An armchair has a backrest and armrests similar to those of a sofa. It is usually lower, wider and more comfortable than an ordinary chair.
Many armchairs are upholstered, while others include, wheels, a swiveling seat, reclining back, skids, rockers, a footrest or even a massage function.
Choice will depend on chair size and available space, style, including traditional, modern, period and design, and upholstery. For example, leather is very elegant, while fabric is often more practical and comfortable. A high back can make the armchair an ideal spot for a siesta.
