    Where’s your favorite place to sit and think? Your living room, your front porch, your back yard? Let us know in the comments!

      Backyard for sure. On the ground.

      My backyard rocker for my coffee. My…recliner for everything else. 😂

      I’m not a recliner girl so much lol, so it’s the chaise part of my couch! I’m short and having my legs dangling around sitting on the couch isn’t the most comfortable, but legs out? YES.

    00:40 - 00:45 - Sticker on the shoe sole and the "chair fart" had me ready to giggle and enjoy another fun video with Caroline!

    Are you going to do a video on the recliner's ancestor, the decadent rocking chair? Hope so!

    We had a big bulky recliner in our living room, it was my Dad’s favorite place to rest. One day it was gone. My mom gave it away without telling him. To this day we still talk about it as one of the most evil things she’s ever done. 🥺

    Love this video! It reminded me of the 1919 Irving Berlin song "You'd Be Surprised" (once covered by Marilyn Monroe!) where Mary explains her guy's appeal: "He doesn't look very strong but when you sit on his knee, You'd be surprised. At a party or at a ball he's nothing at all, but in a morris chair, you'd be surprised...."

    My partner and I just got ourselves a pair of Lazboys! Different styles, but matching fabric. They are so comfortable, and not too recliner-y looking (well, mine isn't haha). Life's too short to not have a super comfortable place to sit.

    My husband got a recliner.. I hated the look. It was brown ..Ugh. However, by the end of it, I was in love with it. So freaking comfortable. We got rid of it for a slicker looking one, I still don’t like the look but my husband works hard and doesn’t ask for much. Marriage is about compromise. Happily married for 35 years.

    I have a modern recliner. Looks great and I confess I’ve slept in it more nights than I care to count. It’s comfy.

    Thanks for the correlation to William Morris. This led to me considering to incorporate his design into my living room.

    I'm surprised the Eames lounge chair wasn't mentioned. It serves the same function as a recliner but is way more attractive. They are quite pricey but I do see some contemporary alternatives that are still sleek. I do think the more modern recliner options are nice when they look like a regular chair. If I had to have one of those monster looking ones in my house I would cringe.

    Loved your review of the cherished recliner-my friend just ordered one yesterday from Wayfair and from the online pics, it is quite stylish! Please consider highlighting the evolution of pressure cookers to instapots/air fryers/etc. I only have a slow cooker but am interested in other energy/time saving countertop cooking methods. I know you will break it down and deliver the informed details in the “Winkler Way” 😂 Thank you Caroline!

    I'm not gonna lie, for my whole family, we just bought 6 new recliners because I was sick of everyone trying to steal mine. so now everyone in my house has one and the old one I had is now shared by my dog and cat. I know it's not beautiful but we sure are enjoying them. ❤😂

    My mom had a recliner that rocked when you didn't have the footrest out. Those are my favorite kind. But there just isn't room in my place for a chair that big. Maybe after I retire....

    Just the other day, I was talking about signature furniture and I said to my boyfriend that big bulky black or brown leather recliner are the most american piece of furniture out there. Have never seen such a thing in my home country (Germany) or any other country I've been to.

  • @margotjones7168

    I'm surprised that the most iconic "recliner" of all time, the Eames lounge chair, didn't make an appearance in this video.

    • @krose6451
      @krose6451 10 месяцев назад +1

      Unfortunately. It is particularly annoying to have it come up in a video intended to present facts and history. This isn't that hard of a truth to come across. Research into historical womens fashion, misinformation, medicine, or sexism could uncover it among other things.
