Recliner. Friday , January 12th , 2018 - 23:45:34 PM
You can now find a diverse range of recliners available on the market today. Sorting through this vast array can sometimes be quite daunting. For this reason, we have put together some tips. There are many new recliners available that has automatic and electronic features. Additionally, it is important to consider price, comfort, style, fit and the level of automation. The most basic function of a recliner is to recline back. Todays recliners have motorized controls to lower the chair back and raise the leg rest. Of course, there are still those operated by a manual lever on the side. Recliners need to fit in with the room that you want to place them. Placement of your chair should achieve your goals of what you want to do while in your recliner. You also want to consider the decoration of your room and other furniture.
In the late eighteen hundreds, a number of designs emerged for motion chairs. Typically made of wood, with a padded seat and back, these early recliners may have been more conversation piece than a furniture staple like a chair or sofa. Designs from France and America often featured what was referred to as document or a book holder. Two American cousins, Knabush and Shoemaker, are credited with gaining the patent on a wooden recliner. There was nothing remarkable about the design as it resembled a wooden beach recliner. The difference between this and other recliners was the patent. Issued in nineteen twenty eight, the patent led to the founding of LayZBoy. It would not be until nineteen thirty one that the cousins would patent an upholstered model with a mechanical movement. It would not be until nineteen forty seven that a competing company would add a built in foot rest. The addition of a foot rest would become a standard part of recliner design.
If three position power recliners lack flexibility, one can step up to the more versatile and expensive infinite position recliner. Gaining more bells and whistles, the primary difference is the number of motors. Two and three position lift chairs have one motor to do everything limiting flexibility and precise position selecting. An infinite position recliner has two motors, one to raise the foot section and another to recline and lift the recliner. An example why one would want an infinite position recliner over others types of lift chairs would be someone needing to operate the feet section independently of the back. This allows one to raise the feet leaving the chair seated in the upright position more suitable for eating and reading.
