| 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!
