My old stuff was falling apart that's why I purchased a sofa, love seat, recliner and a few other things from La-Z-Boy. The quality of my purchase was good. Interactions with their people were all very good just as well. Everybody inside the store is very pleasant and helpful. Somebody actually came out to our home and helped us get a plan and pick out pieces so it was awesome.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us, Kim. Our free In-home design program is truly one of a kind, much like our products. We're thrilled to hear how happy you are with your experience and new furniture. Thanks for choosing La-Z-Boy, and enjoy living life comfortably!

We just purchased two Grayson rocking recliners yesterday and so far love them. We are a bit regretful now that we didn't get the electric option so we could stop the rocking. Or is there an retro option to put on the rocking mechanism to switch off and on the rocking?
Margaret, thank you so much for taking the time to submit your review and tell us about your recliners! We're glad you had a good experience, but unfortunately, there is no way to convert or change the rocking mechanisms. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you for choosing La-Z-Boy.

My old furniture were ugly and I hated them so I did my first ever purchase from La-Z-Boy. I got a sofa, loveseat, chair, and ottoman. The first representative I met at their gallery was wonderful. She insisted that I have their free designer come and he was also wonderful. The delivery guys were friendly and did a very quick and thorough job. To add to all that, I think the quality of the furniture that I got is good. So I'd definitely recommend La-Z-Boy.

I've recently bought a chair from La-Z-Boy. I've had three other chairs over the years and each year it's greater, so they are nice. The sales reps were very good and professional. Delivery was on time too. This chair is the first I've had with the extra foam so I haven't gotten used to it yet.

I put a deposit on a rather expensive leather couch and sofa on 1/25/2015. It is now May and I have yet to receive my furniture. After waiting the initial 5 weeks that I was told it would be for delivery, I called at 6 weeks only to be told that my furniture was not ready and that it would be an additional 8 weeks. Since then I have called the corporate office many times only to be told that there is nothing that they can do because each store is independently owned. I have spoken with my salesperson, the store manager and the district manager and still there is no resolve to my situation. In fact every time I speak with someone the date that my furniture will be delivered continues to be extended.
As of today I was told that they would work on getting the furniture to me by the first week in June. They state that the reason for the delay is a leather shortage but this was never mentioned to me the day that I decided to purchase the furniture. I have demanded a refund of my deposit several time to no avail. The lack of communication and terrible customer service is completely unacceptable. La-Z-Boy seems to think that offering a $150 gift card to Ruth's Chris is going to make me feel better about the fact that they have had my money for 5 months and I do not have my product.
I would not ever recommend making a purchase from this company. My experience has been one that I have never experienced in my life. If you ever want to buy furniture DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Specifically the Spanish Fort, AL location.

We recently had our first purchase, a recliner, from La-Z-Boy. I'm actually 7 or 8 months pregnant and wanted to upgrade my nursing chair to a recliner. The sales representative was very helpful.

My experience with La-Z-Boy was pleasant. The salespeople were very nice and I even commended them to their manager because they were so kind. I wish I could just get my things a little faster but I understand that things take time. I love my furniture and I certainly have no complaints.

We purchased our loveseat and sofa in October of 2013. By October of 2014 we started noticing random parts falling off of the recliner when we reclined the loveseat every now and again. We placed these parts in a zip-lock bag, but thought it was something else as the recliner was still functioning. Fast forward to in April/May 2015. Our recliner on one side of the loveseat is not functioning well. I tried to call warranties several times, and even called the store for assistance. The warranty department finally called Friday, May 1, 2015 per the request of the store. I explained the problem to the warranty rep. She claims she is the supervisor when requesting to speak to one. She wanted to charge me $99 for the rep to come out and look at my loveseat, and then charge me for labor. I can tell her what is wrong with the loveseat...the pieces are falling off!
Come Sunday May 3, 2014, the problematic recliner completely broke. My fiance had to tilt the couch back to try and rectify the situation. Now we are unable to recline that side of the loveseat at all. Yet we have only had this loveseat for a year and a half. The quality is very poor. The craftsmanship is very poor, oh yes, and did I mention that they had to replace this loveseat already once? I am so angry. We spent over $2000 on this set and I feel like I just threw money away. So incredibly disappointed and I would like a functioning loveseat. I guess that is asking too much. Maybe I should take the loveseat down to the warehouse myself with my newborn to avoid the home visit fee of $99. Just ridiculous.

I went to the La-z-boy store on February 22 with the intent of purchasing a sofa and loveseat, along with side tables and anything else that caught my eye for my living room. The sales people were great and we ended up ordering a sofa, loveseat, side tables, and a bench costing almost $6000 (after accounting for the sale they had on). They promised delivery in 6-8 weeks. I believe I was quite consistent in telling the folks that timing of delivery was of utmost importance to me.
On March 16, I received a voicemail simply stating that my furniture was delayed. When I called back, they explained that my order was delayed because the leather we selected was not in stock (note that this was ~4 weeks after my order was taken). I asked whether it'd be possible to have another dark brown leather and have it delivered on time, but they said no... because the same thing could happen again since they have no visibility into what leathers/fabrics are available. So they provided me with a discount.
A few weeks later, they called again to tell me that my furniture was delayed again because of the same issue. This time to at least June 20. I again requested that they get me another dark brown leather and they told me the same thing. So they provided me with another discount. Per my initial statement, timing of delivery was very important to me. At this point, I'm not sure how La-Z-Boy will address this. I'd appreciate better clarity into when my furniture definitely will be delivered, possibility of another dark brown leather being provided so my furniture can be delivered sooner, and/or significant compensation to make this right. Unfortunately, I'm not a happy camper at the moment.
Note: I think the La-Z-Boy store people have been excellent. I hope that the La-Z-Boy corporate folks will be able to address this for me, as I think it is on their end that these issues are occurring. My understanding is that folks in the store have simply been a messenger of bad news and aren't empowered to fix the situation with their supply chain - - which I believe is unfortunate management by La-Z-Boy.

We recently purchased a sectional and a recliner with La-Z-Boy. We already have two rocker recliners from them before. We decided to give our stuff as hand-me-downs and get new ones. It was funny because the first time we went in, we bought a sofa, love seat and then we left and came back shortly, and bought a rocker recliner, and then about an hour later we came back and bought the second rocker recliner. The whole sales staff was there again and gave us a good experience. The delivery guys were friendly and careful. I love the quality of the furniture so far so I would recommend La-Z-Boy.

We recently moved in a new house and needed to update our furniture. We picked the La-Z-Boy since we liked the sale representatives, very kind and helpful. We purchased the furniture worth 5000$, waited for two months to be delivered. Four out of five products were defective. We were so concerned about the quality. The store designer mentioned that products are going to be repaired and shipped again. I was requesting to cancel the order one of the items (dining table which had a very bad balance and was a real safety issue.) The store insisted on delivery.
The CSR at the headquarters was very impolite, her Supervisor did not want to get to the phone. They have been repeating over and over again that it is the responsibility of the store and basically there are no refunds. The Store that does not call me back! We have no money, no furniture and very bad aftertaste of a whole experience. I hope that after posting this message somebody responsible will try to contact us. Our store is in Cranberry, Pa.

I'm very happy with La-Z-Boy. We purchased our first recliner for our home in Wisconsin, but we have another home where we bought four recliners down in Alabama. Their quality is very good except my recliners are very lightweight. And when I sit down and get up, they tend to scoot so I have to keep pulling them forward. But I've fixed that and I've put something on the bottom to make it stick to the carpet.

Our first La-Z-Boy furniture was about 8 to 10 years ago. Recently we purchased a sofa, some chairs, and an ottoman from them again. Their sales reps have all been pleasant and the furniture's quality is very good. The delivery team were wonderful and they even moved the furniture around for me until I was satisfied. The only issue is they originally wouldn't let us take swatches out of the store. But they finally agreed to let me take one home to match with other colors. However, the interior designer brought out certain ones and we didn't decide on any so I had to go back and look again. It was almost a bit of a farce on that end. It's hard to look at fabrics and swatches under poor lighting so it's almost impossible to make a choice without taking them out. They made me feel like I was asking to cut their right arm off but that was my only problem with them. As far as the furnishings and the furniture, we were very pleased.
Thanks Sheri for submitting your feedback! We're thrilled to hear you had a great experience, and that you found the perfect furniture and cover to match your home.

