About the Piper Furniture Family

The Piper furniture family offers a sleek and streamlined style that fits just about any decor from ultra-modern to comfortably casual. 

Piper’s simple and smooth seats offer long-lasting comfort and support, while the elegant modern arms and decorative wood legs bring just a touch of an upscale vibe.

The reason why people gravitate towards this furniture family is likely because of its modern design. The legs are more exposed than other furniture frames, which catches the attention of many individuals.

The back of the Piper is cushiony and soft but has a firmer back, creating a tight back appearance. This is perfect for anyone looking for a clean look within their furniture pieces. It also features minimal lines within the design, accentuating the clean look.

In terms of size, Racha explains that the size and dimensions of the Piper are average for a furniture frame. With this, the Piper will fit nicely in most average-sized spaces.

It is also important to consider the size of the Piper in comparison to your unique height and body type.

Given that the Piper features a tall back and somewhat deep seat cushions, it is most comfortable for those between the height of 5’10” to 6’2”. 

“Anyone shorter than [5’10”] may not be able to reach the headrest at the top, but will still feel comfortable because the back cushions are firm,” says Racha. With that being said, we have a range of more petite La-Z-Boy furniture that is ideal for short individuals, including a list of the Best Recliners for Short People.

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 Piper for a sit test, with the help of a La-Z-Boy design consultant. In the meantime, you may find helpful pointers in the article How to Find the Right Sofa Size For You?

The Piper is available as a loveseat and a sofa.

Piper Furniture Family Options & Upgrades

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

Upholstery Cover Options

When selecting the fabric or leather for your Piper sofa, 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.

*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 Piper 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, Piper 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 Piper Loveseat 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.

Queen Sleep Sofa Upgrade

The Piper Sofa comes in many different configurations, one being a queen sleep sofa. With the Piper Supreme-Comfort Queen Sleep Sofa, you can turn any living room into a guest room. 

Along with the unique features of the original sofa, the Piper queen sleeper offers overnight guests a queen-size supreme comfort quilted innerspring mattress that measures 5.5” thick.

The sleeper mattresses can be upgraded to include either a Slumber Air mattress, which is an inflatable air mattress for extra adjustability, or a firmer mattress that provides a more solid sleeping surface, similar to the firm cushion upgrade.

Chaise & Matching Ottoman

Piper’s sofa also has the option to include a chaise seat. It is also the only sofa at La-Z-Boy to do so!

The chaise cushion, which can be offered on either the left or right side of the couch, offers even more space to relax. You can also choose to place the ottoman wherever you like, offering an extra seat or a place to kick up your legs.

If you decide to upgrade to the Piper Queen Sleep Sofa, mentioned above, you can further enhance this selection by adding a chaise piece as well.

Wood Leg Finish Options

Lastly, Piper’s wood leg finish can be customized as well. Any Piper furniture item can come in one of four finish options:

• Mahogany (Base Price)
• Coffee (Additional Cost)
• Graphite (Additional Cost)
• Driftwood (Additional Cost)

Piper Furniture Family Cost

According to Racha the products in the Piper 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 Piper 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. 

With this, the investment tends to be worthwhile if you are looking for long-lasting furniture.

Is the Piper Furniture Family Right For You?

Now that you know everything you need to know about the Piper furniture family, is it the right furniture for you? 

In terms of functionality, Piper’s furniture is stationary, meaning those who are looking for reclining furniture may not enjoy this furniture family. 

Alternatively, the matching ottoman may satisfy those looking for a reclining option if they enjoy the style of the Piper. However, reclining with an ottoman is not the same as reclining with a recliner.

Lastly, these products are considered modern furniture items, making the Piper furniture ideal for homeowners seeking a classic, yet updated look.  

On the contrary, those who prefer more traditional furniture styles, may not like the look of the Piper.
