If you love the comfort of being able to kick back in a recliner at the end of your long day, but hate the confinement of a narrow chair, you will love the chair and a half recliner. As you might guess from the name, this is an extra wide recliner. It is perfect for big or tall people. It can be great for two moderately sized people to snuggle or to seat a parent and one or two children for that all-important bedtime reading.
