Your father deserves the best this Father’s Day, and that means only one thing when it comes to furniture: recliners.
How does one pick out a recliner, though? How do you wine and dine and find the chair that is perfect to recline? Let us guide you on this journey to find just what dad is looking for this year!
Room for Relaxation
Before you go any further toward getting your father the best present ever, you need to do a little homework. First, figure out how much room there is for the new recliner! Secretly scope out the living room or den or wherever you think he will want to put it. This will help make sure that the recliner you get will fit and will also help you narrow down your many choices.
The Universe of Upholstery
The next decision you have to make is what you want the chair to be made out of. You don’t want to cheap out on your dad – remember all those baseball games he sat through to cheer you on even though you sat on the bench? Make sure his new recliner is comfortable to sit on.
Leather and microfiber are two solid choices that will last a long time, ensuring that dad can put his feet up for many moons to come. They come in different colors and styles as well, which means you can get one perfectly suited to your dad’s tastes.
It’s All About That Base
In addition to stylistic differences, there are a few practical things to keep in mind as you shop for a recliner. Recliner bases, for instance, can make a big difference in the way the chair looks and feels.
For example, you could go with a swivel recliner that rotates around its base, or you could get a rocker glider which, well, it rocks back and forth. Duh. Which do you think dad would prefer better? If you can think of any sneaky ways of asking him – or even getting him to sit and try one out without ruining the surprise -- go for it!
To Massage or not to Massage?
You may have thought that recliners were all one and the same as your standard, run-of-the-mill easy chair.
You thought wrong.
Recliners can also do a wide array of things: They can heat, they can provide massages, and they can even recline automatically. Get the rest of the kids to go in on a recliner together to get the best options you can find!
After all this, there will only be one best seat in the house: Dad’s! And if you are looking for any other new furniture to go with your recliner, stop in today! One of our furniture experts will be sure to help you find exactly what you are looking for.
