Our range of riser recliners includes single motor, dual motor and 4-motor riser recliners, and your decision depends on the extent to which you want to adjust the setup of the footrest and backrest. Our Occupational Therapist, Natasha, has some great advice for choosing a riser recliner, “With a chair, consider the height, width and depth to ensure it will support your posture to avoid any discomfort down the line”.
A single action recliner chair will let you lower the backrest and raise the footrest at the same time. With a dual motor riser recliner, you’ll have a lot more control over the angle of the backrest and the footrest. This is great if you need to keep your feet up for medical reasons, but you still want to sit upright to watch TV or read a book.
Whether you choose a single motor or a dual motor riser recliner, you’ll always be able to recline the chair into a comfortable near-horizontal position to catch up on some rest.
It’s also important to find the right kind of backrest. A recliner with a pillow back design provides a warming, padded feel, while a waterfall backrest offers extra pressure relief in the back, especially in the lumbar region.
Our riser recliners are available in a range of designs and fabrics, with stylish, low-maintenance leather as well as incredibly soft and durable fabric upholsteries to choose from. If you’re looking for something more bespoke, our Ultimate Comfort range can be customised with matching pieces to create comfort that your whole family can enjoy.
