The Florence Green 3 Seater Smart Recliner Sofa — The Statement Piece That Gives Something Back
Most statement sofas are all statement, no sofa. They photograph beautifully, then spend a decade doing absolutely nothing — one position, no support, no charge, while your back pays the bill for every evening on it. The Sofa Shop Florence 2357 in green refuses that trade. It’s the nature-led colour the room design accounts have been circling for years — deep, botanical, confident — and underneath it sit numerous smart, comfort, and craft functions: power recline, power headrests, massage on the lumbar, wireless charging, reading lights, and a Bluetooth speaker. The sofa that gets photographed is finally the sofa that gets used. Here’s what that actually looks like, seat by seat.
The Fabric Story: Green, Grounded
The green is a room-maker. Against white walls it turns a plain lounge into a considered one; against timber, rattan, brass or a wall of houseplants it completes the nature-led scheme that’s defined the last few years of British interiors. The charcoal piping is the quiet masterstroke — a fine dark outline that sharpens every edge and ties the green to darker floors, black-framed windows and smoked-glass lighting. And it’s engineered, not just styled: an eco- and vegan-friendly technology fabric, independently tested past 25,000 Martindale rubs with tensile, seam and colourfastness testing behind it, water-, stain- and scratch-resistant for households where the statement sofa still has to survive the dog. Hand-stitched, handcrafted, built to look this deliberate for years.
Who It’s For — And Who It Isn’t
Tall? The Florence’s high-back support and power headrest mean your head is supported, not hanging over the top rail — the sofa carries the weight of your head instead of your neck muscles. Shorter? Power recline brings the footrest up to meet your legs, so nothing dangles; a matching Florence footstool is available. Weight guidance, stated plainly: we ask that you don’t exceed 130kg per seat — exceeding it counts as misuse and isn’t covered. If someone in your household finds rising difficult, the matching Florence smart riser recliner chair does everything the recliner chair does, plus dual-motor assisted rise. If you want the cheapest sofa on a marketplace listing, this isn’t it.
The Feature Walk — What True Function Feels Like
Two power reclining seats with power headrests, each independently controlled via USB+C buttons — everyone gets the good seat. A UK MRI study found a reclined position around 135° puts less strain on the spine than sitting upright at 90°. This sofa takes you there on a button.
Massage on the lumbar of both reclining seats — a soothing massage sensation with mild lumbar warmth, tuned for relaxation, not deep tissue.
The middle back folds down into a table with a black cup holder.
Two LED reading lights, so one of you reads while the other watches the film.
A black socket set with a wireless charger — your phone charges where you sit.
A built-in storage drawer — remotes, controllers, and blankets, gone from the floor.
Two side pockets with power grommets and normal black cup holders on both arms — powered accessory ports, each unlocking a modular ecosystem of accessories.
LED ambient lighting with a cover, and a Bluetooth speaker system with Multi-Link — stream from your phone or connect to the TV.
One Sofa, Many Lives
Movie nights with the table down. Working from the sofa with the laptop charged and the lumbar supported. A 20-minute recline after the gym — reclining can reduce pressure on the lumbar spine by 50–80% compared with standing. Reading. Napping. Entertaining. The wall-hugging design needs only around 5–7cm of clearance. Under the fabric: a treated pine frame, 30+ pocket coil springs per seat, layered high-density and soft comfort foams, UKFR-approved fibre filling — an ergonomically designed, orthopedic-style seat. Motors independently tested beyond 25,000 reclining cycles under load, and silent-operation tested. One Florence replaces the sofa, the recliner, the reading lamp, the charger and the side table — built to be repaired, not replaced, backed by The Sofa Shop’s in-house repairs team.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the green look different from the website photos?
It can — screens and room lighting vary, and that’s exactly why we send free fabric swatches. Order the green swatch before you buy and see it against your walls, your floor and your evening lamps. What you order is what arrives.
Does the middle seat recline on the Florence 3 seater?
No — the two outer seats power-recline independently, each with its own power headrest, massage. The middle back folds down into a table with a cup holder, so the centre becomes your shared surface for film nights.
Is the green fabric practical with pets and children?
Yes, within honest limits: it’s a technology fabric tested past 25,000 Martindale rubs, with water-, stain- and scratch-resistant performance — resistant, not indestructible. Optional 5-Year Furniture Protection covers accidental damage, pet damage and stains if your household plays rough.
How far from the wall does it need to sit?
Only around 5–7cm. The Florence uses a wall-hugging reclining design, so the seat moves forward as it reclines instead of tipping backwards into the wall — ideal for smaller rooms.
Is it plug-in, and can I use everything at once?
Yes — mains powered, with all functions running simultaneously: recline, massage, lights, charging and speaker. A 29V/3A single-plug adapter option runs the whole sofa from one socket, and power draw is negligible when idle.
