On time and well packaged
|

A pleasant surprise compared to most items similarly purchased today. Straightforward, well thought-out and engineered. Installation was not difficult for me and my son. Eighty -eight year old mother-in-law loves it. Simple, quiet operation.
Had great support from the company. All questions answered honestly and completely. Well worth the price. Did I say solid?

| Old man from Bozeman, MT would recommend this to a friend. | |
| A Little About Myself |
Civil engineer, computer tech, handyman
|
| Pros |
I like the relatively simple, yet strong design. It is basically an electric cable winch mounted on wheels in a track with a seat on top. It is easy to install and setup. The install video on the Web site is very helpful. I like the full AC option as there are no batteries to mess with.
|
| Cons |
I had to adjust the power cord to get the chair to travel as low as possible at the bottom end to meet my daughter's special needs. This need is probably very rare for most installs.
|
| Service & Delivery |
Easy to order. Delivered promptly and completely.
|
|
I ordered one stair lift to see how it would work. Then I ordered two more to take care of the other half of split level stairs and an inside stairway to the garage level.
Highly recommend renting a professional grade hammer drill to drill holes in concrete! Makes that job fast and easy. I used Tapcon concrete screws.

| A Little About Myself |
DIY kind of guy
|
| Pros |
The components appear to be very well built and sturdy. Ordering was a breeze, and everything arrived exactly as expected. It took about 3 hours start to finish, but probably could have done it in less time; I like to double & triple check everything I do.
|
| Cons |
None that I can really think of.
|
| Service & Delivery |
As expected
|
|
Very good product for the price. I was expecting to pay double the amount that I did, and I certainly didn't figure to be able to install it myself.
Happily, I was wrong on both counts.

| Pros |
works great, just wish the seat was two inches lower for my mom, she's about 5 foot 2 inches and can't quite reach the floor when its down on the lower level, and with Alzheimers she is scared to get out of the chair for fear of falling.

| A Little About Myself |
Retired VW mechanic now disabled
|
| Pros |
Quiet motor. Easy to operate. It is able to manage my weight 275 without problems. Feel very safe.
|
| Cons |
Have no problems so far.
|
| Service & Delivery |
The delivery was fast. No problems. But the service man was so far away, 6+ hours, that took longer. We didn't realize that the extra track was in one of the boxes, so he had to come back again. It took 2 weeks to get it installed. He did have experience with the lift. Just one of those things. Would be better if there were more service persons available.
|
|
Was unable to use steps and was in the house for months at a time! Now can come and go without harm. Like being released into life again. Thanks to my son for purchasing it for me. What a lifesaver!
