Rise, Recline, and Relax in Style!

Rise and Recliner Chairs

1. Think About Your Needs


  • Getting In and Out of the Chair: If you find it hard to stand up, a chair with lift assistance will gently raise you to your feet.
  • Comfort for Health Conditions: If you have back pain, arthritis, or poor circulation, look for a chair with good back support, soft padding, and adjustable positions.
  • How You’ll Use It: Do you need a chair for watching TV, reading, napping, or sitting for long periods? Some chairs can fully recline for a nap or even sleep.


2. Important Features to Look For


  • Reclining Options:
    • Simple Chairs: These move the footrest and backrest at the same time.
    • More Advanced Chairs: These let you move the footrest and backrest separately, so you can find the perfect position.
  • Heat and Massage: Some chairs come with built-in warmth and gentle massage, which can ease aches and pains.
  • Easy Controls: The controls should be simple to use, with clear buttons that you can easily see and feel.


3. Make Sure It Fits You


  • Height and Weight: The chair should match your height and support your weight comfortably.
  • Seat Size: You should feel snug, but not cramped. The seat should support your thighs and let your feet touch the ground when sitting.
  • Back and Neck Support: A high backrest is helpful if you need extra support for your neck or head.


4. Keep Safety in Mind


  • Sturdy and Stable: The chair should feel solid and not tip over when you sit down or stand up.
  • Power Backup: Some chairs come with a battery so you can still use it during a power cut.
  • Non-Slip Surfaces: This helps you stay steady and secure when sitting or standing.


5. Choose the Right Material


  • Easy-to-Clean Fabrics: If spills happen, look for a chair with wipe-clean covers.
  • Comfortable Padding: Soft, supportive foam will keep you comfortable for longer.
  • Durable Build: A good chair should last for years, so pick one that feels well-made.


6. Practical Things to Think About


  • Space at Home: Measure the space where you’ll put the chair, and make sure there’s enough room for it to recline.
  • How Much It Costs: Prices vary a lot. A basic model might cost a few hundred pounds, but more advanced chairs with lots of features can cost over £1,000.
  • Trying Before You Buy: If possible, visit a showroom or ask about a trial period to see if the chair feels right for you.


7. Where to Find Your Chair


  • Specialist Shops: These often have staff who can help you find the perfect fit.
  • Trusted Brands: Look for names like Pride Mobility, HSL, or Rise & Recline.
  • Local Help: Some charities or services might let you borrow or test a chair before buying.


8. Ask for Help


  • Family or Friends: They can help with measurements, choosing a chair, or moving it into your home.
  • Health Professionals: An occupational therapist can give advice based on your health and mobility needs.
