FAQs About Power Recliners
1. What is a power recliner?
A power recliner is a motorized chair or sofa that reclines at the push of a button, offering effortless comfort compared to manual recliners. Many models include power headrests, lumbar support, and USB charging ports.
2. How does a power recliner work?
It uses an electric motor (or multiple motors in dual/triple power models) to adjust the backrest, footrest, and sometimes the headrest or lumbar area. Controls are usually buttons on the side or a remote.
3. Do I need special wiring or outlets?
No. Power recliners typically plug into a standard 110–120V household outlet. Some models also offer a rechargeable battery pack option, so you don’t need visible cords.
4. What happens if the power goes out?
Most quality power recliners have a manual reset feature or a battery backup to return the chair to its upright position in case of a power outage.
5. How long does a power recliner last?
With proper use and care, a power recliner can last 10–15 years. The motors are designed for durability, but their lifespan depends on usage, fabric type, and maintenance.
6. Are power recliners safe for children and seniors?
Yes. Power recliners are designed with smooth, slow movements for safety. Many also have child-lock features. Seniors appreciate them for ease of use and comfort.
7. What are the benefits of dual or triple power recliners?
Single Power: Controls the footrest.
Dual Power: Controls footrest + headrest.
Triple Power: Controls footrest, headrest + lumbar support.
This provides more customization for comfort and ergonomic support.
8. How do I clean and maintain a power recliner?
Vacuum fabric regularly to remove dust.
Use a damp cloth or mild upholstery cleaner for spot cleaning.
For leather, use a conditioner every few months.
Keep liquids, food, and pets away to prevent stains/damage.
Avoid overloading the USB port or pulling the power cord.
9. Can power recliners hold more weight than manual recliners?
Most power recliners are built with sturdy frames and can typically support 250–350 lbs per seat, depending on the model. Heavy-duty options are available for higher weight capacities.
10. Do power recliners come with a warranty?
Yes. At ARV Furniture, all power recliners include a six-month warranty, covering motors and mechanisms. With proper care, they can last far beyond the warranty period, and we often provide service even after the warranty.
