About Riser Recliner Chairs
What exactly is a riser recliner chair?
A riser recliner chair is an advanced armchair designed to offer both reclining comfort and safe assistance for standing. It allows you to smoothly recline for relaxation and gently lifts you forward and upwards to a standing position, reducing strain and improving mobility. Unlike standard recliners, its “rise” function provides crucial support for those who find it difficult to get in or out of a chair unaided.
What are the main health benefits of a riser recliner?
Riser recliners offer numerous health benefits, including improved circulation (by elevating legs, often above the heart, reducing swelling/oedema), pressure relief (by distributing body weight evenly, preventing pressure sores), reduced strain on joints (knees, hips, back) during standing and sitting, and enhanced independence.
How do your chair mechanisms work?
We offer three main mechanisms:
- Standard Recline: Synchronised movement of back and leg rest with a single motor for effortless recline and rise.
- Single Tilt-in-Space: The entire chair tilts, maintaining your body’s posture, offering a ‘Zero Gravity’ feel for superior pressure distribution and circulation benefits.
- Dual Motor: Independent control of the backrest and leg rest, allowing for precise, versatile positioning for ultimate customisation of comfort.
What's the difference between a single motor and a dual motor mechanism?
A single motor mechanism typically controls the backrest and leg rest together. A dual motor mechanism provides independent control, allowing you to adjust the backrest and leg rest separately for more precise positioning and customisation of comfort.
Customisation & Sizing
Can I customise my Motion Furniture chair?
Absolutely! Customisation is at the heart of our offering. You can choose your chair’s base model (such as the model you are currently viewing), select from a wide array of premium fabrics and leathers, choose your preferred mechanism, and even specify additional features like heat, massage, or adjustable headrests.
How do I know which size chair is right for me?
Choosing the correct size is crucial for comfort and support. Our chairs are available in both standard and compact sizes. We recommend reviewing the specific dimensions listed on each chair page and comparing them with your own measurements.
What fabric options do you offer?
We offer a diverse selection of high-quality upholstery, including Classic Chenille, Supremo Faux Leather, advanced Simulation Leathers (like Taurus and Aries), and luxurious Real Leathers (like Florence and Naples). Each offers unique textures, durability, and aesthetic qualities.

Mechanism Options
The Chepstow is available with the following motor options..
Mechanism: A single motor controls both the leg rest elevation and the chair’s overall recline.
Movement: The leg rest rises, and the entire seating unit (seat and back) tilts back while maintaining a constant 90-degree angle between the seat and the backrest.
Benefits: Provides gentle pressure redistribution and consistent postural support, ideal for users needing a stable and straightforward recline.
Mechanism: Two motors enable completely independent operation of the backrest and leg rest.
Movement: The backrest reclines separately from the leg rest elevation, allowing for diverse positions, from sitting upright with raised legs to a fully reclined, flat-like position.
Benefits: Provides maximum versatility, enabling users to independently adjust their back and leg positions for ultimate relaxation and to find their perfect comfort angle.
Mechanism: Two motors allow for independent control: one for the backrest and another for the leg rest and the chair’s overall tilt-in-space movement.
Movement: Offers a wide range of sitting and resting positions, as the backrest can move independently of the leg rest, while the tilt-in-space function still maintains a constant 90-degree back angle during the tilt.
Benefits: Delivers enhanced adjustability for personalised comfort and effective pressure redistribution across the body, offering greater flexibility than a single motor system.

Variations & Alterations
The Grosmont Riser Recliner truly comes alive through its remarkable customisability, allowing you to shape it into a chair that mirrors the warmth and rhythm of your South Wales home—whether that’s a subtle nod to the rolling valleys or a bold statement of personal comfort.
For the cushions, we fine-tune the plumpness to your preference, adjusting the filling for just the right firmness: opt for softer, enveloping layers that cradle like a gentle embrace after a long day in Swansea, or firmer support that holds you steady during Yate’s winter evenings by the fire.
Complement it all with one of three headrest styles: the Lateral Flow for a soothing neck wrap, the Letterbox for its understated pillow-like subtlety, or the Waterfall for cascading lumbar waves that ease your entire posture.
For larger frames up to 25 stone, we reinforce thoughtfully, ensuring stability without sacrificing the chair’s inviting silhouette. Furthermore, with larger frames we offer an enhanced lift solution with the Variable Angle Lift (VAL). This unique feature lets you adjust the exact angle of the forward tilt, offering a customised transition from sitting to standing. For users with specific hip or knee joint concerns, the ability to choose a shallower or deeper tilt ensures maximum safety and reduces strain, making every rise an effortless, tailored experience.
Simply share your vision, and we will bring it to life with meticulous care—every stitch and curve whispering personalised luxury.
