What is a zero-gravity recliner?

It is a power recliner that tilts back until your knees are about level with your heart, spreading weight along the back instead of loading the tailbone. The Parker House reaches that position through its powered recline.

How much room does it need behind it?

Plan for several inches of clearance so the back can travel through the full recline. The chair is 83 inches deep when extended, so check the wall distance before you place it.

Does it need to be plugged in?

Yes. The power recline runs on electricity, so you need an outlet within reach of the cord. There is no manual release for everyday use.

Is it good for back pain?

The reclined zero-gravity position takes pressure off the lower back, which is why buyers with back trouble choose it. It is not a medical device, so try the position before relying on it.

Can I move it through a normal doorway?

It is a large single-seat chair, so measure doorways and hallways before delivery. The frame does not break down like a modular sofa.

How do I care for the gray upholstery?

Vacuum it regularly and blot spills promptly rather than rubbing. Check the care tag on the fabric for the approved cleaner before using anything stronger.
