The 9205 is built for people who want to sink in. A deep grid-tufted back, thick bolster arms and a three-panel seat make it fully cushioned from shoulders to knees, and the wide frame carries up to 400 lbs. Sized for roughly 5'7" to 6'3".

2nd Generation Upgrade. Redesigned around real customer feedback:

  • Four side pockets — two on each side, positioned higher so the remote and your essentials stay within reach without bending down, even while reclined.
  • USB-A and USB-C charging ports — charge your phone or tablet from the chair.
  • 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.

Dual-Motor System. The backrest and the footrest move independently, so you can hold any position between fully upright and a true 180° lay-flat — not just a handful of fixed presets. The lift function brings you smoothly and safely to standing.

Lumbar heat and 4-mode back massage help ease muscle tension through the day.

Pairs Well With

A verified Irene House 9205 owner relaxing in his brown breathable leather big and tall power lift recliner at home — 27.5 inch wide seat, 400 lb capacity, real customer photo

Will I actually fit?

A wider, deeper seat with room to spare.

The 9205 gives you a 27.5" wide, 22.5" deep seat on a 40.5" frame, rated to 400 lb and sized for about 5'7"–6'3". If regular chairs pinch at the hips or feel short in the seat, this is the one sized for you.

“I'm not even a big man — I'm only 5'9" — but I wanted a chair with extra room to spread out.”

5 mm steel where the weight lands — 66% thicker than the last generation.

What actually holds 400 lb

5 mm steel where the weight lands — 66% thicker than the last generation.

A 400 lb rating is easy to print and hard to build. Under the 9205, the steel plate is thickened to 5 mm — 66% more steel than the previous generation — on a tubular-steel lift base, with two motors driving the backrest and footrest independently through infinite positions from 105° to 180°.

“Very sturdy — 2 motors rated for 400 lbs, I'm 305.”

Tested 20,000 times under 400 lb — before it ever lifts you.

Getting up shouldn't be the hard part

Tested 20,000 times under 400 lb — before it ever lifts you.

The lift is driven by TiMotion TA6 actuators (6,000 N) — an industry-recognized high-performance drive, and one of the most expensive components in this chair. The mechanism is cycle-tested 20,000 times under a 400 lb load.

We don't ask you to take “steady” on faith: the mechanism carries a 3-year written warranty.

“The motor is quiet and powerful.”

Why this footrest sits 7 cm higher.

Owners taught us this

Why this footrest sits 7 cm higher.

Heavier legs press a standard footrest down — owners at 400 and 500 lb told us so, year after year. So the 9205's footrest is raised 7 cm and built on the 5 mm steel plate, to counter the weight of bigger legs instead of sagging under them.

One owner measured it without knowing the spec:

“The height added to the foot and leg part elevates his ankles about 3 inches.” — Verified owner

The armrest cushions come off — and become your pillow.

A detail owners actually use

The armrest cushions come off — and become your pillow.

The 9205's armrest cushions are detachable. Lie the chair fully flat, move a cushion under your head, and the chair doubles as a bed for real rest — not just a recline.

“At 80 years old, especially for sleeping, this recliner has been wonderful.”

Heat and massage, once you're supported.

Comfort that earns its place

Heat and massage, once you're supported.

Lumbar heat and vibration massage, each with its own controller — one remote for lift and recline, one for heat and massage.

The plush build is what makes long stretches work: the grid-tufted back keeps its padding in place instead of flattening into a slab, and the three-panel seat supports the thighs and the seat separately rather than sagging as one piece over the hours.

“The heat and massage feel so good.”

Getting it into your home

The 9205 ships in 2 boxes that may arrive on different days — don't worry if they don't come together. Assembly is tool-free: the pieces slide into place in a few steps.

If it's not the right fit

35-day risk-free trial — if it isn't right once it arrives, contact our care team within 35 days of delivery. Coverage after that is written down, not implied: 2 years electronics · 3 years upholstery · 3 years mechanism · 3 years frame, with motors, remotes and covers replaceable individually — no whole-chair swap.

Who is the 9205 for?

Bigger-framed users about 5'7"–6'3", up to 400 lb, who want a wider (27.5") and deeper (21") seat than a standard lift chair.

