Description
The Accora Configura Comfort Chair is one of the most versatile specialist riser recliners available today. Designed for users who require enhanced pressure management, postural support and positioning, it combines a dual motor tilt in space mechanism with a wide range of adjustment options to accommodate changing needs over time.
The Configura Comfort is available in Small, Medium and Large sizes and features integrated seat width, depth and height adjustment options. Its adaptable design makes it suitable for both domestic and healthcare environments, while the no-shear recline action helps maintain pelvic stability and comfort throughout the day.
Why Choose the Configura Comfort Chair?
The Configura Comfort is one of the most adaptable chairs in the Configura range. It has been designed to accommodate changing needs without requiring a completely new chair. This makes it a popular choice for both home users and healthcare professionals looking for a long-term seating solution.
Features such as reversible armrests, adjustable backrest brackets and optional height adjustment kits allow the chair to be tailored to the individual user. Braked castors provide mobility when required, while the knock-down design makes delivery and installation easier where access is restricted.
The chair is also compatible with a range of transfer aids, including the Cricket, ReTurn 7500 and Molift Raiser. As a result, it is frequently specified in care homes, rehabilitation settings and private homes where safe transfers are important.

Dual Motor Tilt in Space Mechanism
The Configura Comfort is supplied with a dual motor tilt in space mechanism as standard. Unlike a traditional riser recliner, a tilt in space chair changes position while maintaining a more consistent body posture. This can help improve comfort and support for people who spend long periods seated.
The tilt in space action allows the seat and backrest to move together, helping redistribute pressure across a larger surface area. At the same time, the independently adjustable backrest provides additional flexibility, allowing users to find a comfortable position for reading, watching television or resting.

Flat Rise Function
The Configura Comfort features Accora’s variable angle lift system, allowing the chair to rise at three different angles.
As standard, the chair rises at 23 degrees. However, this can be adjusted to a medium rise angle of 14 degrees or a near-flat rise angle of just 2 degrees. This flexibility can be particularly beneficial for users who find conventional rise angles uncomfortable or who require a more gradual standing transfer.
The rise angle can also be adjusted after installation if requirements change in the future.
Pressure Management & Postural Support
The Configura Comfort has been designed to support users who require enhanced pressure care, positioning and postural support. It is commonly recommended for people who spend prolonged periods seated or who are at increased risk of pressure damage.
The integrated self-supply overlay allows pressure-relieving cushions to be fitted quickly and easily. This flexibility means the chair can accommodate changing clinical requirements without replacing the entire seating system.
The no-shear recline action helps reduce friction during repositioning while promoting pelvic stability. Consequently, the chair is often used by people with neurological conditions, kyphosis, oedematous legs and other complex seating requirements.
Suitable For a Wide Range of Users
The Configura Comfort is suitable for ambulant, semi-ambulant and non-ambulant users. Its combination of pressure management, postural support and adjustable positioning makes it appropriate for a wide variety of clinical and domestic applications.
Whether the priority is comfort, pressure care, improved posture or safer transfers, the Configura Comfort provides a highly adaptable seating solution that can be adjusted as needs change over time.
Looking for Alternative Configura Chairs?
If you require a chair with a higher weight capacity and wider seating widths, take a look at the Accora Configura Mediatric Chair, which offers seat widths of up to 26 inches and a weight capacity of up to 35 stone.
If you prefer a simpler single tilt in space mechanism, the Accora Configura Lite 2 Chair provides many of the same positioning benefits in a more straightforward configuration.
