Guests were invited to experience its latest offering of chairs and sofas that double as luxury recliners. Among those spotted trying out these sleek seats were Amina Aranaz-Alunan with her mom Becky Aranaz, Gretchen Fullido, and Vanna Garcia.

Host Janeena Chan also tested the collection, remarking, "It's a pleasant surprise—a sofa that you didn't even know reclines. It's like no other sofa or recliner in the market in terms of design and technology."

Home Mavericks Inc. President Eric Mendoza highlighted the collection's uniqueness in his speech, stating, "It's better than buying a first class seat because you take the luxury and comfort home."
