FAQ
The various Relax Zéro Gravité recliners are among the must-have products from LAFUMA MOBILIER. The difference with the other products lies in the dimensions offered. You can enjoy a longer and wider seat for greater comfort. The Relax XL recliners are therefore particularly suitable for our customers who are over 1m80 tall. By way of comparison, on the BeComfort® model, the fabric length is 171 cm for the standard model and 178 cm for the XL model. This means that the backrest is longer, for better head positioning. Those few extra centimeters make all the difference in the world, so you don't have to worry about your legs sticking out of your folding chair.
The width of the seat, as well as its depth, is also larger to guarantee maximum comfort. Here, LAFUMA MOBILIER is thinking of corpulent people who need a larger seat to be able to enjoy their product. Taking the BeComfort® model as an example, the seat width is increased from 48 cm to 53 cm. Relax recliners can support a maximum weight of 140 kg, thanks to a seat reinforcement bar.
Our XL models are available with different frames and different technical fabrics: Batyline®, AirComfort®, BeComfort®.
As an alternative to our XL recliners, we offer a 'relax' model with a refined design: the Evolution model, which is also suitable for tall people over 1.80m tall, as it does away with the crosspieces at the top of the backrest and the bottom of the leg rest. In addition, Evolution recliners in quilted fabric (AirComfort®, BeComfort®, Sunbrella®) have an integrated headrest.
A recliner is chosen in the same way as a mattress for a bed, depending on the user's build. This ensures optimum comfort, whatever the weight or height of the person who wants a Relax Zéro-gravité.
First and foremost, it's important to note that all our Relax chairs can support a maximum weight of 140 kg. We've chosen hard-wearing materials that can accommodate a wide range of body sizes. If you have any doubts about your ability to use a relax chair in complete safety, don't hesitate to contact our customer service department.
If you're a tall person, our XL recliners may be the right alternative. They are particularly suitable for people over 1m80 tall, thanks to their greater length. We've also chosen to give them a wider seat, so they can comfortably accommodate larger people. The seat height of the XL models makes them easier to install for people with reduced mobility. The EVOLUTION models are also good alternatives, as they do not have crosspieces at the top of the backrest and the bottom of the leg rest. So you won't have that uncomfortable feeling of a bar across your calves or upper back.
To choose the right recliner for your body type, you can also look at the different ways the fabric is attached to the frame. Lace or clip. Clip covers offer a firmer hold than lace covers, which are more flexible/ The Clip system is particularly popular with heavier people. It can effectively prevent the feeling of sinking too far into your chair, especially when sitting down.
LAFUMA MOBILIER recliners are designed to suit the widest possible range of users, so that most body types can find the right recliner for them.
The Relax Zéro-gravité recliner is without doubt the most emblematic product in the LAFUMA MOBILIER range. Some of our models are available in an XL version. Our team wanted to meet a specific need, particularly for tall people. The width of the chair has also been redesigned to offer optimum comfort.
So, by opting for an XL zero gravity recliner, you'll be able to take advantage of its greater length. Taking the Futura recliner as an example, the standard version has a fabric length of 171 cm. The XL version has a fabric length of 178 cm.
Comfort is also enhanced by the wider seat. Taking the same example, the seat of a Futura recliner is 48 cm wide and 70 cm deep, compared with 53 cm wide and 76 cm deep in the XL version. In short, you'll be able to enjoy a recliner that's longer but also wider, perfectly suited to a corpulent person.
It's also important to bear in mind that the folded chair will be slightly larger than a standard chair. When closed, the Futura recliner measures 96 cm in height in the XL version, compared with just 90 cm in the standard version. When the chair is to be stored in a place where space is limited, this size difference should be taken into account.
In terms of weight, all Relax Zéro-gravité chairs are designed to support a maximum weight of 140 kg. So there's no difference between the classic chairs and the XL chairs. If you're in any doubt about which chair to choose for your body type, don't hesitate to contact our customer service team. We'll be able to guide you towards the most suitable product.
The difference between a standard Relax Zero Gravity and a Relax XL is the size of the chair. People who opt for an XL version of a folding recliner benefit from a longer and wider seat. This type of product is particularly suitable for people who are taller than 1.80 m, or those with a heavy build.
For tall people, the XL version can make all the difference in terms of comfort. The positioning of the bars at the top and bottom of the chair is of vital importance for a comfortable position. This will avoid discomfort in the legs or a bar positioned at shoulder level.
What's more, the width of the seat means that heavier people can sit comfortably between the two armrests. Those few extra centimeters can make all the difference.
On the other hand, like all the products in our Relax range, the XL recliners have a 0 gravity position. This is made possible by a 127-degree tilt. It allows you to relax your back muscles and relieve the pressure on your vertebrae. In this respect, the XL recliner is just as comfortable as a standard recliner, since it offers the same position.
The quality of the fabrics and mattresses is also the same, whether it's a classic zero gravity recliner or an XL model. You'll find mattresses with breathable fabric (BeComfort®), ideal when the product is regularly exposed to moisture. This guarantees optimum comfort, especially when used poolside. You can also opt for models with a permeable fabric such as Batyline®, which evacuates moisture quickly and dries quickly.
With LAFUMA MOBILIER, you can choose the size that's right for you from a wide range of technical fabrics and colours.
