| Charity the daughter-in-law from Bon Secour, Alabama would recommend this to a friend. | |
| A Little About Myself | I help take care of my mother and father in law |
| Pros | very easy to use. We love everything about this lift itself. |
| Cons | This vertical left took 4 hours to put other..... It was even going to be preset to a specific height. Absolutely nothing was put other. We did have some directions that did not help one bit. Steps were completely left out. It was like tring to part together a jig saw puzzel with your eyes closed. |
| As for the lift itself we loved it. As for it being fully assembled... In my case that was a flat out lie. I would recommend this lift in the future only if you are up front about how the lift is actually assembled. | |

AmeriGlide replies:
Thank you for your review. We apologize for the assembly problem as we switched from a fully assembled unit to a partially assembled one and this was not communicated to our staff. We have corrected this for future customers. The Hercules lift can now be ordered to arrive fully assembled in a crate as an option. We have also improved our assembly instructions for those who choose to complete the assembly themselves. Again, we apologize for this mistake.

| My father lost his leg to a blood clot, he is 84 and doesn't have the strength to wheel himself up and down a long ramp. The lift is the best solution for this type of situation. Love it! | |

| A Little About Myself | Wheelchair dependent |
| Pros | Very easy to operate |
| Cons | Missed a needed option, Started rusting at screws, Review options carefully |
| Good function, easy to install. Be sure you research all the options. I was not aware the keyed switch was an option. (shows up on the elevations and not listed on the option list on AmeriGlide's order page.) Sales people very helpful. [...] | |

| none from Foxboro, MA would recommend this to a friend. | |
| A Little About Myself | Child of elderly |
| Pros | Sturdy, Safe |
| Cons | No cons so far |
| Service & Delivery | Delivery was prompt and in perfect condition. Some screws were missing but they were sent out promptly after a phonecall. Easy to install ourselves. Only concern is how it will be after a New England winter - will know next summer. |
| My father has Parkinsons and this was the best product we could have purchased. We had considered a ramp but this was less expensive, blends in with the outside of the house, and perfect for my Dad. It gives him the ease of being mobile with a walker and the future if a wheelchair is needed. Only concern is how this will fend being out in a New England winter. | |

| Pros | Sturdy, Safe |
| Cons | |
| I placed the lift in my mothers garage after she had fell down the steps and broke her leg. It is inside and still leaves plenty of room for her car so we can drive the car in and get her out in the garage. My mother is 75 years old and has no problem getting onto the lift and then up and into the house by herself with a standard wheel chair. | |

| Pros | Safe, Sturdy |
| Cons | Heavy |
| My parents home was ideal for a wheelchair inside, but the entrance is over four feet off the ground. This lift enabled us to bring my father home and have a safe entrance and exit from the house. We would have had to have built a fifty foot wheelchair ramp in a very tight space. This lift was the solution and the cost was almost the same. I would recommend Ameriglide to anyone who has this need. | |
