We got this chair roughly 4 months ago. Was super simple to put together, took 30 minutes I believe. My father in law is completely unable to walk on his own and we only had his wheelchair to spend time on during the day and it was wildly uncomfortable for him. He isnt allowed to do transfers or stand by himself whatsoever and he would do so constantly when his wheelchair was his only chair in his room. He immediately stopped trying to transfer back into bed because he was so much more comfortable. The lift feature on the chair is extremely helpful with his physical therapy exercises and with standing him up or cleaning him up. He is so comfortable in this chair that hes in for anywhere from 12 to 16 hours in a day that he sleeps harder in his chair than he does in his own bed, to the point where we had to buy new pillows to mimic the chair as much as possible when hes in bed, The cushions have yet to sink in from his constant use. He loves the massage and heating feature when hes not feeling great. The upholstery is super easy to clean and doesnt smell even after repeated, long usage. A few. ons, though. About 2 months in, the lift and recline feature started creaking when in motion, Each creak feels unstable and makes the chair almost rock in a way. I worry my father in law will try to use the lift feature and the chair will collapse. The massage remote is getting extremely annoying with the problems its having. One day, we woke up to the entire massage intensity button just missing completely. Theres not even a tab in there that can be pressed, its just an empty hole. The remote cord got wrapped around the lift mechanism one day and split in half. I was able to repair it but its annoying for it to happen anyway, and now weve lost a few inches of cord due to it being so mangled. Just a bummer.
Great chair but some mechanical concerns
