Questions To Consider When Buying a Lift Chair
What size is your room?
This purchase is a important part of your home and needs to match and fit your room of choice. We carry special lift chairs for small rooms and tight quarters. One must make sure this new piece of furniture will fit properly in your space.
What size are you? Height, weight, width
Our lift chairs come in four sizes: (1) small-petite, (2) medium-large, (3) extra-large/wide and (4) tall. As a general guide, Small-Petite Lift Chairs are recommended for users 5'4" tall and below and can hold weight capacities of 300 lbs. to 325 lbs. Medium-Large Lift Chairs are recommended for users between 5'5" and 6' tall and usually have capacities of 375 lbs. Tall Lift Chairs like our Luxury Tall Lift Chair, are for users 6'1" to 6'6" tall and have weight capacities of 375 lbs.

How much time will you spend in your lift chair daily?
Some lifting chairs have softer back styles while others have firmer back cushions. Button-style backs are usually of the firmer variety while the pillow style back lift chairs have softer cushions.
Do you need a straight back, two, three or infinite position lift chair?
Straight back, as the name inplies, do not recline. Because they are lighter and more portable, these models are better suited for the dinner table, living room, office or any room where assistance is needed. Two-position lift chairs have two recline positions: straight, and "TV recline", which is leaned slightly back for reading, relaxing or watching television. Three-position lift chairs can be stopped in any position by releasing the recline or lift button. As a 3-way chair begins to recline the ottoman raises. Infinite position lift chairs have independently operated back and ottoman movement for an infinite number of recline positions from straight up to "sleep recline", which can lay flat like a bed.
Do you require heat and massage?
Some models come with a heat & massage option which operates on the lower back only. Deluxe heat & massage is also available, which heats and massages the lower back, seat and legs. |
