"Wall hugging"? Do you mean one that, when leaned back, does not go back? Not sure what you mean with the rollers.... You want to move the recliner forward on rollers to be able to recline?
Yes, I've heard them referred to a wall hugging recliners. They can be placed as close as 2" or 3" to the wall and not hit it upon reclining.
My slide is very narrow, too narrow to fit the depth of a recliner. I would need to fabricate a platform deep enough for the recliner to fit. It would need some kind of roller mechanism on the front edge of the platform so it did not gouge or scrape the floor as it moves in and out.
I would scrap the old jack-knife sofa and replace it with a recliner. I was hoping someone on RV.Net might have already attempted something similar and could offer some tips.
