There are different types of medical recliners with the following as the most common:

Two Position - A two position chair has a motor that controls the leg rest and the chair’s rear. With this type, if the back is reclined, you’ll find the leg rest to be raised as one motor controls both mechanisms. It reclines to an angle that’s comfortable for viewing television, relaxing, and reading.
Three Position - This chair also comes with a motor that allows the backrest to recline to approx. 45 degrees. It is great for taking a nap in a position that’s partially upright.
Infinite - This medical recliner is more luxurious and expensive as it has two motors that operate independently. What makes it the ultimate choice is the fact that it offers unlimited positioning benefit. Its leg rest can be raised while the backrest’s angle is adjusted according to what you prefer. You can sleep in this type of chair as it can lie back like a bed. It's a chair that also allows your feet to be elevated above your heart, a position called the “Trendelenburg.” it is recommended for people who have swollen legs and ankles.
Zero Gravity - The zero gravity chair has a seat that tilts and raises like adjustable car seats. When the lower back is lifted, the chair puts minimum pressure on your spine. When it’s on a lying down position, it adjusts your spine accurately, improves circulation, expands lung capacity, and relaxes muscle tension.

How to select the right size of medical recliner?

Medical recliners are available in a myriad of sizes from petite to heavyweight. This means you can find the chair that’s perfect for you. A medical recliner that has the right fit will enable both of your feet to lay flat on the floor.

It will support your feet and ankles. Lastly, make sure that you check a chair’s weight capacity.

What are the best upholstery materials for medical recliners?

When it comes to the upholstery of a recliner, there are certain fabric types that are softer, more stain-resistant, and more durable compared to others. Your safest choice is a black medical recliner that’s made of a breathable fabric like rayon, cotton, and linen. If your priority is durability, then leather is your best option.
