Know before you buy
The recliner features a discreet handle located on the inside of the armrest. Simply pull the handle to engage the mechanism and adjust the chair to your preferred reclining position.
The swivel and glide functions are designed for use while the chair is in the upright, seated position. Once the manual recline mechanism is fully engaged, these motion features are locked to ensure stability.
The chair uses high-resiliency, contour-cut foam in multiple densities. This combination provides a firm, supportive feel that maintains its shape over time rather than sinking or sagging.
With a width of 30 inches and a slim, curved track arm design, this chair has a compact footprint that works well in apartments or smaller seating areas without sacrificing comfort.
The frame is built using engineered wood products with pinned and glued joints. This construction method creates a rigid, long-lasting structure that resists warping and shifting under regular use.
This model uses 100% premium elastic webbing for both the seat and back. This system provides a consistent, flexible support that contours to your body and offers better endurance than traditional metal coils.
