An electric-assisted leisure lifting recliner includes a back frame pivotably mounted to a seat frame unit. A footrest unit includes a connecting portion pivotably connected to a front end of the seat frame unit. First and second frames are pivotably connected to a base unit and the seat frame unit and are operable to move the seat frame unit vertically. A telescopic rod is pivotably connected to an actuating block and the connecting portion. An actuator pivotably connected to the actuating block can move the footrest unit to an extended state and to recline the back frame. When the connecting portion abuts against the seat frame unit, the telescopic rod can be shortened to independently recline the back frame. When a length of the actuator is shortened, the first and second frames and the seat frame unit are lifted, and a rear end of the seat frame rises.
