What Is a Rise Recliner Chair?
A rise recliner chair (sometimes called a riser recliner) is a specially designed armchair that helps you stand up or sit down more safely and easily. With just the touch of a button, the chair smoothly tilts and lifts you into a standing position—or gently lowers you back into a seated one.
These chairs are ideal if you:
-
Have difficulty standing from a seated position
-
Need to rest your legs or recline comfortably
-
Want to maintain independence at home
They’re available in a wide range of styles and prices depending on features, materials, and size. Let’s explore how much they typically cost and what to look for.

What Affects the Cost of a Rise Recliner?
There are a few key factors that influence the price of a riser recliner chair:
1. Single or Dual Motor
-
Single-motor chairs move the back and leg sections together.
-
Dual-motor chairs allow you to adjust the backrest and footrest independently for greater comfort and positioning.
2. Size & Fit
The right chair size is crucial for support. Chairs come in petite, standard, and bariatric sizes. Some models can be tailored to your measurements for optimal comfort.
3. Material & Upholstery
Fabric, faux leather, or real leather options are available. Waterproof and wipe-clean fabrics may cost more but are ideal for care environments.
4. Additional Features
Chairs may also include:
-
Heat and massage options
-
Pressure-relief cushions
-
Wooden knuckles for easier grip
-
Side pockets for storage
-
Castors for easier movement
The more features a chair has, the higher the price—though these extras often improve comfort and convenience significantly.
