Without further ado, let’s get into our list of the best recliner chairs!
The Types Of Recliner Chairs
There are a wide variety of different types of reclining chairs available to purchase. Some of these are geared more towards design & comfort, whilst others are specially engineered to help with your mobility and ergonomics. Some of the key types of reclining chairs include:
Traditional Recliner
A traditional recliner chair usually has a comfortable cushioned seat, padded armrests and a button to work the reclining functions. They come in a wide range of aesthetics and are designed to look great with your home design.
Traditional recliners offer comfort by allowing you to recline the backrest and extend the footrest, customising the seating position to your preference.
Electric Recliner
Electric reclining chairs offer many of the same benefits as traditional recliners, but they offer greater control over the positioning of the backrest and footrest.
Electric recliners often come with two buttons (one to move the backrest/footrest further down and one to bring them up). This allows you to decide exactly which position you want your chair to be in to meet your support needs at any given time.
Lift & Rise Recliner
Lift & rise recliners are designed with a lifting mechanism that helps with more painful mobility issues by easily transitioning from a seated to a standing position. They feature a motorised mechanism to assist with the lift function.
These chairs are a fantastic option for those who have trouble getting up from a seated position and can help relieve pain from knees and other joints that take a lot of pressure when standing up and down.
