Pull Handle Recliner

A pull handle recliner is a slightly updated variation of the lever recliner, with a somewhat easier reclining function.

The pull handle is recessed into the side of the recliner and triggers the recline function when pulled, similar to some vehicle door handles.

Once pulled, the recliner footrest pops up to the reclined position faster than what a lever pull would, and then that back of the recliner can raise and lower by pushing into it with your body.

An interesting difference between the lever pull and the pull handle is that you need to push your feet into the footrest to move a pull handle recliner back into a locked position.

If you like manual reclining and want an even easier reclining method, then a pull handle recliner might be the way to go for your living room, reading room, or even a relaxed home office.

Pull handle recliners offer a good balance between the simplicity of a lever handle recliner and are available at many price ranges and qualities.
