There are many options to choose from when it comes to a recliner. Here are some of the most popular:

Massage and Heat – talk about spoiling dad! Get him a recliner with massage and heat built into it and he may not want to leave his chair.

Storage – some recliners have handy spots to stash a newspaper, magazine, even a remote. Add a cup holder and Dad is good to go.

Automatic Recline – make it easy for Dad to relax with an automatic recline feature that does all the work for him.

You can even choose a sofa with a recliner built in for exceptional style and comfort in your living room.

No matter which features the recliner has, it is sure to bring comfort and enjoyment to Dad for years to come.

The Living Room has its name for a very good reason – it’s where we like to live in our homes. It’s a favorite gathering place for families and friends, so it stands to reason that our living rooms should be designed around what we like to do most and how we choose to live our lives.

Today’s family room furniture choices are stylish, comfortable, and functional and you can find the type that works well for you and your lifestyle – sofas, chairs, ottomans and coordinating accessories.

If you have small children and/or pets, look for fabrics or coverings that provide extra protection – there are many on the market today.

Maybe you don’t have children or pets, but you enjoy relaxing in front of the TV while you eat. It would be wise to keep this in mind when selecting the color and materials for your sofa. 

Before you purchase your new living room furniture, take a little time to think about how you actually live in your living room and keep this information in mind when making your final selection.

For top-quality, brand-name furniture at manufacturer-direct prices, take a look at what DirectBuy has to offer for your living room and the rest of your home as well. You’ll find great quality and great saving on all of your home furnishing needs.

You know exactly the size of the couch needed for the long wall in your living room.  Can it fit through your front door?  Maybe it can get through the front door, but not through the hallway door into the living room. 

Knowing the access points into your living room is crucial.  Do you have to go up a flight of stairs or make a couple of turns on those stairs?  If delivery will have to come via an elevator, make sure to know the dimensions of the elevator. 

Taking out the window casing for getting furniture into the house isn’t much fun and putting it back in correctly is even worse. Prior to purchasing the perfect sofa or chair for your living room, take a little extra time to figure out the measurements and angles of your home entry points. 

DirectBuy has a great selection of living room furniture to help you create the living room you’ve always dreamed of. Best of all, with DirectBuy you can save with manufacturer-direct prices on all your home furnishings and accessories.

Regardless of whether you choose a coffee table made of wood, glass, or steel, it can serve as a piece to bring the living room together.  You can still even put your feet up on it; just make sure Mom isn’t looking.

If you’re in the market for a new coffee table or a whole new set living room furniture, you’ll find a great selection at DirectBuy where you’ll also find great savings with manufacturer-direct wholesale prices.

Measure your living room and decide what size sofa would fit in the available space.  Next think about style and comfort.  Many modern or contemporary sofas aren’t the best on which to relax, but if you are more concerned with style, there are many designs from which to choose.  Think about the function of the sofa.  Is it for relaxing or to be situated in a more formal setting?

Just as with most any other item we purchase, there are various grades of sofas.  You want a sofa to last so determine what type of material is used and how it is assembled.  Choosing a harder wood or steel will help ensure the longevity of the sofa.  Frames which are assembled with screws are also preferable to those which use nails or staples. 

Get a grasp of the basics of sofas and how they are constructed.  You can find any style or design you want, but if you don’t have one that is quality made under the fabric, it might not last as long as you would like.
Seating and cushion filling is also important in the life of a sofa.  Look for springs that are tied together versus a wire coil system.  Foam has been the standard for cushions over the years, but down is also coming to the forefront and is a great base for cushioning.

DirectBuy has a wide range of beautiful, high-quality sofas and living room accessories for your home – all from leading manufacturers and their authorized suppliers. You’ll find great savings with manufacturer-direct prices.

Before purchasing your living room furniture, there are a few things questions you should ask yourself:

1. How big is my living room?
Measure your living room before buying furniture.  This will allow you to have specific wall lengths and floor space available.

2. How tall are my ceilings?
Knowing your ceiling height will help in keeping your living room furniture proportionate to your entire house.

3. What else is in the room?
Do you have floral curtains, wood floors, carpet?  Think about all areas of the living room.  You want to choose furniture that will mix well with your draperies, wall color, flooring, etc.

4. How do I utilize my living room?
Do you spend many hours a day in the living room?  Is it a gathering place or are you using it a couple of times a year?  Remembering how you use your living room will help in choosing the right furniture based on style and durability.

Taking a little extra time to think about the overall space and usability of your living room will help you purchase just the right furniture for your home.  Investing your money in new living room furniture? Invest a little extra time before purchasing and you will have years of enjoyment out of your new living room furniture.

DirectBuy offers a wide selection of furniture for your living room and every other room in your home. You can choose top-quality furniture at manufacturer-direct prices and save.

Entertainment Center – this is where you are going to get the most storage options in your family room because it is often one of the largest pieces of furniture in the room. Most entertainment centers come with built-in storage for audio/visual equipment, DVDs and CDs, but you can use the cabinets and drawers for other items.

Coffee Table – some styles of coffee tables have cabinets and/or drawers for additional storage. This comes in handy when you want to store knick knacks and books out of the way when you need more space on your coffee table.

End Table – end tables can also have a drawer or cabinet, expanding your storage possibilities. End tables usually hold a lamp, picture or knick knack on top, but instead of having empty space underneath, you can choose a coffee table with cabinets and drawers.

DirectBuy carries a wide range of furniture for your family room and every room in your home. You’ll find it all at your local DirectBuy Showroom and all at great manufacturer-direct prices.

Candles – candles are always a nice touch and can be lit for fragrance or an soft illumination to add a feeling of coziness or even romance.

Books – books are great conversation pieces and perfect for adorning a coffee table. Find a book with lots of pictures on a topic of interest to you for display on your coffee table.

Knick Knacks – use knick knacks sparingly. They can be a great addition but if you go overboard, your coffee table can look cluttered. “Less is more” when it comes to knick knacks.

DirectBuy carries a huge selection of beautiful living room furniture for your home. You’ll find it all from leading manufacturers and their authorized suppliers and all at manufacturer-direct prices.

However you choose to use them, the assortment of shapes, styles and sizes is vast and the choice simply depends on how and where they will be used in your home.

Some common shapes are round, oval and square, but more unique styles are coming about. And the materials they are made of are endless as well. From wood to metal and everything in between, end tables are just what your home needs to add symmetry to your larger pieces of furniture.

DirectBuy has a wide range of accessories to compliment the many different styles of living room furniture also available. You’ll find great combinations in any style you want from country to contemporary – all at manufacturer-direct prices to help you stay within your budget.

Placement is key. You’ve probably already decided where you will place each piece of furniture – sofa, chairs and ottomans – but did you consider the sunlight that comes through the windows at various times of the day?

One of the primary steps you can take to protect your new furniture is to make sure it’s placed away from direct sunlight. Harsh rays from the sun not only fade fabric or leather, it breaks down the fibers over extended exposure.

So use your blinds or curtains to make sure your furniture is protected during the heaviest periods of sunshine. If you don’t have window treatments, window blinds are a great solution.

DirectBuy carries a beautiful collection of living room furniture in almost any style you can imagine, from sleek, contemporary to comfortable casual or elegant traditional styles. You’ll also find a wide selection of window blinds. Whatever your home remodeling, building or decorating needs, DirectBuy brings you a great selection at amazing wholesale prices.
