You are so right about the importance of size. In our 70’s. We just purchased two Stressless models. One in a small size for my 4”10 wife. The small size is giving her comfort she never had before. Mine is on order from Norway.
Much appreciated info. I'm looking at a Lane 4502-190 "Titus" Comfort King. I'm 6'5" and top out at 285. It's very difficult to find a reasonably priced well-built recliner for a fellow my size.
@@alden2826 It ain't all it's cracked up to be. Seems every Uber driver owns a Prius or a Focus! You oughta see my big ass trying to squeeze into the back seat of one of those things! Or better yet, the look I get when they offer to get a larger vehicle and I grin and say, "Naahhh, no trouble, I've crawled into the guts of a terrapin before"! LLOL
Well, I just went recliner shopping. I need to replace my cushy old "back killer" as I've aged. Still a great chair for a young person! I went from store to store. I needed one with lumber support and enough firmness to support the rest of my spine. I tried dozens and dozens of chairs at different stores. I found exactly one that met the criteria. It is $1500.00. It is what it is! I'm not going to buy the wrong chair to save a buck. May as well keep what I have.
Make the frame out of aluminum. The curved parts like armrest from stamped sheetmetal, like old car fenders. Why wood? Make the back from 4 seperate cushions that can be adjusted by adding or removing stuffing, zipper access, like Lane used to. Use springs and batting and foam, not just foam. Make the seat cushion go all the way to the back UNDER the bottom of the seat back. Delete the rocking and swivel, or make them selectable. Most important, make a seperate manual adjust for footrest and back. One on each side or one lever longer than the other. I would pay $3000 for that.
The power recliner in this video is the Lancer Recliner. I have linked it for you down below. As for a recommendation, it all depends on what you're looking for and which chair fits your body. We always recommend trying out recliners in a store near you! Let me know if you have any other questions. www.la-z-boy.com/p/recliners/lancer-rocking-recliner/_/R-010515
I am in the market for a nice comfy recliner. I'm only 5.7" though so a lot of chairs will be too big for me. You didn't mention the name of the second chair (the power chair) you sat in. It looks perfect but might be too big for me.
Find your local La-Z-Boy by visiting this link: www.la-z-boy.com/storeLocator/storeLocator.jsp We have lots of recliners that can be upgraded to power that includes heat and massage options as well as our lift recliners.
I only will go to La-Z-Boy furniture galleries for sales on recliners that I know I can trust without a sales money-making gig! Question are the kids recliners quality & what is the best of quality in that kind? I want kids to be safe & think that La-Z-Boy should make kids recliners as well!
Of course you'll get an answer! Hey Ralph, you might find a few recliners that are made for a tall user. Check out the link below for a few different suggestions for 6'3" and above. The Astor might be the best choice as it is the tallest chair made by La-Z-Boy. Let me know if this helps and if you have any other questions shoot em our way! www.furnitureacademy.com/best-la-z-boy-recliners-for-extra-tall-body-types/
@@hacksaw413 The Astor is a great recliner. It's part of the summit series so it comes standard with 5 support springs, and two extra inches on the base.
So I need some help. I'm a big man who has a tendency to destroy furniture over time. What am I looking for to hold up to me? I'm 6'4" and 390lbs. Even at my leanest the best I got is 315lbs.
Hey Bob! La-Z-Boy only guarantees their recliners up to 350lbs unfortunately. If you're going to consider any LZB recliners then you should take a look at the Astor or the Redwood. Both are part of the summit series so they have extra support springs. The links below will give you more info about them. th-cam.com/video/H0ljpHnAygQ/w-d-xo.html - Astor th-cam.com/video/a4ydtN-8qqo/w-d-xo.html - Redwood Please let us know what you decide whether it's La-Z-Boy or not!
I just purchased a Joshua rocker recliner in leather trim. I’m disappointed. My previous lazboy was 20 years old and looked great, but a spring broke. I’m 5’11 and 205 lbs. I’m looking for a better quality rocker than this Joshua before my one month is over. Suggestions? This recliner is not comfortable, even though it fits my size. I want manual operation.
Hey David, Sorry to hear about your Joshua Recliner. I linked you to another video below. You might find some other recliner choices in your size. Let us know how it goes! th-cam.com/video/Hh4hKM2Eu0Q/w-d-xo.html
This is a lot like the firearms industry...show 2 1911's, one is $499, other is $1,599 - but when you feel them, try them in person, understand the difference in materials, where it's made - all clear why the cost is higher, but websites really struggle with that.
Perfect sleeper for $3,000 something dollars and it stopped working after the third week thing would not rise ,back would not work right l called 3 weeks and still not fixed. Then they tell me I have to wait two more weeks for them to give me an appointment to fix it. I will not ever do this again with 1st Street. I'll try to find something for $400 and just use it for sitting on and rising
Hey Jackie, I hate to hear that you're having an issue with your sleeper. However, this isn't a 1st Street Furniture channel. If your furniture is made by La-Z-Boy then it should have a warranty that'll cover your damages. Please consult the link below if that is the case. www.la-z-boy.com/content/CustomerCare
If you want your chair to last longer, just buy a $40 slipcover that you can wash monthly and replace if it rips, instead of spending thousands of dollars for "stronger" leather.
Suggestion: That background music is very disturbing. It sounds like someone is turning the volume button up and down, up and down 👎. I switched to CC.
We 100% agree! If you use our in home design program to redo your room our degreed designers will come to your home and measure your space. Then they will show you in a 3D planner what the space will look like with all the furniture in it. That way you can see if something is too big or two small for the room before you buy it. Hope this helps!
I bought the lancer recliner and it just kills my neck. the chair feels completely different from what I tested in the store. I wish I could return the chair, but lazyboy only gives you 3 day return window, because they know if you try your chair longer, it will cause you pain. Basically, lazy boy DOES NOT stand behind their product. You guys should buy a recliner from anywhere else that has at least a 7 day return policy. I regret buying lazyboy. The lancer recliner just kills my neck no matter how much I try to sit on it. I don't have any physical problems either. In the store it was fine, but this chair they sent me feels completely different, it was a bait and switch, very unethical.
Same here... I figured out if I put a full pillow behind my back it keeps the padding in the headrest from pitching my head forward.. couldn’t figure out why my neck hurts and I had headaches... SAD
I've had a Pinnacle LazBoy for about 15 days and I am not satisfied customer. I want it to be like the one I tested at the store but it's not. It has even given me backaches. A technitian sent by their care company came, I am sitting on it right now and no, I still want the one at the store but I need at least half of my $$ back, I don't care if it is a few years old. And this is how I found this video. The messurements are perfect it's just the lumbar cushion, nah, it's not good.
I respect your opinion and facts about quality but I feel $2,000 is a lot for one chair just by adding a motor and quality leather I can't see how it raises the price $1,600 I'm on a limited income and because of my disability discharge would be great for me as I've seen the $2,000 chair but they're beyond my means
Hey Rick, there are power options that are less expensive. La-Z-Boy Recliners are made to order, so you can customize one to fit your needs. I added a link down below for La-Z-Boy Power Recliners. Maybe you'll be able to find an option that fits within your means. Don't forget to keep your eye on sales too. La-Z-Boy offers specials all the time and they do also offer finance options as well.

The power options bring the price up. Manual is ok for me if it saves some money. Quality and Construction are more important to me.
