My son has wanted one for years for watching sports, but until I started prepping for my BR I never considered having one. Pretty worried about staying upright and thinking it's not a good idea to share our smallish bed with my large-ish spouse following surgery, so I bit the bullet and bought a recliner. If you had a recliner for post-op, how long did you sleep in it? How soon did you go to sleeping flat in bed?
