What our Customers Say About Us
Types of Recliner Chairs We Provide
Electric Recliner Chairs
Electric recliner chairs use motorised mechanisms to recline smoothly at the push of a button. The electric motor provides all the movement with no physical effort required by you.
Ideal for users with limited arm strength, arthritis, or those who have mobility challenges. Electric recliners typically include multiple recline positions, allowing users to find perfect comfort angles from upright to fully reclined.

Why Choose a Recliner Chair
Mobility Benefits
01
Circulation
Elevating your legs improves blood flow, reduces swelling and prevents DVT (deep vein thrombosis) risk during extended periods of sitting.
02
Back Pain Relief
The adjustable backrest positioning option supports natural spine alignment. Many users report significant back pain reduction when using a recliner chair compared to static chairs.
03
Joint Support
Using the elevating footrest reduces pressure from knees and ankles. Particularly beneficial for arthritis sufferers and users who suffer from joint pain.
04
Breathing Comfort
Reclined positioning supports easier breathing for users with respiratory conditions. Some users with asthma or sleep apnoea report improved comfort in a reclined position.
05
Pressure Relief
For users spending extended time seated, adjustable positioning prevents pressure injuries and discomfort from prolonged sitting.
Other Benefits of Using a Recliner Chair at Home
Comfort & Relaxation
For Elderly Users Seeking a Recliner Chair
Elderly users face specific seating challenges: their reduced strength makes standing from a low chair difficult; joints can ache from poor positioning; and circulation suffers from extended sitting. Recliner chairs address these problems directly with no fuss.
Getting up from a chair is harder than it sounds. An electric recliner makes it easier; the riser gently lifts you to your feet so you can stand up safely, without straining or asking for help.
High-backed models support your whole back, neck, and head, something a regular armchair just does not do. If you live with arthritis, the heat setting can bring real relief. The massage function helps with circulation and lets you properly unwind.
For Disabled Users Seeking a Recliner Chair
Disability manifests in different mobility challenges, including pain, circulation issues, and positioning needs. Recliner chairs adapt to a disability rather than requiring the disability to adapt to furniture.
Riser recliners lift you gently to a standing position without any effort or assistance – no pushing, no asking for help. Bariatric options offer the same comfort and support for larger builds, and mobility recliners bring all accessibility features together in one chair, so you can sit, recline, or stand whenever you want, completely on your own terms.
Recliner Chair For Recovery
Post-surgery or post-injury recovery demands specific support: positioning flexibility, ease of movement and pain management. This is where recliners excel.
Adjustable positioning supports healing; an elevated position aids breathing for post-abdominal surgery and a reclined position supports back recovery. Heated functions ease post-operative pain. Motorised operation eliminates manual effort during recovery. Many physiotherapists recommend recliners during the recovery phase because positioning flexibility aids rehabilitation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do people need a riser recliner & what problems does it solve?
A riser recliner solves two distinct problems. The “rise” function helps people who struggle to stand up from a low chair unaided, often due to arthritis, joint pain, weak knees or hips, or fall risk; the chair gently lifts and tilts forward so standing requires far less effort or strain. The “recline” function supports comfort and positioning, helping with circulation, pressure relief and rest, which is often important during recovery from surgery or for people who spend long periods seated.
What is the difference between a riser recliner and a standard recliner chair?
A standard recliner tilts the backrest back for comfort and rest but offers no assistance with standing up or sitting down. A riser recliner adds a powered lift mechanism that gently tilts and raises the entire chair forward, helping the user to stand safely with minimal strain on the joints, knees or hips without needing a carer’s help or pushing up from the armrests. For anyone with arthritis, reduced leg strength, balance issues or mobility difficulties, this distinction makes a riser recliner a mobility aid rather than simply a comfort chair.
Is a riser recliner suitable for recovering from surgery?
Yes. After hip, knee or spinal surgery, sitting at the correct angle and being able to stand safely without bending or twisting matters for recovery. A riser recliner allows controlled, gradual positioning changes and supported standing, reducing strain on a healing joint or surgical site compared with a standard chair or sofa.
Can a riser recliner help with circulation, DVT or respiratory conditions?
Yes, elevating the legs in a riser recliner improves blood flow, reduces swelling and lowers the risk of DVT during extended periods of sitting. Reclined positioning also supports easier breathing for users with respiratory conditions such as asthma or COPD and adjustable positioning prevents pressure injuries for users spending long periods seated.
What weight can a riser recliner support?
Standard riser recliners at Adapt A Home support from 120kg up to 159kg depending on the model, with bariatric models like the Epoch Attollo supporting up to 254kg and the Epoch XXL engineered for up to 762kg. A free assessment confirms the right model for your weight, build and seating needs.
Are there riser recliners for smaller users or rooms with limited space?
Yes, riser recliners aren’t one-size-fits-all and petite and compact models are available for smaller-framed users and tighter rooms. Wall-hugging models recline while staying closer to the wall, reducing the clearance needed behind the chair, the free home assessment confirms the right seat depth, width and height for both the user and the room.
Is there a riser recliner for complex postural or neurological needs?
Yes, the Epoch tilt-in-space riser recliner is designed for users with complex postural, neurological or high-dependency needs, offering integrated pressure care, electric lift-up arms, lateral backrest support and a fully made-to-measure option. Adapt A Home also supplies dedicated neuro care chairs for children and adults with conditions requiring specialist seating support.
Do riser recliner chairs come with heat and massage?
Yes. Several models offer heat and massage options that help soothe muscle tension, ease arthritis pain and improve circulation. Chairs with adjustable intensity and programmes let you tailor the warmth and massage to your needs, with the Icon Essence among the models featuring a built-in adjustable function massage and heat pad.
How much does a riser recliner chair cost and is VAT relief available?
Riser recliner chairs at Adapt A Home range from entry-level models to fully bespoke, made-to-measure options for complex needs, so price varies depending on the model, features such as heat and massage, fabric or leather upholstery and weight capacity required. VAT relief is available for customers with a qualifying disability or long-term health condition. 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. Contact the team on 020 8191 3247 or visit the showroom in Potters Bar for current pricing and a no-obligation recommendation.
Can I try a riser recliner before buying and is a home assessment available?
Yes. Adapt A Home offers a free no-obligation home assessment where the team visits to assess your seating needs, room layout and mobility requirements before recommending the right model. You can also visit the Potters Bar showroom by appointment to try chairs in person before committing. Getting the seat height, depth and rise mechanism right for your specific needs is important and the assessment ensures you don’t pay for a chair that doesn’t work for you.
