Space
It’s important to know precise measurements of the area where your recliner will sit. Not only should you account for the space needed for the chair to fit in an upright position, but you’ll also need to know how much space you’re working with for the reclining position. Thankfully, La-Z-Boy offers customizations to accommodate your needs. Knowing the space you’ll be working with will guide what type of base you should consider. If your recliner will be close to a wall, La-Z-Boy has a line of wall recliners that will still give you the benefits of reclining features without the additional space needed against the wall.
Make Sure the Recliner Fits Your Body
No matter the size of your living space, it’s still important to find a recliner that fits your unique body type. Sitting in a recliner that doesn’t fit your body can cause unnecessary pain. When you spend a long period in an ill-fitting chair, you may experience:
- Neck Pain
- Back Pain
- Leg/Ankle Pain
This is because the cushions and leg rest don’t align with your neck, back, and legs. For example, if the neck cushion pushes your neck forward because you’re too small for the recliner – you’ll experience neck pain.
Also, your ankles will hurt if they hang off the leg rest while you’re reclined.
La-Z-Boy Recliners have seven patented features and benefits. Picking a recliner that fits your body type will help you get the most out of each one.
