The Emmons Reclining Sofa is the perfect blend of casual transitional design and classic reclining comfort, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to add both relaxation and style to their living space.
With its fresh, simple styling, this recliner sofa provides an updated look that seamlessly combines modern sensibilities with traditional reclining features.
One of the key features of the Emmons Reclining Sofa is its tall cushioned backs, designed with curved splits and exposed sloping wings that provide a unique, stylish look. These backs not only enhance the sofa’s visual appeal but also provide exceptional support for your upper body, ensuring you feel relaxed and supported, whether sitting upright or reclining.
The sloping wings add a sophisticated touch while also helping to frame the back cushions for a well-defined, tailored look.
The sofa recliner also boasts smooth and simple chaise seats and leg rests that are designed for maximum comfort and ease. These chaise-style components are fully adjustable on both the left and right sides, allowing you to effortlessly adjust your seating position and find the perfect angle for lounging.
The wide, streamlined track arms of the Emmons Reclining Sofa contribute to its contemporary design, providing a clean, minimalist look that complements the rest of the sofa's aesthetic. The arms are not only visually appealing but also practical, providing a sturdy surface for resting your arms while you relax.
For easy and intuitive use, the sofa features convenient latch releases located on the outside arms, allowing you to easily adjust the reclining positions of the left and right seats. This makes it simple to find your ideal level of comfort with minimal effort, offering a truly personalized lounging experience.
The Emmons Reclining Sofa combines timeless design with modern functionality, making it a versatile piece that suits any home. Whether you’re relaxing on your own or with family and friends, this sofa offers a perfect balance of support, comfort, and style.
Because of its taller seat back and deeper cushions, the Emmons Reclining Sofa is the ideal sofa for tall people. It is a great fit for individuals 6’3” and taller.
It is important to note that height guidelines are not set in stone at La-Z-Boy South Texas. Different furniture fits everybody differently, which is why it’s ultimately important to come sit on the reclining couch yourself to see how it fits.

You can upgrade the Emmons Reclining Sofa to power!
Unlike manual furniture that uses a handle or latch, power recliner sofas come with a control panel or a wireless remote for easy reclining at the touch of a button. You can also adjust the headrest support with this convenient feature.
The adjustable headrest allows you to move the head of the power reclining sofa from 0-55 degrees, giving you more range of motion with your reclining positions.
What’s more, the recliners have USB ports next to the control panels to charge your electronic devices and two memory settings that allow you to save any of your favorite relaxing positions. This way, you can easily recline back to the position you favor quickly and accurately.
All power upgrades can be cordless, thanks to our rechargeable battery pack. With this, you can place your power recliners anywhere without worrying about plugging them into an electrical outlet.
The Emmons Reclining Sofa can also be upgraded to include adjustable lumbar support for an additional cost when choosing the power option.
Like the headrest feature, you can control the lower lumbar area of your recliner with the wireless remote. In this case, the lumbar support can expand 3 inches out or deflate to perfectly match the unique curvature of your lumbar spine.
The Emmons Reclining Sofa has a starting cost of $2,439. Keep in mind that this is only a starting cost and does not include any of the potential upgrades listed above.
While this price is considered to be standard at La-Z-Boy South Texas, it is important to understand why La-Z-Boy furniture is considered more expensive than other Texas furniture. The cost is reflected in the quality of materials and high-end craftsmanship in our furniture.
