Lift chair (recliner) vs. hospital bed for recovery?

Hi all!  I'm scheduled for a full TT with some minor flank lipo and am wondering if I'd be better off renting a hospital bed, or one of those reclining lift chairs (both are electric and remote-controlled).  I guess a hospital bed would allow me some bend of my knees and would seem more like normal sleeping, but a lift chair could lift me up to a standing position or lie totally flat with an extended footrest.  What do you think?  And how long would you recommend I rent it for??  Thanks in advance for the input!  Trying to be prepared here!!!
