With the increasing demands of today’s overcommitted, technology-driven lifestyles, it’s no surprise consumers want to sit down and put their feet up. The motion upholstery category reflects this trend with 5.1 percent year to year growth from 2014 to 2015.
In 2015, total motion upholstery sales were $11.02 billion, with recliners’ share estimated at $4.74 billion. For the first quarter or 2016, the entire motion upholstery category is up 4.1 percent over first quarter of 2015.
While they’re looking for comfort, fashion and functionality are at the top of consumers’ shopping lists as well. Furniture designers have responded in a big way and are coming to market with a variety of styles, materials and options for every budget and décor style.
