The Comforts of Home

Eighty years ago, the La-Z-Boy tradition of comfort began with the creation of a covered wooden-slat chair with a reclining back. Since that time, La-Z-Boy has embarked on creating the most comfortable, high-quality furniture in the marketplace that reflects the latest styles and product innovations available. Today, the timeless appeal of style with comfort is still the mission of La-Z-Boy, and the latest trends are emphasizing this more than ever.

“Our offerings are designed for more than just a ‘look,’” said Rick Hughey, sales representative for La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries. “They are intently focused on quality and comfort and providing a soft place to land at day’s end.”

Latest La-Z-Boy options include deeper seats, extra padding in the seats and arms, pillowtops and more pieces that rock or recline. The Home Theater Collection features specifically designed seat backs for optimal sound and viewing and optional power footrests while catering to the desire of ultimate relaxation in the home.

Emerging trends include sophisticated looks polished with the latest fabrics, designed to be not only comfortable but also durable and easy to maintain. Popular now are softer fabrics like chenille in solid patterns, innovative performance fabrics reminiscent of suede but with ease in upkeep, and leather that is now more affordable and proven to last 75 percent longer.

“The strength of our offering is under $500 for recliners and $1000 or less for leather versions,” said Hughey. “With those kinds of prices, the average American can afford to buy La-Z-Boy furniture and get the highest standards of quality, style and comfort without breaking the bank.”

TV’s home improvement and design shows are a driving force behind La-Z-Boy’s newest trends. Consumers are inspired by this programming to decorate their own homes. Major national catalogues use this to build the latest desired look and La-Z-Boy, likewise, offers these same styles with the company’s signature quality and comfort. All living room groups offer a broad assortment of accent chairs and accessories to unify rooms and give a “finished” look, and with La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries proprietary In-Home Design program, customers can work with a degreed designer to create the room of their dreams.

With such an established commitment to providing stylish furniture focused on consumer comfort, it’s no wonder why La-Z-Boy defines its brand reputation as “Comfort. It’s What We Do.”
