People ask me, are power reclining sofas reliable or will the motor die in a few weeks, a few months, or a couple of years?

Real answer, reliable if you buy the right brand, cheap online power recliners use no-name motors, thin wires, and cheap circuit boards.

2 years, so they fail, quality brands use Oaken, Lamoss, or LP motion motors, the same industrial motors used in hospital beds.

Warranty is 5 years minimum, sometimes longer than that.

Gallery Furniture, every power recliner we sell has a motor from a name brand supplier, and if it ever fails, we service it, not chip you apart and say good luck.
