Man I really wish you guys did something for recliners.
All of the cushion areas, seat, arms and the back.
I have a Lane recliner that is rated for 500 lbs.
The cushions are where they cut corners.
Only lasted about 3 years.
I'm about 400 lbs so I know that it contributed to the problem.
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated 🙏 !!
