Abstract
A seat, such as in a chair or bench, for indoor or outdoor spaces that makes sitting and rising from a seated position easier, safer and more comfortable for the elderly or individuals with temporary or permanent disabilities. A seat with a unique extended arm configuration having a plurality of secure support surfaces extending beyond the front edge of the seating surface used in conjunction with a seating surface that can be higher than conventional seats and has a seating surface that can be parallel to horizontal or tilted slightly forward. When used in a free-standing mode the extended arms are used in conjunction with a front leg support that extends beyond the front edge of the seating surface. In a non-free standing mode the extended arms can be used without the front leg support. The unique arm configuration or combination of unique arm and front leg support configuration provide increased comfort and safety when leaning back to sit down or pushing up to rise from a seated position.
