A durable welded steel frame offers continuous support and does not bend with time. Batteries should last years according to use. Taking extra care of your chair should extend its years of use.
The seat material is abrasion and water-resistant and conforms to the body with elastic durability similar to memory foam. It’s been independently certified to ≥50,000 Martindale cycles. The material is 67% Wool, 20% Flame Retardant Viscose, and 13% Viscose.
A two-wheel locking system creates stationary stability to ensure a safe and controlled exit and entry every time. This stability allows people to use the chair as a leaning post or for additional support.
Extension cords are not needed, as the chair operates on a long battery system that can be charged overnight. The chair is operated by batteries, so there’s no risk of tripping over loose cords. We recommend charging overnight to make sure the chair is always ready for use.
Easily attachable or removable accessories — such as a seat protector, foot ring, or companion bar — are available for further customization. A special foot ring is available to achieve a proper sitting posture and rest feet while in a high-sitting position. When the foot ring isn’t in use, it folds away easily.
The chair’s durable rubber wheels made with four-inch encased castors provide exceptional ease of movement over most floor surfaces so users can smoothly foot propel throughout the home or workplace
Power and manual height adjustments give users the freedom to raise or lower themselves while doing different activities and chores around the house, including cooking, crafting, and getting to those once hard-to-reach cabinets.
The chairs are designed and made in Denmark, meaning they have the highest quality materials that Scandinavian furniture can offer. They also come in five colors: onyx black, ruby red, midnight blue, dove grey, and charcoal grey.
The chair offers a 22-degree backward recline feature, allowing the individual to use it as a personal chair or recliner. All models can also recline forward 4 degrees.
The user can adjust the back of the chair for anterior or posterior support as well as vertical height based on individual needs. The adjustability allows for optimal comfort and posture.

Great Service, Great Quality!
My husband has a health issue that drains his stamina with any activity. We’ve been looking for a way to safely allow him to be more mobile. This chair has helped him be safe and stable in the kitchen due to the powered height adjustments and locking mechanism. Because the chair is easily adjustable I use it in the kitchen too. My goal is for him to start cooking breakfast for us again soon!
Thrilled with Independence Chair™!
I just wanted to thank you for all your help with the Independence Chair™. My husband absolutely loves it! It is so well constructed—better than I could have hoped for—and is sturdy and safe for him to use. We are absolutely thrilled with our purchase!
Life-changing Freedom: Enable Me’s Independence Chair™
I have purchased a Independence chair for my office 2 years ago from ENABLE ME. Recently I purchased a second Independence chair for my home to use in lieu of a wheel chair from ENABLE ME. The service and care given me has been outstanding. These chairs are of the highest quality and work perfectly. The freedom and mobility have been life changing. I now can transition to every room and every height without assistance. I have been able to continue working because of this chair. I highly recommend Enable Me and the Independence Chair.
