Color:
The 9188 EW500 is built for heavier users who want real support without a bulky look. A clean, panel-stitched back, softly padded pillow arms and a single-panel seat keep the profile streamlined, while the extra-wide frame carries up to 500 lbs. Sized for roughly 5'8" to 6'5".
Triple-Motor System. Two 400 lb motors drive the footrest and the lift together — 800 lbs of combined force, far beyond the 500 lb capacity, so the motors never work at their limit. Twin lift rods carry that load on both sides of the frame rather than through a single point. A third motor powers the backrest independently, so you can set the back and the footrest separately.
Engineered for heavier daily use:
- 45-density high-resilience foam — an all-foam build specified for the 500 lb models, chosen for how it holds its shape under heavier weight over years of use.
- Upgraded hardwood frame — redesigned for greater structural stability and a longer service life.
- Reinforced steel frame — rebuilt for heavy-duty daily use.
- 66% thicker footrest steel plate — up from 3 mm to 5 mm (0.12" to 0.2") vs. the 1st generation, for significantly greater footrest stability under heavier legs. Extended, it now sits about 2" (5 cm) higher than the 1st generation.
- 20,000-cycle tested — the lift mechanism is tested to 20,000 full operations.
Reclines to 165°. At 500 lb capacity, 165° is the recline this chair is engineered to hold — deep enough to stretch out fully, with your back and legs supported at every position in between. The frame and mechanism are built to keep holding it that way for years.
Lumbar heat and back massage help ease muscle tension through the day, and the lift assist brings you smoothly and safely to standing.
