About the Paxton Furniture Family

The Paxton has many different unique features from other furniture families. Paxton’s clean lines and crisp welt trim give it a neat and structured silhouette. 

It features deep, T-shaped seat cushions, low-profile wood legs, and chamber-filled back cushions that maintain their shape and support over time. 

Patented ComfortCore® cushions provide just the right amount of support for a long or short sit. For more information, take a look at the Review of La-Z-Boy’s Chair & Sofa Seat Cushions.

The Paxton has wide arms and deep seats, meaning the Paxton is wider than other La-Z-Boy furniture items. This is the reason why the Paxton furniture family features a chair & a half instead of a regular-sized chair.

Marianne notes “the cushions pour out of the furniture frame giving it a welcoming feel to your living room.”

Further, with this larger scale, the Paxton furniture comfortably seats those between the heights of 6’3” and up. This is because of its deeper seats that make the user sink into the furniture frame. However, that depends on how you’d like to sit on your furniture. 

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 Paxton is right for your unique body type. To learn more, take a look at our article How to Find the Right Sofa Size For You?

The Paxton is available as a chair & a half, loveseat, a sofa, sectional and an ottoman.

Paxton Furniture Family Options & Upgrades

When looking at Paxton’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 Paxton furniture is subject to increase. 

Upholstery Cover Options

When selecting the fabric or leather for your Paxton, 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 Paxton 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, Paxton 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 Paxton 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, Paxton’s wood leg finish can also be customized. Any Paxton furniture item comes in one of four finish options:

1. Mahogany (Base Price)
2. Coffee (Additional Cost)
3. Graphite (Additional Cost)
4. Driftwood (Additional Cost)

Paxton Furniture Family Cost

In terms of cost, Marianne notes that the Paxton furniture products fall within the mid-high price range at La-Z-Boy. This is because of the larger cushions made within the design.

While the cost of the Paxton furniture is considered mostly 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.

*All La-Z-Boy prices listed in this article are subject to change. We aim to update all cost-related articles twice per year. This article was last updated on January 22nd, 2025. Contact your local Ottawa, Gatineau or Kingston location by phone or in person for up-to-date pricing.

Is the Paxton Furniture Family Right For You?

Now that you know everything about the Paxton furniture family, is this the right furniture family for you? 

In terms of functionality, the Paxton furniture family is stationary, meaning those who are seeking reclining furniture, may not like this furniture frame. 

With that being said, the Paxton Ottoman can be used to kick your feet up, similar to a reclining seat. If you are looking for a reclining furniture family with a modern look, check out the Talladega Furniture Family.

Moreover, keep in mind that the Paxton has a larger frame, meaning it won’t fit comfortably in all spaces. If you have a large space, the Paxton might fill your room nicely. However, if you live in a smaller space, like an apartment, the Paxton might be too big, and thus not right for you. 

Finally, in terms of style, the Paxton is modern, meaning those who are younger or like to stay on-trend, might enjoy the look of the Paxton, according to Marianne. If you prefer a more traditional look, consider the Alani Sectional.