The couch and chair we were delivered was not the same quality that we had sat on in the store. The couch frame already broke! We spent $4,000.00 on junk! It's not comfortable at all. We never took the tags off of the couch because it just felt different but at the time they had delivered it I had just had surgery so I wasn't up to going back to the store to sit on the floor model again. When we finally did go back to the store and sat on the floor model we knew for sure it was different than what they delivered to us. We have been talking to many people at La-Z-Boy and their customer service and even their Corporate office to get this corrected. My husband took two days off of work to be home for La-Z-Boy to come to our house. And nothing was done either time.
Their Customer service is the worst ever and very rude! We have been trying to get them to fix this since February and still NOTHING! THEY DON'T LISTEN! The Managers are NEVER IN AND DON'T RETURN PHONE CALLS! This was an investment for us. We aren't rich! We just want what we paid for. This is our second time purchasing from La-Z-Boy. Our first was many many years ago when we bought a couch and two rocking recliners but now the quality of the furniture and the service is worse than at any business that I have ever seen. We feel like we could have got the same thing for a lot less at big lots. We wanted quality furniture that would last for many years but this junk hasn't even lasted a year.

I ordered a sofa and two leather rocker/recliners on Jan 22, 2015. I was called about two months ago saying one recliner and the sofa had been received.

I would never purchase anything from them again as long as I live in this area. Perhaps another store might be better. It was just not a nice experience. There was nothing good about it except for the delivery people who were very nice. They did an excellent job. And then we had a couple of issues with the manager, assistant manager and the girl who was supposedly called the decorator so it was just bad. It was a very large purchase so if anyone's gonna spend the amount of money I spent on furniture, they would not appreciate it in any way, shape or form. The initial salesperson I talked to was a nice person, but everybody else could have cared less. Whether I would have spent $50.00 or $300,000.00 to them, it did not matter. They were dishonest and I think the store will never change. It just upsets me.

First off I paid for delivery and set up. Secondly I purchased a 5 year warranty - the chair is electric. When my chair was delivered the movers had a hard time getting the chair in the house and had the foot rest extended fully. The chair started making hard thumbs when using the leg rest and initially the chair was not set up correctly, being the back was not connected to the chair correctly one side was not in the slots to hold the back to the chair. After two days of wondering what was wrong with it I found it was not put together right and checked online to see how to connect the back. As I was doing that I notice that a spring was laying on the floor that belonged to the chair. The spring had been stretched out of proportion and could not be reattached (I believe it was from lifting the chair by the open leg rests.. so the spring was stretched so bad that it would not stay on).
I called La-Z-boy about the loud clanging when I lift the leg rest and the spring. They did replace the spring but refuse to acknowledge the chair is making abnormal noise when I bring the legs rest up... (it starts making a loud clunking noise and you can feel it hitting hard). It can't be normal and if it is, this is the worst designed chair in the world. Who wants to hear loud clunking every time you use your chair? La-Z-boy has come out before the person that came out last was extra rough on the chair trying to show me that it's not going to break but would you want your furniture treated like that? It's a bit disrespectful. The bottom line is I am totally unhappy with this chair (BECAUSE IT ISN'T WORKING RIGHT!). I have made it clear I don't like that loud clunking. It always come from the right same side as the stretched out spring was on.
And this is the deal, my wife is in hospice and dying from cancer and I have the chair next to her bed, the idea was that I could sleep in the chair if needed when she is sick. But the chair is so loud and makes us nervous and it startles my wife and reminds us how we have been treated over this defective chair... We paid over 1200.00 for this chair and I have never felt so ripped off In my life. The person coming out says they will back the chair but don't call unless the chair is broken in pieces. So for my warranty to work, the chair has to be literally BROKEN like an arm falling off or??? I would never purchase another La-Z-boy product. Anyone can have a bad item once in awhile or make a mistake with assembly but not making 1 right is unacceptable...
The warranty is lousy, they have shown no intentions on making this right.. They just come out and if I wasn't going through so much with my wife being so sick I would be getting a lawyer. I don't have the energy or fight left in me or time to deal with this. Try being a caregiver to your wife and deal with La-Z-boy that has been out here twice and should have made this right - it's apparent this could go on forever..... You win La-Z-boy. I'm the loser but you have lost me as a customer. I am not pursuing this any longer. It's 1200 dollars I might as well of given to charity, I would be feeling a whole lot better if I had.... If it's that important to La-Z-boy not to make this right good on you. Personally I could never do someone this way...

We purchased 2 new La-Z-Boy recliners for $990 each and they were delivered mid January 2015. The leather on the back portion wrinkled and became very baggy in just a few months. I called the store and complained. They delivered new chairs and the same bagginess happened after just 1 day! (We sit in the chairs for just a few hours in the evening.) They were sold to me as real leather but I have my doubts that this is leather. The regional manager re-stuffed the chair and brought them back to my house. The back still wrinkles down when you sit in the chair and you feel a loose flap of leather on your lower back. I was still not satisfied so again, for the 3rd time, they are ordering me new ones in hopes for better foam and material. In the meantime, every time they bring in new chairs, I have to reschedule my life and they damage my trim and walls when moving furniture. Such an inconvenience!
La-Z-Boy was always my favorite furniture company and I'm so sad that they would provide a product that is such poor quality. We have owned many La-Z-Boy items in the past and it seems that after 2007, things have been very poor quality. Sadly, I won't buy from them again.

It was a long road to receiving my new couch but la-Z-boy came through and did the right thing. Thank you to consumer affairs for printing my review because I'm not sure the outcome would have been the same.
Original Review: April 27, 2015
My couch was delivered and the fabric does not match the sample from the store. My couch is many shades darker. I did sign for them upon delivery only after repeatedly telling the guy I think he was delivering the wrong couches. He never gave me the option of declining delivery. I went back to the store with one of the pillows that were delivered. I retrieved the sample fabric and spoke with the store manager and 2 other employees. They all agreed that there was a problem. The store manager said she would see what she could do. I was under the strong impression that they would take back the couches (which would have been the fair and right thing to do) and I would be able to choose a new fabric...so much so that I cancelled the delivery of the final and major portion of the couch...the chaise lounge section.
After a week of multiple calls (and not one returned call) to the store manager, I was just informed that that there's nothing they can do. The design consultant made the decision without ever seeing the sample and my pillow together. This is a $6,000 couch that I do not want. We put $3,000 down and I either want my money back or a new couch. The store is located in Cerritos, California. The store manager's name is **.

Purchased 2 La-Z-Boy Recliners and the salesman mentioned that it was new, never used before brand of fabric. It took 3 months to get the recliners because of the new fabric. The recliners were delivered 3/19/2014. This past winter we noticed that both recliners had a worn spot on the footrest. By February my recliner's footrest fabric had worn to the padding underneath. Unfortunately, I didn't contact the store for warranty service until third week of April, 2015. I missed the deadline by less than 4 weeks and there is nothing they will do. It started wearing through long before the warranty ended, I just failed to contact them soon enough. Their warranty department told me I am responsible for reupholstering my 2 recliners because I didn't report it in the time frame.
I would think that the fabric La-Z-Boy uses would last longer than a year (actually started wearing at about the 9th month). I am stuck with two very expensive recliners that have worn through spots on the footrest of the recliners. I believe this new fabric is inferior. I have had La-Z-Boy recliners before and the fabric did not wear through to the padding.

We purchased a Rex Sectional Sofa, less than one year ago and have had a technician come out twice. The sofa squeaks and groans when you sit down on it (my husband and I are both under 150 lbs - we are not heavy people). The cushions are sagging in, the couch is very flimsy and feels like it is made of cheap particle board holding up sinking sagging cushions. The technician acknowledged there was a problem, but told us "not to lay on a sofa," you're "only supposed to sit in an upright position". I looked at him stunned! This is his explanation on why our sofa groans and creaks and is sagging in when we have had it less that 1 year!?
We happened to see the Store Manager from Timonium, MD 1 week ago - we told him the sofa is a piece of crap and totally defective. He took down our name and number and said he would investigate it and call us back - we have not heard from him. The sofa is completely defective, we paid over $2,700 for a defective couch only to have a technician tell us its our fault for laying on the sofa. We want a full refund or a store credit very minimum. Please make this good La-z Boy, and stand behind your product!

I cannot begin to explain how frustrating it is to deal with poorly run companies. I purchased a power rocker recliner, in Nov. 2014.

