The Harby is a dual-motor tilt-in-space recliner designed for people who need more than basic comfort from an armchair. It’s built to support posture, reduce pressure, and make everyday movement easier, particularly for users with reduced mobility.
The dual-motor system allows the backrest and footrest to be adjusted independently, giving finer control over seating position than a single-motor chair. This makes it easier to find a comfortable setup for longer periods of sitting, rather than being locked into one combined movement.
Alongside this, the Harby uses a tilt-in-space mechanism. Instead of opening the chair at the hips, the whole seating position gently tilts while maintaining the same body angle. This is especially helpful for pressure management and comfort, as weight is redistributed rather than shifted forward — something many users find more supportive over time.
A powered rise function is built in to assist with standing. The chair lifts smoothly to help bring the user to a near-standing position, reducing the effort needed to get up and supporting greater independence around the home.
The Harby is constructed on a strong, stable frame and finished with durable materials chosen for daily use. It’s designed to feel solid and supportive, while still operating quietly and smoothly in normal living spaces. Vale Recliners offer a 5 year warranty with their chairs covering the motors, mechanism and frame. All other components are backed by a 1 year warranty.
