Some of those factors are: height and angle of the seat back and depth of the seat. Softness and bounce in recliner chairs is achieved by all sharp metal or wood objects being smoothed. Seat back should also be free of bumps and hard spots. Motorized lift chairs allow you to gently move from a sitting position to a reclining position or a sitting position to a standing position. The lifting motion on motorized recliner chairs is usually achieved with a push of a button on a hand control Frame construction on recliner chairs is also very important. The frame should be constructed of a Kiln dried hard wood, (oak, maple and ash are most commonly used) steel, plastic and laminated boards to prevent warping. A good frame is joined by using corner blocks and dowels, glued and screwed together. The frame on a recliner chair should also feel heavy and balanced. The legs should be squared and sturdy to prevent any wobbling in the recliner. Recliner chairs can be constructed of three different mechanisms. The first recliner mechanism is a two-way mechanism that allows the recliner to open up into a full reclining position or with the footrest partially extended. These particular recliner chairs require significant wall space behind them. The Wall Lounger or Wall Savers is a multi purpose mechanism that allows recliner chairs to open forward so that the recliner chair can be placed closer to the wall. These recliner chair mechanisms will be opened with a handle or button. The back will be reclined by pushing on the arms. With motorized recliner chairs all of this is accomplished at the push of a button. Motorized recliner chairs due come in wall hugger styles. The rocker mechanism is a multi purpose mechanism that allows the recliner chair to rock until such time as the ottoman is opened. These style recliner chairs also require a lot of space behind them.
