How to Find the Best Recliner Chair for Elderly People

Older adults commonly have mobility requirements, which often results in the process of performing daily tasks becoming uncomfortable and even painful. Getting up and down from a lounge chair is a key example of an otherwise normal activity that gets more difficult with age. Muscle strains or aches and pains can make it particularly hard to rise and recline in the lounge – as most lounge or living room chairs are softer and designed for comfort.

But there is no need to worry, older adults can use their living room and lounge furniture with total peace of mind by purchasing a manual or electric riser recliner chair. But what features are best when you are looking for a recliner chair specifically for older adults?

Well, you should consider the following as overall factors before buying your new recliner chair:

• Size and weight capacity: Recliner chairs take up a lot of space, due to the room it takes to help you move from a fully seated to a standing position. The manual or electronic lifting mechanism is also very bulky and cumbersome. As a result, the space that your chair takes up is of prime concern. Maximum weight capacity is another consideration, but almost every model you can buy is suitable for people weighing up to 20 st – often more.
• Fabric: Even a small amount of customisation can help to subtly weave the appearance of your new chair into your current living room. You can relax if you are
  picky in terms of style, as there are plenty of fabrics and patterns to choose from – all of which will make it simple to blend your chair in with your existing furniture. Leather riser recliner chairs are available too. 
• Functionality: You could get a dual motor riser recliner to effortlessly lift yourself, as well as to control both the back and footrest independently – or perhaps you would prefer a simple manual mechanism? The way you would prefer to sit, move and operate the chair is a chief consideration.
• Accessories: Want a remote control to let you move the mechanism at the t
  ouch of a button? Maybe some side pockets? There are many potential accessories available, such as side tables and extra back supports. Finishes and accessories are big considerations – and many are ideal for older adults.
• Back type: Several types of backs offer varying degrees of support, the best one for older adults depends on your specific mobility requirements. For example, a waterfall back has a cascading array of soft cushions that still provide ample support, so they are good for older adults.
