Best Lift Chairs of 2025

A good lift chair isn’t just a recliner; it’s freedom. If you or a loved one needs a little extra help getting in and out of a chair, a power lift recliner can make all the difference. So, if you're dealing with mobility challenges, recovering from surgery, or just want a more comfortable way to relax, the best recliner with lift can provide the support you’re looking for.

We’ve rounded up the best lift chairs of 2025, all designed for comfort, durability, and ease of use. Let’s dive in!

 

 

What to Look for in a Lift Chair

Before we get to the top lift recliner chairs, here’s what to keep in mind when shopping for one:

✔ Size & Fit: Recliners that lift come in different sizes, so getting the right fit is crucial. A recliner that’s too big or too small can be uncomfortable and ineffective. Consider seat width, depth, and height to match the user’s body type.

✔ Recline Positions: Some chairs offer basic reclining, while others have multiple positions, including zero gravity and Trendelenburg (which elevates the legs above the heart for circulation benefits).

✔ Fabric & Style: Modern lift chairs come in a range of stylish fabrics to fit your home’s aesthetic.

✔ Features & Customization: Think about whether you need heat, massage, lumbar support, or an extended footrest.

✔ Ease of Use: Intuitive remote controls, smooth lift mechanisms, and battery backup systems (in case of power outages) are important for reliability.

One of the most common questions we hear is, “How do I know if a lift chair will fit me?” The answer? It depends on height, weight, and personal comfort preference.

Here’s a quick guide to finding the right fit:

• Seat Width & Depth: Ensure the seat isn’t too narrow or too deep. You should be able to sit comfortably with your feet flat on the ground and your back fully supported.

• Weight Capacity: Lift chairs come with weight limits, so check specifications to ensure proper support.

• Recline Angle & Leg Support: If you’re on the taller side, you might need an extended footrest for full support.
