CCW 1,461 #1 Posted 3 hours ago Life as brought me another new hip this past Monday and as part of my preparation I purchased a used power recliner which has worked great. Well as I pushed buttons to raise and lower the chair I naturally ruminated on would the power lift in this chair pick up the front end of my 312-8? I weigh 230 lbs and it does not strain lifting me. Of course I am not going to rip the chair apart to find out but some of you might have some thoughts. I bought my chair used for $300. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,796 #2 Posted 3 hours ago Sounds feasible, but I wouldn't trust it. Why not sell or donate the chair and buy a lift from Harbor Freight for $139 or less that is designed to do what you want to do. I found one used for $75.00. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
