Our history spans 2 centuries. For over 130 years, our goal has been simple - to innovate in design and technology, to provide unparalleled comfort and timeless design.
Our aim was to transform the sitting experience. From the original recliner chaises of the 1890s to the revolutionary sofa beds of the 1960s, we have embraced the newest in motion technology to continually develop ranges which provide the ultimate in comfort.