When the chair arrived, the padding was so poor you could feel the chair frame through the armrests and back, the metal bar in the headrest and the square block which was supposed to be lumbar support. Also, the terrible squeaking sound from the rocking and the skipping of the footrest as it was raising, was enough for me to call La-Z-Boy.
La-Z-boy sent a technician. I watched him pretend to grease the springs even though he and I both knew his grease bottle was empty. I am pretty sure he was loaded. I offered to let him use my oil and he refused. It was seriously ridiculous:) like something in a comedy on TV. He then told me the padding was in fact terrible and he would order me a new back and padding for the arm rests. He said the squeaking would go away as the grease worked in. Of course, the squeaking never stopped and the chair actually got worse.
I called back La-Z-Boy immediately and went through the exhausting and abrasive customer service exercise, again. This time La-Z-Boy customer service was extremely rude and the repair company told me I needed to wait 6 weeks for parts to arrive, until they would send another tech. While controlling my blood pressure I kindly asked the repair company if they would please, please, send out another tech. Yes, I had to resort to begging. They agreed. The tech arrived and he told me there was nothing he could do. He said the entire frame was loose and all the padding was bad. He said I needed a new chair. Mind you, I bought this chair for my comfort as I would recover from my SPINAL SURGERY.
Long story longer, I had to be berated by customer service and fight for a chair replacement. The supervisor was so rude, I actually asked her if there was something I had done to anger her...The tech said he would send the report that everything needed to be replaced, but he was not allowed to decide if I needed a new chair. Ludicrous! After some discussion, I was approved for a new chair. Some days later, the paperwork was approved for me to get a new chair. I was told I had to call the store and arrange everything. What a joke! When I inquired about how long that was going to take, I was told 6 weeks. I did not have a working chair for my recovery from spinal surgery. In fact, it was miserable. I now sit in my weeks old, brand new chair and just got off the phone with customer service. I requested a technician to come out and deal with the worsening squeaking and clicking in the springs, as the chair rocks.
La-z-Boy should be ashamed of themselves. They bring down the name of this great country and its workforce, every time they mention the products are American Made. American Made is not something you can just say, it is horn in your actions and the quality of the care put into the product. "American Made" is to showcase the great strengths of our manufacturing and workforce; it is not something that should be taken lightly. I have been treated poorly by La-Z-Boy and they disrespect the flag every time they pretend like they care about the consumer.
Updated on May 2, 2015: My power recliner squeaks when rocking. This chair is a replacement of my previous chair (frame stability issues), which too, was only months old. NEW CHAIR: The technician was at my house Thursday April 30th at 8:45 am. He took off the backing, tightened bolts on either side of the backing, and the squeak went away. Today is Saturday May 2nd. Less than 48 hours later the squeak is back and just as bad. I called Customer service 15 minutes ago and was told the earliest they could get a technician to me was Friday May 8th. I requested Customer Service email the technicians to try and find an earlier date, after being told this was the only option. This will be the 4th time I have had a La-Z-Boy technician to my house.
My last review was disputed by La-Z-Boy for factual discrepancies. I have never been provided any documentation regarding what parts of my previous review were not factual. I have in fact, in a written message to the help desk at consumeraffairs.com, offered documentation to support my previous review. I have not been contacted by anyone. I did not lie nor did I embellish in my previous review or this one. In my previous review I said things that I am sure were hard for La-Z-Boy to hear and I did give my opinion of their company. My opinion is based entirely on my interaction with the Customer Service and Warranty Department of La-Z-Boy, as well as supervisors within those departments.

My family and I went into your Greenville, Sc location and got no help at all. We walked around looking for a little and still no one said a thing to us.

Since early February they have been waiting on parts to fix it. It is now April 24th. Every time I call to inquire about it it takes almost two weeks before I get a return phone call. No one seems to have a sense of urgency to get it repaired. I assume this is business as usual at La-Z-Boy. I just filled out an online complaint... we'll see how far that goes. :-(

Purchased a recliner and love seat, within 8 month the frame work was being felt through the arm rests and the chassis under one side of the sofa needed to be replaced. This all started with a call in the first week of Jan. The representative from La-Z Boy came to our home on Jan 19th 2015. Created a work order for the repairs, the end of the sofa needed to be reupholstered. 3 or 4 weeks later they took the sofa to be repaired, also the love seat had a piece of metal starting to come through the seat cushion. A week later they returned the sofa and picked up the love seat. They replaced the 2 ends of the sofa with part that had a different fabric. We called that day, it still has not been corrected.
Our love seat has been at their repair shop since Feb. 22nd, still waiting for replacement parts. We would like to have our money back so we can buy some furniture to have at our house. They said that it was a custom order so no chance at a refund. We ordered this which was the same as the floor model that we were sitting on when we picked the fabric and ordered the furniture.
Today is April 23, the repair shop called to let me know that Company had sent them an Email telling them to continue repairs on the love seat. They won't get the part until around the 28th of April, so the love seat has been in their shop for over 2 months, and the sofa still needs to be repaired correctly.

Our relationship with La-Z-Boy furniture extends back to our first sofa after our marriage some 35 five years ago. Through many moves and purchases from La-Z-Boy stores across the country we have always been satisfied and I admit, comfortable. On February 25, 2015 we purchased a sofa and 2 pillows. The sofa was promptly delivered on February 27, 2015 and is just as we ordered. The pillows were rejected and sent back with the driver as they were paisley and not the same material as the sofa as we were told. We had a discussion with the sales associate at the time of purchase and my wife was very specific that the paisley pillows were not acceptable and that pillows with material matching the sofa were the only acceptable product. The sales associate assured us we would receive the matching pillows.
I telephoned the Fredericksburg, VA La-Z-Boy store after the driver departed and explained the reason for rejecting the pillows. The store associate said they would check with management. I later received a telephone call and was told that the sales associate was new and the manager would make the sale right by getting pillows that matched the sofa material. It would however take about 6 weeks.
On April 22, 2015, having not received any communication from La-Z-Boy in excess of 6 weeks, I telephoned the local store. I was told that the computer had everything marked as completed. But, management would be consulted and I would receive a return phone call. Now after a 24 hour wait with no communication, I can see that there is a problem that needs to be raised to get resolution. This seems a small matter that could have been easily resolved. Having experienced La-Z-Boy store customer service across the US, I fully understand this is only a local store management issue.
Thank you for taking the time to submit your review and bring this matter to our attention. We are very sorry to hear abou the inconvenience with the pillows and the communications concerns. We appreciate the feedback, and will reach out to the local store. Thank you,

We have purchased a 3-seater reclining sofa and a reclining love seat (Beige Color, microfiber), more than a year ago from La-Z-Boy, El Camino Real, Santa Clara, CA store. That store has moved to Steven Creek, San Jose, CA now. I have a severe safety complaint for this product. My daughter (12 year) was playing on the living room floor in front of the sofa and she jumped with joy on the sofa facing the back of sofa, on knees to sit. Her right knee hit the frame support between the cushions so hard that it partially tore patellar tendon tissue in her knee.
She had to go through MRI and now she is on crutches and knee immobilizer. These models are poorly designed and if you put your finger between the cushions on join, it will land directly on hidden frame bars, which are too risky for the kids as they always jump and play. Along with this feedback/complaint, I have to get rid of this thing immediately. I would appreciate the suggestion/options from your side.

About 4 years ago we purchased from Aldis a 3 seater sofa with a 2 seater sofa and a single armchair. I then took out an insurance to cover any problems that we could have with these items. I recently noticed that one side of the 3 piece sofa was lower than the other seats. I informed Aldis and they told me to contact the insurance company. I did this and a representative of the company visited us. His response to the problem was that the foam had compressed and that we should vary the seating so that all of the seats were used in rotation. I am very unhappy with this. We purchased a top range suite and unfortunately have not had the kind of service that we expected. It would maybe been better to select a cheaper unit and replaced it after 4 years.

I ordered sofa and loveseat from my local store. I specifically asked sales rep about delivery time frame as I was planning for house warming party. They gave me 8 to 12 weeks window and assured it will be delivered in 10 weeks. On the day of delivery, they called us saying our furniture arrived broken and could not be delivered. They asked us to wait for a week. Later on, they told us they are ordering a new piece of furniture.
I called them after two weeks to get the status of my order as I have family visiting and there is no place to sit. Store manager tells me they are waiting for the part to fix the furniture. She did not really care at all about how inconvenient it would be for me to have all these people in house without a place to sit. Her explanations were "things happen", "world is not perfect", "one of Ashley's customer had to wait 18 weeks so we are not that bad". I asked her about current ETA. She refused to give me any time frame as they never get it right. She tried to convince me that they have my furniture in their store ready for delivery if I like with the exception of it being broken.
She thinks La-Z-Boy kept it promise by making it available in their store. I had ordered other furniture earlier from other local store. They were late by two weeks. I got updates from them few times. It arrived last week. As a good gesture, they slashed the price of my furniture by 40% as I had to host my family without bedroom furniture. La-Z-Boy really needs to learn about good customer service. I wish I looked at this website and many other before even stepping into their store. MY BEST ADVICE IS DO NOT BUY LA-Z-BOY.

