i never wanted a recliner. ever. something too decadent about sitting in a chair and flipping up leg rest and leaning way back. come on! sitting is plenty comfortable enough.
but enter my wife...she wants one. and my wife can fall asleep in a single seater upholstered chair, rolled up in a ball. a recliner will be like NyQuil PM for her. lights out!
we went to Lazy Boy this weekend. the level of comfort is off the charts! they are huge bulbous hunks of furniture. i daresay "ugly". you are not finding modern, mid century in a lazy boy store. haha. the couches are gigantic fixtures. cupholders and everything. pockets for TV remotes. built in heat, massage functions! how comfortable do we need to be?
oh well. 5 month waiting period before our recliner shows up. we opted for delivery since i refuse to move furniture that flips open like a multi-tool.
it starts.

. tired old bones. my wife bets me i will paper/scissor/rock her for the recliner.
