Review on 3" X 3.5" Universal Heavy-Duty Metal Sofa Chair Recliner Release Pull Handle Replacement Parts - Fits Ashley, Lazy Boy & Most Brands! by David Alvarez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Does not work on Lane recliners

I bought this because it is metal and the size of the part that was measured was right. The part that is not measured is the total length of the pulling mechanism where the wire fits. The overall length is about half and inch shorter than the Lanes. I did not realize this until I put it on and tried to lift the foot rest and I had to reach down and manually lift it. At first I thought it was catching something so I turned my couch over (which is no easy feat for a 73 year old woman. I checked over and it didn't seem the catching on anything so I thought maybe it need to be greased at all the moving parts, after all it had been about 4 years since it had broken. Turned it back over, after applying grease and tried again, same results. Long story shorter LOL the wire wasn't pulling tight enough to release the footrest mechanism. I did find one that looks just like the one I took off and is longer. So I will change it again tomorrow. (Wish me luck}. I hope will help someone else.

Pros
  • Helps to restore your furniture's original functionality
Cons
  • Metal material could be inconvenient for those with allergies or sensitivities

We bought the plastic ones till we realized (after breaking three) we need something stronger. Then we found these metal ones. My husband is happy with the metal