As a loyal La-Z-Boy customer, I was disappointed in a corporate policy during my most recent purchase. Specifically, I attempted to purchase a showroom recliner to fill an immediate need. After identifying the recliner of my choice in the showroom, I was advised that the chosen recliner was part of a new vignette series and not available for immediate purchase. Rather, this unit would need to be ordered with an expected delivery of 2-3 months from point of sale. As a result, I had to settle for a less desirable recliner to meet my needs.

For 20 years our old leather sofas happily endured wear and tear due to my open house policy for my sons friends as they gathered around the television, ate and yelled and laughed at the TV. My family room was always filled with happy noises. Then my husband was diagnosed with cancer and the house grew quiet as he couldn't walk due to a growing tumor. So again our leather sofas were used as beds as my husband lay on one and the family took turns sleeping on the other to keep him company or if he needed help. When my husband passed away I couldn't look at the sofas without seeing him in his final days. So I decided to finally replaced them.
So what did I do? I went to La-Z-Boy. I selected a sectional that sits easy 7 people. I was looking forward to the day my family room filled with laughter again. Well, the sectional arrived, but there is a problem - they don't stay closed!!! They have a PLASTIC latch that is used for this design. I called La-Z-Boy and they sent a technician over. Because the latches are not broken, they don't have to be replaced. What they are is DEFECTIVE. If they don't do what they are supposed to do then it's time to seek new alternatives.
Their solution? Plastic Zip-ties. Seriously??? What a joke!!!! This is a bandage remedy, eventually the zip-ties will snap and again I will have to call La-Z-Boy to correct the problem. Not only that with the opening and closing of the sofa are scratching my wooden floors. Again I called La-Z-Boy and was given the run around. In a nutshell - those are the latches, they are not broken, deal with it. I will not deal with, nor recommend La-Z-Boy to anyone!!!

About three years ago I bought La-z boy Texas recliner, white leather, thinking they would last me a lifetime. They looked great, they were super comfortable and the La-z boy brand has a good name, so naturally I assumed I was buying a good product, and didn't mind the hefty price tag. I waited 3 months for these to arrive, only to find out that they were made in China, not the USA as I had thought. After about a year the comfortable had turned into flat and hard. I called the store and they, in fact, sent someone out to have the chair in question, the one I am sitting on all the time, refilled.
Ever since then the recliner mechanism isn't as smooth anymore. Ok, but I was willing to live with that. But now the leather is starting to split. Mainly in the back rest, but also on the arm rests. The leather attracts stains, and is very hard to clean. The recliner looks like it's 20 years old, and has never been cared for. I will contact the supplier, but I don't have much hope that it will be fixed. The warranty doesn't cover the fabric, as far as I know. Besides, I shouldn't have these issues in the first place, if this were a quality product. So angry that I didn't buy from Super A-mart, would have paid at least $3000.- less and probably received better quality. I feel terribly ripped off. I can't even sell these duds, who would want to buy them?

I like many of the customers who wrote reviews, waited an exorbitant amount of time for my furniture. However, I thought that the quality would be worth the wait. Several weeks after delivery, one of the reclining sections would not go fully back into position after being sat in. This section looked like it was sagging back. I made an appointment to have them come out a week later. I called several times to let the service manager know I would not be able to be home until 3:30. He put that in the notes and assured me I was the second to last on the stop so it would be after I got home. Of course when I got home, they had already been there.
I felt relieved when I called the store manager and he said “I promise I will take care of you. Let me get this worked out.” He asked me to send him a few quick pictures and I did. I was not prepared for his response... Within an hour he sent me an email stating that my couch is normal and he sent pictures of his floor model saying it looks the same. He also said I was welcome to come in and discuss it with him. I quickly drove the hour to the store and took pictures of the same couches he sent me. They did not look at all like mine or what he sent me. I sat in them and reclined. When I put them in the upright position the store couches almost aligned and looked nothing like mine. The salesman agreed. I have four sections on the love seat and couch and none of the sections have this issue but one so I find it hard to believe this is normal.
In addition the store manager said he sent the pictures to the service department when I originally sent them and he also confirmed that this is normal. I waited a long time to purchase the right couches because I wanted something that would last. I chose La-Z-Boy because of the name. I also bought the extended coverage just to be sure that I would not have any issues. I have never been more frustrated with the quality and lack customer service. No customer should have to spend this amount of time to get a resolution to their defective furniture and be told it is normal. No one even came out to look at the couch. I am attaching the pictures of my normal couches... Will never buy from La-Z-Boy again.

The one La-Z-Boy we went to which was in Robinson was terrible. The sales associate didn't even help us and never came around. We left that store because they are horrible and so we went to Monroeville. They were very nice there. They helped us about the colors and the patterns and how much money it would be. They were much more helpful. The Monroeville store is awesome. The furniture is also nice and the delivery team who came to our house were fine. They set it up upstairs and made sure it worked. It was pretty quick. I wasn't expecting how long it took them to make the chair but it turned out okay.

My mother has actually been the one dealing with this issue for over six months now. The both of us went to the La-Z-Boy location at 15905 Katy Freeway Houston, TX sometime at the end of 2013 while my father was recovering from a carotid endarterectomy and then a quadruple bypass heart surgery to purchase a new power recliner for when he returned home. We paid for an extended warranty just in case anything ever happened to the chair, specifically because he cannot be without it since he sleeps in it. The chair broke a little over 6 weeks ago and my mother has been given an absolute runaround trying to get it fixed for weeks and weeks.
First they say the weather is bad so they can't get the part right away...... then it's another excuse for the amount of time it takes the repairman to get out there. My mother has spoken with over 4 different people at La-Z-Boy trying to get this issue resolved. The repairman finally shows up and puts the new modified spring in the chair and then says "that isn't going to fix it and it needs a motor now." No one from La-Z-Boy can give my mother any sort of estimate on the amount of time it is going to take them to get this motor and it may not even fix the issue. In the meantime, my father's legs are swelling up because he is not able to keep them elevated as the doctor has required him to do since his chair is broken.
La-Z-Boy has the absolute worst customer service team that I have ever seen in my entire life at any company. No one contacts you when you submit emails. No one calls you back when you call to ask questions. Essentially their left arm doesn't know what their right arm is doing at this company. They get many different people involved in something and they span the state at different locations and none of them are able to take any action at all. I have requested to be contacted by someone in upper management and they are ignoring me now so I have no alternative, but to file with the BBB to have this taken care of.
My next step is to contact my lawyer. I will definitely file a lawsuit for reimbursement of medical expenses if my father ends up in the hospital again because he cannot elevate his legs because his chair has been unusable as purchased for over six weeks. Do NOT buy a chair from this company. After they have taken all of your money (over $1,300) for this power recliner. They will simply act like they never knew you and that you do not exist.

We have had one piece of La-Z-Boy furniture that we bought in Maryland about 9 years ago and it was just a single piece but now we bought a whole collection. This is the first time we purchased for a whole room. We've been here in Wichita about 2 years and brought furniture with us from Maryland that didn't exactly fit this space and decided to look for something more appropriate. We worked with their design team and it worked out great. We've only had the power recliner a couple of weeks and as of this moment, it's outstanding. I'm just waiting to see how long these buttons that activate the recliner last. I'm hoping it lasts forever. My experience with their team was absolutely wonderful. They came in and were respectful of the space. They put down plastic and took all the trash away. They waited patiently while we tested all the pieces out to make sure everything worked.

We were told our furniture would arrive in 4-6 weeks. After more than 6 weeks we called and were told by a different rep that 6-8 weeks was standard. At about 7 1/2 weeks they called to set up delivery and didn't have Saturday availability for 10 days. We commented that we should have priority for the upcoming Saturday and this was accommodated. Everything was delivered but the floor-room tables were still loose and scratched which we had been promised would not be the case. (My husband ended up doing the repairs.) One lamp was shattered and taken back by the delivery team.
Now it has been 4 weeks and no word on the replacement lamp until I again called to find out the status. A rep said he would call me back the next day. 3 days later I got a call. At that time I was told it would be at least another week before the new lamp is delivered. So in all we have been waiting nearly 3 months to have everything in our home. They did remove the delivery fee which was nice. But overall they seem pretty uncaring about our frustrations. We had intended to buy furniture for a dining room and another living room but will most likely shop elsewhere now.

