Know before you buy
The Minnie recliner uses a smooth manual mechanism that allows you to transition from an upright position to a reclined state by shifting your body weight. It is designed for simple, intuitive operation without the need for electrical components.
Differentiated-density foam uses varying levels of firmness throughout the cushion to provide targeted support. It ensures the seat remains supportive where you need it most while offering a softer, more comfortable feel for long-term lounging.
When fully extended, the chair reaches a depth of 55 inches. You should ensure you have at least 21 inches of clearance in front of the chair beyond its standard 34-inch depth to allow for the full reclining motion.
Genuine Italian leather offers a timeless look that develops a unique patina over time but requires occasional conditioning. Fabrics and microfibers are generally easier to spot-clean and often provide a softer, more textured feel, making them ideal for high-traffic living areas.
Yes, the high backrest is specifically engineered to provide full head and neck support. It is well-suited for taller users who require a chair that supports the entire length of the spine.
