A good armchair is one of life's little luxuries, and while all our chairs are made with comfort in mind, we know that everybody has a different opinion of what makes the perfect armchair.
We all have a favourite chair, somewhere we can sit and feel both physically and mentally relaxed, whether it is to chat with family, to read a book or perhaps to settle in front of the TV and let our eyes drift closed for a few minutes. However, if you have limited mobility, the act of settling into or getting up from your seat can be a real challenge.
Without doubt, a good riser recliner armchair is one of the best mobility products for the home - being able to sit comfortably and not struggle to get into or out of a comfy chair is a godsend for many people. Riser recliners combine the latest in design with innovative technology to give you maximum comfort, and from the basic single motor riser recliner, to the multi-motor models with indivi...

One of the most challenging aspects of caring for the elderly is helping people to be comfortable all day long. If you've ever sat through a long film in an uncomfortable chair you'll know how it feels when you try to get up, only to find that your muscles feel contracted and stiff, and it's hard to get up. Luckily, you can get up and have a good stretch to get your body aligned properly again.
