Flight Recliner

Design Within Reach

“A relaxed seating position that can change is a very nice thing to think about,” says renowned designer Jeffrey Bernett. “And bringing the best thinking you can to a problem is exactly what modernism is all about.” When they challenged Bernett and Nicholas Dodziuk to create a recliner that didn’t look like one, they took DWR on willingly. Armed with experience designing ergonomic in-flight seating for private jets, Bernett knew how to create a comfortable chair with none of the bulkiness or macho pretense of a traditional recliner. Sleek and streamlined, the Flight Recliner (2005) is expertly upholstered with very few seams to suit its clean look. It sports a compact footprint and a patented conversion mechanism that takes it from upright to feet up to full recline with just a slight seated push. Includes your choice of a solid wood or steel sleigh base for stable footing. Made in U.S.A.

Design Within Reach was founded in 1998 with a mission: making authentic, modern furnishings accessible. Based in Stamford, Connecticut, DWR markets and sells furniture and accessories to both residential and trade customers online and through its retail studios in North America.