We have been La-Z-Boy bigots for these years. We love La-Z-Boy. That's the only place we shop for furniture. I grew up in a home that had La-Z-Boy. We didn't go any place else for a recliner or a sofa. I'm beginning to think that was a mistake. Recently, we had a remodeling and I thought it was just time to buy new furniture. We had yet another new living space and I wanted to replace what was in the family room. But with the pieces we bought, I couldn't be more disappointed.
Neither sofa opens reliably, and I waited more than three months for the delivery of one that would work at all for one of the sofas. And they wanted to deliver it in January when I'd already waited my six or eight weeks. And when it got to the distribution center, it wasn't working. And this was January 14th it was supposed to be delivered, and on January 14th I received a phone call saying it wasn't gonna be delivered that day because it wasn't working that great. I don't want defective furniture.
Then two days later, I get the call that said I wouldn't receive it until the first or second week of March. I'm sorry, I had already waited an awfully long time and then I needed to wait for something that was already manufactured, but to get the parts and to get it installed and fixed, I needed to wait yet another eight weeks. That was totally unacceptable. Then it showed up at my house and it still didn't work, and it went back on the truck. So I think there's a serious production issue going on with La-Z-Boy.
I'm angry. I actually am hoping that I'll get some level of compensation. I could use a few accessories or something. The furniture itself, I cannot recommend to anyone. But I'd have to say that their sales representative was absolutely great. Worked with us on options, both on the furniture itself but then also on the fabrics and colors. She was absolutely terrific. She would call me and keep me up to date. The delivery guys were fabulous as well. I'm happy with delivery and sales. I would like to buy La-Z-Boy in the future because it was so reliable. What I'd really like to see on La-Z-Boy's website is that they've taken feedback from people where they're not happy and that this is what they are doing about it. This is how they are improving their furniture.

We went to look for a leather sofa and chair the other night. We mentioned to the salesman that we had looked elsewhere and that we were comparing prices. He told us that "he would match any price that we found." He did not give any restrictions and I found a great sale that was current and in Canada, at another La-Z Boy store with an online advertising. The cost of the sofa, the Gavin, which we wanted, was $200 higher than the one in this store, but you were guaranteed a FREE rocking La-Z-Boy, at the listed price. For us at the Burlington store, that would mean an extra $700 SAVINGS if they would match the other corporate store deal.
I called the salesman this morning. He asked the manager who apparently asked someone else and in the end, the answer was "NO." Now I was told that the offer had to be a written order and from a store in Ontario. Well the other store was in Vancouver so that was not possible and furthermore, they just changed the rules of the game. I have done this price matching before and an online advertisement is more than enough proof in every other store.
Needless to say, I believe that we were misled. They hooked us and then just threw us back in. If you are going to tell a customer that you will price match any deal, then DO WHAT YOU SAY YOU WILL DO. We aren't sure what we will do, but we don't like the lies and deceit. They may have lost over $3000 in sales from us as we will be going back to look at a different set and not at a La-Z-Boy store. In this competitive market you have to be honest with consumers and they definitely were not honest.

I ordered a leather recliner and upon delivery, realized it had problems. It made a lot of noise when rocking. I called to have it repaired and upon pick up, the delivery service La-Z-Boy uses, put several 5-7 inch scratches onto my wood floor. When I called to complain, I was given the run around and told I would be called back. This never happened.
Today, when the chair was to be returned, the same delivery service brought it back and carelessly had it shoved up against the back of their truck, on its side. They proceeded to roll it around, scratching up the swivel base even more than it already was from their handling. This is a leather chair I paid a lot of money for and it was being treated like a kickball. There was also a young boy with the drivers who was trying to act like he was a worker. Totally inappropriate. I recommend picking up any furniture you can rather than using their delivery service. When contacted, they once again said they'd call me back and never did. So while the actual La-Z-Boy company is willing to replace my chair, I'm left with a scratched floor from their horrible delivery service.

Delivered furniture on April 4, 2015 at around 11:30 am, by 2:30 center seat on couch was broken. Wood frame came apart and center seat cushion fell down. I called our local store about the problem and they had La-Z-Boy customer care contact us within a couple of hours. We were told that the warranty contractor would contact us on 4-6-15.
We did not receive a call as promised. We decided we would give them until the next day to contact us for warranty repairs. After several more calls to our local store, we were finally contacted by Advantage Furniture Repair on 4-8-15 and were told that their first available date to even come look at the furniture was May 8th. That is 5 weeks after delivery just to look at it. After telling them that this would not be acceptable, they said they could bump us up to April 24-or 25 to inspect damages.
What they did not tell me and we found out later that if it requires parts that would require additional time to order (3-8 weeks) and then once we received the replacement part we could call back and schedule for installation (possibly another 4 weeks). For those of you keeping track this could take as many as 13 weeks for this to be resolved. As with many complaints that I am reading on La-Z-Boy, I am not the only one with these issues and this is just exceptionally poor customer service.

After 6 weeks I called and was told it would be in the following week and delivered the next week. It did not happen. On April 2 I again called and was told it would be in later in the month. On Good Friday as my guests arrived for the Easter holiday, I received a call that it was now in the warehouse. I needed the additional seating for my company. I contacted the store manager and was told the earliest delivery I could get was April 7 (which was past 8 weeks). I explained that to him with no satisfactory response. Being upset, I said "good bye" and hung up. The manager called me back and we scheduled delivery for April 9.
On April 7 I again called the manager and apologized for my previous attitude and asked for a refund of the delivery charge of $79.99 since the company didn't meet the 6 - 8 week period. I was refused because it's a third person delivery. Today, April 9, the chaise was delivered. On the paper I was asked to sign was a comment from the manager that I said “I'd not purchase anything from La-z-Boy again” (which I said). Also was a comment from him that I hung up on him. When we were through with that conversation, I said "good bye" and did hang up. I thought that was the correct procedure to end a call.

We purchased a 3-piece leather furniture set from La-Z-Boy in late 2011. The set included a sofa, a love seat, and a rocker-recliner. We had looked for a long time for just the right living room furniture and were very pleased when we found the set at La-Z-Boy. Because it was leather, its price was a little more than we wanted to spend, but with the salesman's assurance that the leather furniture would last forever we decided it would be a good investment. To make sure that we were totally covered, we even purchased the extended warranty. At that point, we were completely confident with our purchase. Our salesman even told us that we'd never have to buy living room furniture again. Having been long-time La-Z-Boy customers we had already gone through two fabric-covered rocker-recliners - we felt that we had made a good purchase.
We were completely pleased with our purchase until small pieces of leather began flaking off the rocker-recliner in early 2014. My wife called La-Z-Boy and was told that the manufacturer's 1-year warranty had expired and that the extended warranty did not cover the issue we were experiencing. It seems that if we had accidentally stained the leather, or cut/tore the leather through our own negligence, we would've been covered by the extended warranty, but a manufacturer's defect completely beyond our control simply was not covered. This just sounds totally backwards to me.
A few months later, and as more and more leather flaked off, I became completely dissatisfied with the rocker-recliner. I did a quick Internet search and found on the Consumer Affairs website several similar customer complaints regarding La-Z-Boy leather rocker-recliners. It seemed that they all involved the exact same style rocker-recliner that we had purchased, and they were all apparently purchased around the same time. I looked at the photos submitted by those customers and the damage to their chairs looked exactly like mine. I then knew that the problem with my chair was not an isolated incident.
I decided to contact La-Z-Boy again, even though they had already told us that there was nothing they could do to help us. We spoke with the store manager where we bought our furniture and he gave us a different customer service number to call. He also told us that we had purchased a bonded leather furniture set. This was news to us, as we were not told the material was bonded leather when we made the purchase. The manager had to explain to us exactly what bonded leather is. We thought we had purchased 100% real leather furniture. (Note: Our salesman told us that the seat and arm rest areas were leather, but that the remainder of the chair was imitation leather.)
I later called the customer service number provided by the store manager and was again told that there was nothing they could do to help us. It was suggested that if we had called earlier, it might have made a difference. Well, we contacted La-Z-Boy as soon as the problem became apparent and was denied any help. Since the leather is flaking off in several places, either the entire damaged panel would have to be replaced, or the entire chair would have to be replaced. I can't see how a day, or a week, or 3 or 4 months would make any difference. The resolution to the problem would still be the exact same.
Based on La-Z-Boy's response to my issue, I would definitely NOT recommend the purchase of any of their furniture that includes bonded leather, because they do not stand behind it. I feel that I purchased an expensive leather rocker-recliner ($800+) that has aged prematurely and become an eyesore due to a manufacturer's defect that La-Z-Boy won't acknowledge. It should also be noted that our sofa and love seat look practically brand new today, while the rocker-recliner looks like it should be trashed. I believe that a bad batch of bonded leather material is to blame. Oddly enough, the fabric-covered rocker-recliners we purchased in the past FAR outlasted the leather one which we were told would last forever.

