What our customers say about us …
Not sure which bariatric chair you need?
Why buy a bariatric recliner chair?
Bariatric recliner lift chairs are designed to suit the needs of bigger, taller or wider individuals, allowing them to sit comfortably in seating built for their size of frame. They deliver comfort with enhanced functionality whilst offering more support adjustments than regular chairs available today.
These heavy duty bariatric chairs offer all the advantages of a standard riser recliner chair, but are manufactured for heavier, larger users. All components are upgraded to handle a much heavier load than a standard recliner lift chair.
These heavy duty recliner chairs can be custom made to your requirements, with upgraded leg rests that can handle 30st or more if required. With wider or longer seat dimensions as well as battery backup, pressure care cushions and level lift function options, allow a carer to be able to access daily hygiene tasks, without having to transfer the user out of the chair.

FAQs on Bariatric Riser Recliner Chairs
Why do bariatric users need a specialist riser recliner instead of a standard one?
Standard riser recliners aren’t built to safely support higher body weights or wider frames, which can compromise both comfort and safety over time. Bariatric riser recliners use reinforced steel frames, stronger motors and wider seating engineered specifically for higher weight capacities, reducing strain on the chair and the user and minimising pressure injury risk from prolonged sitting.
What is the heaviest weight a bariatric riser recliner can support?
The Epoch XXL supports up to 762kg, making it one of the highest weight-capacity riser recliners available in the UK, while the Epoch Attollo XL supports up to 254kg (40st) for users with high bariatric needs. Both are made to measure in Britain with fully customisable fabrics and support options.
Is there a bariatric riser recliner that can be made to measure?
Yes, all three bariatric models at Adapt A Home (Epoch Attollo, Epoch Attollo XL and Epoch XXL) are fully customisable and made to measure in Britain, with adjustable seat depth, width and leg rest options tailored to the user’s exact frame and postural needs. Contact the team to discuss your specific measurements and requirements.
Can a bariatric riser recliner help reduce pressure sores from prolonged sitting?
Yes, bariatric riser recliners from Adapt A Home can be fitted with pressure-care cushions and integrated pressure relief surfaces, distributing body weight more evenly across the seat to reduce the risk of pressure sores during extended sitting. The tilt-in-space function on models like the Epoch Attollo allows regular repositioning without needing to transfer out of the chair.
Can a bariatric riser recliner help with circulation and leg swelling?
Yes, elevating the legs in a riser recliner improves blood flow and reduces swelling in the ankles and lower legs, which is particularly common in bariatric users who spend extended periods seated. The tilt-in-space and leg rest functions on models like the Epoch Attollo allow precise positioning to maximise circulation and pressure relief.
Can a bariatric riser recliner help a carer with hygiene tasks?
Yes. Bariatric riser recliners can be fitted with a horizontal (level-lift) function seat that raises and tilts the chair so a carer can carry out daily hygiene tasks without transferring the user out of the seat. Combined with pressure-care cushions, this supports safer care for higher-dependency users.
Does a bariatric riser recliner reduce the risk of carer back injury?
Yes, manually assisting a bariatric user to stand or reposition is one of the highest-risk manual handling tasks for carers. The powered rise, level-lift and tilt-in-space functions on Adapt A Home’s bariatric chairs significantly reduce or eliminate the need for manual lifting, protecting both the carer and the user during daily care.
Are bariatric riser recliners available with waterproof or easy-clean upholstery?
Yes, bariatric riser recliners from Adapt A Home are available in a choice of fabric or leather upholstery, including easy-clean and stain-resistant options suitable for higher-dependency care environments. Contact the team to discuss fabric options and hygiene-grade upholstery for your specific needs.
Do bariatric riser recliners qualify for VAT relief in the UK?
Yes, bariatric riser recliners qualify for VAT relief for customers with a qualifying disability or long-term health condition, saving 20% on the purchase price. VAT is removed automatically at checkout when you select “I am VAT exempt”, simply add your medical details at the point of purchase and no doctor’s letter is required.
How do I know which bariatric riser recliner is right for my needs?
The right model depends on your weight, frame, postural support needs and care requirements, the Epoch Attollo XL suits most high-weight users up to 254kg, while the Epoch XXL is for extreme bariatric needs up to 762kg and the Epoch Attollo adds tilt-in-space and integrated pressure care for complex postural needs.
