When a client comes in looking for a product that prioritizes comfort, without hesitation, Racha recommends the Greyson collection. She says that “the Greyson is the most top-of-the-line, luxurious comfort that we offer at La-Z-Boy”. 

If you are seeking a recliner, loveseat, or sofa that provides you relief at the end of a long day, you may find exactly what you are looking for in the Greyson.

About the Greyson Furniture Family

Products from the Greyson collection offer an ultra-comfortable place to sit back and recline. 

With deep and wide bucket seats, Racha says sitting in a Greyson product is comparable to visiting a luxurious cinema. The chaise seat and leg rest create a continuous zone of rest and relaxation in the reclined position.

Padded pillow top arms and a tall back only enhance the pleasure of the Greyson. Further, Racha says that the Greyson products have built-in lumbar support to put your lower back at ease.

When it comes to style, Racha warns clients that they will either love or hate the Greyson. Putting comfort first, the Greyson may appear big and bulky in contrast to a sleek and minimalist interior design. With that being said, “the comfort is truly like nothing else!”

Generally speaking, Racha describes the size of the Greyson products as “big and bulky” compared to some of La-Z-Boy’s more sleek models. 

The plush cushions and padded arms enhance the overall comfort of the chair, but it also takes up a considerable amount of space. With this, any of the Greyson products will require a fair bit of room to fit seamlessly with your current furniture arrangement.

In addition to fitting in your space, it is important that the Greyson recliner, loveseat, or sofa, is the right size for you. The tall back and bucket seats featured in the Greyson collection are best suited for taller individuals who are 5’10” and up. 

Nevertheless, Racha says that a smaller individual can still find comfort in the Greyson products as the large bucket seats can be a great place to curl up in rather than recline.

While your height can be a considerable factor, it is important to note that height guidelines are NOT set in stone. The way you sit in a furniture item can drastically affect how someone might find a seat comfortable.

Ultimately, we recommend always coming in for a sit test to see if you think the Greyson is comfortable for your body type. To learn more, take a look at How to Find a Recliner That is The Best Fit For You.

The Greyson is available as a Rocking Recliner, a Wall Recliner, a Reclining Loveseat, and a Reclining Sofa.

Greyson Furniture Family Options & Upgrades

Compared to other La-Z-Boy furniture families, Greyson has plenty of customization options to choose from. Keep in mind that the cost of the Greyson furniture will increase with your selection of options and upgrades.  

Upholstery Cover Options

When selecting the fabric or leather for your Greyson furniture, the cost will vary based on the grade you choose. Select fabrics will not affect the starting price of your furniture, but anything beyond that will.

This includes select leather and anything inside our leather selections at La-Z-Boy.

For a comprehensive understanding of La-Z-Boy's upholstery grades, check out this article. 

*Please note that this article's leather or fabric options may be discontinued or unavailable without prior notice. We recommend contacting your local Ottawa, Gatineau or Kingston La-Z-Boy store by phone or in-person to confirm availability. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by any changes to our upholstery selection.

Alongside our extensive range of covers, the Greyson is also available in specialty fabrics and leathers that offer unique features and benefits…

• Stain Resistant: Innovative iClean Technology protects the surface of the leather to repel spills before they turn into stains.
• Crypton Leather: Similar to high-performance fabrics at La-Z-Boy, our Crypton leathers repel dust, dirt and stains. It also protects against harmful UV damage and replenishes natural oils.
• Antimicrobial Leather : Antimicrobial properties surround each fibre to protect against mould, mildew and odour-causing bacteria.
• Performance: Superior stain and fade resistance properties make leathers easy to clean and incredibly durable.

Cushion Upgrade

At an additional cost, Greyson cushions can also be upgraded to include firmer cushioning, meaning over time, your furniture will remember your unique figure and enhance the comfort of your furniture. This could be a great option for people with mobility issues, allowing you to get in and out of your furniture more comfortably. 

Handle Options (Recliners)

To add more style to your La-Z-Boy manual recliner, you have the option to customize the length and material of the convenient reclining handle.

At an extra cost, you can opt to elongate the handle if you find it too short for your comfort. Additionally, you can choose from a variety of materials for the handle, including wooden, brushed nickel, or matte black. The chrome handle can also be elongated, matching the wooden one in size.

What’s more, for all left-handed users, you can change your handle from the standard right side to the left. This also comes at an additional cost.

Optional Swivel Base

If you're interested, the Greyson rocking recliner is available with a swivel base for an extra cost. La-Z-Boy's swivel bases provide a 360-degree rotation, allowing you to easily turn and face any direction.

You can also upgrade your swivel base into a power swivel recliner, which can swivel at the touch of a button. The power swivel base, however, only rotates 165 degrees to prevent the power cord from getting tangled within the furniture frame.

To learn more about our power swivel options, check out our review of our Swivel Power Recliners.

Power Upgrade with Adjustable Headrest & Lumbar Support

You can upgrade the Greyson Recliner, Loveseat and Sofa to power. 

Unlike manual furniture that uses a handle or latch, power recliners come with a control panel or a wireless remote for easy reclining at the touch of a button. You can also adjust the headrest support with this convenient feature.

The adjustable headrest allows you to move the head of the recliner from 0-55 degrees, giving you more range of motion with your reclining positions.

You can also control the lower lumbar area of your recliner with the wireless remote. In this case, the lumbar support can expand 3 inches out or deflate to perfectly match the unique curvature of your lumbar spine.

What’s more, the recliners have USB ports next to the control panels to charge your electronic devices and two memory settings that allow you to save any of your favourite relaxing positions. This way, you can easily recline back to the position you favour quickly and accurately.

If you need help with learning about the controls, check out La-Z-Boy Power Furniture: How to Use the Control Panel & Remote. 

All power upgrades can be cordless, thanks to our rechargeable battery pack. With this, you can place your power recliners anywhere without worrying about plugging them into an electrical outlet.

Console Upgrade (Loveseat)

The Greyson Loveseat has the option to include a console in the middle of the seat. This handy center console adds extra storage. 

Cup holders are also included, meaning you can sit back and relax without getting up to grab a drink. Further, the console offers an interior electronic charging input instead of the ports outside the loveseat, as well as a light-up function, so you can easily see your drinks in the dark.

If the console is something that interests you, you can also add Power with Headrest and Lumbar upgrades to enhance your Greyson Loveseat into a truly comfortable experience.

Greyson Furniture Family Cost

In terms of cost, the Greyson furniture products fall within the mid-price range at La-Z-Boy.

While the cost of the Greyson furniture is considered quite standard at La-Z-Boy, it is important to note that La-Z-Boy furniture is considered more expensive on the market. This cost is reflected in the quality of materials and craftsmanship of our products. With this, the investment tends to be worthwhile if you are looking for long-lasting furniture.
