When shopping for a lift chair, you’ll often come across terms like “2-position,” “3-position,” or “infinite position.” But what exactly does “Enhanced” 3-position mean—and how is it different from a standard 3-position chair?
Let’s break it down in simple terms so you can choose the right level of comfort and support for your needs.
What is a 3-Position Lift Chair?
A standard 3-position lift chair reclines to about 135 to 140 degrees. It’s ideal for:
-
Relaxing and reading
-
Watching TV
-
Light napping
These chairs allow for partially reclined positions and lift to help you stand safely, but they don’t go fully flat.
What Makes It “Enhanced”?
Enhanced 3-position chairs are an upgrade from the standard 3-position model. Here's what sets them apart:
-
More Recline: They offer a deeper recline than traditional 3-position chairs, getting closer to a lay-flat position—though not fully horizontal.
-
Better Leg Elevation: Your feet and legs lift higher, improving circulation and relieving pressure.
-
Improved Comfort: The motion is smoother and provides more ergonomic support for extended periods of sitting or resting.
It’s a sweet spot between a basic recliner and a more advanced infinite-position chair.
Who Is It For?
An Enhanced 3-position chair is great for people who:
-
Want a deep recline but don’t need full zero-gravity or Trendelenburg positioning
-
Prefer simple controls without too many buttons
-
Spend a lot of time seated and want better pressure relief and support
It’s also ideal for caregivers looking for a dependable, easy-to-use recliner that still delivers comfort and versatility.
In a Nutshell
Think of Enhanced 3-Position as “3-position, but better.” You get a deeper recline, more leg lift, and improved comfort—all while keeping things simple.
