Rise and Recline Chairs FAQs
What is a rise and recline chair?
Rise and recline chairs are designed specifically for those who struggle to sit down or stand up. They come with motorised mechanisms that allow the user to recline and raise the backrest and footrest using a remote control.
The chair can be adjusted to suit the user's needs, with some models even featuring advanced mechanisms, like massage and heat functions.
