Looking for a recliner for my 75 yr old father?

I need to know what is a good quality recliner that will be very durable, comfortable and easy to maneuver. I have been looking at very many furniture stores Lazy boy, Ramour Flannigan, Best etc. Very over whelming. My dad is still very active. He is 5'5" 220pds. So he definately needs durability. I was looking at electrical and manual. I am afraid about electrical if it breaks easily and the cost to repair. Please help with good name brand recliners.
