Date of purchase: 9/20/15. Item(s): ******* Low Profile Recliner (QTY 2). Purchase Price: $977.48 (each). Warranty: Frames and wood bases-Lifetime of unit. Issue: In mid-may 2023, we sought warranty repair for our two special order recliners. One of the recliners had a loud crack and the wood frame on the front of the recliner broke(wood) at the joint/point of attachment. The second recliner has a loose arm/side. Our original store in West ********** closed last year and we approached another local store on ********. in ********** for warranty information. We were advised to contact the new company owner at *************. This is the ******** customer service number for ************ and central valley. On June 13, 2023, I attempted to contat ******** at that number and after several minutes of waiting in the queue for a representative, I was disconnected. I redialed and reentered the queue again and could only leave a message without any live representative availability. I also went online and filed a request for service on the ******** website on that same day. The automated message on the customer service line indicated that I would get a callback within 24 hours. To date, I have had no callback or interaction with ********. I attempted to call the phone number again today and again, could only leave a message. Since the phone number provided is in the (408) area code, I decided to file the complaint in this area.Remedy: To this point, we were only seeking to have repair of our recliners citing the lifetime warranty clearly indicated on the warranty information cards. However, in the event that the warranty claim cannot be addressed or ******** is unable to honor the warranty, we would seek restitution or replacement.

I purchased a sectional reclining couch in May of 2022. When I purchased the couch, we were told the only cushion available to us was a standard cushion and that it was firm. I have back issues, and I needed something that wouldn't be too soft. We were replacing a couch that we had for 7 years, and the #1 reason is that the cushions were too soft. When the couch arrived in November 2022, we didn't get a chance to really explore the couch. We had holiday travels and lots of activities. We also left the country. When we were back in January, we noticed that the couch was very soft, and when sitting, you sink very low. To sit on the couch, you have to bring in extra cushions or pillows to sit on. In early February, we knew this couch was not right. After calling a few times with no callbacks, I drove out to the store location. I spoke to the newly promoted manager *********************** who informed me that the person who sold me the couch was no longer there. He shared with me that she had a history of not being thorough and apologized that we weren't offered other cushions that were available at the time of purchase. After several attempts, ***** finally got a person to come look at our couch. The technician said that he could see our complaint, he shared that this was standard for ********** standard cushion, but he would submit in paperwork. That was on 3/13/23. After repeated phone calls and repeated conversations with ********, who was trying to help us since ***** wouldn't call back. She kept forgetting. Every conversation, I had to start over until she would say, "Oh.. I see". Finally, ***** called back and shared his District managers were not going to help us. I offered to pay the difference for the upgraded cushions, and I was told no. I have a $10K couch that is brand new and can't be used. I have other couches from them, those are fine. I'm a repeat buyer, and they told me they don't care. In the pictures, you can see you sink at least 4".

I am rejecting this response because: the couch sinks down quite a bit when you sit on it. The cushions are not adequate and we were told the cushions would be firm. In looking at our order paperwork, no where on the paperwork does it say standard cushions. It's written in LazyBoy code and no where do they share that their couch cushions would sink several inches. We were very clear with their sale person on what we needed and why. It's unclear why they can't work with us to remedy the couch issue.

Sincerely,

On 11/3/22 I ordered a recliner from La z boy and was over charged $2.01. I left messages for the salesman ***, several times to inquire about this. When I finally reached him, he said he gave it to the manager to resolve - without calling me to tell me he had done so. I then left a message for the manager to call me - he never has. My question is, do they overcharge all customers? The communication is horrible. I wouldn't pursue this except, No one told us that to pick up the piece from the store, there would be no one to help. My husband had to **** ft it himself up to *********** drive bed of the truck! When we got it home, we discovered it was faulty. They refused to deliver the replacement recliner! We waited for the replacement to arrive & we had to unload the damaged chair & load the replacement! With all of this, we figure they owe us alot more than the $2.01. Do they overcharge all customers?

Lazy boy is not honoring their warranty. I have been trying for months to get my couch repaired. It is currently not usable with a broken frame. First call no appointment for over 4 weeks, they couldnt fix it. They ordered a part but they didnt actually. So when I called them they did. But refused to scheduled an appointment until the part arrived. So I had a huge box to hold until another month the appointment could be made. Then it was the wrong part. The couch was left not usable. Screws and staples all over my floor and they said another part needed to be ordered. This time they want to schedule first (strange) but its over a month out. If I accept that and it actually gets fixed that will over 4 months. Every time I call I either get told I need to call someone else (in a big circle) or someone is busy and they will call back. But they dont. The last call I just had she (******) hung up on me because she claimed I was being rude for not understanding that they were short staffed. I had told her that wasnt my problem I just want my couch fixed soon I have now called daily for 2 weeks, no one is ever available. I get empty promises that I will be called back which doesn't happen. Still the second part has not arrived. I have been out a couch now for 1/4 a year with no end in site. I need a couch for my home. This one is not in a safe condition especially around small children. So I want a full refund for the couch plus the $75 for starting the repair.

