If you are thinking about purchasing a Lift Chair you will quickly come across the term: 2-Position. This is the standard lift chair. It usually means that the chair can recline somewhere between an upright position and a slight recline, or down to a 45 degree position depending on the model.
These lift chairs can often be just as comfortable as many regular chairs. A lift chair contains an electric motor that is controlled by a hand operated remote to gently help lift you to a standing position so they need to be placed by a wall outlet for power. For people on a budget or who do not require full reclining in a chair these can be a real money saver since a 2-position chair can often be hundreds of dollars cheaper than a 3-position chair!
These days there are many options in the choice of fabrics or upholstery to choose from. When picking out your new chair make sure to check that its height and weight limits will work for you, standard chairs are designed for average height and weight. If you are larger/heavier than average you may need to look for a “Bariatric” lift chair. Petite or slender lift chairs can also be for those who want a shorter or smaller model.
With styles and models that can vary from a “vintage look” to “contemporary” it is possible to get a great looking piece of furniture for your home that has lifting ability in the: “Standard lift-chair” price range!
