Recently, we tested the Lexicon Rocker Recliner Chair in the living room, and it met high expectations concerning comfort and design. The reclining system is very quiet, which makes changing to a comfortable position very easy. The rocking feature is an excellent boost to the relaxation process. It has a rich brown leather finish that is luxurious and warms the area, as well.

But if you lack space, this recliner’s dimension may become more of a concern. Moreover, it is also important if you want to ensure that the exterior of your car remains in its glossy, leatherish form throughout.

The Acme Omarion Faux Leather Power Recliner is a contemporary recliner that is ideal for individuals who usually look for comfort and easy control furniture designs. This is a suitable piece of furniture to blend into modern homes, attributed to its fake leather interior parts and power recline function.

We were able to test the Acme Omarion Faux Leather Power Recliner, and it does not disappoint when it comes to both style and comfort. The power recline is also very silent, and the user does not find it hard to get to the desired reclining position. The look of genuine leather is complemented by a smooth surface that does not have a strong effect on children or pets and is quite easy to clean.

However, you have to plug a plug into this recliner, which limits its position. Its surface is made of faux leather, which will feel hot after a number of hours of usage.

Factors to Consider Before Purchasing a Brown Leather Recliner Chair

Like most recliner chairs, brown leather recliner chairs are an excellent addition to your home. There are a few things you should consider before getting the recliner you want. It is important to note that a well-made recliner will last you for years. So it’s worth it to put in some elbow and leg grease to find the best of what you are looking for. Here are some things you should look for:

a) The Right Shade of Brown

While brown is a neutral color that can go with almost anything, there are different shades of brown. You have to know which shade of brown best complements your furniture. This means you can also use lighter shades of brown with darker shades of brown to create a beautiful accent.

Furthermore, you should always ensure that the brown shade you want is the brown shade you get. If you don’t love it, it is not advisable to buy it, since you will be wasting money on something you don’t like. Either way, a brown leather recliner is an absolute upgrade to any space.

b) Structure and Design

Don’t just go for aesthetics when selecting one of those recliner chairs you have always wanted. Inspecting its design and structure is important if you want your brown leather recliner chair to last and provide adequate lumbar support. Remember, if the chair is well-balanced on a flat level, its recliner mechanism is probably faulty.

Additionally, if the padding isn’t high-density foam, you will have a problem after you break the chair in. Low-quality foam padding usually starts to give way after a few months of use, and you don’t get as much support as you normally would. Furthermore, if the metal frame is made cheaply, the chair will collapse under heavy use.

c) Upholstery Material

When it comes to leather recliner chairs, different types of leather fall under this category. There are options like faux or vegan leather on the market. While these materials are not real leather or contain very little leather, they are made to be strong. They can take the stress of everyday wear and tear, so don’t give up on them.

However, if you are set on a pure leather recliner chair, you will spend upwards of $800. Furthermore, leather lasts long, even decades, so investing in a real leather recliner chair won’t be a waste. Either way, both options can fit any budget.

d) Type of Recliner Chair

There are different types of recliner chairs. The most common type is a “lay-flat” recliner that returns when lying on it. Of course, you must also have come across wall huggers in your search for a leather recliner. Wall huggers are similar to lay-flat recliners but can’t lay flat.

On the other hand, you also have swivel and glider recliners capable of turning 360° and moving backward and forwards. As you are on your leather recliner journey, you will also come across power recliners. They are connected to an electric outlet to function, and the majority come with heating and massage functions. 

e) Budget

Finally, your budget determines what type of recliner chair you can get. A budget but well-made recliner will set you back at least $300. So you must be willing to spend much more if you go for all the bells and whistles on a Barcalounger. Furthermore, you also have to consider which bells and whistles are worth your money and which ones aren’t.

Additionally, you will find handsome traditional-style leather recliners that do away with all the bells and whistles. They are also pricey since they maintain a vintage yet timeless look that would not become an eyesore even in a decade.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Best Brown Leather Recliner Chairs

i) Are brown leather recliners expensive?

Yes, they are, compared to regular seats. However, you can still get a great brown leather recliner to fit your budget and reap the benefits of having a recliner chair.

ii) Are leather recliner chairs worth it?

Yes, they are. Leather is tough and durable. Not to mention very beautiful and an excellent investment for your living room or bedroom. However, keep in mind that leather is expensive, and you might not have the budget for it.

iii) What goes with a brown leather recliner?

Neutral colors like brown are usually the best option since they go with most home décor. It is recommended to avoid patterns to ensure they won’t take away from other pieces of furniture in the house. Brown is a neutral color that can go with anything.

iv) How do I maintain and clean a brown leather recliner?

While leather recliner chairs are durable, maintaining and cleaning them might be tricky, especially if you have pets and children. Most of the time, you can get away with using a damp cloth to wipe the leather recliner down. You can also use a handheld vacuum to suck up little dust or food particles stuck in the crevices.

v) How long do brown leather recliners typically last?

Power recliners tend to last longer (between 10-20 years, depending on the frequency of use) because there is no wear and tear on the motor compared to the manual parts of a traditional recliner. Furthermore, the motor is usually covered under warranty by the manufacturers. Manual recliners get more wear due to constant use and last 7-10 years.

vi) Where can you buy brown leather recliners?

It generally depends on your location and convenience. Going to a furniture store has perks since you can see what you’re buying in real time. However, if you prefer online shopping, then purchasing a recliner online might be a good idea.
