You will find a vast range of  fabric options to choose from. You will also be able to choose from two different motor configurations – so what exactly is the difference between a single and a dual motor chair?

Single Motor Chairs

 A single motor riser chair has exactly what it says it does – one single motor that powers all parts of the chairs movement. This single unit controls the backrest, foot rest and also rises the chair to standing.

Single motor chairs are often less expensive than dual motor ones. They also only have one set of buttons on your handset, and this may restrict your comfort slightly. For example when reclining the backrest, your feet will have to also be raised.

Due to having only a single motor there is much less adjustability. For example they have not ability for you to only raise your feet.

Dual Motor Chairs

In contrast dual motor riser chairs have two motors powering different parts of the movement. Due to the increased complexity these, chairs are slightly more expensive. 

One motor will control the backrest while the other will take charge of the footrest, shown by two separate sets of buttons on your handset. Users are able to recline the back of their chair, or raise their feet independently of each other. Meaning there are more options available for seating positions, often leading to better comfort levels.
