Two chairs in the same price range. What separates them is how long you get to live with the chair before you commit, who it fits, and how it reaches your living room.

We put the Relaxe Zero-Gravity Shiatsu chair next to the Positive Posture Solara, on price, home trial, delivery, fit, warranty and features.

Why Relaxe comes out ahead

A year to decide, not 90 days.

Relaxe gives you 365 days at home to decide, with a full refund less the cost of return shipping. Positive Posture’s own return policy gives you 90 days, and a return comes with a 15% restocking fee and the cost of shipping taken off the refund. A chair this size is something you learn to live with, and a year covers every season and every mood.

It fits more people.

Relaxe is made for people up to 6’4" and 330 pounds. The Solara’s limits are 6’0" and 220 pounds. If anyone in your home is taller or heavier than that, only one of these two chairs is built for them.

It comes inside your home.

Relaxe delivers in 2 to 5 business days, and there is nothing to assemble. With the Solara, in-home white glove delivery and setup is about $400 extra.

Free in-home delivery, a $200 value.

The current Fall Season Offer includes it, so the chair comes inside your home, not just to the curb. You choose it at checkout.

Hundreds of owners, not a handful.

Relaxe is rated 4.8 out of 5 across 896 reviews. The Solara shows a perfect 5.0, from 8. Relaxe’s price and free in-home delivery are part of the current offer, so check the product page for today’s terms.

What you get with the Relaxe chair

Diagram of the Relaxe 53-inch SL-track following the curve of the body, compared with a standard S-track — The 53-inch SL-track follows your spine from neck to thighs.

The track runs the full 53 inches from your neck down to your thighs, with four shiatsu rollers working along it and automatic shoulder positioning that finds where to start. Twenty-eight airbags squeeze your shoulders, arms, hips, calves and feet. There is heat in the lower back, foot rollers for your soles, and one button that tips you into zero gravity, with three angles to choose from.

You are not stuck with a preset. There are 12 automatic programs and 5 manual techniques, with 5 speeds, 3 widths and 3 air pressure levels, all from a remote with a color display. Bluetooth, USB and memory card playback are built in, along with surround sound. A retractable calf frame adapts to different heights, and Relaxe recommends the chair for people from 5’1" to 6’4" and up to 330 pounds.
