Does anyone have experience of Morris Living?
Their recliner riser seats seem much cheaper than most places. Or should I say less expensive.
I'm looking for one for my elderly mother.
Thanks

I think MiL's chair was from Phillips? Or something like that. And cost about £1800 7 years back. It was fairly simple compared to some - feet up, recline, rise. No heat or massage. And leather upholstery.
The crucial thing is that it was the right size for her and is comfortable to sit in for hours. Because that's what many elderly people do - sit for hours. Leather is good too as it's easier to clean than fabric.
So £1800 for about 5 solid years of use and it looked in very good nick still. OH managed to get £250 for it from a second hand place when it was no longer needed. So that might be your best answer is to look for high quality second hand ones. Don't buy long distance as you'll need mom to sit in it and make sure she's ok with the controls.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.

There have been some on Facebook Marketplace, described as immaculate, so worth a look, as he first few listings are local. However, if you'd rather browse, Douglas MacMillan's shops have some furniture items that look new.1
