A friend of mine recently started looking into purchasing some items to assist her husband in being more comfortable around the house as he ages. She’s a little bit overwhelmed by the process because there are so many decisions to make about what to buy.

Right now she’s trying to choose among the different lift chair recliners that exist. I have been doing some research to make the task easier for her. I’ve learned that there are three different types of lift chairs based on the incline positions that they allow:

  1. 2-incline lift chairs. These chairs only offer two positions – one upright and one reclined. This is good for people who are fairly comfortable in either of these basic positions.
  2. 3-incline chairs. These chairs offer an additional option which allows the chair to also recline almost completely. This is good if you hope to sleep in the chair at times.
  3. Infinite position lift chairs. These chairs offer more positions because the legs and the back of the chair can each be moved separately. If you have a lot of trouble getting comfortable then you’ll want the many options offered by this type of chair.

Hopefully this information will make it easier for my friend to choose the right type of chair for her husband. Now I need to go look into stair lifts for her!
