Unique Features of the Headrest and Lumbar Upgrade
1. Independent Control for Custom Comfort
The standout feature of La-Z-Boy’s power recliners is their ability to adjust the headrest and lumbar support independently. Unlike traditional recliners, which rely on manual handles, these power recliners allow you to fine-tune your seating position to suit your exact comfort needs.
Whether you want more neck support while watching TV or increased lumbar support while reading, the ability to control both settings independently ensures a truly tailored experience.
2. Adjustable Headrest
The adjustable headrest tilts between 0 and 55 degrees, helping you maintain a comfortable line of sight without straining your neck.
This feature is especially beneficial for those who spend long hours relaxing in their recliner. Instead of constantly shifting your position to view the screen or read comfortably, you can adjust the headrest to cradle your head at the perfect angle.
Cliff says, “The adjustable headrest lets you stay reclined without needing to hold your head up. It’s one of those small luxuries that makes a big difference over time.”
Whether you’re reclining to nap or simply relaxing after work, the headrest supports your neck and reduces muscle fatigue.
3. Lumbar Support
The lumbar support feature pushes the lower back forward up to 3.5 inches, offering precise lower-back relief. This customizable support is ideal for individuals experiencing chronic back pain or discomfort from prolonged sitting.
The adjustable lumbar panel moulds to the natural curve of your spine, relieving pressure points and improving posture. For anyone who struggles with discomfort in traditional recliners, this feature makes all the difference.
In addition to comfort, this targeted support can help reduce long-term back strain, making it particularly useful for individuals with active lifestyles or demanding work routines.
4. Safety Return Mechanism
One often-overlooked benefit of La-Z-Boy’s headrest upgrade is its safety return mechanism. If there’s an interruption in power—like a sudden outage—the headrest smoothly returns to its upright position using spring-loaded technology.
This prevents the risk of pinching or damaging the mechanism, ensuring long-term durability. If you’re interested in learning more about some other Safety features in our La-Z-Boy Furniture, take a look at this article.
5. Control Panel & Wireless Remote
The built-in control panel is intuitive and easy to use, giving you the ability to adjust your recliner effortlessly with the push of a button. For added convenience, you can upgrade to a wireless remote, which allows you to control your recliner from anywhere in the room.
This feature is perfect for those who want to experience luxury without getting up to make adjustments. If you’re interested in learning more about How to Use La-Z-Boy’s Wireless Remotes and Control Panels, take a look at this article.
La-Z-Boy’s power recliners with headrests and lumbar support are available in three distinct styles, each catering to different preferences and space requirements.
1. Rocking Recliners
Combining the soothing motion of a rocker with power reclining capabilities, La-Z-Boy’s Rocking Recliners are perfect for multi-purpose comfort.
Rocking Recliners offer a relaxing back-and-forth motion, making them ideal for calming infants, napping, or simply unwinding after a long day. The addition of the headrest and lumbar upgrade takes this classic comfort to the next level, providing support exactly where you need it.
2. Wall Recliners
Wall Recliners are a space-saving solution, designed to recline fully while positioned just inches from the wall. This makes them a popular choice for apartments, condos, or small living rooms.
Despite their compact footprint, these recliners offer the same luxurious comfort as larger models.
With the headrest and lumbar upgrade, Wall Recliners allow you to enjoy maximum comfort without sacrificing precious space in your home.
3. Power Lift Recliners
Power Lift Recliners are designed with functionality in mind. Featuring a motorized lifting mechanism, these recliners assist users with sitting down and standing up effortlessly. They are particularly beneficial for individuals with mobility challenges or recovering from injuries.
The headrest and lumbar upgrade further enhances their functionality, making them ideal for anyone seeking extra support. Whether it’s improving posture or relieving back pain, Power Lift Recliners offer both comfort and convenience.

Power recliners with headrest and lumbar support provide superior customized comfort, making them ideal for those seeking added relaxation and support, especially individuals with back pain or injuries.
If lumbar support isn’t a priority, La-Z-Boy also offers headrest-only options at about half the cost of the full upgrade. Both options reflect La-Z-Boy’s higher price point due to premium materials and long-lasting construction, ensuring durability and reducing future repair costs.
For those concerned about power cords, La-Z-Boy offers a cordless battery pack upgrade for flexible placement. “Some people may not want their recliner tethered to a wall, especially if outlets aren’t ideally located,” explains Cliff.
