The Joshua is a full-scale rocker recliner at 40×40×42 – deep 40-inch seat depth lets a taller sitter fully use the chaise, and the Chestnut fabric is a rich brown that reads warmer than the Beige and Sand variants of the same silhouette.
Plush cushioning across the arms and back, smooth manual rocker mechanism, side-handle legrest. The Joshua is one of the more popular La-Z-Boy scales at Kensington because it works for both TV rooms and formal living rooms – the traditional silhouette reads dressier than the more contemporary Finley or Riley.
Ask our La-Z-Boy specialists at the Northfield showroom about the Joshua Ash variant if you want the same frame in a cooler grey neutral.
Questions & Answers
How is the Joshua different from the Ash version?
Same frame – the difference is the fabric. Joshua Chestnut is a warm brown; Joshua Ash is a cool grey. Sit in both if you want to compare fabric hand alongside color.
Is 40-inch seat depth right for me?
A deep seat rewards curling up but leaves shorter sitters with feet dangling when upright. Try the Joshua against a 36″ seat like the Vail to feel the difference before you commit.
Does the Joshua rock at rest?
Yes – the rocker base moves smoothly even without engaging the recline mechanism. It doubles as a nursery rocker or active reading chair.
Where is La-Z-Boy furniture built?
La-Z-Boy builds its frames in the United States. American-made construction is one of the reasons the frames hold up over decades.
Can I try the Joshua in the showroom?
Yes – Kensington has a La-Z-Boy store built inside our Northfield showroom, and the Joshua is usually on the floor.
