Rent or Buy Reclining Lift Chairs
At Williams Lift Company, we offer both rental lift chairs and buying options, so you can choose what makes sense for your needs and budget.
How Lift Chairs Work
A power lift recliner looks like a standard recliner, but it has a built-in motor. At the push of a button, the chair tilts forward and brings you to a standing position. To sit down, you back into the chair, press the button, and it gently lowers you into place. Most chairs plug into a standard wall outlet, so there’s no special wiring required.
There are three main types of lift chairs:
- Two-position: This chair reclines to about 45 degrees, ideal for sitting and light resting.
- Three-position: This chair reclines to a near-flat position. It’s better for extended rest or sleeping.
- Infinite position (zero gravity): This chair stops at any angle, including with feet above the heart. It offers maximum comfort and flexibility.
The right configuration for you depends on how you’ll use the chair day to day. Our team can walk you through the differences when you visit or call.
When to Rent vs Buy
Renting a lift chair makes sense when you have a temporary need or when you want to try a chair before committing. Our New Jersey customers choose a rental when they’re:
- Recovering from hip, knee, or back surgery
- Healing from an injury that makes sitting and standing painful
- Hosting a family member or guest who needs extra support
- Testing whether a lift chair is the right long-term solution
If you anticipate using a lift chair regularly or indefinitely, purchasing is often the better value. Either way, there’s no pressure. We’re happy to help you think through what fits your situation best.

Try a Lift Chair Before You Buy
A lift chair is a big investment, and there are many factors that affect the total cost of a lift chair, including chair size, positioning, upholstery, and advanced comfort features. Because every person’s needs are different, the best way to receive accurate pricing is through a personalized consultation.
At Williams Lift Company, we help families understand rental pricing, purchase options, and available solutions based on their mobility goals. Choosing a lift chair is about finding a chair that feels comfortable and works well in your home. That’s why we encourage families to try before they buy.
We keep up to 10 models from Golden Technologies on the floor, so you can sit in them, test the controls, and feel the differences. Appointments are required, and our staff is there to answer questions.
Type and Comfort Features
Beyond the recline position described above, many lift chairs include optional features that make sitting more comfortable. Depending on the model, you may find:
- Heated seats and backs
- Built-in vibration or massage
- Cup holders and side pockets to keep essentials within reach
- Fabric, faux leather, or leather upholstery options
These features vary by model and price point. Our team can help you sort through what is worth it for you.
Sizing and Fit
Getting the right size is important for both your comfort and safety. A chair that’s too large won’t support you properly when you stand, while one that’s too small will feel cramped when you’re sitting in it. When you visit our showroom or speak with our team, we’ll factor in:
- Height and weight of the primary user
- Seat depth and width
- Room clearance, because most chairs need 19 to 28 inches of wall clearance to fully recline
- Whether the chair will be used for short periods or for extended sitting throughout the day
Trying a chair in person is the best way to confirm it’s comfortable. We strongly encourage visiting our showroom before you decide.
