Modern Recliners at La-Z-Boy

Nobody can dispute the comfort of a big and plush recliner chair. 

 

That said, recliner chairs don’t have the best reputation for their stylish appearance. In fact, many home decor fanatics refer to recliners as an “eyesore” amongst their otherwise aesthetically pleasing seating arrangement. 

 

For those seeking style, fear not! Select recliners at La-Z-Boy have evolved to cater to current trends by embodying a more modern style without sacrificing comfort.

Characteristics of a Modern Recliner

 

Before we dive into learning about the modern recliners offered at La-Z-Boy, it is important to note the general characteristics that make a recliner considered modern.

 

A modern recliner is an updated take on the traditional big, plush, and clunky recliner chair. 

 

Instead of being an eyesore in a room, modern recliners prioritize style by seamlessly fitting into your home design. In fact, many modern recliners can even compliment the look of a seating arrangement. 

 

Some modern recliners are so sneaky that they appear as a regular accent chair but have the unexpected ability to recline.

 

Modern recliners are typically narrow featuring slim arms, a tall back, clean lines, and sleek features. In contrast to puffy-looking recliners, modern recliners have a taute upholstery making them appear polished and firm.  

 

While they may not look as comfortable to the naked eye, modern recliners at La-Z-Boy do not compromise on comfort.
