Lift chairs – Intelligent comfort

Who doesn't know it? After a long day, we look forward to finally sitting down on the couch or in the chair and enjoying the evening. We turn on the TV or read a book before going to bed. But many of our customers have special demands and needs. This also includes things as seemingly trivial as a chair.

Not everyone is fortunate enough to get into and out of a chair without problems. Often, this involves great effort or even requires help from other people. Of course, that is not always possible. Besides sitting and standing up, the quality of the chair is also an important factor. Often, people sit in almost antique chairs that are sometimes several decades old. In our modern world, we would probably describe that as “vintage” or traditionally classic. But let's be honest. These chairs were not necessarily designed with ergonomics and functionality in mind.

The consequences can be severe both in the short term and in the long run. Back damage and pain are common complaints among our customers. The solution to all these problems is a completely new type of chair. We are proud to present our lift chairs to you.

What exactly is a lift chair? Well, the answer is actually quite simple. At first glance, a lift chair looks like a completely normal armchair, and that is intentional. It is meant to blend seamlessly into the surroundings and not stand out. Inside, a lift chair is equipped with motors that can change the surfaces of the chair according to preference. Changing means, in this case, manipulating the angle and height so that the user can get into and out of the chair as easily as possible. The motors of the lift chair can be controlled with a small and simple remote control.

Depending on the model, the chair allows for different positions, but all help the user to stand up comfortably without much effort. Let's illustrate this with the example of the TOPRO Bologna, one of our top models. Both for standing up and sitting down, the lift chair moves upward and tilts slightly forward. The chair thus offers you a comfortable starting position or gently pushes you out of the chair. A stable frame on the floor ensures the necessary safety.

Another popular setting is the reclining position. In this position, the backrest and footrest shift so that the user can lie horizontally. Lift chairs are adjustable in many ways. Ultimately, it depends on the model when it comes to adjustment options.

Of course, the mobility of a lift chair is not the only criterion that defines this product class. A comfortable chair also includes high-quality material and ergonomics. After all, it shouldn't pinch at every corner. Many of our lift chairs are therefore equipped with cushions that allow for an even more pleasant sitting and lying position. Additionally, the lift chairs are made of fire-resistant material. This is a great safety feature, but it should not encourage the user to handle cigarettes or similar carelessly.

In addition to the lift chairs we present in our online shop, you can find practical accessories for your TOPRO chair. We offer extra cushions, for example for the head or a lumbar cushion. Practical armrest covers protect your chair from unwanted mishaps. A glass of tea is often spilled on armrests.

Now that we have laid the foundation for the topic of "lift chairs," we would like to take a closer look at some of our products that you can find here in the online shop. The Norwegian manufacturer TOPRO enters the Bologna and Verona models, and Medtrade offers its own version of a lift chair.

Saljol Relax and Lift Chairs

With the electric TV, reclining, and lift chairs from Saljol, you can stand up safely and effortlessly. All lift chairs have lumbar support. The seat depth and headrest can be adjusted. This allows for comfortable and ergonomically correct sitting. The remote control for the chairs attaches with a magnet to the headrest and the side panel.

Electric Recliners and Lift Chairs: How They Help You

As you age, muscle strength in the legs can decrease. This can make standing up and sitting down in a conventional chair difficult or even pose a risk of injury.

With a chair with seat elevation, you can avoid the following:

• At some point, you no longer have strength in your legs and simply collapse into your chair.
• To get up from the chair, you have to pull yourself up on a table or another piece of furniture.
• You need the help of your partner or a close person to get up from the chair.

In these situations, you not only strain your spine enormously but also increase the risk of falling. When you pull yourself up on furniture, it can tip over, and when you let yourself fall into the chair, you can easily miss or slip off the chair or armchair.

A chair with lying and standing functions offers the ideal support here. It brings you exactly into the right position from which you can get up and sit down more easily. You reach the standing, sitting, or lying position without much effort and with a lower risk of falling.

TOPRO Bologna

The Bologna lift chair from the Norwegian manufacturer TOPRO is an absolute top product and is especially aimed at customers who value quality and technology. With this product, TOPRO proves that they are not only one of the market leaders for rollators. The decades of experience also show in the development of lift chairs.

The Bologna is equipped with four motors that can move the chair into different positions. Besides the tilt function for standing up and sitting down, the armrests can also be adjusted in height. Furthermore, the lift chair can be brought into a lying position. On our product website, you will find a practical video that introduces you to the Bologna. Seeing is understanding! Take the time to look at the pictures and the video.

The chair is controlled by the intuitive remote control. Thanks to the color scale, you can easily identify the different positions. Additionally, the Bologna has an emergency system. It is battery-powered and ensures that you can still get out of the chair in case of a power outage or similar.

Another practical feature is located on the underside of the lift chair, where you will find both the sturdy frame of the Bologna and four casters. Thanks to these casters, a helper can push it without much effort, or the chair can generally be easily moved to another location. The frame on which the Bologna otherwise rests provides the necessary stability while the chair is in various positions.

In terms of comfort, with the Bologna you simply get one of the best products, both in our online shop and on the market. The basic equipment includes a pillow, and optionally a lumbar cushion with memory function or armrest covers are available. The Bologna lift chair is available in our store in three different colors. You can choose between a strong red, a subtle brown, and a pleasant cream color.

The Bologna lift chair is the Ferrari in its category. As a user, you get one of the most comfortable and cozy chairs available on the market. We give the Bologna a clear recommendation. You can't go wrong here.

TOPRO Verona

The TOPRO Verona is the slightly stripped-down version of the Bologna, but the lift chair is no less recommendable or convincing. It offers slightly fewer features than its big brother. The Verona is equipped with two motors that provide both the tilt position for standing up and sitting down, as well as the reclining position for resting. The also color-coded remote control allows you to easily select the positions.

The Verona is also made of fire-resistant material and offers you an additional level of safety. The integrated emergency system also contributes to this. A battery pack allows the user a one-time adjustment of the lift chair. If the power fails, you can still get into the comfortable standing position.

As with the Bologna, the Verona also comes with a head pillow. Additionally, you can order a lumbar pillow with memory function or equip the chair with armrest covers.

If you ever want to move the chair, for example to vacuum, you can do so without any problems. The lift chair has small wheels on the bottom that allow the chair to be moved, but it should be mentioned that these wheels are not intended for transporting people.

The Verona is also available in different colors. You can choose between "caramel", "mocca", and "sand". This way, you can select the color that best suits you and your surroundings.

The Verona lift chair is the more affordable alternative to the TOPRO Bologna, but don't be fooled. Although the Verona has fewer features, it still meets all the demands a user can have for a lift chair. You get an absolutely high-quality and comfortable supporter for everyday life.
