What Is a Wall Hugger Recliner?

After a long day, there is nothing quite like coming home to a plush, inviting recliner. Because of the amount of room a recliner chair can take up, though, owning a recliner hasn’t always been the most practical or feasible of ideas, especially for those living in smaller spaces – until now. Thanks to an innovative streamlined, yet still insanely comfortable, design, wallaway recliners bring you all the same irresistible lounging luxuries of owning a traditional recliner – without any of the bulk.

A wallaway recliner – also referred to as a wall hugger recliner or a wall saver recliner – is unique because it can be placed closer to a wall. This kind of design sits on a track, so as you recline back, the chair actually moves forward. In other words, you’re reclining away from the wall. Wallaway recliners are great space-savers, so they are perfect if you don’t have a lot of room but still want to recline.
