Economy Chairs - These chairs are particularly suited for use by more than one person. Nursing homes, garden centres, churches, National Trust properties etc. will find these chairs low maintenance, rugged and inexpensive to purchase. They can be fitted with anti-theft devices. They can also serve as occasional use chairs.

Light weight chairs - are not only, as their name implies, lighter than standard chairs but are usually of a higher build quality. Beware of "cheap" imported copies.
The materials used on some leave a lot to be desired and the choice of specification can be very limited. Not all imports are like this but caution should be observed. Occasional use lightweight chairs can be very useful but it is a false economy to rely on these for every day use.

Comfort chairs - For those who spend many hours in a chair, a more sophisticated seating system is required. This can be achieved by adding a custom made system or by purchasing a chair built for this use. The advantage of the latter is that a "tilt in space" facility is often standard. This enables the whole seat to tip back, which not only increases comfort but also reduces pressure on seat area, which can help prevent sores.

Specialist chairs - include basketball, road racing and other forms of sports chairs. Those who intend to indulge in sport mostly appreciate the benefits of these types of chairs but they can be of use in normal daily activities.

Country Lifestyles do not specialise in these types of chairs. But are always happy to offer free advise.
