The Air Chair Classic by Cobalt Health, also known as a Princess Chair, is a high-quality pressure relief chair developed for individuals who spend extended periods seated and are at risk of developing pressure sores or pressure-related tissue damage.

With an advanced air cell and foam system, this chair adjusts to the user's body to evenly redistribute weight and reduce pressure points - making it an ideal seating solution for aged care facilities, disability support, and post-operative recovery.

Built for maximum comfort and support, the Air Chair Classic features a reclinable backrest, adjustable leg and foot support, and tilt positioning to improve blood circulation and sitting tolerance. The side panels and headrest wings can be folded down for easy patient transfers.

The air cell technology automatically inflates to suit individual needs, offering reliable support without compromising shape or comfort. The ergonomic design and anti-bacterial, water-resistant 4-way stretch cover make it easy to maintain, hygienic, and comfortable even with long-term use.
