      The power recliner in this video is the Lancer Recliner. I have linked it for you down below. As for a recommendation, it all depends on what you're looking for and which chair fits your body. We always recommend trying out recliners in a store near you! Let me know if you have any other questions.

      Hey Bob! La-Z-Boy only guarantees their recliners up to 350lbs unfortunately. If you're going to consider any LZB recliners then you should take a look at the Astor or the Redwood. Both are part of the summit series so they have extra support springs. The links below will give you more info about them.

      Hey Jackie, I hate to hear that you're having an issue with your sleeper. However, this isn't a 1st Street Furniture channel. If your furniture is made by La-Z-Boy then it should have a warranty that'll cover your damages. Please consult the link below if that is the case.

    Make the frame out of aluminum. The curved parts like armrest from stamped sheetmetal, like old car fenders. Why wood?
    Make the back from 4 seperate cushions that can be adjusted by adding or removing stuffing, zipper access, like Lane used to.
    Use springs and batting and foam, not just foam.
    Make the seat cushion go all the way to the back UNDER the bottom of the seat back.
    Delete the rocking and swivel, or make them selectable.
    Most important, make a seperate manual adjust for footrest and back. One on each side or one lever longer than the other.
    I would pay $3000 for that.

Then they will show you in a 3D planner what the space will look like with all the furniture in it. That way you can see if something is too big or two small for the room before you buy it.
