Our verdict
The Golden Relaxer PR-766, in three lines

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.

01 - Fit

Who it's for

Buy it if

  • The user is tall and sinks too low in standard chairs
  • Your parent has one favorite position and struggles with fiddly controls
  • You like a softer, pillow-style back

Skip it if

  • The user is of average height: the MaxiComforter fits better for less
  • You want heat and massage included
  • You need the chair to lie flat

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.

02 - In detail

Four memory buttons: why that matters

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.

03 - In detail

Built for taller people

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.

04 - In detail

What you will pay for extras

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)".

Pros and the catch

What we like, and the catch

  • Zero gravity with MaxiComfort Ultimate Recline Technology as standard, per Golden
  • AutoDrive 3.0 hand control with four programmable memory buttons
  • Three-pillow waterfall back you can adjust, and an extra-wide chaise pad
  • Lifetime warranty on frame, lift and recline mechanisms

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.

What the maker says, word for word

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.

FAQ –

Golden Relaxer PR-766 questions

Is the Golden Relaxer good for tall people?

The 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".

Does the Relaxer have memory buttons?

Yes. Golden says the AutoDrive 3.0 hand control has four programmable memory buttons to save a favorite position.

What is the weight capacity of the Golden Relaxer PR-766?

400 lb for the Large size we priced. Treat it as a hard limit: it is what the lift mechanism is rated for.

Will Medicare pay for the Golden Relaxer PR-766?

Medicare Part B can cover the seat-lift mechanism of a lift chair (not the chair itself) when strict medical criteria are met and you buy from a Medicare-enrolled supplier that accepts assignment. Lift-Chairs.com sells it as a cash purchase. Read our Medicare guide before you order.
