About the Clayton Gold Lift Recliner
The stylish Clayton Lift Power Recliner is a staple at La-Z-Boy. It is jam-packed with features that offer comfort, relaxation, and convenience.
The one-piece seat and back move together, eliminating gaps and providing full-body support in all reclined positions. The Clayton can lift from a reclining position to a fully standing position at just the touch of a button.
La-Z-Boy offers four series of power lift chairs. The Clayton is part of the Gold series of La-Z-Boy lift chairs, which means it has the capabilities of a regular lift recliner, with some bonus features.
For example, this La-Z-Boy lift recliner is currently the only product on our floor to feature Heat & Massage. The Heat & Massage function features a 3-setting heat feature in the back and seat regions of the chair.
Additionally, choose from 6-motor vibration massage which powers 3 alternate massage modes: constant, wave, and pulse. Customize your massage by adjusting the momentum to your preferred speed.
To learn more, take a look at the article about the Heat & Massage Upgrade at La-Z-Boy.
The Clayton recliner needs to be placed 13.5 inches from the wall to access an AC outlet, powering its ergonomic wired controller, which tucks into a side pocket when not in use. In case of power failure, a backup system uses two 9V batteries.
Designed for durability, the Clayton supports up to 500 pounds and is ETL safety-certified, featuring an auto-stop legrest for added safety, protecting both the chair and pets.
When it comes to size and dimensions, the Clayton Lift Power Recliner is considered one of our larger lift recliners at La-Z-Boy.
The Clayton is best suited for someone who is extra tall at a height of 6’3” and up.
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.
This is why we highly recommend coming in-store and taking a sit test to determine if the Clayton is right for your unique body type. To learn more, take a look at our article How to Find a Recliner That is The Best Fit For You.

Is the Clayton Lift Recliner Right for You?
There is no doubt that the Clayton Lift Power Recliner is a comfortable piece of furniture, but it may not be right for everyone.
With this being said, the Clayton Lift Recliner does not reach the zero gravity position, only the Platinum Lift Chairs have this feature. In turn, the Clayton might not be the right investment for someone who is seeking the benefits of the zero gravity position.
Given the large dimensions of the Clayton, this lift recliner is ideal for a larger person, as it is between the height of 6’3” and up.No need to squeeze into a small recliner, the Clayton provides ample room for relaxation.
If you are looking for a large recliner but the Clayton is not the ideal choice for you, check out a list of the Best La-Z-Boy Recliners for Tall People.
Finally, as a lift chair with heat and massage features, the Clayton is great for someone who experiences mobility issues or is recovering from an injury.
The lift feature can allow you to ease in and out of comfortable positions safely without straining your muscles or causing tension. Moreover, heat and massage can be very beneficial for aching injuries and may lead to a quicker recovery.
