HI - Just Need To Know If A Lazy Boy Recliner Is Worth Buying For My Husband To Sleep In Or Just A Waist Of Money?

He finds that as soon as he lies down at night in the bed that his body starts to burn/ache - our bed is new and in good condition so it cannot be the mattress.

I sleep in a Lazy Boy. I find it preferable to my bed as it assists me in getting to an upright position in the morning when I am stiff from sleeping. My Lazy Boy has HEAT and MASSAGE and will take me to a standing position. It fits my height when it is reclined. I find the massage feature valuable on high when I need body stimulation and on low, will actually put me to sleep. Because you can adjust the height and angles of your body in it, I feel it extends my ability to move.

Thank you - have you slept in or know someone who has used the recliner comfortably all night ?

I switched to a recliner and it made my sleep much less active. I definitely get better sleep in the recliner than in a bed. Xoxox

My husband loves his heated mattress pad and heated wrap. His bed is not in a frame, just on a bedspread. He does have problems getting up as his left shoulder needs replaced and he refused. PD cramps make his shoulder worse.
