Personalised comfort in two signature styles
Crafted in the UK, the Wisley offers you the choice of two beautiful back styles to suit your preferences. The waterfall back features three deep, adjustable cushions that softly contour to your spine and shoulders, surrounding you in complete relaxation. The lateral back offers firmer padding at the sides to support an upright posture, ideal if you require more stability while seated. Whichever you choose, both designs are available in small, medium and large sizes to ensure the best support and fit made for your body.
Effortless control, all-day support
With its advanced quad-motor tilt-in-space system, the Wisley gives you complete control over your comfort. The headrest, footrest, backrest, and lumbar support can be independently adjusted to create your perfect seating position, whether you’re watching a movie, reading or taking a nap. The footrest can extend to relieve pressure on your Achilles heel and alleviate fatigue in your feet. The Wisley also comes with a tilt-in-space function that aids in distributing body weight and improving blood flow, leaving you feeling weightless as you lie in its cocoon of softness.
Uniquely, the Wisley comes with the Variable Angle Lift feature, which gently assists you as you stand up or sit down. With the Variable Angle Lift, the Wisley can rise at 10°, 20°, or 30°, tailoring the chair’s height to provide the right amount of support as you effortlessly stand.
Crafted and styled for your home
The Wisley is upholstered in your choice of premium fabrics or stylish leathers, with a range of colours to complement your home interior. Every Wisley comes with a 7-year warranty on its mechanism and a 5-year warranty on its frame and electrics, offering complete peace of mind.
Designed to complement modern living, a discreet USB-C port is built into the side arm for charging your electronic devices. There are also handset holders located on both sides of the chair to suit left and right-handed individuals.
Our verdict
The Wheelfreedom Wisley Riser Recliner chair stands out for its combination of quad-motor mechanism and its tilt-in-space functionality, which gives users the most flexibility when compared to other rise and recliners. With its handcrafted UK quality and a 7-year mechanism warranty, it offers long-term quality and reassurance.
A comparable alternative is the Wheelfreedom Epsom Riser Recliner chair, which is another quad-motor mechanism with an independent headrest, footrest, backrest, and lumbar adjustments, as well as the tilt-in-space feature. The Wisley has the edge in terms of comfort as it features the Variable Angle Lift function for standing transitions; the feature is useful for individuals who need support when standing up. Overall, the Wisley is a better choice for users who prioritise comfort over cost, whereas the Epsom is a more affordable and well-rounded option.
Another option is the Wheelfreedom Cobham Rise Recliner chair, which shares the Wisley’s quad-motor adjustability and choice of the lateral and waterfall back designs. While the Epsom offers a more economical option, the Wisley adds the benefit of a tilt-in-space function, which gently redistributes weight across the body for a deeper relaxation and all-day comfort. With the tilt-in-space feature, the Wisley is a better option if you are seeking unmatched comfort, but the Cobham is a more economical choice for users with a lower budget.
Taken together, the Wisley is ideal for those who want a high-end rise and recliner with unmatched comfort, with flexible adjustability and the reassurance of a long-term warranty.
