Lift chairs – Intelligent Comfort
Who doesn't know it? After a long day, we look forward to finally taking a seat on the couch or in the armchair and enjoying the evening. We turn on the TV or read a book before going to bed. However, many of our customers have special requirements and needs. This includes seemingly trivial things like an armchair.
"Not every person is fortunate enough to get in and out of an armchair without problems. Often, this is associated with great effort or even requires help from other people. Of course, this is not always possible. Besides sitting and standing up, the quality of the armchair is also an important factor. People often sit in chairs that are almost antique, which can be several decades old. In our modern world, we would probably describe this as 'vintage' or traditionally classic. But let's not kid ourselves. These armchairs were not necessarily designed with ergonomics and functionality in mind."
"The consequences can be serious both in the short term and in the long run. Back damage and pain are common complaints from our customers. The solution to all these problems is a completely new type of armchair. We are proud to present our lift chairs to you."
What is a lift chair anyway? Well, the answer is actually quite simple. A lift chair is, at first glance, a completely normal chair, and that is intentional. It is meant to blend seamlessly into the surrounding environment and not stand out. A lift chair is equipped internally with motors that can change the surfaces of the chair according to the user's wishes. Changing means, in this case, manipulating the angle and height in such a way that the user can easily get into the chair and also get out again. The motors of the lift chair can be controlled with a small and uncomplicated remote control.
Depending on the model, the chair allows for various positions, but all help the user to stand up comfortably without much effort. Let's illustrate this with the example of the TOPRO Bologna, one of our top models. For both standing up and sitting down, the lift chair rises and tilts slightly forward. This provides you with a comfortable starting position or gently pushes you out of the chair. A stable frame on the floor ensures the necessary safety.
Another popular setting is the reclining position. In this case, the backrest and footrest adjust so that the user can lie horizontally. In general, lift chairs are adjustable in many ways. Ultimately, it depends on the model when it comes to the adjustment options.
Of course, the mobility of a lift chair is not the only criterion that defines this product class. A comfortable chair also includes high-quality materials and ergonomics. After all, it shouldn't pinch at every corner. Many of our lift chairs are therefore equipped with cushions that allow for an even more comfortable sitting and lying position. Additionally, the lift chairs are made from fire-resistant material. This is a great safety feature, but it should not encourage the user to handle cigarettes or similar items carelessly.
"In addition to the lift chairs that we present to you in our online shop, you can find practical accessories for your TOPRO chair. There we offer extra cushions, such as for the head or a lumbar cushion. Practical armrest covers protect your chair from unwanted mishaps. A glass of tea is often spilled on armrests."
Now that we have laid the foundations for the topic "lift chairs," we would like to take a closer look at some of our products that you can find here in the online shop together with you. The Norwegian manufacturer TOPRO is introducing the Bologna and the Verona, and Medtrade offers its own version of a lift chair.
Saljol Relax and Stand-Up Chair
With the electric TV, reclining, and lift chairs from Saljol, you can stand up safely and effortlessly. All lift chairs have lumbar support. The seat depth and headrest can be adjusted. This allows for comfortable and ergonomically correct sitting. The remote control for the chairs attaches with a magnet to the headrest and the side panel.
Electric recliners and lift chairs: How they can help you

As we age, muscle strength in the legs can decrease. This can make it difficult to stand up and sit down in a conventional chair, or even lead to a risk of injury.
With a chair with a seat elevation, you can avoid the following:
- "At some point, you will have no strength left in your legs and will just collapse in your chair."
- To get up from the chair, you need to pull yourself up on a table or another piece of furniture.
- "You need the help of your partner or a close person to get up from the chair."
In these situations, you not only put enormous strain on your spine but also increase the risk of falling. When you pull yourself up on furniture, it can tip over, and when you let yourself fall into the chair, you might easily miss or slip the chair or armchair.
An armchair with reclining and standing functions offers the ideal support here. It positions you exactly right, making it easier for you to stand up and sit down. You can reach the standing, sitting, or reclining position with little effort and reduced risk of falling.
TOPRO Bologna
The Bologna lift chair from the Norwegian manufacturer TOPRO is an absolute top product and is primarily aimed at customers who value quality and technology. With this product, TOPRO demonstrates that they are not only one of the market leaders in rollators. Decades of experience are also evident in the development of lift chairs.
The Bologna is equipped with four motors that can move the chair into different positions. In addition to the tilt function for standing up and sitting down, the armrests can also be adjusted in height. Furthermore, the lift chair can be reclined into a lying position. On our product website, you will find a practical video that introduces you to the Bologna. Seeing is understanding! Take the time to take a look at the pictures and the video.
The control of the chair is done via the intuitive remote control. Thanks to the color scale, you can easily identify the different positions. Additionally, the Bologna has an emergency system. This is battery-operated and ensures that you can still get out of the chair in case of a power failure or similar.
Another practical feature is located at the bottom of the lift chair, as you will find both the stable frame of the Bologna and four wheels there. Thanks to these wheels, a helper can push you without much effort, or the chair can generally be easily moved to another location. The frame on which the Bologna usually rests provides the necessary stability while the chair is in different positions.
When it comes to comfort, the Bologna simply offers one of the best products, both in our online shop and on the market. The basic equipment includes a headrest, and optionally, a lumbar cushion with memory function or armrest covers are available. The Bologna reclining chair is available in our store in three different colors. You can choose between a vibrant red, a subtle brown, and a pleasant cream color.
The Bologna lift chair is the Ferrari in its category. As a user, you receive one of the most comfortable and cozy chairs available on the market. We give the Bologna a clear recommendation. You can't go wrong here.
TOPRO Verona
The TOPRO Verona is the slightly stripped-down version of the Bologna, but the lift chair is no less recommendable or convincing. It offers slightly fewer functions than its big brother. The Verona is equipped with two motors, which provide you with both the tilt position for standing up and sitting down, as well as the reclining position for resting. The also color-coded remote control allows you to easily select the positions.
The Verona is also constructed from fireproof material and offers you an additional level of safety. The integrated emergency system also contributes to this. A battery pack allows the user to adjust the lift chair once. In case of a power failure, you can still reach the comfortable standing position.
"Like the Bologna, the Verona also comes with a pillow. Additionally, you can order a lumbar pillow with memory function or equip the chair with armrest covers."
"If you want to move the chair, for example, to vacuum, you can do so without any problems. The lift chair has small wheels on the bottom that allow the chair to be moved, but it should be mentioned that these wheels are not intended for transporting people."
The Verona is also available in different colors. You can choose between "caramel", "mocca", and "sand". This way, you can select which color best suits you and the surroundings.
The Verona lift chair is the more affordable alternative to the TOPRO Bologna, but don't be fooled. While the Verona has fewer features, it still meets all the demands that a user can have for a lift chair. You will receive an absolutely high-quality and comfortable support in everyday life.
