La-Z-Boy, the nation’s leading manufacturer of upholstered furniture, has announced the opening of a second La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® store in Louisville, Ky., located at 5100 Robb’s Lane. The other store is located at 2921 South Hurstbourne Parkway.
The new 13,500-square-foot store features the full selection of stylish La-Z-Boy® furniture, beautiful accent pieces, and a professionally-staffed design center to help customers put it all together.
“La-Z-Boy offers furniture for any home, whether you are looking for something contemporary or classic, casual or traditional,” said Brian Bloom, owner of both stores. “The style, quality and comfort of La-Z-Boy furniture combined with the design expertise and customer service we provide make an easy, enjoyable furniture shopping experience for any customer.”
More Than Recliners : La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries feature the entire selection of La-Z-Boy furniture offerings, including the company’s world-famous recliners, along with motion sofas, sleep sofas, sectionals, stationary sofas and chairs, and leather upholstery.
Organized in “galleries” – including a Living Room Gallery, Family Room Gallery, Sleep Sofa Gallery, Leather Gallery, and, of course, a Recliner Gallery – the furniture at La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries stores is displayed in vignettes complete with occasional and accent furnishings by La-Z-Boy subsidiaries Alexvale, Hammary and Kincaid, along with a dramatic selection of decorative accents, including lamps, area rugs, wall art and accessories, all available for sale.
Professional Design Assistance : Every La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries showroom is built around a La-Z-Boy Design Center, which is staffed by design consultants and was created to provide customers with inspiration, answers and helpful assistance. Included in the design area is the La-Z-Boy Screen Test® video catalog system that allows customers to design their own furniture by rendering any La-Z-Boy product in their choice of hundreds of fabric and leather covers.
“Emphasizing design and style, the La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries exemplify our direction for the future of La-Z-Boy,” said Kurt Darrow, president of La-Z-Boy. “By providing our customers with design assistance and an enjoyable shopping experience, we are going beyond offering exceptional products by giving them complete solutions for their homes.”
Making the shopping experience even more family-friendly, these stores feature a wide circular pathway for easy navigation for families with children and strollers.
Eye-catching signage guides shoppers through the store, directing them to the various galleries and providing meaningful information along the way. And, there is even a fun, interactive and educational play station in the Design Center area to entertain young children while parents work with the store design consultants to create the rooms of their dreams.
Headquartered in Monroe, Mich., La-Z-Boy is the nation’s largest manufacturer of upholstered furniture and the world’s leading producer of reclining chairs. It is a division of La-Z-Boy Incorporated, one of the nation’s largest furniture manufacturers and marketers.
