# Why You Might Want to Consider a Recliner (7 Great Reasons)
Recliners aren't quite new. In fact, it is said that Napoleon III had the first reclining chair in the 1800s.
However, recliners have evolved significantly over time, particularly in recent years, to the point where the term recliner and the concept of reclining are about all that remains of the original.
So, if you haven't seen, sat in, or considered a recliner in a while, you might want to reconsider.
Here are seven reasons for this:
## 1. They are at ease.
Nothing like stating the obvious, but this really is one of the biggest reasons everyone loves a [best recliner chair](https://www.pensionsweek.com/best/best-recliner-chairs/).
You just can’t beat the advances made in comfort, and if Napoleon III would have had the opportunity to sit in today’s options, he would definitely have had more than one recliner!
## 2. These aren't just any seats.
Everyone benefits from the addition of a reclining sofa or sectional to the mix. There will be no more wrangling over who gets to sit in the recliner.
Dad can nap while the kids watch movies and mom reads a good book, all while sitting in a seat that is adjusted to their comfort level.
## 3. They're popular among dads.
We've said it before, but with Father's Day just around the corner (June 18th), it's worth reiterating.
Recliners are popular among fathers. Just a thought.
## 4. They're awesome.
Of course, we think all of our chairs are fantastic. Some, on the other hand, literally rock, and a chair that is comfy, reclines, and rocks wins our vote!
## 5. Everybody has a different style.
Unlike in the past, when you had to pick between comfort and style, you may now have both. Whatever your own style, there's a recliner that will complement it.
While it's impossible to show off all of our styles in a blog post, you can get a sense of what I'm talking about by browsing our website.
## 6. They have a lot of clout.
It's never been easier or more convenient to satisfy your comfort cravings thanks to innovative technology. Power recline and adjustable power headrests make it simple to get comfy, while USB charging outlets make things even more convenient.
## 7. It's simple to customise.
With so many recliner options to pick from, finding exactly what you're searching for at our showrooms may be a breeze.
However, if you'd prefer your recliner to be upholstered in a different fabric, be a little smaller or larger, or have a different finish, custom order options (custom option availability varies) can simply be customised.
So far, we believe these are seven compelling reasons to consider a recliner, but we'd love to hear your thoughts. Do you have a recliner in your home? Do you want one? What is the most important reason for you?