I purchased a La-Z-Boy reclining sofa and love seat from a local retailer in November 2014 and the furniture was delivered on Dec. 18th. I started having issues with one of the recliners within the first few days. The first service call was Jan. 9th, at that time adjustments were made to the recliner. The recliner continues to be noisy and rickety. In addition to the recliner issues, the cushions are breaking down and the fabric is bunching up and loose on both the sofa and love seat. The back part of the cushion (headrest) is also breaking down. A second service call was made on March 21st. The service tech took pictures, flipped over the couch and looked at at the underside.
The information was sent to La-Z-Boy and the response I received was that the cord for the cushions had broken down and they would be ordering the parts and replacing the cord. I am being told the fabric bunching and being loose is considered comfort creasing and this is normal wear after 2 to 3 months. I am extremely unhappy with my purchase and expected my furniture to hold up and look new for much longer than the 2 to 3 months I have owned it. I find the response from the retailer and La-Z-Boy to be unacceptable. The furniture should be replaced, instead of repaired.

DO NOT waste your money on a La-Z-Boy product. We purchased a new home Sept of 14 and decided it was time to replace our aging couch. We shopped at all the standard places, but decided we wanted something that would last and that we would pay extra for quality. La-Z-Boy talks about how they are on the "high end" spectrum of furniture, their products are American made blah blah blah. 6 months after getting our couch, 6 out of the 7 pieces are ripping at the seams, NONE of the seams on the back portion line up from piece to piece. I realize it's a sectional, but still, it's a 5 thousand dollar sectional. Walk out of the LB store and go to Diamond furniture or Big Lots, you will get the same quality for thousands less. La-Z-Boy should be ashamed at selling such a low quality product at top dollar.

We had La-Z-Boy furniture for about 23 or 24 years. We shopped at La-Z-Boy many times, so our overall experience with them is fine. We purchased a new furniture because we needed the lift chairs for my wife for medical reasons. The quality of the furniture we got is fine - we pay for what we get.

After many phone calls with our local store and with corporate customer service, we were told that the pilling fabric on our brand new sofa is normal and that we should buy a shaver and shave the pilling fabric. Ten months and replacing the fabric, we are still dealing with the same problem. Customer Service said that's normal and we should just continue "shaving" our couch. Our new couch looks like it is 20 years old. Customer Service was of no help. In fact they were condescending and offered a ridiculous solution. I now see why there are so many negative reviews. I would have been better off going to the flea market to purchase a couch.

We really like their salesman. He was very good and gave us a lot of time and decorating tips which we certainly needed. We got quite a number of items and have been happy with all of them. The only issue that we've had, and I know we only used it a couple of weeks ago so we really haven't had a chance, is there are a couple of areas on the sectional that don't look like they are fully packed with fiber and they don't look quite right. Also the cushions are kind of seated a little bit. We've had La-Z-Boy products for decades but feel like there were a couple of areas in the sectional that could be improved in quality.

We purchased a La-Z-Boy because our furniture is old and we are redoing our room. However, I called almost a week ago because the furniture that we received wasn't made very well. The soonest they can get someone out to even look at it is May 1st. Three weeks is quite ridiculous to have someone even come out to see if they can fix it or even if they have to order me a new one or whatever. I was frustrated and expressed that to them and was told that's all they can do, which is unacceptable.

Our old furniture just wasn't working with the new house so we bought new furniture from La-Z-Boy. We used the decorator at the gallery and she was very helpful. We had some things in mind and she was able to show us a lot of things and understood what our taste was and helped us pick out pieces, which we feel are of good quality and reasonable cost. It took a few months to deliver them but the sales associate let us know the status of it. And then when it was delivered, she came out and helped us put it all together. The delivery team was very efficient too. A few pieces still haven't arrived yet, so that probably would be my only complaint.

I had La-Z-Boy furniture for just a couple of years. The product was expensive, it's more than what I wanted to pay but I felt the quality was worth it. And it did take a really long time to get the product, it took three months to get it. So, it was longer than what I was expecting. Also, the sales representative at the La-Z-Boy Gallery didn't seem as knowledgeable as I was hoping he would be. The manager was really good because I could overhear him talking to other customers about the different fabrics and what they mean and so I was listening in on that, expecting the salesperson to tell me the same thing but he didn't. But overall, it was a good experience - mainly because of the manager.

About four weeks after taking delivery of a rather high end, fully powered reclining chair, the foot rest would no longer close fully. It took about two weeks for a tech to visit and identify the problem. He took pictures and relayed to the factory what needed to be done to the seat to correct the problem. La-Z-Boy advised promptly that they would make a new seat for my chair to solve the problem. Delivery of a new seat took about eight weeks. The same tech returned to install the new seat into the chair. In about four weeks I am back on the phone with La-Z-Boy with the identical problem. A different tech comes out and goes through the same process as the first tech. Today, 3 weeks after the tech was here, I get a call and am told my three options: 1) Pick out a new chair, if it cost less than the original I am out the difference! 2) Pick out a new chair, if it costs more than the original I PAY the difference! 3) Order an identical chair at no cost.
I can understand paying the difference if I select a higher priced unit, but they keeping the difference if I select a lower price unit is just plain wrong no matter how the fine print is written. Naturally I told them to build an identical chair. Stupidity of course is doing the same thing over and over with the expectation of different results. I hope the new chair works. If not we will go through the same routine again. Regardless, it's the last piece of La-Z-Boy I will ever buy.

We were so happy to have beautiful, new, comfortable furniture... and just 2 years later the furniture frame is broken.... you cannot sit on the sofa.... and the 5 year warranty is worthless.
I spent a great deal of time researching furniture and I fell in love with the La-z-boy Collins collection. After raising 6 kids... 5 of which have "flown the coop"... it was time to splurge on a new set. I spent 6 months researching (and several trips to the Lazy Boy Store to sit on this sofa) until I was sure... I decided on the Collins collection... stylish and comfortable. We purchased in November of 2012 and we were very happy... at first. After just 2 short years... and very light use... (it is just my husband, myself and our 9 year old son at home)... the sofa has completely fallen apart. The wood frame supporting the back has broken and the arms are falling off. This is especially surprising since the furniture still looks brand new. The covers are in perfect condition. My surprise turned to total dismay as I found out that my 5 year warranty only covers the upholstery. The frame is not covered and my beautiful furniture is now unusable.
La-z-boy did send me new wood frame pieces and springs... and we can deconstruct the piece... yes I do mean deconstruct... remove the fabric... take apart the back and replace the wooden supports and springs... or we can "hire" La-z Boy to come and fix the sofa. I asked the representative (who was very kind) what she would do. She told me to weigh the option because the repair could be close to the cost of a new sofa. AARGHHH!!! After much discussion, the customer service rep is going to try and mitigate the repair charge but I will have to pay a minimum of $219 before they will look at the sofa. I am waiting to hear from La-z-Boy. They have sent the new parts... I have to pre-pay for the repair... not certain where this will go.

I bought a new Lazy Boy Spa (Soul Mate) in Dec 2013. November 2014 I reported that it was not working. Now, March 24, 2015 (approaching 4 months), it is still not working! As a busy executive, I will give you the details later, but by now you should understand that your company has not stood by its warranty and something should be done about this at the executive level. The Spa was bought at Spa Man Spa, 21257 N. Black Canyon Hwy Phoenix, AZ 85027 in Phoenix, AZ. Their phone number is 602-998-7727. They had previously replaced a noisy pump in 2013. Then on Nov 28, 2013 I emailed them (because I had not gotten a response from a phone call). I indicated in the email that I only had cold water. They responded immediately that I should call the company that was servicing the warranty, Spa Tech 602-225-0004.
Spa Tech scheduled a service call and diagnosed the problem as a pump failure. While they were here they tried to get the serial number of the spa. They even called the manufacturer to find where it might be. They assured us that everything would be handled at their office, after all, I had previously had a pump replaced under warranty. Having had one pump replaced under warranty, I understood that it would be another 2 or 3 weeks. More than 3 weeks had gone by, so I called Spa Tech. They were having trouble locating the serial number after a few calls, we all had the same serial number 2010-090337. That should be the end of it. Time went by and I called La-z-Boy Headquarters could not recognize the serial number and Spa Man Spa was going to their supplier for their invoice for the serial number.
I could not believe what I was hearing and began to get suspicious that my spa was not an official La-Z-Boy Spa or was stolen goods. This is when I went directly to the online La-Z-Boy help. I entered my problem. After several days I received an email that the problem was resolved. Now, it has been 3 weeks and I have no working spa. Last thing I heard from Spa Tech was that they were waiting for a pump. My last email to Spa Man Spa has not been returned!
Thank you for taking the time to submit your review. We are very sorry to hear about your experience. We will be sure to get your information with the correct contact to assist you with your spa.

