High Seat / Fireside Chairs
Elevated Comfort for Everyday Living
At Suite Deal, our High Seat Chairs are all about offering an easier sit-down and stand-up — without compromise. These chairs provide extra height, firm support, and excellent back posture. They’re ideal for anyone who finds low furniture uncomfortable, is recovering from illness, or simply wants a more supportive chair that fits their body and home.
We stock one of the largest ranges of high seat chairs and settees in the South East, with popular models available from stock for immediate delivery, as well as made-to-order options in a wide variety of sizes and finishes.
Below you’ll find what to look for, how to choose, and why so many local customers choose Suite Deal.

What Makes a Great High Seat Chair
Superior Seating Height
Elevated seats mean less bending at the knees and less effort rising up. A proper high seat should support you correctly while reducing strain.
Strong, Supportive Backrests
Look for designs that support the lumbar (lower back), with high or sculpted backs to offer comfort over longer periods.
Robust Frame & Padding
A sturdy internal structure with quality cushioning (foam, fibre, or hybrid fillings) helps ensure your chair keeps its shape and comfort for years to come.
Versatile Size Options
Everyone is different. That’s why we offer chairs in Petite, Standard, and Large (or Royale) sizes — to help you find the ideal fit for your body shape and sitting needs.
Fabrics, Leathers & Finishes
Choose from an enormous range of fabrics, waterproof and incontinence-friendly materials, stylish leathers, and decorative show wood trims — all designed to suit your décor and lifestyle.
High Seat Chair Sizes to Fit You
We know that no two people are the same — and neither are recliner chairs. That’s why we offer chairs in a wide variety of sizes:
- Petite: For smaller frames, with a shallower seat depth and lower height.
- Standard: Our most popular size for everyday use.
- Large / Royale: For taller or broader individuals who need extra space and support.
- Made to Measure: Select models can be tailored to your exact measurements for a personalised fit.
Correct sizing is crucial for optimal comfort and postural support — and our in-store and home visit experts are here to help find the perfect match.
Fabrics & Finishes to Match Your Home
Whether you prefer classic or contemporary, we offer a wide choice of materials:
Soft-touch woven fabrics
Hard-wearing leather and leather-look options
Waterproof and easy-clean finishes
Traditional patterns or neutral modern tones
You’ll find a style to suit every home — and our showroom or home visit includes fabric swatches to help you choose.
