La-z-boy Canterbury

Relax in traditional La-Z-Boy comfort in the attractive Canterbury.

A suite which will look right at home in a variety of living spaces, Canterbury offers a fresh, contemporary vibe in textured Altara fabric, giving a suede-effect feel. Take your pick from a power recliner, manual latch recliner or a static model. Canterbury is available as a three piece suite with matching footstool.

La-Z-Boy Incorporated, which has its international headquarters in Monroe, Michigan, USA, has a strong history for producing comfortable and quality products and is a brand that is known throughout the globe.

The furniture company that would later be known as La-Z-Boy was founded in 1927 by American cousins, Edward M Knabusch and Edwin J Shoemaker, who invented the first recliner in 1928. A comfortable concept, the folding wood-slat porch chair followed the contour of a person’s body, both sitting and leaning back. Using orange crates to mock-up and refine their idea, the partners invented the reclining mechanism that would sweep the world off its feet.

La-Z-Boy’s handle recline mechanism allows a unique relaxation experience.  The backrest and footrest work totally independently to allow a personalised reclining position.  A ratchet mechanism allows the user to comfortably slide the seat forward while the back rest moves in harmony with the body, meaning the lumbar region is fully supported at all times.  The three-position handle can then be utilised to select a comfortable footrest angle.
