It was a birthday gift for a 91 year old lady. She was using an old reclining chair you had to pull an arm on the side of the chair. She had a hard time reclining in it. She had to close it with her feet. She quit using it as a recliner. Now she loves her electric chair we upgraded to message and heat. You now can see she is very happy. She told me I should get one, meaning I can’t use her chair.
