TOP-MOUNTED CUPHOLDER CONTROLSMore Controls, Right Where Your Hand Naturally Rests
Waveland XL puts the main powered functions into the cupholder area instead of hiding buttons low on the inside of the arm. Power recline, power headrest, power lumbar, lighting, memory and the home function are grouped together in one easy-to-reach location.
The illuminated cupholder controls are easier to find in a dark theater, while the integrated USB-C charging port remains accessible from the top of the arm.
Three Power AdjustmentsControl recline, headrest and lumbar support independently from the cupholder area.
Memory & Home ButtonsSave a favorite powered position or return the chair upright automatically.
7-Color LED LightingChoose from seven cupholder and base-light colors, adjust brightness with three-level dimming, or turn the LED lighting completely off.

FULL-LENGTH LEG CHANNELSCradles the Legs Like Sitting on a Cloud
Waveland XL uses continuous bucket-style channels that carry the contoured support from the seat through the chaise and footrest. Instead of ending the channels halfway down the seating surface, the Waveland keeps the cushioned shape beneath more of your legs and feet.
The result is a more enveloping bucket-seat feel with continuous support from the seating area into the footrest, rather than a flatter transition that can leave the lower legs with less contouring.
Full-Length ChannelsContoured channels continue from the seat through the chaise and footrest.
Bucket-Style SupportThe sculpted seating surface helps cradle the thighs, legs and feet instead of feeling flat.
More Continuous ComfortThe seat and footrest work together as one supportive seating surface when reclined.
