Have you ever noticed that the pads on the back of a lazy boy recliner lift up? It may seem like a small issue, but it can be quite annoying. The good news is there are some easy fixes for this problem!
This blog post will show you how to fix two different causes of why these pads rise: loose springs and worn-out fabric.
Tips on why Lazyboy Recliner Pads Lifts Up
Tip 1. Sometimes the springs on your lazyboy recliner are just loose. This is usually a quick fix, and all you need to do is tighten up those springs! To figure out if this could be the problem, take off one of the pads from the backside of your chair.
With two hands pull straight down on each side until it pops back in place. Repeat this process for the other side, and you should have a nice and tight lazyboy recliner!
Tip 2. Another possible cause of why your Lazyboy recliners are lifting is that it’s wearing out fabric from your chair.
This could be due to many reasons: everything from constant use, to just dirt and dust accumulating on the fabric.
One sign of this could be that you will notice little balls of stuffing popping out from underneath your lazyboy recliner pad, or maybe even a hole in the fabric!
To fix this problem all you need to do is find an upholstery store and get them to replace it for you with new fabric.

How to Clean a Lazyboy Recliner
Your lazy boy recliner should be vacuumed every week, but it is also important to spot clean and upholstery stains. To remove the chair pad you will need to locate where the screws are located on each side of your back railings–usually four or six (depending on how old and what kind of lazyboy recliner you have).
Screws should be a Phillips head screwdriver and are usually found on the inside top of where your arm goes. Next, take out all four screws–two on each side. Gently pull off the back pad from below to reveal the “inner workings” of your chair’s frame.
Now, when you have the back pad removed from your chair frame (top and bottom) you can vacuum or spot clean. The next time someone spills their drink on it–you know what to do!
