As we get older, the furniture we once found comfortable may no longer provide quite the same level of support.

Getting up from a favourite chair can become more difficult, finding a comfortable sitting position can take longer, and aches and pains can make relaxing harder than it should be. But greater support doesn’t necessarily mean compromising on how your home looks.

British mobility furniture specialist Grosvenor Mobility has spent more than 17 years helping people find furniture designed around their individual comfort, mobility and style and has manufactured more than 22,000 pieces of mobility furniture for customers.

A family-run British company, Grosvenor was founded on a simple belief that everyone deserves comfort.

From made-to-measure rise and recline chairs to adjustable beds and recliner sofas, its furniture is handmade and individually configured for the person who will actually be using it.

And with Grosvenor Mobility currently offering up to half price off, plus an additional £350 when you trade in your old furniture, it’s the ideal time to discover whether made-to-measure furniture could make a difference in your home. Click here to request your FREE brochure and to find out more.

SIX REASONS TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT MADE-TO-MEASURE FURNITURE

1. Your chair is made to fit you rather than the other way around: We rarely expect a pair of shoes or glasses to fit everybody perfectly, yet we often take exactly that approach with furniture. Grosvenor Mobility takes a different approach. Its rise and recline chairs are made to measure around the individual, taking into account factors such as their measurements, mobility requirements and preferred sitting position.

The aim is to create a chair that doesn't simply look comfortable, but feels properly suited to the person using it. For someone spending a significant amount of time in their favourite chair, those seemingly small differences can matter.

2. Standing up can feel easier and more controlled: For people with reduced mobility, getting out of a conventional armchair can sometimes be one of the most difficult parts of the day. A rise and recline chair uses electric motors to gently change position.

Some people may only require a small amount of lift to reduce the effort needed to stand. Others prefer a fuller rise that can make the transition from sitting to standing feel steadier and more controlled. And once you're sitting down, the same powered adjustment lets you experiment with different positions until you find the one that feels most comfortable for you.

3. Comfort can be personalised too: There isn't one definition of a comfortable chair. That's why Grosvenor's bespoke approach goes beyond simply choosing its dimensions. Depending on the model, customers can explore different positioning and support options, including lumbar support, heating and massage features.

For people experiencing reduced mobility or discomfort associated with conditions such as arthritis or joint pain, being able to tailor the chair around their individual requirements can be particularly appealing. And for family members or carers, the additional support of a rise and recline chair may help someone continue enjoying more independence in their own home.

4. Mobility furniture doesn't have to look clinical: One concern people can have about mobility furniture is what it will look like in their home. Grosvenor Mobility believes additional support shouldn't mean sacrificing personal style. Customers can choose from 250 fabrics, leathers, motors and accessories allowing them to create something that complements their home as well as their individual needs.

That includes different colours, fabrics and leathers alongside alternative back styles and additional features. such as reading lamps, heat and massage, USB charging point, adjustable head and lumbar support (chair). For people who want greater freedom of movement, swivel recliners are also available, allowing the user to turn towards a table, television or walking aid without repeatedly having to shuffle the chair itself.

5. The same approach can continue from day into night: Comfort doesn't end when you leave the living room. Grosvenor Mobility also produces adjustable beds, giving customers the opportunity to create a more personalised sleeping and resting position.

For this reason, some customers choose to combine their rise and recline chair with an adjustable bed, creating a more supportive environment throughout the day and night. Again, the emphasis is on finding the configuration that's right for the individual rather than settling for a standard, off-the-shelf solution.

6. You can try it in your own home before deciding: A mobility chair is a very personal purchase and it's difficult to know whether something is right for you simply by looking at it online. That's why Grosvenor Mobility offers a free home trial with no obligation to buy. It gives you the opportunity to experience the furniture in familiar surroundings, discuss your individual requirements and decide whether a rise and recline chair is right for you.

There's no need to make the decision based solely on photographs or measurements, all specifications and quotes held in value for 60 days - giving you time to discuss with friends and family. Also, our occupational therapist trained home demonstrators take the time to understand your individual needs, carrying out a personalised assessment.
