Armchair

On manual models, you operate the leg rest by hand using a side lever or by pushing on the backrest. Electric versions work with a motor and a button: the recline of the backrest and the extension of the footrest are continuously adjustable, allowing you to find the exact desired position. The manual model remains more economical, while the electric model provides appreciable progressive adjustment comfort for long sitting sessions.

Lift chairs are equipped with a motor that tilts the seat forward and upward. The mechanism supports the person to a nearly standing position, which reduces strain on the knees and back when getting up. This is an aid designed for people with reduced mobility or those who have difficulty getting up. In-store, our advisors can let you test the movement to ensure it suits the user's build.

That depends on the mechanism. Two-motor models separate the backrest and leg rest, which allows for a wide range of motion from an upright sitting position to a recline close to lying down, useful for napping. Single-motor or manual versions generally offer two to three fixed positions. For a more relaxed TV viewing experience, look at models that recline the torso further back.

The selection includes fabric, microfibre, and leather-look coverings depending on the model. Fabric remains warm and easy to live with, microfibre cleans with a wipe, and leather or faux leather provides a more sophisticated look. Some of the colours are visible on the website, but the full range of available materials and shades can be discovered in store or by phone with an advisor.

Yes, these are seats designed for regular relaxation, in front of the television or for reading. The high-density foam padding and lumbar support of the backrest limit the sensation of sinking over time. On recliner chairs, the leg rest relieves circulation by elevating the calves. For lasting comfort, it is better to choose a seat whose width and height correspond to your build.

Consider the width of the chair when closed, but also the clearance needed once the backrest is reclined and the leg rest is extended. On recliner models, you often need to allow about twenty centimetres behind the backrest and the same in front of the seat. Some wall-hugging versions move closer to the wall when opening, saving space in narrower rooms. Precise dimensions are indicated on each product sheet.

Yes, beyond recliners, the range includes convertible chairs that fold out into an extra bed and ottomans that serve as footrests or additional seating. Convertible chairs are handy for an occasional guest. For more regular sleeping arrangements, opt for a sofa or bench designed for this purpose, with a thicker mattress.
