How To Pick The Right Sofa Recliner Size
If you are planning to buy furniture online, these are the ways you can select the best recliner size without trying it out in person.
Taking your body's measurements using a tape measure is a smart first step. You need to measure the distance from your heel to the knee and then from your heel to the tailbone. These numbers will inform the seat height and seat depth that will fit your body the best.

How do you arrange reclining sofas?
The first thing to consider when arranging multiple reclining sofas in a room is how much space is available. For example, a living room may offer more space for arranging than a bonus room.

Footrests that continuously hit each other when reclined out may cause damage to your reclining sofas over time and are a dangerous tripping hazard for anyone walking around the room.
