Know before you buy
The zero-gravity position reclines the chair to a specific angle that elevates your feet above your heart. This helps distribute your body weight evenly, which reduces pressure on your spine and joints for a sensation of weightlessness.
You need a minimum clearance of 6 inches from the wall to allow the chair to reach its full recline position. When fully extended, the total depth of the recliner is 68 inches.
Yes, the integrated power switch allows you to adjust the headrest and lumbar support separately from the main recline function. This lets you customize the chair's support to match your specific posture needs.
The chair is crafted using a combination of top-grain leather on the primary seating surfaces and a matching vinyl on the sides and back. This construction provides the durability and feel of premium leather in high-contact areas while maintaining a consistent look.
Yes, as long as the recliner is plugged into a wall outlet, the integrated USB port remains active. You can charge your devices regardless of whether the chair is in an upright or reclined position.
The Wendell recliner weighs 159 pounds. Due to its weight and the internal power mechanisms, it is a substantial piece of furniture that is best suited for a permanent spot in your room rather than frequent relocation.
