anyone own lazboy rocker/recliner?

[z0mb13]

a new lazyboy store just opened in my area.

They are having an opening sale, and this caught my eye for $399 with no sales tax, regular price is 600 ish.

Are they worth it? I tried sitting on it and it was quite comfortable.

I 've had this one The Atlas for about 8 years and I love it. The quality of authentic LAZ-Y-BOY is unequal. The mechanism is garanteed for life and they are quite comfortable. If you're going to spring for one .throw in a few extra bucks and get the big one like the Atlas. The extra padding and large arms make it much more comfortable. I didn't get the same cloth or color as this one but a dark green cordouroy

For $399.00, I would just go for it.

For $399.00, I would just go for it.

That would be like spending $6 on a bottle of swill instead of spending $2 more for something half-decent. I would go see the saleman and see if you can strike up a deal. Furniture is very negotiable and if it's a new store opening they will be bending over backwards to snag new customers.
If you get a non leather one....spring for the scothgaurd treatment and your lazyboy will stay good looking for years. Mine looks quite new after all these years

I tried the other kinds at the store, and I really dont need a bigger one. This one is perfect since my built is not that big.. Also I dont want to get a big one since I probably be moving a lot, it will be a major PITA to carry heavy furniture

I will probably try to get free delivery as well

Or save $50.00+ dollars and buy a $6.00 can of Scotchguard at Home Depot.

I used to "Scotchguard" furniture at Ethan Allen, and that is all that is done......except the can is a little bigger to cover a lot more surface area in one pass.

Get it! I fall asleep on my Uncle's La-z-boy every time I visit him. My ass has never felt anything more comfortable!

Yep, it is this stuff:

Ethan Allen charged $100.00 to it's customers for this service. It took me all of two minutes to spray a large sofa down, and let it dry for around 24 hours (depending on humidity levels). A chair would take under a minute.

With the smaller can, you will be looking at maybe three minutes.

will this stuff change the feel of the upholstery?

 

[UsandThem]

No, not at all once it dries. You can't tell the difference.

Trust me, as petty, picky, rich, and anal as Ethan Allen customers are, I never got one complaint.

It is really good stuff and will keep stains from bonding with your fabric.

The only downside to it is paying a lot of money for something that costs next to nothing to do yourself.....in about three minutes.

do I have to be outdoors to do this? or can I do it inside?

You can do it inside with good airflow, but it wouldn't hurt if you could do it in a garage with some fans blowing on it.

The stuff does stink when it is first sprayed. It won't hurt anything like your carpet, but it does smell.
