Lento 50 Stone Riser Recliner Chair

What makes the Lento Bariatric Riser Recliner Chair so comfortable?

Tilt in space function

Our tilt in space functionality enables weight redistribution, meaning no more pain or aching pressure points, even after extended periods of sitting.

Sit to stand functionality

The vertical rise function allows for an easier and safer sit-to-stand movement.

Considered pressure relief

Pressure care and relief is vital when looking after heavier users, as they are often sat in their chair for longer periods of time and have significantly more pressure points with larger loads, putting them at great risk of developing ulcers.

That’s why we have incorporated soft Dartex backrest cushions and medium-risk gel in the seat wrap of the bariatric riser recliner chairs as standard, to provide that all-important enhanced pressure relief.

Backrest recline

The backrest recline allows for enhanced comfort, pressure relief and improved circulation.

Ideal for infection control

All cushions on the Bariatric chair can be supplied with magnetic fastenings, instead of velcro, to make them better for infection control in multi-user healthcare environments. Additionally, the easy to clean cushion covers can be removed and machine washed, making this one of the most hospital friendly bariatric seating solutions on the market.

Fully adjustable

Built to provide tailored support to individuals with higher body weights and postural challenges. As our bariatric chair is fully adjustable, it enables extra comfort, as the chair is fitted to each individual. It also makes it appropriate for multi-user environments, as adjustments are quick, easy and don't require tools.

Convenient Modular Design

The modular design of the Lento bariatric chair makes it easy to replace or repair parts when necessary, making it ideal for hospitals and other multi-user care environments.

Compatible with stand-aids

This chair is compatible with the Sara Steady, regular standaids and mobile hoists, assisting transfers and helping patients who struggle to weight bear.

Multiple backrest options

Interchangeable back rests allow you to find the appropriate level of support needed. A waterfall backrest comes as standard but can be replaced with lateral or cocoon backrests. Waterfall backrests are great for reducing pressure on the spine, and they now come with magnetic attachments so they can be easily repositioned to suit the person’s posture. We have a bundle available of all the accessories you could need for your care chair!

Easy transfers

The removeable arms allow for easy side transfers.

Motor action

Our bariatric chair has an electric motor, allowing you to individually control all the chair's functionalities with a remote.

Reviews

"The Lento Bariatric chair is a very well thought out piece of equipment. It’s really great to see that so much care has been taken to making it size appropriate, as well as being able to take the weight of a heavier patient. "

"The body shapes of larger patients of similar weight can vary greatly, but the Lento allows as many patients as possible to find a safe and supportive position. The chair looks inviting as you approach it and the cushions are luxuriously padded making it comfortable to settle into. I like that the styling is modern and that the chair isn’t immediately identifiable as an assistive device."

"The chair offers adjustability of the seat width, seat depth, and the armrest height to maximise comfort and facilitate easy mobilisation for the user. ­­­The tilt-in-space feature helps the user find a comfortable position which promotes good breathing without compromising fluid drainage from lower limbs. The waterfall back cushions are well shaped and supportive, and can be removed or rearranged giving lots of different options to accommodate a range of users."

"I appreciate that the cushions are held in place with strong magnets. Sitting in a chair and hearing Velcro being repositioned behind you can be alarming, but by using magnets the Lento ensures that changes can be made quickly and quietly. Also, the motor which repositions the chair moves smoothly and comfortably and is almost silent in operation. I am always conscious of listening for mechanical devices to sound like they are operating under a load, so the quiet efficiency, combined with the physical comfort, makes it very easy to relax in."

"I very much like that the angle of the back rest can be adjusted when using the chair as an aid to assist with standing. Regaining mobility can be a difficult process combining physical challenges with fear and anxiety for the patient. The backrest adjustability ensures that the patient can be helped to their feet at a natural angle, making the process comfortable, and physically easier, while promoting confidence and good posture."
