Reading chairs are generally stationary and often come with a matching ottoman but not a necessity. There are a range of different styles of designer reading chairs with some being upholstered in fabric, leather, traditional designs or modern contemporary chairs. When choosing a reading chair, some things to take to mind are whether you are looking for comfort, design or both. Reading chairs have always had a few names but they all boil down to one design. Other names that can be used are lounge chairs, carver chairs, armchairs and within these results we also have rocking chairs.
