3 Reclining Sofas That Actually Earn Their Spot in Your Living Room
A reclining sofa is basically a living room glow-up with built-in permission to actually relax. It's the piece that transforms your space from a "place where furniture lives" to a "place where you actually want to spend time". The right one gives you the best of both worlds: a stylish anchor for your space and the kind of comfort that makes you cancel plans (responsibly).
But not all reclining sofas are created equal. Some prioritize cutting-edge technology and immersive features. Others focus on wellness-driven design that supports your body as much as your binge-watching habits. And some simply nail the fundamentals—plush comfort, durability, and accessibility—without unnecessary frills. Below are three standout reclining sofas from Furniture Row—each with its own vibe—so you can match your space, your lifestyle, and your preferred level of "do not disturb".
1 - The Conway Reclining Sofa: Seriously Affordable, Surprisingly Cozy
The Conway Reclining Sofa is proof that you can get real reclining comfort without committing to a luxury-level price tag. It’s an easy win for everyday living rooms, first apartments, bonus rooms, and “we just need something comfy that works” spaces.
What Makes It Different?
- Affordable Comfort: Priced at $599, the Conway brings real reclining comfort at an easy-to-love price point—perfect when the budget says “be smart,” but the living room says “be cozy.”
- Supportive, Sink-In Feel: With triple roll high backs, pad-over/pillow top arms, and cushioning built for everyday lounging, it’s the kind of sofa that makes “just sitting down” turn into a full reset.
- Performance Fabric: Upholstered in solution-dyed, UV-resistant performance fabric that’s designed to be family-friendly and easy to clean, so it holds up to real life (snacks, pets, spills, repeat).
Who It's For (and why you’ll love it daily)
- The Conway is perfect for budget-minded shoppers who still want their living room to feel pulled together—and for anyone furnishing a space where comfort matters most.
- You’ll use it every day because it’s the kind of easygoing recliner that works for weeknight TV, weekend lounging, and those “sit down for a second” moments that turn into a full-blown unwind.
Style(s) It Plays Well With
- Casual contemporary: clean-lined, casual pieces with contemporary appeal—perfect for an unfussy living room.
- Family-friendly spaces: easygoing seating that feels right at home in high-traffic rooms (kids, pets, snacks, repeat).
- Transitional interiors: bridges traditional and contemporary styles, so it blends naturally with warm woods and mixed finishes.
2 - Voyager Leather Power Reclining Sofa: Zero Gravity Comfort Meets Polished Leather Style
The Voyager Leather Power Reclining Sofa is your “lights down, feet up” upgrade—built for everyday lounging, movie marathons, and the kind of comfort that makes the rest of the room fade out.
What Makes It Different?
- Power Reclining Comfort: Effortless power reclining lets you dial in your perfect position with the touch of a button—no pushing, no adjusting, no getting up once you’ve settled in.
- Zero Gravity Recline: The Voyager’s Zero Gravity recline is the main event, giving you that weightless, floaty feel that turns “just sitting down” into real-deal relaxation.
- Two Leather Color Options: Finished in a sleek leather exterior in brown or grey, it brings elevated style that still feels totally livable (aka, not too precious for real life).
Who It’s For (and why you’ll love it daily)
- The Voyager is perfect for comfort-first loungers who still want their space to look pulled together—especially if your idea of a good night involves a cozy blanket, a queued-up watchlist, and staying put.
- You’ll use it every day because power reclining keeps comfort easy, Zero Gravity makes extended lounging feel next-level, and the leather look instantly upgrades the whole room without trying too hard.
Style(s) It Plays Well With
- Contemporary and modern living rooms: streamlined leather seating that looks sharp in modern spaces.
- Sophisticated transitional spaces: polished, versatile, and easy to pair with warm woods and transitional décor.
- Elevated game-day lounge: refined enough for a formal living room, but comfy (and recline-ready) for turning the space into a full-on football zone when kickoff hits.
3 - The Vibe Home Theater Power Sofa: Built-In Sound for Big-Screen Nights
The Vibe Home Theater Power Sofa is the kind of seating that makes your living room feel like the best seat in the house—because the entertainment is built right in. It’s made for movie marathons, game-day energy, and everyday streaming… with power reclining comfort and home-theater sound to match.
What Makes It Different?
- Immersive Sound: With built-in speakers and home-theater sound, the Vibe turns “press play” into a full-room experience—no extra speaker setup required.
- Power Reclining + Zero Gravity Power reclining makes it easy to shift from upright to fully relaxed, while the Zero Gravity feature takes weightless comfort to the next level.
- Comfort upgrades, still included: Heat and massage bring that extra “ahhh” factor when you want it, while the drop-down table (plus integrated cup holders) keeps snacks, remotes, and drinks in easy reach.
Who It’s For (and why you’ll love it daily)
- The Vibe is perfect for anyone who wants their sofa to pull double duty: everyday comfort and a built-in home-theater moment.
- You’ll use it constantly because power reclining makes comfort instant, the integrated speakers make everything you watch feel bigger, and the drop-down table/cup holders keep your setup clean (no extra clutter, no extra furniture).
Style(s) It Plays Well With
- Contemporary & modern: clean-lined and sleek, with a contemporary feel that doesn’t sacrifice comfort.
- Home theaters and media rooms: made for extended viewing with ergonomic support and immersive sound.
- Wellness-inspired spaces: a self-care-first lounge zone where furniture choices support real downtime.
Things to consider when styling and placing a reclining sofa
A reclining sofa can absolutely be a design asset—not just a comfort play. The key is planning for how it moves, how it looks in the room, and how it interacts with the pieces around it.
- Give it breathing room. Recliners need clearance behind and in front for full extension. If space is tight, float the sofa slightly forward and add a slim console table behind it to maintain flow without crowding.
- Balance the visual weight. Reclining sofas tend to read substantial, so offset them with lighter elements—open-leg coffee tables, airy accent chairs, or vertical floor lamps that draw the eye upward.
- Layer texture, not clutter. Keep styling intentional: one throw and two pillows (three max) is plenty. Mix textures—think chunky knit, woven fabric, and a smooth neutral—to add depth without fuss.
- Anchor with the right rug size. Choose a rug large enough for at least the front legs of the sofa to sit on it. This grounds the piece and makes the room feel designed, not just furnished.
- Make tech disappear. Power and USB features are great—visible cords aren’t. Plan cord routes with an outlet-hugging console, a side table with a basket, or discreet cord covers to keep the look clean.
