Added new recliners

Factory lounge rockers were heavy and didn't recline. I had ottomans to prop our feet on, but they took up too much room. I got these recliners from Wally World for $150 each. They're a couple inches wider, but lighter.

They are stored on the sofa, as were the previous ones. Factory strap keeps them from moving.

our factory rockers went into the rec room in the house and the ekornes recliner and my nice leather recliner went into the trailer. MUCH nicer.

I need to make an upgrade on my chair. Looked around a little. Did you have to disassemble the chairs to get them in?

My Ekornes (sp?) was a piece of cake, they are basically a smaller swivel rocker with seperate footstool, very high quality and now way to expensive. Not so about 15 years ago when we bought it.

The Big leather recliner fit going in sideways with help from DS and some care.

I learned that most of your recliners come apart. The reclining part of it just slides off. I was pleasantly surprised when I was taught that and shown it. Most the men I know didn't know it either.

Had to turn them sideways and go in head first, but they went in easily.
