Unique Features of the Charlotte High Leg Reclining Chair

The Charlotte High Leg Reclining Chair offers the perfect fusion of elegant design and functionality, making it an ideal choice for those who want to add both style and comfort to their living space.

This pushback recliner exudes the sophisticated look of a stationary chair while offering the luxurious comfort of a reclining seat, ensuring that you can relax in style without compromising your room's aesthetic.

Designed with flared, rolled arms, this high leg reclining chair exudes timeless elegance and charm. The smooth, rounded lines of the arms add a touch of softness to the design while maintaining a refined appearance.

These arms not only enhance the chair's visual appeal but also provide a comfortable resting spot for your arms, contributing to the overall cozy experience.

The decorative tall, tapered wood legs elevate the overall design, adding an upscale, modern touch. These legs lift the chair off the ground, providing a sleek and airy look that works beautifully in a variety of interior styles, from traditional to contemporary.

The wood finish adds warmth and sophistication, allowing this high leg recliner to complement a wide range of décor, while offering both sturdy support and an elevated, polished finish.

The high-quality foam back ensures that the pushback chair provides both comfort and support. The foam construction conforms to the contours of your back, offering a cushioned feel without sacrificing support.

The foam back maintains its shape over time, so you can enjoy lasting comfort while sitting upright or reclining.

The 2-position reclining mechanism allows you to adjust the high leg recliner chair to your preferred angle with ease. Simply push back to recline and find the perfect position to relax.

Charlotte High Leg Reclining Chair Size & Dimensions

Because of its shorter seat height, the Charlotte High Leg Reclining Chair is a great recliner for short people. It is particularly ideal for individuals who are between 5’4” and 5’9”.

It is important for you to know that height guidelines are not set in stone at La-Z-Boy South Texas. Different furniture fits everybody differently, which makes it most important to sit on the recliner yourself to see how it fits you.
