Dedicated support from our U.S. team

The 9188 is the model we have sold the most of, and the one we have had the longest to get right. It is sized for the middle of the range — roughly 5'2" to 5'9", rated to 300 lbs — with a deep seat, a classic silhouette, and a dual-motor system that moves the backrest and footrest independently.

Almost everything below started as a message from an owner.

Second-Generation Upgrade — built from owner feedback.

  • Four side pockets, repositioned higher — owners told us the old pockets meant bending down. Now the remote and your essentials sit within easy reach, even while reclined.
  • 18 W fast-charge USB-A and USB-C — enough to charge a phone or tablet properly, not just trickle it.
  • Externally replaceable charging module — the port unit releases from the outside of the chair, so it can be swapped without taking anything apart.

Tuned for longer sitting. We reworked both the seat and the backrest based on what owners told us about sitting for hours rather than minutes. The aim was not the softest possible cushion, but a balance that works for a wider range of body types.

Upgraded heating, across the seat as well as the back. The heating element itself was upgraded, and heat now covers a large area of the seat cushion rather than the backrest alone — so the warmth reaches more of you.

S-spring lumbar support. We added S-springs through the lumbar section, so the lower back is held rather than left to sink. It is the part of the chair you notice least when it is right, and most when it is missing.

Infinite positions including a full 180° lay-flat, 4-mode back massage, and lift assist that helps make the transition to standing easier and more controlled.

We are still changing it. If something about yours could be better, email us. The upgrades on this page exist because earlier owners did exactly that — and the next ones will come from the same place.

One thing worth saying before you choose: everyone is built differently, so measure before you order. The best chair is not the biggest one — it is the one that fits your body.

FAQs

Who is the 9188 designed for?

The 9188 is our standard medium-size lift chair, designed for users between 5'2" and 5'9" tall, up to 300 lbs, with a 23" wide seat. It's the best fit for average body types, with lumbar heat and vibration massage included.

Does the 9188 lay flat? Can I sleep in it?

Yes. Dual motors adjust the backrest and footrest independently, reclining to a nearly 180° lay-flat position suitable for overnight sleeping.

How many boxes does the 9188 ship in? Is assembly difficult?

The 9188 ships in 2 boxes (Box 1: 28.9" x 15.4" x 30.3"; Box 2: 30.3" x 24.6" x 21.3"), which may arrive on different days — don't worry if they don't show up together. Assembly is tool-free and takes just a few simple steps: the backrest slides onto the base and the cables plug together.

How much space does the 9188 need?

Fully assembled, the 9188 measures 42.5"H x 32.5"W x 39"D. It ships unassembled in 2 boxes, so doorways aren't a concern — each box fits easily through standard doors. When placing the chair, it needs at least 18" of wall clearance to fully recline — we recommend leaving about 20" for comfortable everyday use.

Do your products have any certifications?

Yes. All of our chairs are SGS and TÜV certified — tested by independent third-party organizations for safety, durability, and quality.
