Understanding Lift Assist Chair Positions

There are four types of lift chair recliners, all of which vary in their ability to recline to different positions. These include two position, three position, infinite position, and zero-gravity lift chairs. Please remember when you are selecting your lift chair that the position refers to how far back the chair reclines, but you can still adjust to any point between the upright position and the maximum recline capabilities of your chair.

Two Position Lift Assist Chairs

2 position lift chair recliners provide users with the mechanical lift function and reclines to an approximate 45-degree position. There chairs are perfect for those who want to relax in their living room and enjoy the convenience of an extra boost when stitting and standing.  Please note that these chairs are able to recline to anywhere in between the upright and reclined position.

Three Position Lift Assist Chairs

3 position lift and recline chairs support users when sitting down, help them to stand, and also adjust to a "full recline" to provide a more relaxing position. The back of the chair moves with the footrest to offer you the added comfort of leg support while you are reclined. Three position lift chairs are popular for a reason; they provide the user with great features at a price that’s affordable.

Infinite Position Lift Assist Chairs

It also has individual motors for both the back and the footrest, so you can adjust each part of the chair seperately in order to find the most comfortable position.  This chair is great for those who are looking for top-of-the-line features and chair they can sleep in.
