Golden Relaxer PR-766
Large · Golden fabric range; three-pillow waterfall back
9.3/10 · No. 5 of 14 · $2,039, Nov 11, 2026
The Relaxer is Golden's other zero-gravity chair, and the one we would pick for a tall user. The Large we priced fits 5'11" to 6'2" per the seller, with a deep 22.5-inch seat that sits 22 inches off the floor.
It costs $2,039 for the Large at Lift-Chairs.com on November 11, 2026 ($1,946 for the Small), with the same lifetime frame, lift and recline warranty as the Cloud.
The catch: like most Golden chairs, heat, massage and the footrest extension are options, and only the Small and Large were listed by this seller.
We priced the Large. Seller's guidance on height: 5'11" to 6'2" (Large); the Small is for 5'0" to 5'3". It is rated for 400 lb. Every size and seat measurement we found is in the specs below.
Two quick checks at home before you order: measure the seat-to-floor height of the chair your parent finds easiest to sit in today and compare it with the size you are looking at, then measure the doorway the chair has to pass through. The seller does not state a wall clearance for this model, so ask before you order if the room is tight.
Golden says every MaxiComfort chair comes with its AutoDrive 3.0 hand control, and on the Relaxer it has four programmable memory buttons. That sounds like a gadget until you watch someone hold two buttons for a minute trying to find "that position from yesterday". With memory buttons, the reading position, the TV position and the nap position are one press each. For a parent with arthritis in the hands or a bit of confusion with remotes, that is a real everyday win.
The Large Relaxer has a 22.5-inch-wide and 22.5-inch-deep seat, 22 inches off the floor, in a chair 48 inches tall and 38.5 inches wide. A higher seat helps a tall person stand, because the knees are not folded above the hips. The Small, listed for 5'0" to 5'3", was $1,946 the same day. Golden describes the chair as "the original power lift chair recliner" with MaxiComfort standard.
Lift-Chairs.com offered Golden's Tranquil-Ease heat and massage at $316 and a footrest extension option. Battery backup is listed as standard. Golden says the chair is "Proudly Made by Americans (with domestic and imported materials)".
The catch: At 48 inches tall and 22 inches of seat height, the Large is a tall chair, which is perfect for a 6-foot user and awkward for a 5'4" one. Pick the size carefully, and add $316 if you want heat and massage.

A lift chair is a heavy box. Plan where it goes, clear the path from the door, and check the carton for shipping damage before you sign for it.

Golden's listing at Lift-Chairs.com reads: "Golden Technologies FDA Class II Medical Devices are designed to aid individuals with mobility impairments." That is a device classification, not a promise about your health.
This is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor or physical therapist about what a lift chair should do for you, especially after surgery or a fall, and follow Golden's instructions for use. Medicare questions: read our Medicare guide.

Read the Journey Sleep Chair 2-Zone reviewThe Large is: the seller lists it for 5'11" to 6'2", with a 22-inch seat height and a 48-inch-tall back. For users over 6'2", look at the MaxiComforter Tall, listed up to 6'8".
Yes. Golden says the AutoDrive 3.0 hand control has four programmable memory buttons to save a favorite position.
400 lb for the Large size we priced. Treat it as a hard limit: it is what the lift mechanism is rated for.
