What Should I Look for When Buying a Lift Chair?
Lift chairs assist you in getting up or sitting down in your chair by raising or lowering the entire chair with just the touch of a button. They also reduce back pain by allowing you to sit down more gently. Lift chairs are ideal for people who have leg, back, or balance issues, or who have recently had surgery that temporarily affects their mobility.
Do Lift Chairs Recline?

Some home lift chairs recline all the way back to a sleep-ready position while other models offer additional recline positions to increase circulation and provide other health benefits like heat and massage.
Lift chair recliners come in a variety of configurations to fit different needs and budgets.
