Cuddle Recliner By Steven Rupp on Sep 11, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

My new "Cuddle Recliner" has quickly become my favorite place to sit in the whole house.

I had never heard of this type of chair before, until I saw it at Big Lots. It was $399.99 (Compared to $499.99). It is a super plush, extra-wide RECLINER. It's size is in between a regular recliner and a loveseat. As the name implies, it is for 2 people to sit close together and "cuddle". It might be a tight squeeze for 2 adults (maybe that's the intended purpose!). But the ads depict an adult and a small child sitting comfortably side-by-side reading a book. Either one of these scenarios is a great use of this chair, or even maybe snuggling with your pet in front of the TV.

However, I'm a big guy, with a twisted back, so it's nice for me to sprawl out by myself in, and get comfortable in all types of positions. I love it.

It's very well cushioned and sturdily made. There's a solid frame, re-inforced construction, and heavy duty nylon used in the seams. It measures 56L x 44H x 41D, and comes in several nice colors.

Highly recommended for large people and cuddlers everywhere!
