La-z-boy recliners are really good, but very hard to get over here..There are ones that come with massagers, speakers, wireless headsets, a small freezer....aaah, so relaxing

Stanley seatings [bangalore] are the distributors for la-z-boy in india....these are the same guys who make most of the OEM leather seat covers.

But they have not released full range of recliners-massagers like the one you are mentioning

But they do have limited range of recliners which are good enough.

I also figured out that for medium built people PINNACLE is supposed to be the best suited recliener, anyway visit their authorized dealers and try out. But ensure that you sit on them for atleast 10 minutes before choosing.

Any idea about the prices...starting range . I wouldn't wanna sit in one for 10mins and have my *** kicked out later.

There are lots of recliners, just that the La-z-boy's are famous. I'd be equally happy with a nice big bean bag while watchin TV.

This is the one i was talkin about..



The La-Z-Boy Cool Chair comes equipped with every feature you could ever dream of while shifting and fidgeting in a regular chair. Once you've used this chair, you'll never want to move again. Under one arm there is a 10 motor heated massage controller, and a built-in telephone; and under the other arm is a thermo-electric cooler large enough to hold your beers. Need we say more!!

Fully reclines just 10cm from the wall
10 Point Massager
Combined Heated Lumbar Control
Telephone
Beverage Cooler
Cup Holder in Lid

Price(Inc VAT): £1099.00

pinnacle is the base model

pellisuede = 27k
art leather + classic leather mixture = 29k
classic leather only = 32k
nappa leather only = 40k (something like that no sure)

basically for the same chair design, the prices are different based on different type of leathers used.

people say that we should go for 'classic leather' atleast if we plan to use it for atleast 10 years......when we pay 30k for a chair we better use it for 10 years.

And other models are bigger in size, they are not neccessarily with more feature, just that bigger size is for bigger people.

try all the recliners you want, but i haven't seen any recliner match the comfort of la-z-boy. btw they are providing 10-year-warranty on mechanism.
