    Default Used (but comfy) Bradington Young Recliners

    Hey Forum Experts,

    We found some older B&Y Recliners on Craigslist a few years back, and bought the set of 2 for $40. While they are a little rough, they're incredibly comfy and the recliner mechanisms still work. As these were starter chairs until we could buy real furniture, this was a total steal. Since then I've learned a lot about B&Y, and I thought I'd seek some wisdom from the community.

    1. Does anyone know the name of this style of chair? I can't find it on the internet.
    2. The mechanisms are a little tough to close, and one of them is slightly bent. How easy is it to repair/replace the mechanism? Is it worth touching them?
    3. The leather is a finished leather according to the tag. The chairs are a taupe-ish color, but they appeared VERY dirty and black. I spent a few hours scrubbing them clean, until they were more of a smooth beige color. At some point I lifted the seat cushion only to find a swatch that was also taupe but with lots of black mixed in. Was this an "aged" leather look once upon a time, and did I ruin it with my scrubbing? I'll attach the swatch picture in the next post.

    Thanks
