Lift chairs can make everyday life easier by combining comfort with independence. In this Lift Chairs Help Center, you’ll find helpful information, answers to frequently asked questions, and tips for choosing and caring for a lift chair.
Lift chairs are helpful for anyone who has difficulty standing from a seated position, such as people recovering from surgery, managing mobility challenges, or simply wanting added comfort and safety at home.
Most models are available in multiple fabrics and colors. You’ll find options like durable performance fabrics in grey or brown, plush finishes in mushroom or walnut, and premium looks in shades like calypso, sterling, and slate. Choosing a fabric often comes down to lifestyle and style preferences.
It depends on how you’ll use your chair. For example, the VivaLift Metro 2 is a simple, everyday option, while the Radiance and Ultra models include advanced comfort features. Golden chairs like the Cloud+ provide luxury cushioning and specialized positioning. Our team can help guide you through the differences so you feel confident in your choice.
Heated/massage lift chairs, like the VivaLift Radiance, Ultra, or Golden Cloud+, include built-in features to improve comfort and circulation. These extras can make a difference for long periods of sitting or for added relaxation at home.
