Perfect for living rooms, reading nooks, or cozy corners, the La-Z-Boy Kimberly High Leg Reclining Chair adds a touch of timeless beauty to any room while providing a relaxing place to unwind.

One of the standout features of the Kimberly is its luxurious wing back design. This classic feature not only adds an element of architectural interest but also provides a sense of privacy and comfort, making it ideal for moments of relaxation or reading.

The wing back shape creates a subtle, elegant profile that complements the overall aesthetic of the chair, offering both visual appeal and functional comfort. Whether you’re sitting upright or in a reclined position, the wing back provides additional support for the head and neck, enhancing the overall relaxation experience.

The chair's padded rolled arms add to its sophisticated design while offering a comfortable resting place for your arms. The gentle curves of the rolled arms contribute to the chair’s refined look, giving it a classic, traditional feel that is both inviting and elegant.

The padding ensures that the arms provide ample comfort, allowing you to sit back and relax for long periods without discomfort. These rolled arms, paired with the elegant wing back, make this pushback recliner chair an impressive addition to any room.

Complementing the chair's elegant design are its decorative cabriole wood legs, which add an additional layer of sophistication. These gracefully curved legs are a nod to traditional furniture styles, providing a sturdy base while enhancing the chair’s overall aesthetic.

The cabriole legs, with their distinctive curves, elevate the chair’s design and give it a refined, timeless look that suits a variety of decor styles, from traditional to more contemporary spaces. The wood finish on the legs adds warmth and texture, perfectly balancing the chair's plush upholstery.

The high-quality solid foam back of this push back recliner ensures that the chair maintains a clean, structured appearance while also providing firm, consistent support. This foam back gives the chair a more tailored, sleek profile, which adds to its overall sophisticated look.

The foam provides solid support for your back, helping to maintain proper posture while you sit, and ensuring that the chair retains its shape and appearance over time. The combination of foam back support and the overall design results in a recliner that is both visually appealing and comfortably supportive.

The Kimberly also features a 2-position reclining mechanism, allowing you to easily adjust the chair to your preferred comfort level. Whether you are sitting upright for activities like reading or watching television or want to recline slightly for relaxation, the two-position mechanism offers just the right amount of flexibility.

The simple push-back reclining function ensures that you can change positions effortlessly without the need for a lever or complicated mechanism. This makes the Kimberly chair an excellent choice for those who appreciate both functionality and elegance in their furniture.

Kimberly High Leg Recliner Size & Dimensions
