Bariatric Lift and Recline Chair with Independent Footrest
Supportive, Compact and Comfortable Lift Recliner Chair for Everyday Use
Finding a lift chair that provides full support and customisable comfort without overwhelming a smaller room can be a challenge. For those who are frail or have difficulty moving, being able to sit and stand without assistance is essential for maintaining independence. A chair that is too large can be impractical, while one that lacks proper support can cause discomfort over time.
The Lift and Recline Chair with Independent Footrest is designed to solve these problems. It offers the functionality of a heavy-duty lift chair in a compact form, making it ideal for units, apartments, or any room where space is a consideration. With an independent footrest and backrest, you can find the perfect position for any activity, from reading a book to taking a nap. The ability to elevate the legs above hip height aids comfort and relaxation. A simple push-button hand control allows you to recline, sit, or stand up smoothly and safely, providing practical assistance throughout the day.
