Fama Moonrise XL You & Me Power Reclining Armchair

The Fama Moonrise XL You & Me Power Reclining Armchair brings together luxurious comfort, innovative design and the pleasure of relaxing together. Based on Fama's popular Moonrise recliner, the Moonrise XL offers a generously proportioned two-person seating experience, combining the comfort of an oversized armchair with the practicality of a compact sofa.

Whether you're curling up with someone special, enjoying a quiet evening with your favourite book or sharing your seat with a four-legged friend, the Moonrise XL creates a wonderfully cosy place to unwind.

Featuring electric reclining, two independently adjustable headrests, wireless remote control and optional smartphone app operation, the Moonrise XL offers exceptional comfort with effortless convenience.

The chair also features a gentle rocking movement, which can be removed as a factory option for customers who prefer a more stationary seating experience.

Available in Fama's extensive collection of beautiful fabrics and leathers, the Moonrise XL can be personalised to complement your home and individual style.

A Luxurious You & Me Seat – Made for Sharing

One of the most appealing features of the Moonrise XL is its generous seating space.

At 142cm wide, it provides enough room for two people to sit comfortably together, making it a lovely choice for couples who enjoy relaxing side by side.

Its enveloping design and supportive cushioning create a wonderfully inviting seating experience, whether you're cuddling up together or enjoying the additional space on your own.

The Moonrise XL also works beautifully as a compact two-seater sofa, providing comfortable seating without the proportions of a conventional full-sized sofa.

This makes it particularly appealing for smaller living rooms, cosy corners and open-plan spaces where flexibility is important.

Effortless Electric Reclining

The Fama Moonrise XL features electrically operated reclining seats, allowing you to extend the footrests and settle into a wonderfully relaxing position.

The smooth power reclining mechanism provides effortless adjustment, making it easy to find a comfortable position for watching television, reading or simply putting your feet up.

Unlike a conventional manual recliner, there's no need to push against the backrest or operate a mechanical lever.

Wireless Remote Control & Smartphone App Operation

The Moonrise XL comes with a wireless remote control, allowing you to operate the electric reclining mechanism without having to reach for controls on the side of the chair.

This makes adjusting your seating position particularly convenient, whether you're sitting upright or fully relaxed.

For additional flexibility, the Moonrise XL can also be operated using an app-based remote control on your smartphone.

These convenient control options make the Moonrise XL a particularly practical choice for customers who appreciate modern reclining technology.

Gentle Rocking Movement – Optional Factory Removal

The Fama Moonrise XL features a gentle rocking movement that adds another dimension to its luxurious comfort.

This soothing motion is ideal for relaxing with a book, enjoying a quiet moment or simply unwinding after a busy day.

As the electric footrest extends, the rocking movement stops when the footrest reaches approximately 40°, allowing the chair to settle into its reclining position.

Prefer a Chair Without the Rocking Movement?

At Julia Jones, we can also arrange for the rocking movement to be removed during manufacture.

This factory option is ideal for customers who prefer a more stationary seating experience while retaining the comfort and convenience of electric reclining.

It's a particularly useful choice for those who love the generous proportions and comfort of the Moonrise XL but don't require the rocking function.

Two Independently Adjustable Headrests

The Moonrise XL features two independently adjustable headrests, allowing each person to personalise their own level of comfort and support.

Each headrest can be adjusted in both height and angle, helping you find a comfortable position for your head and neck.

This is particularly beneficial when two people of different heights are sharing the chair, as each can adjust their headrest to suit their individual preferences.

Whether sitting upright or reclining, the adjustable headrests contribute to the Moonrise XL's wonderfully supportive seating experience.

Enveloping Comfort for Everyday Relaxation

The Moonrise XL has been designed to create a snug, comfortable seating experience.

Its generously padded seat, supportive backrest and curved arms provide a cosy, enveloping feel, making it an inviting place to spend time.

The extending footrests allow you to stretch out and relax, while the adjustable headrests provide additional support.

The result is a wonderfully comfortable You & Me seat that combines the relaxed feeling of an oversized armchair with the practicality of seating for two.

A Compact Sofa with a Difference

Although designed as a generously sized reclining armchair, the Moonrise XL also makes an excellent alternative to a conventional compact two-seater sofa.

Its 142cm overall width makes it particularly useful where space is limited, while its reclining functionality offers a level of relaxation not usually associated with a small sofa.

It's ideal for:

• Living rooms: A comfortable place for two people to relax together.

• Cosy reading corners: An inviting retreat for enjoying a favourite book.

• Apartments and smaller homes: A practical alternative to a larger sofa.

• Open-plan spaces: A comfortable additional seating area.

• Relaxing with pets: Plenty of room to share your favourite chair with a four-legged companion.

Whether used as your main relaxation spot or as additional seating, the Moonrise XL brings comfort and versatility to your home.

Beautiful Fama Fabrics & Leathers

The Moonrise XL is available in Fama's extensive collection of upholstery options, including contemporary plain fabrics, luxurious textures, distinctive patterned designs and beautiful leathers.

Its generously curved shape makes it particularly attractive when upholstered in one of Fama's statement fabrics, allowing you to create a real focal point in your living room.

You can also explore different fabric combinations to create a personalised design that reflects your individual style.

The chair features a black fixed base and anthracite headrest bar, complementing its contemporary appearance.

Removable Covers for Everyday Practicality

The Moonrise XL features removable seat, back and arm covers, offering additional practicality for everyday use.

This is particularly useful for a chair designed to be enjoyed regularly, whether relaxing alone, sharing with a partner or spending time with pets.

Always follow the appropriate care and cleaning instructions for your chosen fabric or leather.

Mains-Powered Reclining

The Moonrise XL is designed to operate using a mains electrical connection.

Although Fama offers rechargeable battery packs for certain reclining chairs, we do not recommend a battery pack for the Moonrise XL.

For this model, we recommend using the standard mains power connection for its electric reclining mechanism.
