Is Jennifer Leather's the best store to buy a reclining chair?

Question:What should I look for in a recliner?

Answers:
I think Ethan Allen, Broyhill, Thomasville and Lazy Boy are better but you should look for a solid wood lumber (furniture grade or kiln dryed) with corners glued, blocked and stapled. Look for the stripes and patterns to match. Cushion core should be low melt fiber and at least a 1.8 density foam. An all metal drop in unified steel box and a infinite position mechanism. You should not feel any sharp corners. Knead the arm and back, you should not feel any sharp edges and the back should be smooth with fill.

The coil should be 8 way tied or sinuous coil.

There are many different grades of leather. Choose the look that you want. Talk to them about all of the properties and if you have a cat, consider a top grain, which already shows marrs. A top coated, shiny finish will show claw marks easily.

Think about the future appearance of your leather. Do you want a worn in look? Leather needs maintenance. Do you have children? Talk to the rep. and educate yourself. Go to other stores and get advice from them. Not all sales people are well informed. Absorb and base your decision on how you filter the infromation. Look up leather mainenance online and read about the different grades.
