The Rubex Electric Powered Stairlift at a Glance:
- 350-pound weight capacity
- Motor and gears tested for 30,000 cycles (16 years)
- 24 volt Class 2 grounded controls throughout
Comfortable and Easy to Use. With a movable footrest and a deluxe backrest and seat with thicker padding, this stairlift offers unmatched comfort. The 180-degree swivel seat lets you get on and off effortlessly at top and bottom landings. Once you're seated, just push the control button and let the high-tech nylon wheels provide a smooth ride—every time.
Built for Safety. Every detail of our electric powered stairlift is designed with your safety in mind. We build safety sensors into the footrest, include a locking mechanism in the seat belt, and give the motor instant reversing capability. With automatic limits at each end of the track, standard mechanical and electrical slack cable safety devices, and a failsafe mechanism that prevents operation until the seat is in the correct position, this stairlift is one of the safest on the market today. It is ETL listed and meets ASME A17.1 and A18 safety standards for public and private use. We also include call stations for both top and bottom landings, which can be mounted to the wall or to the floor. Read more about AmeriGlide stair lift safety standards.
Easy "Homeowner" Installation. Unbelievably, the AmeriGlide Rubex electric powered stairlift simply plugs into the nearest outlet. No special wiring is needed! You can install it on either the right-hand or left-hand side of your staircase; you can even switch it from side to side without any additional parts.
Sleek Design Compliments Any Decor. The AmeriGlide Rubex electric powered stairlift is available in an attractive almond finish with your choice of vinyl seat color. When not in use, you can easily fold up the padded seat and flip up the footrest and your stairlift only takes up 14 inches of space. It's so compact, other people in your household always have full use of the stairs.

The installation instructions were very good. After installation, the upper cam switch was not adjusted properly, causing the unit to be disabled. I mounted the operating switch for the unit under the right arm rest. I did not care for the switch to be loose, sometimes falling down below the seat.

The adjustable black plastic stop for the top of the track to automatically stop the chair would loosen itself, so my installer simply drilled a hole and screwed it in place.

I like how quiet it is, and how safe it feels to ride in too.

This product could not have come at a better time. My mom and dad were having trouble climbing the stairs from the basement to the first floor of their ranch home. Their laundry facilities were in the basement so the choices were to invest in a chair lift or lose a bedroom by hiring a plumber to put the laundry equipment upstairs. The installation of a lift chair was an obvious choice. We performed the installation ourselves. It wasn't hard, however, it did take about 5 hours. The chair has given my parents their independence they need to accomplish their daily tasks. Thanks so much!

Beneficial in getting packages to living level of house. So easy to use that my 3 year-old grandson has mastered the use of the unit and I feel confident he is safe when he "goes for a ride on grandpa's chair." On the negative side, I felt the wiring routes and cabling could have been placed, more shielded, or conduitized for better protection. I had a minor wiring problem with a pinched and rubbed through abrasion cut on the control cable that was routed in the tracking channel. Some tape and heat shrink repaired the break to restore operation.

Live second floor. Elderly. Stroke survivor.
|
| Pros |
Safe, Handy pkg carrier, Safe speed, Sturdy
|
| Cons |
Keys too small. The Upholstery is tacky.
|
|
Very pleased. The stair lift feels safe to use. Very good speed. Footrest folds up to make room on stairs when needed. Relatively easy upkeep. However, keys far too small for elderly who have problems seeing and handling small objects and fitting them into keyholes. I would suggest a large thingummy be added to key to make it easier to handle. Also, upholstery does not look sturdy enough and in some places looks it badly installed.

The chair lift was installed, to allow our handicap son access to our basement. Installation was a breeze. Customer service was terrific. It was a pleasure doing business with them.

Grandma uses the stairlift to go up and down the stairs. It is very easy to use. This makes it possible for her to get out of the house, something that she could not do before. |
