The Joy of Christmas

Joy is a short, simple word that describes the best, most elusive dimensions of human experience. While
people often identify joy with a response to a specific experience, for example Christmas, these
moments are actually more accurately understood in terms of “happiness.” Joy is both deeper and more
encompassing than happiness. This year, more than ever, lets focus on the Joy of being together and celebrating each others love!

The Perfect Lift Chair for You

There are countless makes and models of lift chairs, (aka power recliners). Here are tips to decide which one is right for you! *Chair Size. How much space do you have? Do you prefer a smaller chair or a larger one that envelops you in a big hug? *Material & Coverings. Leather-type material is easier to clean while plush materials can be more comfortable. *Padding. If you have a bad back or sit for long periods you may want more padding. *Single vs. Double Motor. Double motors offer extra lumbar support. Come into our store and try out the different models.