Does it lie fully flat?

Yes — infinite positions from 105° to a fully flat 180°. The detachable armrest cushions can be used as a pillow, so the chair doubles as a bed.

How is it delivered?

In 2 boxes that may arrive on different days. Assembly is tool-free — and you can always call us if you'd like a hand.

Customer photo review of 9205 EWT500 Extra-Wide/Tall Big Man Power Lift Recliner - Triple Motor, 500 LBS, Heat & Massage, Extended Footrest

I was so nervous about buying this recliner online—my living room is a bit of an awkward size, and I worried it’d either be too bulky to fit or too small to feel cozy. The customer service team was absolutely incredible from the start! They helped me double-check the dimensions, walked me through the space-saving features, and even sent me extra photos of the scale next to similar furniture to make sure I wouldn’t be disappointed. When it arrived, I was thrilled to see it fit perfectly in the corner by the window—just as they promised! The fabric is so soft and plush, and it’s become my go-to spot for morning coffee, weekend naps, and even late-night work sessions with my laptop on the side table. It’s exactly the size I needed: roomy enough to curl up in, but not so big that it overwhelms the room. I can’t recommend this chair (and the team behind it) enough!

Customer photo review of 9205L Big & Tall Power Lift Recliner – Extended Footrest, Dual Motor, Heat & Massage, 400 lbs

The chair is handsome looking, and comfortable. It has an extended footrest but the footrest is manual, not remote control. If you have trouble with your balance and getting up, it makes it more difficult to stand to your feet when the footrest is down and you need a second person to manually fold the footrest up. We brought the oversize chair with the extended footrest so my sister could be comfortable sleeping in it at night and be able to get up to go to the bathroom on her own.

This chair is even more comfortable and spacious than I expected. The seat is wide and deep, giving me plenty of room to sit naturally without feeling cramped. The thick cushioning provides excellent support for my back, waist, arms, and legs, and the included pillows make it easy to adjust the support exactly where I need it. Despite its generous size, the chair feels cozy rather than bulky. It is perfect for relaxing, watching TV, reading, or taking a nap. The upholstery also feels soft and looks high quality. If you are looking for a large, roomy recliner that offers plenty of support and all-day comfort, this chair is an excellent choice.

Customer photo review of 9205L Big & Tall Power Lift Recliner – Extended Footrest, Dual Motor, Heat & Massage, 400 lbs

I am very happy with this chair. The overall quality is excellent, and it feels sturdy, well-made, and built to last. The upholstery feels soft and comfortable, while the padding provides great support without being too firm. I can sit or recline in it for a long time without feeling uncomfortable, and the backrest, seat, and leg rest support my body very well. One of the things I like most is the size. It is roomy enough to sit comfortably and stretch out, but it does not feel unnecessarily bulky or take up too much space in the room. The seat width and depth feel just right, and the extended footrest gives my legs plenty of support when I recline. The different sections can be adjusted to help me find a comfortable position whether I am sitting upright, watching TV, reading, or relaxing. The chair also operates smoothly, and the controls are easy to use. You can tell that a lot of thought went into both the comfort and construction. It looks great in my home and feels even better than I expected. Considering the quality, comfort, generous size, and useful features, I think it is well worth the price. I would definitely recommend this chair to anyone looking for a comfortable, spacious, and high-quality recliner.

Customer photo review of 9205 EWT500 Heavy Duty Extra Wide Power Lift Recliner – Triple Motor, 500 lbs, Heat & Massage

I really do love this chair. I love the ease of movement and it is so comfortable and plush definitely enough room and the massage is great. Everything is great. My only critique is that the foot rest extender you can’t get it put down while it’s reclined, unless you have really strong legs and can pull your knees up to your chin and then put it down with your heels which I don’t and can’t, but you can’t put it down while it’s not reclined either but other than that it’s an awesome Chair.

The Lift Recliner Chair is just what my husband needed. It is well made for a larger person, and the lumbar support helps with his back that has three fractures. The upholstery is very soft and comfortable. The lift is great to get out of the chair with ease. This chair is so well made we know it will last forever! Well worth the investment! Also he likes the lumbar motion and heat element for his back.
