La-Z-Boy is a pretty common household name. They are actually one of the world’s leading furniture producers for homes like mine and yours! However everyone knows that La-Z-Boy is best known for their world-famous recliners. Their recliners are used for nursing mothers, football fanatics and anyone looking for maximum comfort. Each and every La-Z-Boy recliner made helps its owner live life comfortably by adding the perfect seat to any living situation!
Brand new from La-Z-Boy is the most amazing innovation in reclining I have ever sat in; the PowerReclineXR! The PowerReclineXR offers a completely customized movement for a completely customized recline. With just the simple touch of a button, there are literally thousands of positions this chair can achieve! Instead of your usual bar or lever you move the back of the chair and leg rest of the chair with the simple push of a button!
The chair is now the most sought after seat in the house. We were sent a Maverick which is one of La-Z-Boys plusher models. The bucket seat and biscuit-style back offers the ultimate in relaxation! Coupled with generously padded arms, I have to be made to sleep in my bed instead of this chair! This is the official night time story chair- and is perfect size for two kids to snuggle in with me and dive into a book!
Even though you can not see the inside, there are two dedicated motors that move the PowerReclineXR chair. One that controls the back of the chair and one that controls the leg rest!
One of the things I was concerned about was Emmitt crawling around on the floor while one of the kids was using the chair. I was petrified that the leg rest would close on him if one of the kids was not paying attention and just playing with the remote. You can imagine how relieved I was when I read (and tested) that the leg rest will not close when it encounters an object in its path. I actually tried to close the leg rest with a balloon under it to see how hard the object needed to be “squished” before the motor would realize that there was something in it’s path. I was overjoyed when the balloon did not pop! Five stars in safety from me!
I know that a recliners main function is to recline- however I also like to have a chair I can rock a fussy baby to sleep in. Thankfully my PowerReclineXR also smoothly rocks back and forth!
Because the chair moves up and down with a remote I was a bit worried about what would happen if the power went out! Would I be stuck in the chair? Of course not. This baby has a battery backup made specifically to protect against power failures! The battery back-up will return the chair to the upright position in the event of a power outage.
You can get a La-Z-Boy PowerReclineXR in practically every style chair! Models include “Pinnacle,” “Anderson”,“Maverick”, “Joshua”, “Lancer”, and “Morgan” and an additional 40 styles will offer the technology upgrade by the end of 2012.
Buy It: The PowerReclinerXR by La-Z-Boy recliner is available at any La-Z-Boy Furniture Gallery near you as well as at www.la-z-boy.com! Prices depend on the style and fabric you choose!
Wow, I’ve never seen a power chair like this. It’s soooo difficult to lift the footrest part of our recliner. Probably because it’s very old. This looks amazing. Thanks for the review.
I got one for my birthday, but not with the vibration stuff in it. Don’t have anywhere to plug it in. I can’t wait till it gets here!!!
Another website sent me to your web-site can’t racell which site it was exactly, but I should go back and say thanks to them for showing me your site! Excellent work!
WOW! What a great review! I have always loved LA-Z-Boy!!
Wow! That is one hi tech chair. I am sure we would lose the remote as soon as we got it with a 3 year old running around though 🙂
The remote is attached to the chair!!!
even better!
These look amazing!! I think my biggest problem would be getting OUT of the chair once I sat down. COMFY!
Oh my goodness, that recliner is amazing. Love the remote it comes with too. It looks so comfortable!
OH WOW I really need one of these LOL
i love this recliner!!!!
I’ve got to get me one of these! We have a regular La-Z-boy, but this new chair is fabulous. I’ve always trusted the La-Z-boy name for quality and durability, but can’t wait to try one of these PowerReclineXRn chairs. I especially like the fact that there are multiple position to select from.
That is so cool! My Recliner is so hard to lift the foot rest.
I LOVE my La-z-boy’s LOVE LOVE LOVE. We have 3 of them, bought 2 when the twins were born and another one when my youngest was born for his room.
I love lazy boys I had no idea there was one out there like this. Will be going to buy one soon, Thanks for the review.
Want.want.want.! Maybe I’ll get one for xmas
The new La-Z-Boys look amazing! I want one to be extra comfy while I watch football.
Looks so comfortable!!!
awesome and comfy
That Maverick looks incredibly comfortable! I would love to own one of these.
I love it, makes me want one.
I got my recliner at Lazy boy and I love it. It’s not a fancy one but it’s one of the wider ones. Thanks for sharing! Makes me want another one,Lol!
La-z-Boys have always been a top of the line chair and now they are even better. I have always loved them and have got to get one of these!
What an awesome chair! Bet it’s super comfortable too 🙂
Those look soooo comfy and who would have thought. A chair with a back up battery Smart!
