Electric Recliner

Electric recliners have that added challenge of ensuring they are working perfectly as well as looking fantastic. The terracotta fabric chosen really revived the look of this tired old chair.

I am most grateful to Plumbs for the very good job they did on the chair and for such a generous sample sent immediately on request. My husband and myself are so thrilled.
