What is the Tanya Brown range?

The Tanya Brown range is a comfortable, easy-living electric recliner sofa upholstered in soft brown fabric. Each piece leans back and raises a footrest at the touch of a button, so you can put your feet up and relax at the end of the day. It's a warm, welcoming choice for a family living room, available as a single 3-seater or a matching pair. To see the full choice of recliner sofas across the store, our recliner sofas collection is a good place to start.

What material is the Tanya Brown?

The Tanya Brown is upholstered in soft, woven fabric — warm and cosy to sit on, and one of the most inviting materials for a sofa you'll relax on every day. We keep fabric clearly distinct from leather and from leather-look Leather Aire, so you always know what you're buying; fabric has its own comfortable, textured feel and is cared for by vacuuming and spot-cleaning rather than wiping like a leather finish. The exact fabric detail for this range is shown on the product page. To explore the wider fabric choice across the store, our fabric sofas collection is a good reference.

How does the electric recline work?

Each Tanya Brown is a powered recliner. Rather than a lever or push-back, the recline is driven by a quiet motor: press and hold the button or handset and the sofa leans back and raises its footrest smoothly, stopping wherever you let go, so you can find a comfortable position and return upright just as easily. Because it's powered, each piece needs to sit within reach of a mains socket. Some models also include handy extras such as a USB charging point — the product page lists what each one has. To see the wider powered range across the store, our electric recliner sofas collection is a good reference.

What sizes are available?

The Tanya Brown comes in two options. Choose a single 3 seater for everyday family seating, or a 3+3 — a matching pair of two 3-seaters — to seat a larger group in coordinated comfort. In our size shorthand, the number is simply the number of seats, so “3+3” means two three-seater sofas. There's no armchair or two-seater in this particular range, though you'll find those sizes in other recliner collections. To browse coordinated pairs and sets across the store, our sofa sets collection is a good reference.

Is fabric a good choice for a recliner?

Fabric is a popular, comfortable choice for a recliner sofa. It's soft and warm to sit on, which suits a piece you'll relax on for long stretches, and it comes in cosy, easy-to-live-with tones like this warm brown. Fabric is breathable and doesn't feel cold to the touch in winter or sticky in summer the way some surfaces can. It's cared for by regular vacuuming and prompt spot-cleaning rather than wiping. If you'd prefer a wipe-clean surface instead, we offer recliners in other materials too. To compare across the powered range, our fabric recliner sofas collection is a good reference.

What colour is brown?

Brown is a warm, classic and welcoming colour that brings a cosy, natural feel to a room. It's one of the most practical shades for a family sofa, too — it hides everyday marks well, so it's forgiving in a busy household, and it pairs beautifully with creams, greens, warm neutrals and natural wood. In soft fabric, brown feels especially snug and inviting, making it a lovely choice for a relaxed, comfortable living room. To see other warm-toned pieces across the store, our brown sofas page shows the wider choice.

How to care for your fabric sofa

Fabric is straightforward to look after with a little regular attention. Vacuum it regularly with an upholstery tool to lift dust and crumbs, and plump the cushions to keep them comfortable and even. Blot spills straight away with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing, and check the care label before using any cleaning product, testing it on a hidden area first. Keep the sofa out of prolonged direct sunlight to avoid fading, and as these are electric, keep liquids away from the handset and power lead and keep the moving parts clear.

How to choose and measure your recliner

A recliner needs a little more space than a fixed sofa, so measure carefully. Allow clearance behind each piece for the backrest as it leans back, and space in front for the footrest to rise — the product page lists the reclined depth. As every piece here is electric, plan for it to sit within reach of a mains socket, and for a 3+3 pair think about where both sofas and their sockets will go. And, as with any sofa, measure your access route — doorways, hallways and stairwells — before you buy. Our sofa buying guide covers measuring up in detail.

Are the sofas fire-safe?

Yes. Every Tanya Brown piece meets UK Fire Resistant (UKFR) standards, so the materials and construction comply with the fire-safety regulations required for upholstered furniture sold in the UK. This is a baseline legal requirement rather than an optional extra, and it applies to both the 3-seater and the 3+3.

How long does delivery take?

Most in-stock Tanya Brown pieces are delivered within 7–10 working days, with free delivery. Delivery is carried out by a two-person team who bring each piece into your chosen ground-floor room, access permitting, and set it in place; old sofa removal can be arranged if you'd like your existing seating taken away at the same time. As a 3+3 pair is a large delivery, it's worth measuring your doorways and hallways in advance. Full timescales and coverage are on our delivery information page.

Can you spread the cost with finance?

Yes. You can spread the cost of the Tanya Brown 3-seater or 3+3 pair using one of our named finance providers, all subject to credit check. Simply select your preferred option at checkout; the exact terms for your order are shown before you confirm. Full details are on our finance options page.

How does the electric recline work?

Do the sofas need a power socket?
Yes — every piece here is a powered recliner, so it needs to sit within reach of a mains socket for the recline to work. It's worth planning where each piece will go in relation to your sockets, and for a 3+3 pair, thinking about where both sofas and their power leads will sit.
What sizes are available?
Two options: a single 3 seater for everyday family seating, or a 3+3 — a matching pair of two 3-seaters — to seat a larger group. There's no armchair or two-seater in this particular range, though you'll find those sizes in other recliner collections. Each piece's exact dimensions, including its reclined depth, are on its product page.
What does 3+3 mean?
In our size shorthand, the number is simply the number of seats, so 3+3 means two three-seater sofas — a matching pair. It's a good choice when you need to seat a larger family or a whole room in coordinated comfort, with both sofas in the same brown fabric design.

A recliner needs a little more room than a fixed sofa. Allow clearance behind each piece for the backrest as it leans back, and space in front for the footrest to rise; the reclined depth is on the product page.

How do I care for the fabric?
Vacuum it regularly with an upholstery tool to lift dust and crumbs, and plump the cushions to keep them even. Blot spills straight away with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing, and check the care label before using any product, testing on a hidden area first. Keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight, and on these electric models keep liquids away from the handset and lead.

We offer a 14-day change of mind returns window from the day your order is delivered, on items returned in their original condition. To arrange a return, contact our team within those 14 days and we'll talk you through the next steps. This is in addition to your statutory rights, which cover goods that are faulty or not as described.
What happens if my sofa arrives damaged?
If any piece arrives with damage, contact our team as soon as possible — ideally within 48 hours — with a few photographs, and we'll arrange a repair, replacement or collection. It helps to check each piece over on delivery before the team leaves where you can, including testing the electric recline.
Do I need to assemble the sofa myself?
There's very little to do. Our two-person team brings each piece into your room and fits any feet on-site, so it's ready to use. For these electric recliners, it's simply a case of plugging into a nearby socket. No tools or special skills are needed from you.
What guarantee comes with these sofas?
Every piece is inspected before it leaves us, and your purchase is protected by your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which cover goods that are faulty or not as described. You also have our 14-day change of mind returns. For confirmation of any specific manufacturer guarantee on a particular model, including the recline motor and handset, please check the product page or ask our team before you order.
