Knabusch designed their very first reclining wood-slat chair. That chair would go on to launch the world-renowned La-Z-Boy® brand and a new category in furniture: the recliner.

La-Z-Boy continues to bring high-quality, comfortable items, made in the USA, to homes all over the world. With over 90 years of research and development, domestic manufacturing, and a strong supply chain, La-Z-Boy is a brand American’s know they can trust.

Real La-Z-Boy Customer Reviews

We enjoyed reviewing La-Z-Boy and think this brand is a great choice for:

  • Those who don’t mind paying for shipping and are comfortable with the 3 day exchange only option.

  • Those who would like the option of shopping online or in person.

Positive Experiences:

“Looks great in my living room and is very comfortable. We are very happy with our purchase. It is the style of couch we were looking for.”

“My wife and I purchased this sofa specifically looking for a more comfortable sofa. I cannot speak to its durability because we have gotten fairly recently, but overall we are very satisfied with this particular unit. It has had a couple of spills on it, but it was easily cleaned despite the light color. I would enthusiastically recommend this sofa.”

“It’s beautiful and very comfortable. I’m so glad I went with a performance fabric; it’s held up great and is so easy to clean. The color – Patina – comes off very neutral and the sofa can be incorporated into many home styles. Highly recommend!”

Negative Experiences:

“Purchased two of the same chair. Soon after warranty my wife’s chair broke. It was the toggle assembly. Then, shortly after my chair broke, same problem. Anyone thinking about La-Z-Boy…stay away please.”

“I waited 20 years to buy new living room furniture and decided to go with La-Z-Boy. Big mistake! The color on my $2000 leather recliner started to wear off after only a year. They sent a repairman and he stated that they should replace the chair. Well, years later, I have a chair that looks terrible! Most people don’t have the money to just go out and buy new furniture every year! Don’t buy from La-Z-Boy. Terrible customer service and cheap products.”
