Built on a hardwood frame, made to be lived in
The Richmond Black Electric Recliner Armchair is the single-seat version of the Richmond range, finished in the same true black upholstery as the Richmond sofas and measuring W106cm x D95cm x H80–102cm.
How the Richmond is built
The Richmond is the modern end of the recliner market rather than the traditional one. The arms are squared blocks, the seats are divided into flat stitched panels, and the whole frame stands on slim black metal legs — so it reads as a low contemporary sofa until you press the button on the arm and the footrest comes out.
The 3 seater and the 2 seater each carry two electric recliners, one at each end, operated by a metal button set into the arm. The headrests lift independently of the backrest, which is what lets a tall and a short person share the same sofa without one of them sitting with their head pushed forward.
The upholstery is a leather and PVC mix in black or grey, quilted along the outer arm panels. It wipes clean in seconds, which matters most along the headrest and the leading edge of the footrest — the two places hands and heels land. The 3 seater is 207cm wide, the 2 seater 162cm and the armchair 106cm, all 95cm deep, and the back stands 80cm rising to 102cm with the headrest up.
Where the Black Richmond armchair works
Black anchors a light room and hides everyday marks better than any other finish. Set it against pale walls with a cream or oatmeal rug so the contrast does the work, and break up the mass with textured throws in bone or camel.

Frequently asked questions
Does the price include delivery? Yes — two-man delivery to your room of choice on the UK mainland is included, with no separate charge at checkout.
Will it match the Richmond sofas? Yes. The armchair uses the same fabric, arm profile and cushion construction as the sofas in the same colour.
How do I clean it? Wipe with a soft dry cloth, using a barely damp one for marks and drying immediately; do not let liquid sit in the seams. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from radiators, which dry the surface out and cause it to crack. Never use solvent, bleach or an abrasive pad. Keep the reclining mechanism clear of toys and cables, and switch the sofa off at the socket before looking underneath.
Dimensions are approximate and measured at the widest points. Fabric colour may vary slightly between screens and batches.
Sofas held in stock are delivered across the UK within 1–10 days by our specialist two-person team, who carry the sofa to your room of choice and take all packaging away.
If a size or colour is showing as available to order, the expected back-in-stock date and delivery window are shown next to the price above and updated as our stock schedule changes.
Before you order, please measure. Check the width and height of doorways, hallways, stairwells and any tight turns on the route to the room. Most of our sofas arrive in sections or with removable feet, but corner and U-shape units are large single pieces — the dimensions for each part are listed under Dimensions below.
Full dimensions for this model are listed in the description above. Measurements are taken at the widest and deepest points including arms and cushions, and may vary by up to 2cm as every frame is finished by hand.
Assembly is minimal — typically the feet screw on by hand and corner or modular sections clip together. No tools are needed for most models. Recliner and electric models are supplied ready to use; simply connect the supplied transformer to a standard socket.
Velvet
Brush the pile gently in one direction and vacuum on a low upholstery setting every couple of weeks. Blot spills immediately with a clean dry cloth — never rub, as this crushes the pile. Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Bouclé & Chenille
Vacuum with an upholstery brush, never a beater bar, which can pull the loops. Snagged loops should be trimmed level with scissors, not pulled. Blot spills with a barely damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Genuine Leather
Dust weekly with a dry microfibre cloth and condition every 6–12 months with a quality leather cream to keep the hide supple. Keep at least 30cm from radiators and direct heat sources, which dry and crack the surface.
PU & Faux Leather
Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid solvents, bleach, alcohol wipes and abrasive cleaners. Keep away from direct heat and prolonged sunlight.
All fabrics
Rotate and plump loose seat and back cushions weekly so they wear evenly. Foam and fibre fillings settle by up to 10% in the first few months — this is normal and not a fault.
Every sofa carries a 5-year guarantee on the frame and a 1-year guarantee on the mechanism, springs and electrics against manufacturing faults.
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. Please keep the original packaging where possible and let us know before returning so we can arrange collection. Full details are on our returns policy page.
