Unique Features of La-Z-Boy Power Recliners
La-Z-Boy’s power recliners combine craftsmanship with modern comfort technology. Every recliner begins as a manually operated chair. Still, it can be upgraded to a power version that provides full control of your comfort through a side-mounted panel or wireless remote.
The adjustable headrest tilts up to 55 degrees, providing precise support for your neck and shoulders during reading or TV watching. Built-in lumbar support helps alleviate lower back strain, while zero-gravity reclining options available on select models elevate your feet above heart level for complete body relaxation.
Many models include USB charging ports and programmable memory settings that let you save your favourite reclining position.
“The smooth, quiet movement of our power recliners really impresses customers,” says Racha. “They’re intuitive, easy to use, and designed to support comfort in a way that feels completely natural.”

Customizations and Upgrades
La-Z-Boy provides one of the most comprehensive customization options in the furniture industry, allowing you to design your recliner to perfectly suit your comfort preferences and lifestyle.
Fabric and Leather Options
You can select from over 800 fabrics and leathers, including eco-friendly and antimicrobial choices. Popular performance fabrics offer stain resistance and pet protection, while premium leather upgrades give a luxurious, timeless appearance.
Cushion Firmness
La-Z-Boy offers different cushion densities to match your comfort preference. Firmer cushions provide additional lumbar support, while softer ones create a more relaxed, plush feel.
Cordless Power Pack
For greater flexibility in placement, you can add a rechargeable cordless power pack that lets you operate your recliner without a nearby outlet. A single charge supports 300 to 400 full recline cycles before recharging.
Swivel Base and Console Options
You can also add functional upgrades such as a 360-degree swivel base for full rotation or a center console with hidden storage, cup holders, and USB inputs. These options make the recliner more versatile and add convenience to your daily routine.
Each upgrade ensures your recliner not only fits your room but also enhances your lifestyle. To learn more about our Swivel Chair options, check out our list of Swivel Power Recliners.

Is a La-Z-Boy Power Recliner Right For You?
If you value convenience, ergonomic design, and enduring quality, a La-Z-Boy Power Recliner is an excellent investment. These models are especially beneficial for individuals with mobility concerns or those who simply prefer effortless comfort. The easy-to-operate power system minimizes strain, while premium materials ensure that each chair withstands years of daily use.
However, a manual recliner may be a better fit if your space lacks convenient power outlets or if you prefer a more lightweight and affordable option. La-Z-Boy’s optional cordless power battery pack can bridge that gap, allowing more flexibility in placement without losing the benefits of powered motion.
Racha notes, “Customers often tell me their power recliner becomes their favourite spot in the home; not just because it’s comfortable, but because it genuinely adapts to how they live and move.”
