Electric Recliner Sofas

How do electric recliner sofas work?

Electric recliners need to be plugged into a power outlet to function, as they use a motorised mechanism to adjust positions at the touch of a button. Unlike manual recliners that require a lever or physical effort, electric recliners offer a smooth, effortless reclining experience. Many models also feature convenient extras like cupholders, console storage, and built-in USB ports, enhancing comfort and functionality. They can easily switch between upright, partially, and fully reclined positions, providing customised relaxation.

Take a look at our recliner buying guide to help you find the perfect one.

Do electric recliners require unique power outlets?

No, a standard household outlet is suitable and provides the power an electric recliner needs. However, you should use a surge protector to prevent damage and ensure the recliner is positioned near an accessible and direct power outlet for easy plug-in. Extension cords may not support the power requirement, so we advise against them. 

Are electric recliner sofas safe for children and pets?

Yes! While they are safe for both little ones and furry friends, we recommend taking some extra precautions:

· Keep cords secure – Ensure any power cords are tucked away to avoid tripping or biting hazards.

· Supervised use – Make sure that you teach your children how to use the controls and that no pets chew the components.

· Recline slow - When reclining up and down, Be mindful of little ones or pets to reduce the risk of sudden closing.

What styles and colours are electric recliner sofas available in?
