A couple years ago we bought new furniture for the first time in nearly 30 years. The main concern was the recliners.The love seat has 2 and so does the sofa. I have a very bad back and bad knees. DH is bed bound for the most part so when I am able to get him up and out of bed the recliners make all the difference. It took a lot of looking and months of searching to find what was just right for our needs. Walking is not easy for me and depending on the weather I can walk or need my scooter. It make take more to get me from car to chair to the furniture stores than I like and when I was shopping I had someone with me but I took my time to find just the right pieces. I had to wait almost 2 months to get the sofa as it was back ordered. It was well worth the wait. We are just hopeful it will last for another 30 years like our last pieces did. Please get out there and sit in and try before you buy. You won't regret it in the long run.