Complaint: 19615760

I am rejecting this response because: I started this process in December and have been without a couch since then.
That part should have been ordered immediately given the circumstances and they waited over a week. Then probably another 2 months waiting for the 3rd appointment.
Secondly the second repair man left my living room a disaster screws and staples all over the floor. The couch wasnt even put back together so its been useless since. Given the risk of small part being left out to small children this issue needed to be addressed. They refuse to acknowledge this or send another repair company that is safer and more timely.
I am seeking a full refund because rather than honor their warranty in a timely manner they have given unnecessary delays. 30 days is reasonable 4+months is not.

Purchased a reclining sofa 12/2/22 that was delivered 2/11/23. Discovered that night left section sinking in with a significant dip at the low back area and difficult to recline. *ight section difficult to recline. Notified store mgr. the next am, 2/12/23. He stated he would request a replacement section. I informed him if the issue could not be resolved we wanted to return the sofa and get a refund. Total cost: $2,429.72. No response from LaZBoy service ***** 3 days later contacted mgr. who said he could not help and cannot put in a request for replacement. Escalated to Corporate in MI, who delegated to the *egional Manager. 3 weeks later, 3/7, serviceman assessed need to replace * section and * section repair of frame. No response from company to approve the work. Sent email to *eg.Mgr. 3/14, He replied via email it will be at least 4 wks, for a response from customer service to validate replacement and put an order in if they approve it. He's assuming they will. He said this was regarding the * section. No mention of * frame, and he stated 2-3 mos. from there for the replacement section if it is approved. Escalated to *eg.Mgr. and Corporate via email w/no reply to request a return w/refund if issues cannot be resolved w/in 30 days. Sofa causing progression of back issues and pain. It has to be padded with multiple pillows to tolerate use, and reclining function is "rickety." Notified *egional and Corporate in emails 3/14 and 3/15/23 with no response. If the * section of the sofa cannot be replaced and the * section frame replaced/repaired within 30 days, we would like to return the sofa for a refund, as I informed the store manager of within 24 hours of delivery, and as I informed the *egional manager of in our conversation 2/23/23. Thank you.

I am rejecting this response because:
I called LaZBoy **************** yesterday (4/6/23) to inquire about the status of the **** I spoke to a person named ******* who stated ****************** was not available, and ******* offered to look up my information in the system. She could not find any evidence that ******* has contacted Product Support or that ******* has entered an RGA request. I left a message asking for ******* to please call me. As of today at 3pm I have not received a call back. I left her a voice message myself today with no reply thus far.
From my conversation with ******* yesterday it appears that ******* is giving you false information about requesting an RGA from Product Support and about waiting to hear back from them.
It is an atrocity dealing with this company. I have left voice messages and sent emails to the Regional Manager , *********************************. over the past 2 weeks with no reply. I also sent an email to the corporate manager, ************************** over a week ago with no reply. Each message informed them about the egregious defects in the sofa with a request to return it for reimbursement. I also expressed the pain and discomfort it is causing as it continues to deteriorate. In addition to the initial problems of the entire left section needing replacement and the need for a frame repair on the right, the left section reclining leg metal apparatus is so poorly made it has bent, and the right section is detaching from the arm of the sofa.
Thank you.

I am rejecting this response because:
The issue has not been resolved. The serviceman replaced the parts for the initial defects, but it has not fixed the poor workmanship. He had to send a new request to replace the arm frame on the right side. One thing after another is going wrong/breaking on this sofa from the date of delivery on 2/11/23 to now. I was told on 4/10 and 4/17/23 by ******* that an RGA for a refund was in progress and we "absolutely" would hear back before today. When I spoke to Kathalyn in **************** today she stated that the reply has not come in and that the reply will indicate whether or not the refund will be approved.
I asked to speak with *******, the manager, but before I finished my sentence ******** cut me off with "she's not available."
I asked if she could please leave ******* a message to call me. I also emailed the Regional Manager, ********************************* again today . So far no response.
Because there is no resolution by means of a refund, I do not accept the company's reply. Thank you.
