Great video, thanks! Can you please tell us what brand the "liquid wax" is?

[photographybya]

The questions the woman asks make this video extra helpful. Thanks!

It's finally silent after years of squeaks! thank you
putting bicycle lubricant on the springs did it for me.

Mine's not a lazy boy but My boyfriend's rocker recliner squeaks and bonging sounds are enough to drive me crazy! He says he doesn't even hear it. But sitting on this side of him it's all I can hear. It actually causes us to argue. So you may be saving a relationship. Thanks for the video!

I did all that and I am still getting this subtle little squeaking sound from my La-Z-Boy recliner.

One more comment that I think La-Z-Boy should know about. With the recliner that I had before I got this one, the curved wooden pieces that connect to the frame and rock on the base broke loose from the frame because they were only held on with wooden dowels. The dowels break. I got this La-Z-Boy, and it wound up doing the same thing because they also were connected only using wooden dowels. I turned the chair over and drove deck screws from that wooden piece into the frame at each end of the two wooden pieces. Four screws on each end. A total of 16 screws. I have not had a problem since then. That part should be connected with good heavy wood screws, not dowels.

Thanks so much. A little Blaster silicon spray on the rocker springs and my squeak is gone!

[brianbaker]

Very well done, thank you for sharing your experience.

Oh my dog! My chair is silent for the first time since I bought it! Thank you so very much! (It was the wax that solved it)!

[stephensimmons]

The wax ended up aggrevating the squeak for me. But seeing how adding wax made the squeak worse, I tried the reverse and filed away the wax on the rocker block which fixed the noise.

[jasonbovey]

Can I or somebody get me a link for what type of spray and what was in the can so I get the right stuff?

[mkkl]

What kind of wax did you put on the chair

[scrt]

The silicone spray did the trick. Thank you

[MrStillions]

Thank you so much. I was about to burn the thing it was driving me insane.

I have a La-Z-Boy recliner that I paid about $1800 for. The back makes a creaking sound (not squeaking springs) like an old haunted house. I had 3 repairs, finally on #4 they replaced the back. 3 weeks later that back is creaking again. I took the back off and had to tighten all the torque screws. ... 9 Months later... I have to tighten the torque screws about twice a month to get rid of this creaking.

[zukerama]

Fixed! The creaking spring when rocking was getting louder. Now. Silence! I have the same model as in the video.

What about rocker recliner swivel chair with metal frame made by you

[rawalker]

That's amazing! Problem instantly fixed!

[timdgsr]

I used pb blaster silicone spray and Johnson’s paste wax. It literally went from a little annoying to super loud. I wouldn’t recommend following this advice.

[kristenfaith]

Where can I find the fabric code that is supposed to be on a tag attached to the furniture

[DenizCDemir]

This didn't fix my problem. I have the LaZ boy Pinnacle and there's an extra metal connector that also supports the rocking motion in the middle of the chair. That turned out to be what was squeaking, not the springs on the sides. I can't tell if the chair in this video has it. But make sure you guys spray that too if yours does. The wax seems excessive since my chair doesn't have any wax on the wood to begin with, so I'm guessing its not that important.
