I’ve recently bought a recliner sofa and chair, costing far more than I should ever have paid…..

Shocked at how it’s made my lounge look like an old people’s home.

Any suggestions?

I keep looking at adverts for recliner chairs and walk in baths
sad. I really struggle when getting up from chairs and sofas these days. I was thinking that a black leather recliner chair would look more modern and then realised it would look like the ones dentists use!

I agree, recliner chairs and sofas don't look nice. Unfortunately we sometimes do need them. You need a huge throw that completely covers it up from top to bottom and front to back.

Fabric -covered powered recliners do look and feel more inviting. than leather. I have seen on Facebook really large throws, sofa -sized, that would totally cover up your powered recliner chair.

Two of those really large throws used together would disguise a recliner sofa.

I have had much the same problem problem with recliners.
