Pride Lift Chairs
Pride Mobility is known for having the most reliable mobility scooters and powerchairs, but did you know Pride also offers lift chairs? Pride lift chairs are similar to a recliner, except they help the user stand up. You can now relax knowing you can still independently and easily get up from your Pride lift chair. Pride lift chairs not only have comfort and ease in mind, but their chairs are also aesthetically pleasing. Your Pride lift chair will fit right in with the rest of your home furnishings. The elderly, those with mobility issues, and even those with an injury can benefit from a Pride lift chair.
Lift Chair Sizes
Like most mobility devices, Pride Mobility lift chairs come in different sizes to accommodate all body sizes. This will allow the best comfort, as you can purchase the perfect size lift recliner. A smaller person doesn’t have to be engulfed in a too large lift chair and a larger person doesn’t have to feel confined to a small recliner.
Small Pride Lift Chairs
The small Pride lift chairs are best for those who are 5’4” tall and under. Small lift recliners typically have a seat height of around 17 to 18 inches from the ground to the seat, which is ideal for people in the 5'0" to 5' 5" range. This height allows for easier transitions when standing up or sitting down and ensures the feet are flat on the ground when sitting. The seat depth of the smaller Pride lift chairs is around 18”, making it a comfortable fit.
Medium Pride Lift Recliner
The medium-sized Pride lift recliner is best for people who are 5'4" to 5'10". With a seat height of about 18 to 19 inches, a seat depth of 20 to 21 inches, and a backrest height of 26 to 28 inches, these chairs offer a balance of comfort and support for people who are neither too short nor too tall.
Large Pride Lift Chairs
If you are taller, then you’ll want to consider a large Pride lift chair. These Pride lift recliners are made for those who are 5’11” or taller. With a taller seat height, depth, and higher headrest, as a taller user, you’ll really feel comfortable. No arching, leaning forward, stretching the chair, or slouching.
Weight Capacity
Pride Mobility lift chairs do have a weight capacity as well, so when looking for a lift chair, you’ll need to confirm the weight capacity of the chair. Most of the Pride Mobility lift chairs' weight capacity is 400 lbs, but some models have a higher range.
Pride Lift Chair Reclining Positions
Pride lift chairs are still a form of recliner, so they do have different reclining positions. Most recliners have a couple of reclining positions and they’ll “click” into place. That’s considered the position, so positions are generally upright, partial recline,TV recline, and full recline. With the Pride lift chairs, some of the recliners have reclining positions available and some can go beyond.
3-Position Lift Chair
The 3-position lift chair is a lift chair with 3 clickable positions. These positions are considered semi-recline. The 3-position lift chair positions are sit, recline, and lift. A 3-position chair does not recline flat, but can recline to partial recline and full recline. The 3-position lift chair is best for people who need basic lift assist and are looking for a simpler lift chair.
Infinite Position Lift Chair
The infinite position lift chair doesn’t require clicking into position. The infinite position lift chair can recline in infinite positions. This includes the backrest and the footrest. The backrest and footrest can be positioned independently, meaning if you want to sit upright but have the legs raised, you can. With the infinite position lift chair, you can customize how you want to recline. With the infinite position lift chair, you have total control of your comfort and relaxation. The infinite position lift chair gives you total flexibility, improves circulation, and relieves pressure.
