Lift chairs are the most appropriate choice for people with limited mobility, which includes the elderly, disabled, people recovering from surgery, and those with frailty or balance issues. This chair can provide significant assistance to help users safely transition from sitting to standing, improving their independence and quality of life.

To use a lift chair to assist a person who has fallen, first ensure that they are not seriously injured. If this can be done safely, place the floor chair near them and help them move to take a seat in the chair, then use the hand control to activate the lift mechanism and assist them to stand. Note that it is important to provide support during this process.

Yes, most chair lifts rely on a power cord for operation. Our VOCIC lift chairs do not rely on a power cord and are operated through the use of a remote control. With the push of an up and down button, the user has full control of the floor lift, providing greater operational freedom and flexibility. This means that you can operate the stairlift conveniently from a distance.

VOCIC electric chair lifts are warranted for a period of one year from the date of delivery. The warranty has several key components including the motor, motorized actuator, plastic frame, hand control, and charger. Note that seat cushions and suction cups are not covered by the warranty. Warranty coverage guarantees that the chair's key functional components will be free from defects in materials and workmanship during the warranty period.

Electric chair lifts are recommended to be recharged approximately 3 hours per month for lift chairs that are used occasionally or in an emergency. Regular charging helps keep the battery healthy and ensures that the chair is ready to use when needed. Keeping the battery charged, even when used infrequently, prevents the battery from being completely drained and extends the overall life of the battery.

VOCIC's lift seat hand controls are designed to support approximately 8-10 lift operations when fully charged. A full charge of hand control typically takes about 3 hours. This ensures that the chair is always available when needed and provides reliable assistance by performing multiple operations on a single charge.

Yes, lift chairs are safe for the elderly. They are specifically designed to assist with standing and sitting safely, featuring smooth, controlled movements that reduce the risk of falls. Key safety features often include battery backups for power outages and stable, anti-tip designs. Proper adherence to manufacturer guidelines and regular maintenance are recommended to ensure ongoing safety.

The main difference between a lift chair and a recliner is their function. Lift chairs are equipped with a power unit that helps the user transition from a sitting to a standing position for those with mobility issues. Recliners are designed for comfort and feature reclining backrests with extendable footrests for relaxation, but they lack a lift function. Lift chairs are ideal for people who need assistance standing, while recliners are designed for comfort and relaxation.

To prevent your lift chair from sliding, consider placing non-slip pads or grips under the legs, using a rug with a non-slip backing, or using double-sided tape or Velcro for a more secure hold. Adjusting the balance of the floor chair or adding weight to the base can also help, especially on smooth surfaces like polished hardwood or tile. Choosing the method that best suits your floor type and mobility needs will ensure stability without damaging the floor.

Weighing only 30 pounds, our VOCIC lift chair features a foldable design with an adjustable backrest, easy assembly, a weight range of 330 pounds, and can be easily moved and folded front to back for storage, making it perfect for use at home or on the go. Lift chairs on the market typically weigh between 100 and 170 pounds, with larger ones weighing 200 pounds or more.

Lift chairs are designed to be very stable and generally do not tip over easily. They have a heavy base to maintain balance during operation and manufacturers adhere to strict safety standards, including stability testing. To ensure safety, follow the manufacturer's guidelines, don't exceed weight limits, and place the floor lift on a stable, level surface. Regular maintenance will keep the chair stable.
