|
| Pros |
Cost and reliability. It just WORKS and is such a help to my father
|
| Cons | |
| Service & Delivery |
I live in Missouri and my father lives in Virginia. The company had a health issue with the installer, but another stepped in and installed the unit. Great service.
|
|
The cost for this stairlift is very reasonable given the quality of life improvements to my father. He resides in the basement apartment of a home and needs to come up a full staircase to get in and out of the home.

I am a 75 year-old semi-handicapped male. I have had 11 back surgeries and both lungs. operated for lung cancer. I currently have less than 30% of normal breathing capacity.

I don't have a lot of room left for people walking up the stairs.
|

Excellent delivery and a great installation as I contacted local people to do this. |

Wished I had installed this lift earlier. A great asset in my lifestyle. I have shown this to some local people already, and gave them your name and phone number.

| A Little About Myself |
50-year old son of stairlift user
|
| Pros |
Easy to install. Plugs into standard electrical outlet. Easy to operate.
|
| Cons |
Battery back-up was not included with the product. Does not have a retractable seat belt. Does not have an adjustable sliding footrest. Seat and foot rest needs to be designed for easy folding when not in use. Magnet for removable switch needs to be stronger or be able to be secured onto either side of the stairlift chair. |
| Service & Delivery |
Delivery was on time and the product was separated into three boxes as described in the video provided online.
|
|
The overall product provides the user the ability to be transported up and down stairs with ease and comfort.

Retired Minister. Full-time home handyman.
|
| Pros |
Easy to install. Customer service and factory rep. easily available by phone to answer any questions no matter how dumb.
Highly recommend this product and company.
|
| Cons |
Needs two people to attach main body onto track. I did it by myself but I wouldn't recommend it for the inexperienced person. Packing the instruction manual in the track box would make it easier to find.
|
| Service & Delivery |
Quick Delivery--one or two days.
|
|
Thank you AmeriGlide for making this lift 100% in the United States. Now I understand the name of your company. You can be proud to produce and sell this great product here in the USA. |

The installation service was excellent. It only took about 1-1/2 hours to install three chair lifts. |

It saved us from having to sell the beach house.

| JEM from Andover, VT would recommend this to a friend. | |
| A Little About Myself | |
| Pros |
We purchased a stair lift for my 91 year-old mother who had to go up stairs several times a day to use the bathroom. We were concerned with her learning how to use it, but she learned quickly and just loves it. She loves it so much she requested that we order another one for her other stairway that goes down to her family-room and laundry. It has made a great difference in her independence. |
| Cons |
We have found no real cons with the stair lifts.
|
| Service & Delivery |
Ordering was very easy thanks to your help. The stair lifts, ordered at different times both arrived in a very timely manner. Thanks to your instructions the installations went very smoothly. Can't thank you enough.
|
|
I wish all my ordering experiences were a good as this one.

| Kurt from Plymouth, MI would recommend this to a friend. | |
| A Little About Myself | |
| Pros |
Easy to install. Great directions.
|
| Cons |
The method used to keep the seat stowed in the upright position is not very good. There are only some protruding screws and it takes a lot of force to lift the seat past the screws. We used a bungy cord!
|
|
See above in the cons section.
