Rise and Recliners

A rise and recliner chair is designed specifically for those with mobility issues. Unlike a regular recliner, it has a built-in lift mechanism that gently raises the chair to assist the user in standing up safely and comfortably. This feature takes the strain off the knees, hips, and back, making it easier to get in and out of the chair.

Profiling beds are adjustable beds that allow you to raise or lower the head and foot sections independently. This feature is especially beneficial for those with medical conditions or disabilities that require specific positioning for comfort, pressure relief, or ease of getting in and out of bed. Profiling beds often come with additional features like built-in massage, adjustable firmness, and remote controls for effortless operation.

Absolutely! Many mobility furniture manufacturers offer compact models designed specifically for smaller rooms or apartments. These space-saving designs often include features like wall-hugger mechanisms that allow the furniture to remain close to the wall even when reclined, ensuring maximum space utilization.

With proper care and maintenance, high-quality mobility furniture can last for many years. Most reputable manufacturers offer warranties ranging from 2 to 5 years on the frame and mechanisms, and 1 year on the upholstery. Here at Solent Mobility Centre we believe in our products and therefore offer 10 year warranty on selected Rise and recliners and 7 years on out beds. However, the lifespan ultimately depends on factors like usage frequency, weight capacity, and adherence to the manufacturer's care instructions.

Absolutely! Many manufacturers offer a wide range of customisation options, from different sizes and weight capacities to various fabrics, colors, and additional features like heat and massage. Some even allow for bespoke modifications to accommodate specific mobility or medical requirements, ensuring a perfect fit for your unique needs.

Most mobility furniture is designed with easy cleaning and maintenance in mind. The upholstery is often removable and washable, and the frame can be wiped down with a damp cloth. Periodic checks and lubrication of moving parts are also recommended to ensure smooth operation.

Proper sizing is crucial for comfort and safety. Consider factors like your height, weight, and any specific mobility or medical requirements. Many retailers offer detailed sizing guides or even in-home consultations to ensure you select the perfect fit. It's also advisable to try out the furniture in person, if possible, to ensure a comfortable and supportive experience.

Yes, mobility furniture is designed to be relatively portable, especially when disassembled. Most manufacturers provide clear instructions on how to safely disassemble and reassemble their products, making it easier to move them from one location to another.