This is my third La-Z-Boy chair over the last 15 years. The chair that I had from them before is a few years old and it's in fairly good condition but I didn't buy one that was roomy enough. It was a little bit tight sitting in it and the feet was too low to the floor. I have trouble with my knee joints trying to get back up on the chair and I was thinking about a lift chair.
So I went to see what they had and what the prices were. The sales representative at the La-Z-Boy gallery was very helpful. My son and his wife were with me and we had just started looking at a couple of chairs, and he came over right away to help me pick out what I was looking for and to check the prices. He stayed with me the whole time until I made a decision. This led me to my recently purchased power recliner. Their delivery team brought in the chair and set it up and got it all ready to go. They were polite and I didn't have any problems or complaints with them.
The furniture is in excellent quality. It's not a lift chair but it's higher from the floor than my other chair. It's not quite as expensive as that one that lifted me up. But it's higher from the floor and I can get up easier. It has the remote control for lowering and raising the footrest and back. That's everything that I needed and it was on sale. La-Z-Boy had what I was looking for. They had prices that were a little bit better for me. And with the quality of the product and the quickness of delivery, I've got satisfaction with the chair.

Even gave them an extra tip because they were so helpful, but that is where the good part of this review ends. Like so many of the reviews on this site, we found problems with the sectional after the delivery men left. There was an indention or scratch on one of the wood pieces and the back of the sectional is put together with cardboard that was bent and poking out in a weird angle. It looks horrible and since you can see the back of the sectional it doesn't work for us. We called several times for someone to come out and look at it and did not get a response for quite sometime. Finally, we were told that someone would come out and of course they didn't show up.
After several more repeated calls to get them out, La-Z-Boy said that our apt was scheduled for the next week. This was not the case, but we're desperate to get someone out we just let it go. They finally did come out and stated that they would have to get parts for both of our items and it would take another 3-4 weeks. It has been well over that time and not once have we ever been contacted by La-Z-Boy to let us know about a delay. We have called them several times again and still nothing has been done. Several thousands of dollars were spent on this sectional because we thought we were going to get good quality furniture. How wrong we were.
La-Z-Boy is not the quality furniture store it use to be and I will let everyone I know be aware of this. We have already made a complaint on the BBB and will continue to complain until we are satisfied that this type of experience is a thing of the past for future shoppers of La-Z-Boy. Will provide info later if needed as I do not have it all handy at the moment.

We ordered a double recliner sofa from La-Z-Boy which was supposed to come with several throw pillows. The pillows did not arrive with the sofa. In addition, we ordered a sleeper in cream color. It arrived in the wrong color, a darker brown. We had called the manager who was our salesman in Setauket, NY. He said he would research this and call us back. He never did!
Thank you.

Excellent power recliner from La-Z-Boy with a reasonable cost. I really like it. It was scheduled the same time we purchased it and was delivered by very professional people.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us, Lawrence! We're happy to hear everything went so smoothly and that you found the perfect power recliner. Comfort at the touch of a button; doesn't get much better than that! Thanks for choosing La-Z-Boy, and enjoy living life comfortably!

After many weeks (eight, I believe) Our new sectional was ready for delivery. After it was set up, we noticed that the backs were not in perfect alignment, and one gap was far larger than the others (over 2 inches wide). Our unit free stands, not against a wall, so you really see the back. We contacted La-Z-Boy, and they arranged for someone to examine this (although the soonest appointment was a couple weeks out). The man who came was able to make the gap slightly less, but still far from what we hoped for quality furniture. In the future, I am not sure I would pay the substantial premium for La-Z-Boy. I am sure other brands would go together at least as well (our last sectional was better fitted when removed after 10+ years of service). In fairness, the unit is quite comfortable to sit on.

Bought a $2,068 queen sleep sofa on 04/05//14 with a delivery date of July. When sofa was delivered 07/14 the sofa cushion were shaped uneven, the back side is uneven with a downward slant facing the sofa to my right. The throw pillows made for the sofa have pointed edges that look like ears. The seating cushions are uneven, sticking out uneven. We had it sent back to the manufacturer to fix. It was returned to us with minor changes but still out of shape. We were told it was built per specifications. Nothing else to change. SPECIFICATIONS??? La-Z-Boy needs to focus on Quality work. I guess quality is not important. Poor workmanship.

Bought a new power recliner from Lake Zurich IL La-Z-Boy showroom. Had La-Z-Boy's chairs for 40 years, loved them until now. They have a 3 day exchange program, I was there the 4th day due to traveling this week on business. The chair still has the tag on it. Got it delivered, it was very uncomfortable, real bad if it's not reclined. Talked to my sales person **, on the phone, she said, "Come in and we will do the paper work and pick out a different chair," but she said I had to come when the mgr was there. I showed up, the mgr ** said it's one day late, and will have to accept a 30% restocking charge, which I was never in person about - it was a $1500 chair. For one day, they will lose a loyal customer of 40 years. Not going to lose $400. Looking at their ratings, out of 5 stars, they only get one star. How does a company like that stay in business. I will never buy another La-Z-Boy product again.

I recently purchased a power recliner from La-Z-Boy. Very pleased with its quality and the mechanisms! The sales rep who waited on me knew her merchandise very well and let me spend several days in selecting the one that I really wanted. Scheduling the delivery was also a very positive experience because the associate called me the day before and the morning of the delivery. The delivery guys assembled everything well within 15-20 minutes. They made me sit down and try the recliner before they left.
There's only one problem - it may not be a problem with the company - but I was led to believe that at least the lift mechanism in the chair would be under the expense that Medicare would pay. I'm still not sure if they will pay it or not. It has been really difficult to find out, first of all, if they really would pay and if they would, what I need to do or provide for them to pay for it. So that was in the way. Nevertheless, after everything, I'm glad with this purchase. It's not the company's fault. They're certainly not responsible for securing Medicare payment.
Daniel, thank you taking the time to submit your review and share your experience with us!! We are thrilled to hear that you found the perfect recliner to meet all of your needs, and that our sales rep did such a great job assisting you. We hope you are able to work everything out with your medicare concerns. None the less, thank you for choosing La-Z-Boy, and enjoy living life comfortably!

We have had La-Z-Boys as long as I can remember. I used to think they stood by their quality of their furniture. About two yrs ago I bought 2 new La-Z-Boy chairs, a leather one and a fabric one. Now the fabric on the arm is about to fall off. I called up to see about getting it fixed. They wanted to charge me an arm and a leg for someone to come out and fix it. I will not buy again.

Lazboy finally came out and replaced the broken console with a new one. It took an extremely long time and I had the worst experience with their customer service department ever! And their customer service manager really needs to learn how to spell correctly. How unprofessional is it if the correspondence you receive is so littered with misspellings and bad grammar that you can hardly make out what they are trying to say. We live in an age of computers and spell check!

We finally got our sectional after like 9 weeks of waiting and when the techs are done installing it they quickly exit saying all is well. Well... all is not that well. I found that the handle had broken on the powered console and after closer inspection the cross brace in the bottom was also broken. I figured they dropped it and covered it up by hightailing it out of there quickly after installation. I contacted customer service and was told that they 'might' replace the whole console. Might? I would say that after spending 5G on a sectional that they make good on their quality. I am still waiting for someone to get back to me. Love the rest of the couch, but this type of customer service is not a good indicator of "World class service!"

Ordered a power reclining sofa on January 3, 2015. Was told it could be 6-8 weeks for delivery, but most happen in 4-6. The salesman said he would check the status at 4 weeks and give us an update. Four weeks came and went. My wife had to call for an update. To date (19 March) we have not received an update unless we call and ask.
The ship date has changed twice with no communication to us unless we call, and less than satisfactory explanations when we do get our salesman on the phone. I actually had the salesman hang up on me on March 7th, because someone came into the store and he needed to help them (from my side of the conversation, he had my money and needed to go get someone else's...my lack of a sofa was not his problem). I immediately called back to speak to the store manager and was told that he was busy, but if I left a voice mail he would return my call. I did leave a voice mail and 12 days later I'm still waiting for the call.
We love the La-Z-Boy products but the customer service at the Franklin, TN store (salesman - **; Manager - **) has certainly made us second guess future purchases of La-Z-Boy products. We are now looking at 3 months for potential shipping of our sofa and have been given no alternative options other than wait!!! I am not confident that we will get a sofa in the first quarter of 2015, and I am certain that any information I get along the way will come from me asking questions. I have sold my current sofa and will have to give it up to its new owner soon. Looks like I'll be sitting in a straight chair while waiting on my sofa.

