Pride Southwold Lift Chair

Description

The Pride Southwold single motor lift chair operates the backrest and footrest at the same time, using a singular motor design. The tilt-in-space enables higher leg elevation (ankles above hips) for improved circulation. When the tilt is in operation, there is no friction or shear as the seat-to-back angle remains constant. Pride teamed up with a UK Manufacturer to bring you a range of highly adaptable chairs with that classic, unmistakable British quality. There is a LED control system which is Simple and easy to use; the LED control system comes as standard with all Hudson range lift chairs. there is a weight capacity of 20 stone, and it is available in 3 stunning colours.

The Hudson Range was named after one of our longest-serving external sales reps Guy Hudson. Each type of chair has been named on behalf of Guy’s favourite places to visit. Guy sadly passed away in September 2015 from a rare form of cancer. Guy and his family were supported by ‘AMMF’, the UK’s only Cholangiocarcinoma Charity.

Simple, easy-to-use control systems. Each of our lift chairs comes with a simple, easy-to-use control system. Each control has light-emitting LED buttons and intelligent technology, which automatically switches the chair off after 20 seconds of being stationary. The Pride Southwold lift chair is available in three backrest supports; lumbar, lateral and waterfall. In addition, choose from three standard fabrics mocha, praline and french grey.

More fabrics are available on made-to-order.

Why single or double motor

Single motor chairs

A single-motor riser recliner chair is where one motor controls all of the electric functions on the chair. For example, the backrest, footrest and riser functions are all operated through a single set of buttons. The chair can be put into a fully reclined position with the backrest reclined and the footrest raised, all by pressing the recline button. Next, the chair moves into a raised sit-to-stand position by pressing the rise button. The backrest will rise while the footrest drops, and then the whole chair will rise, all through that single motor.

Single-motor rise and recline chairs are less expensive than dual-motor riser chairs. This is because the single motor operation and simplistic controls are less costly to produce and, as a result, are less expensive to buy.

Dual motor chairs

As the name suggests, a dual motor riser recliner is where two motors control the chair. One motor operates the backrest whilst the other motor operates the footrest and riser function. Each motor has its own set of buttons, and you will notice the chair’s handset control has four buttons.

With the dual motor rise and recline chairs, the user has more flexibility in determining a position that they find comfortable. Furthermore, by reclining the backrest independently of the other functions, users can create very different seated positions for a single motor chair. This flexibility makes dual motor chairs more popular with elderly and disabled users.
