Barrel chair or a Euro Chair with foot stool

If you where to order you coach again and had the choice would you order the Euro chair or barrel chair They both would come in matching leather to the front seats. I have a barrel chair now so please let me know which one you like best .

We have the Euro chair and foot stool and when we were looking we tried both styles, but found the Euro chair to be more comfortable then the barrel chair.

The Euro chair is very cofortable, having to store the foot stool is a pain.

We ordered the Euro Chair option in lieu of the EasyRest sofa and like them. However I still like a regular recliner better. The stools just sit in the chair when driving and don't move.

DW loves our Euro chair. Foot stool goes upside down on the bed while on the road. I prefer a recliner, but will settle for the Euro over a barrel in a pinch.

I'll cast another vote for the euro chair and ottoman. Ours came that way, but I would order one if I was ordering.

If I were to get an Euro chair, I would get one that does not have an ottoman, from Bradd and Hall. Such as this. I am thinking of replacing my theater seats with two of them but my wife is not sure about the replacement.

Ours came with the Euro chair that we have replaced with a Lazy Boy recliner. The Euro chair was the most uncomfortable thing I have ever sat in. I have a nearly new Euro Chair and Ottoman that I will sell cheap!

Barrel chair...

Our coach came with the euro chair and ottoman. We got rid of the ottoman because it seemed too low to be comfortable. I use the euro chair, but I tightened it so that it does not recline. When reclined it seemed uncomfortable too. If I were to replace the chair I would go with either a barrel chair or a wall hugger recliner. We have a barrel chair at home that is really comfortable. It wraps around you and the arms are at a nice height and that makes it extremely comfortable. The more I think about it...I would go with a swivel barrel chair. Happy trails, Joe

The terrible barrel chair is in the garage and a Lazy Boy in it's place. Don't know about the Euro Chair but anything else has to be better than the barrel.

Jerry, we have the same coach and are looking at the Bradd and Hall Lambright Lazy Relaxor Swivel Wall Hugger Recliner Bradd and Hall RV Furniture.

Winnebago can take these darn theater recliners back! Worthless!

Someone took the standard recliner out of our Journey before we got it. We just ordered a full leather Palliser "Theo" swivel recliner. The "euro" chairs seemed like a hassle with the unattached footrest. Barrel chair, forget it, get a recliner...

Ours came with the Euro chair. I don't like it. The arms are to low to provide good support and comfort. We store the ottoman behind the passenger seat, up against the passenger seat on our side entry door model.

I'm looking for a more comfortable style for my "large" frame. (no comments from the peanut gallery)
