Which is better for a small living room?

The Allen. It is 71 in wide versus 87 in for the Huron, and both need only 2 in of back clearance to recline.

Is the Huron worth the extra money?

If you want power recline, a drop-down table with cup holders and a wireless charger, yes. At $800.00 versus $609.99 as of November 3, 2026, you pay about $190 for those extras and 16 in more width.

Which is easier to clean?

The Allen's microfiber spot cleans with upholstery shampoo or dry-cleaning solvent. Faux leather like the Huron's wipes down easily but can crack with age.

Do both recline without hitting the wall?

Yes. Both list 2 in of required back clearance, so either works close to a wall.

Both use plywood frames with metal-reinforced seats and 300 lb per-seat capacity. The Allen's manual recline has fewer parts to fail; the Huron's motors are the main long-term wear item.

Does either have cup holders?

Only the Huron, through its drop-down center table, which also holds a wireless charger and magazine pocket.
