La-Z-Boy’s Zero Gravity Collection: Finding Your Perfect Weightless Moment
La-Z-Boy Southeast | October 28, 2025
You know that feeling when you’re perfectly positioned—not quite sitting, not quite lying down, but somewhere gloriously in between? That’s the essence of zero gravity reclining. Inspired by the posture astronauts assume during liftoff, zero gravity positioning distributes your weight evenly across the chair. It reduces pressure on your spine and creates a sensation of weightlessness. It’s not magic, just smart engineering meeting human comfort needs.
Our zero gravity collection brings NASA-inspired technology home. Each piece has its own way of achieving that perfect floating feeling. Here’s what makes each one special.
Quinault: Modern Zero Gravity Design
The Quinault brings a fresh, contemporary edge to zero gravity reclining. Its clean profile features bold track arms and blocky wood legs that wouldn’t look out of place in a design magazine. But the real story happens when you press that button. Power-tilt headrests provide customizable neck support, while the waterfall chaise seat and footrest cradle your entire body in that signature zero gravity position.
What sets the Quinault apart is its fully horizontal cradling support—your whole body is supported in one continuous motion. The inside-mounted 2-button control panels keep the aesthetic clean, and the built-in USB ports mean you won’t have to leave your comfort zone to charge your devices. Designed for petite scale users (5’3″ and under), it proves that good things really do come in perfectly proportioned packages.
Acadia: High-Leg Zero Gravity Elegance
The Acadia takes a different approach with its high-leg design. At first glance, it looks like an elegant accent chair with its clean, linear silhouette. Look closer, and you’ll discover cutting-edge comfort technology hiding beneath that sophisticated exterior.
The power headrest adjusts independently, letting you find your exact sweet spot. Bold track arms and waterfall chaise create a modern aesthetic. The zero gravity positioning does what it does best—makes you forget you’re even in a chair. Built for taller users (5’10” to 6’2″), the Acadia proves that style and substance aren’t mutually exclusive.
The Armitage Recliner: Stealth Mode
If you’re not into the obvious recliner look, the Armitage is your chair. Its chic minimal design features hidden headrests that stay tucked away until you need them—a sleek low profile that wouldn’t hint at the relaxation potential lurking within.
The extra-wide seat gives you room to settle in however you like, and when you’re ready for that zero-gravity experience, the chair delivers a dreamy weightless sensation. It’s the chair for people who want function without sacrificing form, comfort without advertising it.
Clybourn: Zero Gravity with Classic Appeal
The Clybourn walks the line between traditional and contemporary with its transitional styling. The exposed wood legs and rolled arms give it a refined look, while the high-grade foam seat cushion and double-picked blown fiber back fill ensure it feels as good as it looks.
The power headrest adjusts to support your neck just right, and the high-leg design keeps sight lines clear—perfect for rooms where you don’t want furniture blocking the view. It’s zero gravity capability wrapped in classic good looks.
The Astor Zero Gravity Lift Recliner
Not everyone fits the same mold, and the Astor acknowledges that reality. Designed specifically for larger users, it features a deep, wide seat and comes standard with a tall base. The tall pillow back has three separate cushions that adjust to your body’s contours—because comfort should be personal.
But here’s where the Astor really shines: it’s a power lift recliner with zero-gravity capability. That means it doesn’t just recline into that perfect weightless position—it also helps you get in and out of the chair. The power lift function gently tilts the chair forward, making transitions easier on your body. The one-piece seat and back move together, eliminating gaps and providing continuous support from head to heel. Add in the power headrest and lumbar adjustments, and you’ve got a chair that adapts to you, not the other way around.
Pinnacle: Compact Power and Comfort
Don’t let its smaller scale (designed for users 5’4″ to 5’9″) fool you—the Pinnacle packs serious functionality into a more compact footprint. Like the Astor, it’s a power lift recliner, making it easier to get in and out without assistance.
The one-piece seat and back design means no gaps, no lost support, just continuous comfort as you move from sitting to zero gravity. The power tilt, independent back and legrest motion, and adjustable headrest and lumbar give you virtually unlimited positioning options. The easy-to-use wired controller puts all these adjustments at your fingertips, and the side storage pocket keeps your remote, book, or reading glasses within reach.
Some models even offer optional massage and heat features, turning your recliner into a personal spa station.
The Bottom Line
Whether you’re drawn to the modern lines of the Quinault, the sophisticated high-leg styling of the Acadia, the hidden functionality of the Armitage, the transitional elegance of the Clybourn, or the power-lift capabilities of the Astor and Pinnacle, each piece in our zero gravity collection offers that same core benefit: the chance to truly let go and let your body rest in a position that feels effortless.
Zero gravity positioning isn’t just a feature—it’s a different way to relax. Your body knows the difference, even if you can’t always articulate it. That’s what nearly a century of recliner innovation looks like: chairs that work with your body, not against it.
