The Sloped Recliner has beveled arms that angle gently downward, a back at 41 inches, and a 32-inch width that sits in a reading corner without crowding it. The silhouette is decided: not traditional, not stark. It is for the buyer who knows what they want the room to look like.
Reclining is a one-step handle release. The trigger sits on the inside of the right arm; pull it and the back reclines while the footrest extends in one motion, no cushions to remove. To return upright, push back against the resistance. No power, no battery. The manual version saves roughly $800 over the Sloped Power and has nothing to charge or maintain. If you have good mobility and tend to recline fully rather than stopping at an intermediate angle, the manual mechanism is completely sufficient.
The seat is 20.75 inches wide and 19 inches deep, at a seat height of 19 inches. The foam is CertiPUR-certified medium-density, high-resilience cold-cured: firm enough to support you through a long reading session, not so soft that you sink and can't get out. The headrest adjusts in four ways, both tilting and telescoping, so you can position it for reading upright or supported lounging fully reclined. When reclined, the chair needs 63 inches of clearance from wall to footrest tip.
The frame is solid spruce with mortise-and-tenon joinery and birch plywood panels, FSC-certified wood. Made in the EU, made to order. Lead time is four to six weeks. Upholstery options run to 100+ fabrics and 100+ leathers, all fixed (non-removable covers), chosen at point of sale.
Choose the Sloped Manual if you want a clean tapered arm and are comfortable reaching for a handle to recline. Step up to the Sloped Power if you want to adjust your position from fully upright to partially reclined with a button press, particularly useful if joint stiffness or a back issue makes a manual mechanism uncomfortable. If the silhouette itself is your primary criteria, compare the Sloped arm against the Rolled (softer, rounded arm), the Track (lower arm, narrower at 29.5 inches), or the Welted (slightly lower back height, 2-way headrest only).
