The ultimate in classroom seating, the Small Rifton Activity Chair with Hi-Low Base has revolutionized adaptive seating. A complete redesign of the highly regarded original, the Activity Chair is a direct response from your feedback. Therapists informed Rifton how the chair could be better and they listened. Specifically designed to meet the needs of many children, the Rifton Activity Chair provides appropriate seating for every classroom activity. All models of the Activity Chair have tilt-in-space functionality, great for both sit-to-stand & resting positions and feature back angle adjustments from 5º forward to 20º back. Perfect for use during feeding and at times of active learning or for certain types of therapy. It can also be really helpful for children with sensory processing challenges.
Features:
– Tilt-in-space as standard – encouraging both sit-to-stand and resting positions. The hi/lo base tilts 15° forward and 25° backward.
– Designed for fun – easy to remove pads made it easy to clean and a sturdy, stable frame means it can be where the action is
– Pick and choose the features you need – a wide range of different headrests and upper body supports are available
– Impressive growth – it’s possible to get years of service out of a single chair
– Springs on the standard base (in both backrest and seat) allow for self-generated, dynamic motion – ideal for clients with autism. They can be locked when not in use.
– Tool-Free Adjustments – A simple pen is all you need to detach seatbelt and harness clips, making these features easy to use, secure against child tampering, and free from the need for tools.
– Adjustments on the Go – Allows for on-the-spot adjustments while the user is seated, which is quicker and simplifies the process of making modifications. The seat depth can be adjusted safely and effortlessly while a child is in the chair, by simply pulling the handle located beneath the seat.
– Footboard Features – The footplate’s angle can be adjusted in 5° increments within a 20° range. The footboard supports weight-bearing through the legs and feet during functional sitting activities and accommodates sandals or ankle straps for specific positioning needs.
