Rise & Recline reports on the “fantastic response” at Naidex to its two newly launched chairs
Adjustable chairs and beds manufacturer Rise & Recline has reported another hugely successful Naidex, where it launched two new products – the Barrowford Riser and the Eco Swivel Rise & Recliner.
Nigel Morley, Managing Director of Rise & Recline, commented: “Naidex is the perfect event for us to launch new products as it enables us to engage with dealers, healthcare professionals and end user in one location.
“We extensively invest in the development of every new product and the fantastic response both the Barrowford Riser and Eco Swivel Rise & Recliner received has made that worth every penny.
“The feedback we received during the two days was very positive and exceeded all our expectations and the level of enquiries from both existing and potential new dealers was great with many placing orders.”
In addition to launching two new products, the Rise & Recline team was once again doing its bit to help raise awareness of World Down Syndrome Day on March 21st by wearing odd socks.
The fully electric Barrowford Riser is based on the top selling Barrowford which has been a main stay in the Rise & Recline portfolio since its launch in 2001. The user can be effortlessly lifted while remaining in the seated position which is excellent for posture and reduces the need for manual handling by a family member or carer.
The fully electric lifting mechanism which lifts the whole chair including the arms is a brand-new concept as it keeps the arms in place therefore generating a better lift position and support for alighting the chair.
The Barrowford Riser has a maximum lift capacity of 20 stones and a lift range of 4.5” at the front and 11”at the back. For additional peace of mind, a full wireless battery back-up system is available
Available in small, medium and large, the Barrowford Riser comes with either a natural or mahogany wood finish and a comprehensive choice of materials from fabric to leather.
The Eco Swivel Rise & Recliner is a modern swivel chair that will turn 180 degrees in each direction and smoothly and effortlessly move the user to a standing position. Unlike other models, the Eco Swivel has a unique locking mechanism set at 180 degrees to prevent the power or battery cables from becoming wrapped around the chair base when in use.
To ensure the user can obtain the optimum seating position, there are four independent motors which control the following functions: pure tilt in space recline which ensures zero friction and sheer, independent back recline, independent leg movement and head rest. All functions are controlled from a stylish ergonomic handset.
