Which Mobility Furniture is Right for You?

 

Not all mobility furniture is the same and choosing the right option depends on how you plan to use it day-to-day. Some chairs are designed to support safer standing and sitting, while others focus on comfort, posture support and everyday living.

​

At Fen Mobility Centre, we supply a wide range of mobility furniture including rise and recline chairs, supportive seating and traditional fireside chairs. We also offer a selection of British-made chairs and products from trusted family-owned manufacturers, with optional upgrades such as heat and massage for added comfort and relaxation.

​

Below are the most popular mobility furniture options we supply, each designed for different needs and lifestyles.

 

Rise & Recline Chairs

Rise and recline chairs are ideal if you want comfort and support with added assistance when standing up or sitting down. They use a smooth motorised function to help reduce strain on the knees, hips and back.

They’re a great choice if you want a chair that improves comfort, independence and confidence at home.

 

Single Motor Rise & Recline Chairs

Single motor rise and recline chairs offer a simple and supportive solution, operating the footrest and backrest together in one smooth movement. They’re easy to use and a popular option for everyday comfort.

They’re ideal if you want a reliable chair with straightforward controls and excellent value.

 

Dual Motor Rise & Recline Chairs

Dual motor rise and recline chairs allow the footrest and backrest to move independently, giving you more flexibility in finding the perfect seated or reclined position. This is especially helpful if you spend longer periods sitting or need more tailored comfort.

They’re a strong option if you want greater control, improved positioning and extra comfort throughout the day.

 

Triple Motor Rise & Recline Chairs

Triple motor rise and recline chairs offer enhanced comfort and positioning by providing more adjustment than standard dual motor models. They are ideal for users who want better posture support, smoother reclining and a wider range of seating positions.

They’re a great choice if you need extra comfort for longer periods and want more precise control over how the chair supports your body.

 

Quad Motor Rise & Recline Chairs

Quad motor rise and recline chairs provide the highest level of positioning and support, offering advanced adjustment across multiple areas of the chair. This makes them an excellent option for users who need extra comfort, tailored seating positions and improved pressure relief throughout the day.

They’re ideal if you want the most flexible rise and recline chair for long-term comfort, independence and support at home.

 

Fireside Chairs

Fireside chairs are designed for comfort, support and traditional styling, making them a popular choice for everyday seating at home. They often offer a higher seat position, supportive arms and a firmer base to help with sitting and standing.

They’re ideal if you want a supportive chair without powered features, but still need comfort and stability.

 

What to Consider Before Buying Mobility Furniture

​

Choosing the right chair isn’t just about appearance — it’s about comfort, support and making sure it suits your routine. Here are a few important things to think about:

 

Where you’ll use it (living room, bedroom, your main everyday chair)

How often you’ll use it (occasional use, daily use, long-term comfort)

Seat height and depth (for posture, comfort and standing ease)

Riser function needs (help standing up safely and comfortably)

Comfort & support (cushioning, posture, arm support, headrest)

Extra features (heat and massage options for added comfort)

Chair size and fit (room space, doorway access, positioning)

Fabric choice (durability, wipe-clean options, style preferences)

User weight capacity (and whether a stronger frame is needed)
