Theorem Aroki Power Lift Recliner Chair
The Theorem Aroki is a premium quad-motor power lift recliner designed for people who want a generous range of powered positioning as well as assistance when standing. Four motors allow the backrest, legrest, headrest and lumbar support to be adjusted independently, so the chair can be fine-tuned rather than relying on a single fixed recline movement.
What sets the Aroki apart within the Theorem range is its combination of lay-flat recline, a two-stage lift mechanism and a powered extending footrest. That makes it particularly appealing where the chair will be used not only for sitting, but also for longer periods of relaxing, reading, watching television or resting with the legs well supported.
MoveSmart offers the Aroki in Petite and Standard sizes. Both are rated to 158 kg, but the dimensions differ meaningfully: the Petite has a 45.7 cm seat width and depth with a lower 45.7 cm seat-to-floor height, while the Standard increases to a 52 cm seat width and depth with a 50.8 cm seat-to-floor height. Choosing the right size matters for comfort, foot placement and ease of standing.
Independent Powered Positioning
Rather than moving the backrest and legrest together through one fixed sequence, the Aroki allows them to be positioned independently. You can raise the legs without fully reclining the back, recline the back while keeping the legrest lower, then separately adjust the powered headrest and lumbar support.
This flexibility is useful because the preferred position for reading or conversation can be quite different from the position used for watching television or resting. The powered lumbar adjustment changes the amount of support through the lower back, while the powered headrest can be repositioned as the backrest angle changes.
Lay-Flat Recline and Extended Leg Support
The Aroki can recline into a near-flat resting position, with an overall reclined length of approximately 183 cm. Its powered footrest extension provides additional lower-leg support, helping accommodate different leg lengths and allowing the chair to feel more spacious when fully reclined.
Because the chair has a substantial reclined footprint, it is worth checking the available room before purchase. The Aroki should have enough clearance to complete both its lift and recline movements without contacting walls, furniture or other obstacles.
Two-Stage Lift Assistance
The powered lift function raises and tilts the chair forward to assist the transition from sitting toward standing. The Aroki uses a two-stage lift movement, giving it a more progressive rise than a simple recline-only chair.
A lift chair should still be selected to suit the user. Seat height, seat depth, seat width and the person's ability to place their feet securely all affect how useful the rise function will be. MoveSmart is happy to help compare the Petite and Standard sizes before purchase.

Choosing Between Petite and Standard
The Petite is not simply a narrower version of the Standard. It also has a shallower seat and lower seat-to-floor height. That can make a substantial difference to how well the user can sit back into the chair while still keeping their feet comfortably supported when upright.
The Standard provides more width, depth and height and may be better suited where the Petite feels too compact. If you are uncertain, compare the measurements below with a chair that currently fits well, or contact MoveSmart for guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many motors does the Aroki have?
Four. The backrest, legrest, headrest and lumbar support can each be adjusted independently, allowing considerably more positioning flexibility than a basic single- or dual-motor recliner.
What is a two-stage lift?
The powered lift mechanism raises and tilts the chair in stages to assist the user toward a standing position. The correct chair size and safe transfer technique remain important.
Does the Aroki recline flat?
Yes. The Aroki has a lay-flat recline position and an overall reclined length of approximately 183 cm. Allow sufficient clearance around the chair for its full movement.
Can I raise my feet without reclining the backrest?
Yes. Independent powered adjustment means the legrest and backrest do not have to move together. This allows a wider variety of sitting and resting positions.
What does the powered lumbar support do?
It changes the amount of support through the lower-back area of the chair. Because it is powered, it can be adjusted from the hand control rather than requiring a fixed cushion or manual adjustment.
What does the powered headrest do?
It lets the user change head and neck support independently as the backrest angle changes, which can help maintain a more comfortable viewing or resting position.
Does the Aroki have an extending footrest?
Yes. The powered footrest extension adds lower-leg support and can be adjusted to suit different leg lengths and recline positions.
What sizes are available?
MoveSmart currently offers Petite and Standard. The Petite has a 45.7 cm seat width and seat depth, while the Standard has a 52 cm seat width and depth.
How do I choose between Petite and Standard?
Compare seat width, seat depth and seat-to-floor height rather than choosing on overall chair size alone. The Petite is lower and shallower, while the Standard provides more width, depth and height.
What is the maximum user weight?
Both current MoveSmart size options are rated to 158 kg.
How much room should I allow around the chair?
The chair reaches approximately 183 cm in its reclined position. Allow additional clearance so the lift and recline movements can operate without contacting walls, furniture or other obstacles.
How is the chair controlled?
The Aroki uses a wired USB hand controller with preset positions as well as individual adjustment controls.
Can the Aroki replace a medical or profiling bed?
No. It is a power lift recliner for sitting and resting. If a medical bed, prescribed sleep position or clinical pressure-care setup is required, use equipment selected for that purpose.
Is the Theorem Aroki available for delivery across New Zealand?
Yes. MoveSmart can arrange delivery of lift chairs to customers across New Zealand. Get in touch if you would like help confirming chair size or delivery arrangements before ordering.
