Model: New Classic
A compact chair-and-ottoman design that blends into a living room more easily than a capsule chair, with SL-track massage, heat and four targeted hip airbags.

DETAILED OVERVIEW
The NOUHAUS New Classic is a massage recliner with a separate ottoman, not a full-size zero-gravity capsule. Its 25.98-inch width, 82-pound combined chair-and-ottoman weight, swivel base, and furniture-like shape make it unusually easy to place visually.
Inside the chair is a 2D four-roller SL-track, six automatic programs, three heat levels, and four airbags focused at the hips and glutes. The ottoman is height-adjustable but does not have documented sole rollers.
WHO IT SUITS
FEATURE ANALYSIS
The four-roller carriage follows an SL-shaped path through the back and toward the seat. Four airbags focus on the hip and glute area instead of providing full-body compression.
Heat offers three published settings—95°F, 104°F, and 113°F. Bluetooth audio and USB charging are integrated into the chair, while the separate ottoman can be adjusted for leg position.
FIT AND ROOM PLANNING
At 25.98 inches wide, the chair body is the narrowest in the catalog. NOUHAUS publishes a 250-pound capacity but no user-height range; the adjustable shoulder position helps, but it does not replace a real fit check.
The separate ottoman needs its own footprint, and NOUHAUS does not publish a complete operating envelope or rear-clearance figure. Package size is 49.21 × 27.95 × 25.59 inches at 108 pounds gross.
