What is a 3 Position Lift Assist Chair?

Two position lift assist chairs recline to about a 45° angle which is the perfect position for relaxing and watching television or reading a book. The 3 position lift assist recliner chairs go back even further into a sleeping position, though these lift assist chairs may be stopped in any position from straight up to flat. These chairs are great for people wanting more of a lounging experience or who may want to sleep in their chairs. As the back reclines the ottoman rises. Most 3 position lift assist chairs are full chaise loungers with no gap between the ottoman and seat. A single toggle switch on the hand pendant controls everything. They generally have one motor but heavy-duty 3 position lift assist chairs may employ double motors for extra lifting power.

A 3 position power lift assist recliner chair is able to recline further back than two position lift assist chairs, but will not recline as far back as an infinite position lift chair recliner or zero gravity power lift recliner.
