I am a big guy; 350 pounds and waiting for bariatric surgery. I damaged my spine 9 months ago and the pain and weakness in my legs is profound.
I put off buying a lift chair for 9 months because of mixed reviews. I liked the look of this chair and it was everything I expected from the photos.
Pros - It was shipped in 3 days, and comes in just one big box with two parts. The bottom cushion and motor assembly are attached, so the only two things for assembly is to slide the back on until it clicks in place.
The second thing do is to plug in the transformer to your chair mechanism and make sure no wires will be pinched. I used cable ties to secure floppy wires.
For me it is very comfortable and fits my big frame. The remote is simple: Just two buttons - one is up to lift, and the other button is down to recline.
The motor is smooth and does not strain to lift me.
CONS- It is a big chair and took up most of my space for company and to recline you need a clear path behind the chair for it to extend.
I like the color, the comfort, the smoothness of the motor and the price. It does not have heat or massage but you can buy shiatsu chair cushions. I added a chair protector for $25 that fits it perfectly. To me it seems well made and is stable in all positions. Because I kept dropping the remote I added Velcro to it. TG
Easy to assemble but BIG
