Hi neighbours, last night the leg part of the chair collapsed. On turning the chair upside down, it appears some plastic looking parts have broken on the centre functioning part of the leg raising/lowering mechanism.

The pictures may or may not help. They show the broken bits and where they came from.

I am looking for someone who may be able to repair this for me. Sadly it is out of warranty for mechanism parts.

I have heart failure and its accompanying fluid problem as well as neuropathy and need to sit with my legs raised.

Please private message me with a contact number, if you think you may be able to help.

Many thanks Cecilie
