Nearly a Century of American Craftsmanship
In 1927, two cousins with a simple vision changed the furniture industry forever. Edward M. Knabusch and Edwin J. Shoemaker started with orange crates and a dream to create “nature’s way of relaxing.” Their innovative wood-slat porch chair with a reclining mechanism became the foundation of what we know today as La-Z-Boy—a brand that has become synonymous with comfort, quality, and American manufacturing excellence.
