how close to the wall can this chair be placed?

Not very close if you plan on reclining. I eventually had to put it kitty-cornered so that way it didn't hit the wall and leave black marks on my paint. Also, if you plan on rocking in it, keep it away from the wall.

It cannot be placed close to a wall as it reclines all the way back. It is not the kind of recliner that can be used that way.

Mine is about 2" from the wall. We don't lean on it for reading so we really cant tell. Since its wood and not metal, I don't plan on leaning on it unless its against the wall.

For one recliner, only the bottom is mostly release, so it should be at least two inches from the wall. As for the chaise, it should be at least more than a foot from the wall (which I just leave the back up because the chaise hardly fitted into the apartment). Whether the chaise is left up or down, it will still resemble a small bed, a very comfortable small bed.

I'm not exactly sure because I gave this as a gift to my daughter but she has it in a corner and it is pretty close to the wall.

The simple answer is "yes" if you can be sure to hit each stud in order to securely anchor the chair. That being said, it also depends if this is new or old construction. If old, the studs may not be in the correct position for the chair to be used on the short wall so you may want to consider anchoring the chair on the long wall. If new construction, we highly recommend placing blocking in-between the studs (on end wall) so that you assure of secure anchoring. Hope this helps!

The outer two seats recline so I would place it away from the wall if you are going to use them.

You could if you made them positioned at a 90 degree angle, with one flat against the wall and another next to it creating a corner. That is my plan, as I have something built into the wall behind it that I am unable to move. Just be sure if you do that, to plan for 30 inches out from the wall. And make sure of course it is secured ( L brackets), for the safety of children or jumpy pets in the home

The back is right around 12". You can cram this thing very close to the wall. Mine is at 2" of clearance on each side but you could go closer.

You do need some support it doesn't have to be a wall. The back folds down flat with the arms so there is no support or lock to hold it in place as a chair.

Not far. The top bar has a flat hunk of plastic (an inch or so thick) that must make direct contact with the wall. The legs curve forward a bit, and they probably sit about a foot from the wall, I reckon.

It can be as close as a few inches from the wall. No special clearance is needed.

Mine is attached to a wall around 4 ft height - It all depends about your comfort how tall are you going to install it.

I just position it close to the wall (the widest part of the board. It really isn't a problem. I iron what I am going to wear most days and I love this .

My chair sits on an angle in my room and the closest corner of the base is about 12 inches away from the wall. It will recline without hitting the wall at this distance.

Yes you can. I kerdied the wall and base and used thin set to set the seat in place. Cover seat with Kerdi and tiled over it. Turned out great. Good luck with the project
