Pride VivaLift Legacy 2 PLR-958 Lift Chair

The Pride VivaLift Legacy 2 is Pride Mobility's Saville-fabric power lift recliner in Medium PLR-958M and Large PLR-958L. Westin Healthcare sells it and delivers it for homes in Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. Pride has stopped making the Legacy 2. The VivaLift Tranquil 2 takes its place.

Both sizes are rated at 400 lbs (181 kg) and have true-infinite positioning, a power headrest, power lumbar, an independent backrest, and a standard footrest extension. A lithium backup pack keeps the chair usable if household power fails. Saville Wine is exclusive to this collection.

Who this lift chair is for

This lift chair is for a person who stays at or under the 400 lb rating and wants a quieter Saville VivaLift rather than heat pads or a wireless phone pad. Choose Medium if the 5'4" to 5'9" (163 to 175 cm) guide and 22 by 21.5 inch seat fit. Choose Large if you need the 23 by 22 inch seat and the 5'10" (178 cm) and above guide.

If you want a current Pride chair in more than two sizes, start with the Pride VivaLift Tranquil 2. If you want a current 21 inch medium, see the Pride VivaLift Metro 2.

• Infinite-position VivaLift with a memory toggle remote
• Two Pride sizes: PLR-958M and PLR-958L
• Saville Brown, Saville Grey, or Saville Wine

Positions and controls

The Pride VivaLift Legacy 2 uses true-infinite positioning. The backrest and footrest move independently, so the feet can sit above the heart. Pride's toggle remote stores two favourite positions. There is no heat system and no hideaway wireless pad.

The lithium backup is there so the lift still runs when the room loses power. The chair is not a substitute for a caregiver when the person cannot use a hand control.

Legacy 2 or Tranquil 2

Legacy 2 is the discontinued Saville VivaLift in two sizes. Pride's current size-ladder chair is the Tranquil 2, which adds Petite Wide and Large/Tall. A 3-position Pride Elegance such as the LC-570 keeps the back and footrest on one path.

Funding help for a lift chair in Ontario

Ontario's Assistive Devices Program (ADP) does not fund lift chairs, so plan around other routes. Funding that may help instead: March of Dimes Canada, Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), extended health plans, and community programs, and a lift chair's lift mechanism may qualify as a medical expense on a Canadian tax return when prescribed. Westin Healthcare's staff work with these programs every week and will point you to the right route for your situation. Visit our funding page or call (905) 451-7743 to talk it through.

Delivery and setup in Brampton and the GTA

Westin's own team delivers and sets up this lift chair across Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. We bring it in, place it, and show you the hand control before we leave.

You are welcome to visit our Brampton showroom, or Mobility Specialties, our partner store in Etobicoke, if you would rather see a lift chair first. For a scheduled in-home setup, call (905) 451-7743 and we will book the next date that works. Same-day delivery is offered through our hospital bed rental service; purchased lift chairs are delivered and set up on a scheduled date.

A lift chair is larger than small parcel goods. The Canada-wide free ground-shipping offer on smaller goods does not apply. Inside Toronto and the GTA, White-Glove Delivery (bring-in, unwrap, test, take packaging away) is described on the shipping policy. Any charge is confirmed on your order.

Service and warranty

When something on the chair needs work, you call the shop that set it up, not a US parts desk. Westin Healthcare has a service and repairs department. Our technicians come to the home or workplace.

What Is the Warranty on the Pride VivaLift Legacy 2 PLR-958 Lift Chair?

The Legacy 2 carries a 7-year pro-rated limited warranty for the original purchaser. It also has a lifetime term on the lift and scissor mechanism and the lift frame, and 12 months on the lithium backup pack. Fabric sits outside that term. Exceeding the 400 lb rating voids the Pride warranty. We handle the claim with you.
