Will It Fit?

SKU: 18505074

The inviting softness and updated family-friendly design of the Joshua rocker recliner makes it a perennial contender for the title Best Seat in the House. This transitional style piece is upholstered in a soothing gray knitted fabric. Complementing the tapered curve shape that makes up the base of the seat are a plush double-channeled seat back and large pillow arms. The 3-position footrest and 16-position ratcheting recline mechanism can be engaged independently of one another, allowing users to find their own perfect combination. When not reclining, the tranquil rocking function makes this the most soothing seat in the house whether or not the footrest is in use. Upholstery: 100% Polyester.

Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.

What are the benefits of a 16-position ratcheting reclining mechanism?

Unlike standard recliners that offer only one or two positions, this model features a 16-position ratcheting mechanism and a 3-position footrest that can be engaged independently. This allows you to fine-tune your comfort—for example, you can keep the chair in a rocking position while the footrest is elevated, or recline the back fully for a nap. This level of customization ensures a "personalized fit" that can help alleviate pressure points for users of various heights.


Is the fabric durable enough for a home with children or pets?

This recliner is upholstered in 100% polyester knitted fabric, which is an excellent choice for active households. Polyester is highly valued for its durability, as it naturally resists stretching, shrinking, and abrasion. The knitted texture offers an inviting softness that feels cozy yet stands up well to daily use. For local shoppers in humid climates, polyester is particularly advantageous because it is more resistant to moisture and mildew than natural fibers.


How should I clean and maintain the upholstery to keep it looking new?

Our care guidelines for synthetic fabrics recommend regular maintenance to preserve the life of the piece. You should vacuum the fabric weekly with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and debris that can cause premature wear. For accidental spills, polyester responds well to immediate blotting with a clean, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, the use of mild soap and warm water is generally recommended, but we always advise checking the manufacturer’s instructions on the product's law tag for specific cleaning codes.


Is a rocker recliner a good choice for a nursery or a small apartment?

Yes, this model is highly suitable for both. The tranquil rocking function makes it a favorite for nurseries, providing a soothing motion for both parent and child. Its transitional design and 40-inch width allow it to fit comfortably into the corner of an apartment living room or a bedroom suite without appearing bulky. The plush pillow-top arms and double-channeled back provide the long-term support needed for late-night feedings or extended periods of relaxation.


How much space is needed for this recliner to fully operate?

With dimensions of 40"W x 40"D x 42.50"H, this recliner is designed to provide a generous seating area while maintaining a manageable footprint. As a rocker recliner, it requires adequate clearance behind the chair to allow for both the rocking motion and the extension of the reclining back. Based on our expertise with manual recliners, we recommend placing the chair approximately 10 to 12 inches away from any wall or furniture to ensure the ratcheting mechanism can reach its full range of comfort without obstruction.


Does this recliner provide specific support for the lower back?

This model is specifically engineered for lumbar and neck support, featuring a plush, double-channeled pillow back. This design mirrors the natural curve of the spine, providing targeted comfort that remains consistent whether you are sitting upright or fully reclined. The high 20-inch seat height also makes it easier to transition in and out of the chair, which is a significant benefit for users with mobility concerns or chronic back pain.
