How to Choose Fabric Recliners

Recliners come in a wide variety of colors and designs, from pastel pink flowered designs to sleek modern designs in darker shades. With so many types out there, choosing the right recliner and buying one might seem difficult. Before you choose a recliner, you need to focus on your own taste and style, as well as the style of your room.

      Look around your room and get a feel for the style that you have. Then ask yourself if you want to continue that style, or give the room a new look. There are fabric recliners that fit all designs and styles, but you'll want one that fits your room and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.

      Create a budget by deciding how much you're able to spend on a recliner. Fabric recliners come in budget options as well as designer options that cost thousands of dollars. Look for a chair that fits your budget, but also works with the style of your room.

      Determine the amount of space you have in your room for the recliner. With the wide range of sizes, you can easily find one that fits the space in your room, whether it's a corner spot or a spot right next to the couch. Try measuring the size of a chair you're replacing, or measure your room and take into account how much space you want for the chair.

      Try out a few different recliners and judge each one based on the comfort. Recliners come in different sizes, but you want one that fits your body comfortably. Your feet should touch the ground when the chair's in rest and the back should hug your own back and offer support.

      Choose a fabric recliner based on the motion that you need. Recliners come in four basic styles in terms of motion: recline, swivel, glide and rock. You may find a fabric recliner that moves in all four directions, but most only incorporate one type of motion.
