Product Overview
The Fromann Recliner Remote Hand Control is a dependable two-button replacement remote designed specifically for single-motor electric power lift sofa chairs. As a product from Fromann—a brand established in 2018 and recognized for its commitment to high-quality furniture accessories and ergonomic solutions—this remote offers a direct-fit connection using a standard 5-pin L-shaped plug. It serves as a practical, cost-effective alternative to original equipment manufacturer remotes, restoring full reclining and lifting functionality with consistent performance.
This remote control is ideal for individuals who need reliable operation of their electric power lift chair, whether due to mobility challenges or simply a preference for hands-free adjustment. With positive customer feedback emphasizing its value, durability, and effective replacement capabilities, the Fromann Recliner Remote supports everyday comfort and independence in home environments. Many users report that it fits well, feels sturdy, and performs just as well as—or better than—the original remote they replaced.
While some customers have noted minor differences in button size or tactile feedback compared to older models, these variations do not typically affect overall usability. The remote’s straightforward design ensures ease of use for people of all ages, making it a popular choice among seniors, caregivers, and anyone seeking a hassle-free solution for chair control.
Key Features
- Two-Button Operation: Features a simple interface with one button dedicated to reclining functions and another for activating the lift mechanism. This layout provides intuitive control over basic chair movements without unnecessary complexity.
- 5-Pin L Plug Connection: Equipped with a standardized 5-pin L-shaped plug that ensures a secure, direct wiring connection to compatible electric power lift sofa chairs. This design minimizes installation effort and reduces the risk of loose connections.
- Single-Motor Compatibility: Engineered exclusively for recliners that operate on a single motor system, offering precise control over both recline and upright positioning without requiring additional electrical components.
- Durable Construction: Built with robust materials that support repeated daily use, reflecting Fromann’s dedication to quality and long-term reliability in household accessories.
- Direct Replacement Design: Serves as a functional substitute for original remotes, allowing users to restore chair functionality quickly and affordably without needing professional repairs or purchasing entire new units.

Benefits & Use Cases
The Fromann Recliner Remote enhances the user experience by enabling easy adjustment between sitting and standing positions—a feature especially valuable for seniors, individuals with limited mobility, or anyone seeking greater comfort during extended periods of rest. Its plug-and-play setup means no technical expertise is required; simply connect the remote to your existing chair, and you’re ready to go.
Customers consistently report successful integration with their current chairs, confirming this product’s role as a trustworthy aftermarket solution. The remote delivers core functionality at an attractive price point, making it a smart choice for budget-conscious consumers who want to avoid expensive service calls or full-chair replacements.
Because it operates within a single-motor system, this remote is best suited for recliners that do not include dual-motor configurations—such as those with separate leg rest and back controls. If your chair uses only one motor to manage both recline and lift functions, this remote will provide seamless operation. Always verify that your chair uses a matching 5-pin L plug before purchasing to ensure proper compatibility.
While many users appreciate the sturdiness and build quality of the remote, opinions on button size vary slightly. Some find the buttons appropriately sized and responsive, while others suggest they could be larger or offer more tactile feedback. These differences are generally considered minor and do not impact overall performance for most customers.
Important Notes
- This remote is intended solely for use with single-motor electric power lift sofa chairs and is not compatible with dual-motor systems or non-electric recliners.
- Customers must confirm that their chair uses a 5-pin L plug before ordering to ensure proper fit and function. Incorrect plug types may result in connection issues or damage.
- While the majority of users report satisfaction with the product’s durability and value, button size has been mentioned as a point of variability—some prefer them larger or more pronounced than others.
- No batteries, mounting hardware, or additional accessories are included; the package contains only the remote control unit.
- Fromann focuses on delivering high-quality furniture accessories that enhance comfort and convenience in everyday living, and this product reflects their ongoing commitment to innovation and practicality.

Very useful product
This chair went from my grandpa, to my dad, to my mom, and then to me and my husband.We’ve had to put a recliner cover on it, and obviously replace the remote.This replacement remote is a God-send. It works really well, and does a tremendous job.The battery pack is very useful when the power goes out which happens frequently here in Ohio. Great value for the price.

So Easy!!!
I really love my recliner. I was so upset when the controller stopped working – thinking I’d need a brand new chair. My sister told me about this item and thank God she did! Inexpensive – especially in contrast to a new recliner! – and really easy to connect! I’ve had it for a year and I could not be more pleased. There’s a hook on the back of it that I guess would allow you to hang it from something, like a bed side rail if that what you’re using it for – it’s sort of bulky on a recliner’s arm, but that’s just a nit-pick. So worth it!!!

Works
Very easy to plug in and works smoothly. I’m being more careful with it than the controller that came with my chair.

Got it next day
I wasn’t sure this would work because the actual remote looked slightly different than the one that broke. I did find the exact match but it was a week out and my husband really needed his chair. I looked at the end connection and since they matched exactly and could come the next day I tried it. It works perfect. The cord on the original remote is straight and it cracked, causing sparking. This has a curly line (like the old telephone cords) and I think it will hold up much longer. It was perfect.

Great alternate replacement
We have a large multi recliner couch and the middle switch for one of the recliners always gets messed up as it gets sat on as the switch is part of the seat and it gets pushed in when you sit and wires inside gets ripped out . So finally got this and wired it directly – itâs a universal plug so it probably matches all such recliners . Now we have the remote sitting on the side and itâs easy to use.
