Leather recliners

[ian_c]

I'm looking to buy 2 (real) leather recliners for our fifth wheel. I don't know the good, reputable manufacturers. If anyone has suggestions either for brands or for retail, I'd appreciate hearing about them.
With thanks,

After a fair amount of research we bought LazyBoy recliners in solid (not bonded ) leather. They have a lifetime warranty on the mechanism. After over 4 years they are holding up fine and looking good. Note that real leather does wrinkle and stretch some over time - but that is what leather does.
We had a Berkshire leather recliner in our motor home that has held up great for over six full timing years and four years in our house. We bought it at Sams Club for about a third of what the LazyBoys cost.

We got our leather recliners at Sam's club for $399.00 each. Good thing about Sam's or Costco if they ever go bad you can always return for a refund or replacement. Better than Lazyboy guarantee!

I've seen one in a mh magazine. Don't remember which one. By coincidence One of y Doctors has two in his waiting room put there for display. They are extremely comfortable and recline. They have a metal circular base and suspended in the middle from that. Doesn't seem to taek as much space as a lazy boy etc.
The leather was nice ans supple. The ones in his office were nice shade of beige to light brown. I don't remember the brand bu purposed to replace our in the coach with one. the spin and rock and recline

I get cloth recliners and use appropriately colored towels to cover the arms, back and seat. The mechanics wear out long before the fabric does then.

Unless you're familiar with leather and like it, leather can be hot and sticky in summer and cold in winter. Our Lazy Boy wall-huggers in cloth are very comfortable and are holding up well after years of use.

Thanks, were looking at ditching a Jacknife sofa for a pair of them.

Our trailer came with two leather Lazy Boy recliners. LOVE them.

Great for naps or sleeping when the spouse is snoring loudly.

Boy not to make you feel bad but I just went to a sale and the people had taken out 2 brand new leather recliners to make room for a dinette in their RV. Said he got tired of them taking up room in his garage. He was selling them for $50 bucks a piece!!

Check out Escappee's RV Club RV Market Forum and post an ad for looking for RV recliners. Many people end up taking them out for a dinette.

And from what I've seen the RV recliners are a little bit less wide than residential ones to accommodate what space there is for an RV.

Have two lazy boys at home in leather. Wish I had never spent the money. The frames have held up pretty good, but the leather has faded and looks bad. Get them in cloth. You will be much happier.

Have had good reports about Lazy Boy!