I made a transaction in person at the La-Z-Boy Furniture Gallery in Troy, Michigan on August 19, 2014 for the purchase of a sectional sofa with three motorized recliners. The total price of this sectional sofa was $6,262.40. This amount reflects the sale price. The original price of the sofa was $8,494.40. I paid a deposit of $1,878.72 on August 19, 2014 and then I was required to pay the balance owing of $4,383.68 in person in the store before the sofa would be scheduled for delivery. The sofa was delivered to me the first week of October 2014.
Two weeks after receiving the sofa one of the motorized recliners started to malfunction. I called the store where I purchased the sofa and they referred me to Customer Care, which is their customer service department. I had to schedule an appointment for someone to come out to look at the malfunctioning recliner. I had to wait over two weeks for this appointment. The technician came out on November 7, 2014. He discovered that there was indeed a damaged part under the recliner, he took a few photos and said he would recommend a replacement recliner be made.
At the time of this service call, I expressed my concern with how loose the fabric was on the sofa and the creases in the fabric. He said that was normal for custom ordered furniture. He said I would have to smooth the fabric on the cushions each time after they were sat on. He then proceeded to tell me that we should sit around on all of the sofa cushions regularly since the cushions would compress by 30% in the first year and it would not look good if we sat in the same areas all of the time. I was not happy with this information, considering I ordered recliners to be the chairs that would primarily be used. I know a few people who have La-Z-Boy recliners and the cushions look and feel the same after fifteen years as they did the day they were brand new.
A few weeks later it became evident that this sofa I had just purchased for over $6,000.00 was nowhere near the quality and value of a $6,000.00 sofa. I know what a sofa for $6,000.00 should look and feel like. I examined the sofa underneath and was shocked to see the thin cheap foam that was exposed and the press board that was used for construction. These are not materials that are used for high-end furniture that should last for years and years. With very minimum use the cushions started to compress, you could feel the framing underneath some of the cushions, the fabric has become more loose with more creases and wrinkles.
Moving on the sofa makes creaking sounds and it started to become more uncomfortable to sit on to the point of causing me back pain. I could no longer sit on this sofa for more than a few minutes without having back stiffness and pain. It is uneven and the cushions do not line up. Besides the fabric being loose and creased, it also leaves fibers on our clothing. One of the other motorized recliners started to sound and move like it was beginning to break down. My new sofa looks like it is five years old. Family and friends have agreed that it looks like something purchased at a discount store or at Salvation Army.
I went to the store at the end of November and spoke with one of the managers about my dissatisfaction and disappointment. The manager called Customer Care while I was there and told me they would be calling me back. She said they had to have someone come out to look at it. On December 10, 2014 a technician came to my home, I pointed out all of my concerns and made clear my dissatisfaction. He didn't seem interested in my concerns, he did not take any photos and he said he would report my concerns and dissatisfaction to Customer Care. He even sat on an area where you could feel the framing underneath and he said that you would feel that on the recliners, which is beyond unacceptable to me.
On December 15, 2014 I went back to the store and told them I didn't hear back from anyone and that I wanted to return the sofa. The manager, **, didn't seem interested in what I had to say. She acted like she wanted to get me out of the store as fast as she could. She said they want their customers happy and that she would make a phone call to management and call me back in two days. I told her I had photos of the sofa and she asked me to send them to her, which I did. I never heard back from her or Customer Care.
I went back to the store on December 19, 2014 and spoke with the manager that I had spoken with at the end of November. She said that yes she did see the photos I had e-mailed to ** and that they were forwarded to Customer Care. She called Customer Care while I waited. She agreed that the sofa was not acceptable and that she would call me back later that day or by the next day with an answer as to what they were going to do. I told her that I was not going to keep furniture that looks and feels like it is five years old. She was agitated that she had to deal with my dissatisfaction.
As of today, I have not heard anything from La-Z-Boy regarding my visits to the managers of the store or to my e-mail with the photos. On December 22, 2014 the delivery men brought the replacement recliner only to discover that it was not a motorized recliner. It has been a couple of months and no one has called acknowledging this error. And not to mention that for two months I could not use the sofa with recliner as intended when I made the purchase. The only reason I accepted the wrong and less costly recliner is because the broken one was useless and I thought it would be a good idea for them to have a working recliner if they intended to resell it. This sofa has been available for return to them whenever they wish to pick it up, they have known about my dissatisfaction and desire to return the sofa for months, but I am being totally ignored by La-Z-Boy with the hope that I will just go away.
Seeing how they do business and seeing how they were choosing to ignore my request for a refund, I had no other choice but to file a dispute regarding the charges made to my credit card. But of course, La-Z-Boy would not work with them in any way so my dispute was not honored. After spending hours, and hours and hours and hours reading hundreds and hundreds of complaints on the La-Z-Boy consumers affair website https://www.consumeraffairs.com/furniture/lazboy.html?page=4 I am finding it so heartbreaking and sad to read how deplorable La-Z-Boy is treating their customers and the inferior furniture they are selling, it is despicable.
Every dissatisfied customer has vowed to never buy from La-Z-Boy again. They are telling everyone they know to stay away from La-Z-Boy and they are going on social media to inform people to never purchase anything from this company. This company that once built high-end furniture is now building junk and charging high-end prices for it.
I have purchased a lot of custom made furniture over the last twenty-five years and I have never encountered such poor materials, manufacturing or customer service. The inferior materials and workmanship are disgraceful. Every complaint follows the same basic steps. La-Z-Boy makes claims about how well made the furniture is. They brag about their warranties. They get the sale and they get your money. If you are not happy they will give you the run around, pass the buck, make several attempts to repair unrepairable furniture, not replace new furniture that is delivered damaged or broken and ignore you until you go away. They make every excuse and reason not to honor their commitment to quality furniture and excellent service.
A few examples: People have been told by La-Z-Boy that they are sitting on the furniture wrong, that the reason their leather is fading and cracking after a few months is because of the oils on their skin, or that the piling on the fabric is normal after a few months and that the customer should use a sweater shaver on their furniture. I have never heard of such nonsense. The complaints go on and on and on. I am not going to accept furniture that is nowhere near the value of what I paid. This sofa is in my main living area and for me or anyone not to be able to sit on it is totally unacceptable, not to mention how unsightly it looks.
There is a statement they have printed on their brochures about commitment to comfort and quality furniture to be enjoyed for years to come. I believe it implies a warranty of merchantability. I trusted La-Z-Boy. I trusted that they were the same company they were years ago that built high end furniture that was comfortable and lasted for years and years. If I would have read the customer reviews before trusting that they were still a reputable company, I would never have made this purchase. For a company claiming it is the same as it was years ago, and getting sales based on their previous reputation is deceitful and probably actionable.
There is a law that is in place in Michigan protecting buyers from sellers taking advantage of them. This law is Implied Warranty of Merchantability. I am entitled to get my money's worth or I have the right to return it for a full refund if the product does not meet my expectations and the manufacturer's claims. Last week, I made another attempt to get this resolved by going into the store where my purchase was made, the manager ** called Customer Care and was told that I would have to take legal action... I asked "Does that mean I should sue La-Z-Boy" and she said "Yes, that is what Corporate has responded with." Wow! Really??? Great customer satisfaction La-Z-Boy! I have filed a complaint with the BBB (Better Business Bureau).

We purchased two of these power recliners with custom leather. We waited the normal 10-12 weeks and when the chairs came, I was so excited! After a month or so of sitting in these chairs, the lumbar support is poking through the back and there is no way to get rid of it. We had customer service come out about 2 weeks ago and he could only add additional padding to the area, which has already moved and the lumbar system in poking through again! I have also noticed that the headrest and backrest is losing its foam padding and there are huge divots in the headrest.
It also feels that the salesperson sold us recliners that are too large for us, as we can barely touch the floor when the footrest is lower. She said, "It is perfect size for you two." Yeah RIGHT! She just wanted a big sale! What happened to La-Z-Boy products? They used to be the bomb... Now customer service sucks and so does the product! Will continue to work with them to try to get this resolved!

Thinking that La-z-boy was the top of the line, on 10/16/13 I regretfully purchased a La-z-Boy Sofa with 2 recliners and a La-z-Boy loveseat with 2 recliners. It took approximately two weeks for the seat on the sofa to sink and to feel as if you are sitting on one of the boards. As a result, I have to use a pillow on the seat. The loveseat isn't much better but to be fair, it did take a few weeks longer to sink and not quite as bad as the sofa. I have a medical problem and needed firm support when sitting. My old sofa had become too soft. So I spent three thousand dollars to purchase what I already had - a soft sofa. Lesson well learned. The next time, I will do my homework when making a large purchase.
