What’s a lift chair?
Jun. 30, 2025

Lift chair for sale in Mississauga Ontario

A lift chair is a type of recliner that has a built-in motorized lifting mechanism to help the user stand up or sit down more easily. It looks similar to a regular recliner but includes a power-lift function that tilts the base and back of the chair forward to assist the user in getting up without strain.

Key Features:

  • Electric motor (or dual motors): Controls the reclining and lifting functions.
  • Remote control: Simple interface to adjust the position (sitting, reclining, or standing).
  • Multiple positions: Some offer just basic up/down, while others provide full reclining or zero-gravity positioning.
  • Comfort: Often padded and designed for long-term sitting or napping.

Who Benefits from a Lift Chair?

  • Seniors or individuals with mobility issues, arthritis, balance problems, or recovery from surgery.
  • Anyone who finds it painful or difficult to transition between sitting and standing.

Types:

  1. 2-position lift chairs: Recline slightly, good for reading or watching TV.
  2. 3-position lift chairs: Recline further back, including a nap position.
  3. Infinite position (or zero-gravity): Separate motors allow the back and footrest to move independently, offering a wide range of customizable positions.
