The latest addition to the Pride Mobility VivaLift Collection is the VivaLift Premier PLR5900 recliner. Crafted with 100% American leather—not reconstituted or coated leather—this chair offers unmatched quality and luxury. A sleek black leather option is available in a rich brown. We had the opportunity to explore this impressive recliner firsthand at Medtrade 2025 in Dallas, Texas, and we’re excited to share all the details. 

Pride Mobility is redefining lift recliners with a fresh design and innovative features, offering a range of benefits to enhance your lifestyle. 

New Immersive Audio: creates a 3D soundscape that surrounds you from every direction—even above and behind—delivering a more engaging and realistic listening experience. This technology benefits individuals with hearing difficulties and elevates audio to a natural, lifelike, and three-dimensional expertise, far beyond the limitations of traditional 2D surround sound.

True-Infinite Positions: This feature allows the backrest and footrest to move independently, offering greater flexibility and personalized comfort. Powered by two separate motors, it enables a broader range of adjustments for maximum relaxation. Unlike single-motor chairs, where movements are synchronized, this design allows full recline and Trendelenburg positions, providing a superior seating experience.

Massage and Heat Therapy: This chair features built-in heating pads strategically placed in the shoulders, lumbar region, and seat, combined with an air bladder massage system to alleviate back stiffness and discomfort. The air bladder gently inflates and deflates, promoting spinal disc expansion and hydration for enhanced relief and relaxation.

Tilt Elevation: A motor powers the tilt feature at the front of the chair, which, when activated, raises the chair’s front edge to position your feet above your heart. This adjustment can help reduce swelling and improve blood circulation by utilizing gravity. It also offers relief from varicose vein discomfort, reduces pressure on the lower back, promotes faster recovery after exercise, and helps prevent deep vein thrombosis.

Power Pillow & Lumbar: The Viva Lift Premier features a Power and Lumbar adjustment for ultimate comfort and support. The Power Pillow offers adjustable head and neck support, allowing users to find the perfect angle for reading, watching TV, or simply relaxing. Meanwhile, the power lumbar adjustment lets you customize the pressure on your lower back, helping maintain the natural curve of your spine. This reduces pressure, promotes proper alignment, alleviates back pain, improves posture, and enhances comfort. 

Lithium Battery Backup System: A lithium-powered backup system is essential for maintaining independence during a power outage, ensuring your chair remains functional. This reliable power source provides numerous lifts and reclines, allowing you to stay comfortable even when the electricity is out. However, during extended outages, we recommend conservatively using the chair’s features to preserve battery life. While reclining and lifting functions will work for multiple uses, it’s best to avoid draining the battery entirely.

Why You’ll Love the New PLR5900—And So Do We

The new Pride Viva PLR5900 is a feature-packed recliner crafted with 100% genuine American leather. It offers exceptional durability and a luxurious, natural feel. Unlike faux leather blends, this chair delivers the authentic "leathery" aroma, a unique uneven texture, and enhanced breathability that only real leather can provide. Built to stand the test of time, it's a true investment in quality and comfort.

Beyond its premium materials, the PLR5900 boasts innovative functionality. It includes front-facing pull-out storage compartments equipped with a wireless speed charger and both USB-A and USB-C ports for convenient device charging. The armrests are designed with hidden storage—one side features small compartments for essentials like remotes. At the same time, the other includes a deep compartment, perfect for storing larger items like blankets, books, or anything you need within arm's reach. Additional shallow storage is ideal for frequently used items.

The chair also offers built-in controls for an immersive audio experience, turning your recliner into a versatile hub for relaxation and convenience. With its thoughtful design and superior craftsmanship, the Pride Viva PLR5900 is more than just a chair—it's a statement piece for your home.

Key Features of the VivaLift Premier PLR5900:

• True Infinite Positioning: The PLR5900 offers a fully adjustable recline with a tilt feature that raises the front of the chair, allowing users to elevate their feet above their heart for improved circulation.
• Built for Comfort: The chair features coil springs in the seat for even weight distribution, a fully padded chaise, and an extended footrest for added relaxation.
• Dimensions and Weight Capacity: It is designed for users between 5'5" and 6' tall, with a weight capacity of up to 400 pounds. The seat-to-floor height is 20.5 inches, with a depth of 21 inches and a width of 23 inches between the arms. We recommend staying at least 50 pounds below the maximum weight limit to ensure durability, as uneven weight distribution can cause strain over time.
• Space-Saving Design: At 39.5 inches in width and 17 inches in wall clearance, the PLR5900 fits seamlessly into most living spaces.
• Premium Build: The chair weighs 232 pounds, but the backrest can be removed to reduce the weight by about 50 pounds for easier assembly. Assembly is straightforward, with plug-and-play connections for all its advanced features.

Advanced Features:

The PLR5900 combines cutting-edge technology with luxurious design:

This is particularly beneficial for users with hearing sensitivities, as it minimizes the need for loud TV volumes.
