When it comes to combining style, comfort, and functionality, the Harbor Town Gliding Recliner by La-Z-Boy is an excellent choice.
La-Z-Boy is renowned for creating furniture that delivers unmatched comfort, and the Harbor Town Gliding Recliner is no exception. This chair stands out with its sleek, modern design, perfect for those who want contemporary aesthetics without sacrificing the signature La-Z-Boy comfort.
In this review, we’ll take a closer look at the features, comfort level, and overall performance of the Harbor Town Gliding Recliner, evaluating how it fits into a modern living room while delivering superior relaxation.
The Harbor Town Gliding Recliner combines sleek, modern design with exceptional functionality, making it the perfect addition to any contemporary living space.
Designed to provide both style and comfort, this chair offers versatile seating options with the ability to swivel, glide, and recline. Whether you’re looking to relax or enjoy a bit of movement, this gliding recliner adjusts to your needs with ease.
One of the standout features of this recliner is its independent reclining function. The chair back can recline without activating the leg rest, allowing you to find the perfect angle for relaxation without changing the position of your legs.
When you do choose to recline, the chaise seat and leg rest come together to create an uninterrupted line of comfort, offering full-body support and elevating your comfort experience.

Whether you're using it for casual lounging, reading, or simply enjoying some downtime, the Harbor Town Gliding Recliner offers both functionality and modern design to suit your lifestyle.

“Love the look , feel , and size of this wonderful chair! It fits perfectly in our home! It's so comfortable , my husband hardly leaves his fav chair!” - Lisa A.
“Chair is very comfortable, but the mechanism to raise the foot is very stiff and hard to lift. The chair swivels and foot lift only works in one spot. If one positions the chair, the foot part cannot lift. It has to swivel back then lift then swivel again with foot up. Seems a bit awkward. Otherwise love the comfort, rocking motion and swivel.” - Susan H.
"The recliner is compact and fits perfectly in an apartment. It looks great and is very comfortable.” - Anna U.
