Product Description
The Ezee Life Earth Power Lift Recliner Chair (Model CH4012) is a premium vertical rise lift chair for seniors in Canada — engineered for those who need more than a standard recliner. With a unique 6-inch vertical rise mechanism, dual motor infinite positioning, and clinically designed transfer features, this advanced medical lift chair restores independence, reduces fall risk, and supports round-the-clock care at home or in healthcare settings.
Most power recliners simply tilt you back and push you forward. The Ezee Life Earth CH4012 does something fundamentally different: its vertical rise function raises or lowers the entire seat 6 inches — while you're sitting or reclining — allowing safe, strain-free height adjustment before a transfer ever begins. For seniors, post-surgical patients, and individuals with limited mobility, this single feature can mean the difference between needing assistance and standing on their own.
Built on a heavy-duty steel and hardwood frame and covered in soft, durable fabric with high-density foam cushions, the Earth Lift Chair delivers lasting structural integrity and all-day comfort. Trusted by home care recipients and healthcare professionals alike, this is a lift chair engineered for real-world daily use — not just occasional comfort.
Key Features
6-Inch Vertical Rise Mechanism Raises or lowers the seat height while sitting or reclining, enabling safer transfers and reducing strain on joints for users and caregivers.
Dual Motor Independent Control Separate motors drive the backrest and footrest independently — enabling true infinite positioning, a full 3/4 recline for sleeping, and precise comfort adjustment via hand-held remote.
Removable Armrests Armrests detach completely to allow lateral (side) or sling transfers for both seated and reclining users — an essential feature for OT-assisted transfers and caregiver-assisted care routines.
Pillow-Back Backrest Generously padded pillow-back design provides enhanced lumbar and head support, preventing pressure buildup during extended sitting or reclining sessions.
Large Locking 5-Inch Casters Transport the chair room-to-room with ease, then lock the casters securely before transfers to prevent any rolling during position changes.
Special Incontinent Cover Easy-wipe, infection-control cover is included as standard — ideal for home care, palliative settings, or any environment where hygiene and fast cleanup are priorities.
Designed for Comfort & Safety
The Earth CH4012 was designed with one principle in mind: safe transfers save lives. Each year, thousands of Canadians are injured during chair-to-stand transfers — a risk that escalates significantly when furniture isn't engineered for the task. The 6-inch vertical rise allows the user or caregiver to optimize seat height before standing begins, dramatically reducing the biomechanical load on knees, hips, and the lower back. The locking 5-inch casters add a further layer of security, ensuring the chair remains anchored during critical transfer moments.
For attendant-assisted care environments, the push handles on the rear of the chair allow caregivers to maneuver clients safely between rooms without bending or straining. The 350 lb (approx. 160 kg) weight capacity accommodates a wide range of users, while the extra-tall seat height range of approximately 20 to 23 inches from the floor suits taller adults who are often underserved by standard lift chair designs. The smooth power lift mechanism gently assists users to a near-standing position — reducing the need for caregiver assistance with standing and sitting routines throughout the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are power lift chairs for seniors covered by insurance in Canada?
In Canada, power lift recliner chairs may be partially covered under certain provincial assistive device programs, private extended health benefits, or Veterans Affairs benefits, depending on your eligibility and plan. Coverage typically requires a prescription or letter of medical necessity from a physician or occupational therapist. We recommend contacting your provincial health authority or benefits provider directly to confirm coverage. Factory Direct Medical can assist with documentation upon request.
What is a vertical rise lift chair, and how is it different from a standard lift chair?
A standard power lift chair uses a single lifting mechanism to tilt the seat forward and push the user toward a standing position. A vertical rise lift chair — like the Ezee Life Earth CH4012 — adds a second function: the ability to raise or lower the entire seat height by up to 6 inches while the user remains seated or reclined. This means you can bring the seat closer to standing height before you begin to rise, dramatically reducing the effort and joint strain required to stand. For users with significant mobility limitations, this distinction is critically important for both safety and daily independence.
Can the Ezee Life Earth CH4012 be used for sling or lateral transfers by a caregiver?
Yes. The Ezee Life Earth CH4012 is specifically designed to support caregiver-assisted transfers. The armrests are fully removable, allowing unobstructed lateral transfers from the side — whether performed manually or using a transfer belt. The chair is also compatible with sling-based transfers, and the large locking 5-inch casters ensure the chair stays firmly in place during any transfer procedure. The push handles at the rear allow an attendant to safely reposition the chair before or after the transfer. This combination of features makes the CH4012 a genuinely care-ready mobility chair, not just a consumer recliner.
