Note: Most/All of the Polaris lounges have a sleeping / day bed area
Sleeping is prohibited in all United Club locations.
The Polaris Lounge at ORD and SFO each have four sleeping cubicles (near the restroom at ORD, near the showers at SFO). Feel free to nod off there.
The GFL at LHR has a section with around a half-dozen lie-flattish platform where you can doze too. Not really too private.

Is sleeping allowed at any United {Club} lounges?

While I find both to be borderline appalling I'd find the bare foot more, um, palatable.
I find it hilarious that people think sleeping on couches with bare feet or socks is disgusting. Sure you shouldn't put your feet (however covered) on any tables where people put their food, but it shouldn't make a difference to you if someone is napping on a couch or two chairs with their bare or socked feet up. Shoes can be quite dirty, as you walk through bathrooms and other infested surfaces, but your socks and smelly feet are not much different than your smelly derriere, which has the most bacteria of any part of your body. Do you know how many obese people have sat on that sofa, sweated for an hour or two, and then ripped fecal coliform bombs into that fabric? If someone is tired enough to put their face in that, who are you to say no? Just let the damn person sleep and get off your high horse! And your cell phone!

I understand the sign in context, but it is so contradictory. Please tell me its a 'shop.
So does that mean I can only recline at a workstation?

I will keep my wallet in my pants. One more thing not to waste money on.
Again, this is just one more reason not to purchase a membership at these clubs. I travel for work. I don't travel for luxury or relaxation. I generally have to make phone calls, when waiting to get on or off a plane. I am not going to step out of "the club" just to make a phone call. Forget that.
If they think I am going to pay good money, for the privilege of not making phone calls, guess again.

United Club Decorum
Signs recently seen in the SEA & SFO United Clubs to the effect, " do not put your feet on the furniture" [sorry don't recall the exact wording, apparently addressed to all pax, not "Children!"] ... cue image of fussy kindergarten teacher. Seems rather patronizing, huh? Or don't the kettles know about keeping feet on the floor <gr>.

I don't want to sit on what you just walked through.
