VivaLift! Elegance 2 PLR-975

The VivaLift!® Elegance 2 PLR-975M is a true-infinite lift recliner with a quieter, more classic look than the Premier or Ultra: a power headrest, power lumbar, a footrest extension, and a pocketed-coil seat in a rich walnut fabric. In the showroom, this is the chair we often suggest when someone wants full VivaLift! positioning without heat, massage, or a charging tray built into the arm.

Pride currently lists this chair as the Medium, PLR-975M, with a published 400-pound weight capacity and a height guide of 5'4" to 5'9". The seat is 21 inches wide and 21 inches deep, with a 20-inch seat-to-floor height. If you need a smaller or taller size, we will look at the Tranquil 2, Radiance, or Ultra rather than stretch this Medium to fit.

Comfort and everyday use

Pride redesigned the seat with pocketed coiled springs and zipper access, which is meant to improve both daily comfort and later serviceability. USB-A and USB-C ports sit on the outside of the right arm, so a phone or tablet can charge while you are in the chair. The hand control has an extended cord and magnetic docking, and it can connect through either side pocket. Fitted arm covers and a headrest cover come with the chair. Pride also lists the Elegance 2 as compatible with the VivaLift! app. A lithium battery backup is standard.

• True-infinite positioning with a power headrest, power lumbar, and extended footrest
• Pocketed-coil seat with zipper access
• USB-A and USB-C charging on the right arm
• Magnetic, extended-cord hand control that can dock on either side
• Fitted arm covers and a headrest cover
• Lithium battery backup and a 7-year prorated warranty

Positions and technology

The backrest and footrest move independently, so you can find a reading, television, or rest position without locking the whole chair into one angle. The power headrest supports the head, neck, and shoulders, and the power lumbar lets you add or ease lower-back support. The footrest extension is there so your legs are supported when you stretch out. This chair does not include VivaLift!® Tilt, heat, or massage; if those are the features you came in for, sit in the Ultra, Radiance, or Premier instead.

Sizes, fabrics, and who it is for

On Pride’s current pages this model is the Medium only, in a Badlands walnut fabric finish, for a published height range of 5'4" to 5'9". Wall clearance is a relatively compact 14 inches, and the overall width is 35.5 inches, which can help in a smaller room. This is a good chair to try if you want a refined, true-infinite VivaLift! recliner, you fit that medium height range, and you do not need the entertainment or heat packages of the higher-feature chairs. Bring the person who will actually use the chair, and plan a few minutes to try the hand control and check the wall clearance in your room.