This is exactly what my husband and I need to buy his grandpa. He’s nearing that age where he won’t be around much longer, so we’ve decided to buy him a reclining chair so he’ll be as comfortable as possible while he’s still with us. I’m glad I read this post. I think I’m sold <3
I am falling asleep just looking at these chairs, they look super comfy!
I’ve always wanted a La-Z-Boy recliner! And someday I will have one – I’m making that vow right now. I love the safety feature too. I didn’t even know that a chair could do something like that. Technology can be amazing sometimes. When I get mine (I said when not if!) I will be sure to get the one with the safety feature.
Oh Wow – I would love one of these – so great after a long day!
I would totally love a chair like that.
From family experience lazy boy last for a very long long time, I would love to have one to snuggle up in.
La-Z-boy has been around forever it seems. They are great recliners . i like now because instead of trying to pull the lever all you have to do is push a button. Makes it really nice if your an older person. I like the sleek new designs of the chairs too. Also love the idea of how it helps if something is under the leg rest when it closes . I always worried about that with the kids and the cats. Thanks for the great chairs
I love Lazy Boy chairs! My dad had one for years when I was growing up and we have had one for many years too. Top of the line in comfort!
Love La-z-boy! We just got our first set about a month ago, I had no idea couches could be so comfortable!
That looks so comfy. I really need to upgrade!
I think this chair sounds amazing. I know my mother would love it! She has been talking about replacing her old chair with something new. This should be the one.
I have never had an easy chair. I would LOVE one for realxing and snuggling my babies. Nursing on our couch is pretty uncomfortable.
I would love to have my own chair that I didnt have to share with anyone else!
Looks extremely comfortable, even the arms are padded!
My husband has been wanting one for awhile and I think I’m going to cave soon, this might be worth it!
I love La-Z-boy! thanks for the review
I am glad to see this review. My husband needs a recliner for his everyday use and comfort. He has a bad back and I know they are very affordable. Thanks for the Christmas idea!
The La-Z-Boy PowerReclineXR looks very nice. Thanks for the interesting and informative review!
these look sooooooooo comfy!!
i really need to replace my la-z-boy – i’ve had it for nearly 8 years and it was used when i got it! i’ve recently had to use hot glue to repair it (i really need a torch welder, though!)
yeah, SO not in the budget… but it’s the only chair we have lol
I sure would like to have one of these , but then it wouldn’t be just for me–lol with six kids at home someone would always be sitting in it–lol SURE ARE NICE
Wow, what a wonderful chair, its matured a lot since the one my Dad had. I want one too, it looks so comfortable. What great technology they have integrated!
awesome! I need one!
Great review! This chair would be an awesome addition to our bedroom. Our new house will only fit a couch and love seat, but I sure do miss having a comfy chair to sit in!
I need one of these in my living room, I hate the furniture I have now it sucks!
Nice review, I would love to get one of these!
La-Z Boy recliners have been around for so long they are part of every home. I remember my Dad when he bought his first La-Z Boy recliner he was so proud, and even though we kids sat in it when Dad came home we jumped up because we all knew that was his chair..lol. I felt the same way when I got my recliner a few years ago. Your review is great and makes me want the new PowerRecline XR!
I would love one of these. My back and hips hurt me constantly. Being able to relax in a chair would be very helpful.
My parents have ALWAYS had at least one La-Z-Boy recliner in this home and I can tell you that even the “normal” ones are incredibly comfortable. My dad and I both have severe degenerative disc disease (I’ve already had 2 back surgeries and I’m only 30) and these recliners are so incredibly easy on our backs/legs and help bring comfort after a super painful day. Thanks for sharing your review on the power recliner — I’m going to pass it on to my dad!
I would love to have me a Lazy Boy!
I love my Laz-Z-Boy recliners! We have 2 right now & they are worn out. So its time for new ones. I wish we could afford to replace them right now because Im loving these new styles!
Oh man, I could totally use one of those! I need a big comfy chair to just relax in!

I think the best part of these is that they are motorized. I have a nice comfortable rocker at home and love the chair itself but would love it even more if I could get the leg rest down after i put it up. I have a heck of a time with it and wish that one had the motor! LaZBoy makes some great furniture and these really look nice as well.
La-Z-Boy has the best recliners, hands down. Good to know the PowerReclineXR has a battery backup!
Less than two years ago we purchased a La-z-boy recliner. I already had three Flexsteel sofas, one 8 years old and two 6 years old. Two are in a family room and get constant use. Long story but the 8 year old and 6 year old sofas are in the family room and are identical except that one is two years older. Both still look show-room new. We just replaced the La-z-boy recliner because it looked 20 years old, not two. We were tired of having to pick up pieces of plastic that fell off the bottom of the chair. I bought La-z-boy because La-z-boy is synonymous with recliners. What a mistake. This time I did my homework and found that Flexsteel also make recliners and all their frames are truly steel. If you want any upholstered furniture, look at Flexsteel. For just a few dollars more, you will many more years of use.
