About the Laurel Furniture Family
As previously mentioned, the Laurel furniture family is sophisticated, yet relaxed.
This stationary furniture family has an understated look that complements a laid-back lifestyle. Simple elements like petite rolled arms, welt trim, decorative wood legs, and button detail on the back make this roomy piece a welcome addition to a living room, den, or nursery.
Racha also mentions that the Laurel is part of the 2-seater sofa collection at La-Z-Boy. A 2-seater sofa is no different from a regular sofa other than the fact that it features two long seat cushions instead of three shorter seat cushions.
As stationary furniture, the Laurel family is manufactured with premier construction. Premier furniture takes La-Z-Boy construction to the next level, including quality-crafted frames padded to enhance the style’s design lines.
When it comes to size, Racha says the Laurel is one of the medium-size sofas that can fit comfortably in most spaces.
Moreover, it is important to consider how the Laurel furniture will support your unique body type. The depth of Laurel seat cushions is medium while the back is low. When seated in an upright position, the Laurel furniture is most comfortable and supportive for average-height individuals, around 5'5" to 5’11”, says Racha.
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 that you visit a La-Z-Boy showroom and take the Laurel for a sit test with the help of a La-Z-Boy sales consultant. In the meantime, you may find helpful pointers in the article How to Find the Right Sofa Size For You?
The Laurel is available as a chair & a half, a sofa, and an ottoman.

Laurel Furniture Family Options & Upgrade
When looking at Laurel’s options and upgrades, there are plenty to choose from. It is important to remember that all options and upgrades come at an additional cost, meaning the price of your Laurel furniture is subject to increase.
Upholstery Cover Options
When selecting the fabric or leather for your Laurel Recliner, 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 Laurel is also available in specialty fabrics and leathers that offer unique features and benefits…
- Stain Resistant: Innovative iClean Technology surrounds each fabric fibre, creating a barrier that repels spills before turning into stains.
- Pet Friendly: Tested and formulated to withstand the scratches and wear that a pet can cause to ensure a durable and easily washable fabric.
- Antimicrobial Fabric: Antimicrobial properties surround each fibre to protect against mould, mildew and odour-causing bacteria.
- Performance: Superior stain and fade resistance properties make fabrics easy to clean and incredibly durable.
- Eco-Friendly: Conserve Sustainable Fabrics are soft, durable and made from recycled water bottles.
- Energy Restoration: Restore by Nanobionic® features a mineral-based fabric coating that transforms natural body heat into energy using infrared technology.
Cushion Upgrade
At an additional cost, Laurel 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.
Pillow Options
The Laurel Chair & a Half and Sofa come with pillows, which means you can customize those as well. You can accessorize your pillows by adding an accent colour to them, as well as contrasting welt, cording or fringe. What's more, there are also 6 select accent pillow options to choose from, which will not increase the price of your furniture.
If you want to get specific, you can also request feather padding for your pillows instead of the usual foam padding.
Wood Leg Finish Options
Finally, Laurel’s wood leg finish can also be customized. Any Laurel furniture item comes in one of three finish options:
- Mahogany (Base Price)
- Coffee (Additional Cost)
- Graphite (Additional Cost)
Laurel Furniture Family Cost
According to Racha the products in the Laurel furniture family fall within the mid-price range on the market while falling within the low to the mid-price range offered at La-Z-Boy.
While the cost of the Laurel furniture is considered quite standard at La-Z-Boy, it is important to note that La-Z-Boy furniture is considered more expensive in the market. This cost is reflected in the quality of materials and craftsmanship of our products.

The Laurel sofa, chair & a half, and ottoman are all fantastic products, but are they right for you?
