Oscar Barwon Tilt in Space Recliner
Personalised lift‑recline comfort with zero‑gravity tilt‑in‑space
The Oscar Barwon Tilt‑in‑Space Recliner provides effortless leg‑lifting and a whole‑body tilt that keeps the hips and back at a constant supportive angle, similar to an astronaut’s launch posture. A three‑motor system delivers up to 24° of independent tilt‑in‑space, reducing spinal and joint pressure while offering smooth, button‑controlled movement.
Fully custom‑built to each user’s measurements, the chair offers up to 180 kg capacity, up to five motors, zero‑gravity positioning, full emergency battery backup and a wall‑saver mechanism that minimises required floor space. Premium VersoTela fabrics, memory‑foam upgrades, heat, massage and a range of accessories ensure long‑term comfort for home, aged‑care and clinical settings.

Features & Benefits
Design & Comfort
The Barwon combines a three‑motor tilt‑in‑space system with a 24° tilt range, delivering a zero‑gravity position that eases spinal and joint pressure. Smooth lift, recline and footrest operation is supported by a three‑roll back design: two soft fibrous rolls and a supportive foam roll, each covered by Velcro‑attached back cushions for easy cleaning and minor adjustments.
Adjustability & Options
Every chair is custom‑built to the user’s body measurements and includes extensive adjustments: seat width, depth, height and back height; arm height and footrest length; memory‑foam upgrades; cushion inserts and gluteal recess; heat and massage functions; tablet arm (left or right); head‑ and arm‑rest covers; optional no‑caster wheels, no‑show‑wood frame, dual‑motor upgrade (180 kg capacity), waterfall arms, and a choice of left or right controller.
Upholstered in premium VersoTela fabrics – antimicrobial, mould‑resistant, scratch‑resistant and fire‑retardant – with optional leather, vinyl or 4‑way stretch PU for specialised pressure‑relief needs.
Mechanisms & Power
The single‑motor wall‑saver mechanism allows lift, recline and footrest from one motor while moving the chair forward, reducing rear‑space requirements. Dual‑motor and three‑motor (up to five‑motor) configurations add independent recline, head‑rest tilt and lumbar airbag adjustment. All models feature full battery backup with two 9‑volt emergency cells and an optional rechargeable Li‑iron pack.
Safe working load is 130 kg for standard models; a heavy‑duty dual‑motor option lifts up to 180 kg. The chair carries a 2‑year warranty on mechanism, electrics and fabric, a 5‑year warranty on the timber frame, and is 100 % Australian made.
