Parker Knoll quality

How we make our high quality furniture

With over 130 years' experience behind us, you can feel confident when choosing Parker Knoll.

We carefully select high quality timber and fabrics to provide the ultimate in comfort and durability. At the same time, our highly skilled craftsmen use traditional upholstery methods and well-researched ergonomic designs. The result is a beautiful range of handmade sofas that offer maximum support, comfort and pleasure for many years to come.

Although our handcrafted furniture meets the highest standards, we ensure every sofa and armchair has a 25 year frame guarantee - just for your peace of mind.

Recliner motion options

At Parker Knoll, we put our heart and expert skills into every piece of furniture we make. This is never more evident than in our recliners. 

We have a number of designs in our collection that offer a recliner. These include Conway, Genoa, Milan, Norton, Regent, and York. Here are the range of motion options that are available to you.

Manual recliner

In its upright position, a recliner is an exceptionally well-designed and comfortable armchair. However, once you relax and recline, you will experience a new level of comfort and relaxation - the kind that only Parker Knoll's experience and craftsmanship can offer.

Motorised recliners

Our motorised recliners offer all the comfort and convenience of the manual recliner, without the effort. Simply press the buttons on the hand-set to activate the mechanism - you can stop the recliner in whatever position you find most comfortable.

Care and maintenance of fabrics

Fabrics that have a pile, such as velvets and chenilles may show pressure marks, flatten or crease where the cushion fillings flex. These are all characteristics of the material and should not be regarded as a fault. In order to keep your furniture in pristine condition, here are a few helpful tips:

Care and maintenance of show wood

Timber or show-wood areas of your furniture can be cleaned with a diluted solution of warm water and vinegar and buffed with a soft duster, or simply wiped with a soft duster. Do not use spray furniture polish.

25 year guarantee

All Parker Knoll furniture comes with a 25 year frame and frame assembly guarantee.
