Recliner Sofas
There's a particular kind of comfort that only a recliner delivers, taking the weight off your legs and supporting your back at exactly the angle you want it. At Loom Loft, our recliner sofas range from simple manual designs to fully powered ranges with adjustable headrests, and several are modular so individual seats recline independently. Most are offered in a choice of fabrics and leathers, and many ranges also include a matching chair.

+Manual, power, riser or comfort plus
The options form a fairly clear ladder. A manual recliner uses a lever or a push back action, costs least and has nothing to plug in or go wrong. A power recliner moves the backrest and footrest at the touch of a button, which is easier to fine-tune and much kinder if you have limited strength in your hands.
Beyond that, powered ranges add separate control of the headrest, sometimes described as a comfort plus specification, which matters if you read or watch television from the sofa rather than just resting. A power riser goes furthest, tilting forward to help you to your feet, and is worth considering for anyone who finds standing from a low seat difficult. The Micano range illustrates the full ladder well, offered as fixed, manual, power and power riser in the same design, and our recliner sofa guide sets out the differences.
Reclining in a room that isn't against a wall
Recliners need clearance behind them to open, which catches people out in smaller rooms, so it's worth measuring from the back of the sofa to the wall as well as the footprint. Some ranges have wall-hugging actions that need less space than you'd expect.
Powered designs also need to reach a socket, which is a real constraint in an open-plan room where the sofa floats away from the walls. The Capua range answers this neatly with a rechargeable battery option, so a powered recliner can sit anywhere in the room without a cable crossing the floor. Its electric option also moves the headrest and seat together for finer support.
Reclining without giving up the shape you want
Reclining used to mean accepting a bulkier look, and that's no longer true. Several ranges build the mechanism into cleaner contemporary frames, and the Suffield and Tempest ranges both offer reclining across fabrics and leathers without the heavy profile.
Modularity is the other development worth knowing about. The Bolero range and the Turin range are both fully modular with power recliner options, so you can specify which seats in a run recline and which stay fixed. Modular sofas explains how the pieces work, and for a single reclining seat rather than a sofa there's recliner chairs. A matching footstool suits the fixed designs in these ranges.
