Electric Riser Recliner Features & Options

Nothing epitomises ‘The Home of Relaxation’ more than the superb range of Sherborne Electric Care Recliners.

This is because we recognise that, for people who have difficulty getting in and out of conventional furniture, to have the opportunity to possess their very own Riser Recliner can make a huge difference to their freedom and quality of life.

So on these website pages you can view no less than 168 different models, all with fully lifting and fully reclining actions.

All 15 designs offer the choice of the finest Tri-motor (Cloud Comfort), Dual Motor and Single Motor mechanisms and 13 of these also offer a choice of four sizes.

Choose the optional LUMBAR ADJUSTMENT to enable you to reach your most comfortable back position.

On the Beaumont, Comfi-sit, Leyburn and Roma designs you can also choose the optional HEAD TILT which allows you to support your head how you choose, whether watching TV or just relaxing (on Tri-motor (Cloud Comfort) action, either this or the optional LUMBAR ADJUSTMENT available).

For added reassurance all Electric Care Recliners meet British Standard BS 8474 for safety, strength, stability and durability.

Optional Lumbar Support

Choose this additional feature to enhance your comfort even further.

Using two extra buttons on the handset, you can increase and reduce the level of lumbar (lower back) support to reach the most comfortable position for you.

This option is available at extra cost on all Sherborne Riser Recliners.

Optional Head Tilt – Beaumont, Comfi-sit, Leyburn and Roma designs

An additional two buttons allow you to move the head section independently to enable you to support your head how you choose, whether watching TV or just relaxing.

Quick-release handset

A quick-release handset is fitted as standard to prevent unauthorised use.

Spring-loaded footrest

All designs are fitted with a spring-loaded footrest to reduce the risk of accidental entrapment under the footrest.

Handset recessed button design

All buttons are recessed within the handset to reduce the possibility of inadvertent movement of the action by accidental pressure.

Single-use emergency back-up

This allows one emergency operation of the Chair, returning it to the sitting position (batteries must be replaced after use).

Multi-use battery back-up

For an additional cost this can be fitted to ensure continued use of the Recliner up to approximately 10-15 complete cycles of the action in the event of power failure. Highly recommended.

LED power indicator

The transformer displays a green LED power light to show that power is reaching the Recliner.

Backlit handset

All handset buttons light up when operated for ease of use even in the dark.

Removable clip

Each handset is fitted with a useful clip which can be removed if required.

Side pocket for right- or left-handed use

For your convenience we fit a generous side pocket on all Electric Care Recliners and this and the handset can also be specified for left-handed use if you so wish.

Removable backs

All 168 models are supplied with removable backs to make the task of delivering into your home so much easier.

Castors or Glides

All models are fitted with four castors for ease of movement – front castors then lift away to ensure stability in raised positions. Alternatively, four glides can now be fitted for use on solid flooring.

The Single Motor, Dual Motor and Tri Motor actions all lift and tilt the Recliner forwards so that getting in and out is the easiest thing imaginable.

All handsets feature a useful clip and are backlit for use in the dark.

The smooth and easy Single Motor action uses the three-button handset, which enables the footrest to be fully raised before the back starts reclining. It also allows the sleeping position to be reached (less reclined than on Dual Motor designs) from a starting position 20cm (8″) from the wall. The ‘intelligent’ third button then returns you to the sitting position.

Using the five-button handset, the sophisticated Dual Motor mechanism enables you to control the backrest and footrest independently to reach the exact position you want including a near-horizontal full sleeping position (needs a 38cm (15″) gap from the wall).

The versatile Tri-Motor Cloud Comfort action also allows independent movement of the backrest and footrest to reach your desired position. Then the third motor enables you to tilt the Recliner when sitting or reclined to relieve the stresses on your body for that extra dimension of comfort you deserve (needs a 46cm (18″) gap from the wall).

Using the ‘intelligent’ reset button you can then easily return both the backrest and the footrest to the sitting position.
