The AmeriGlide Rave is an ultra-compact stair lift designed to make restoring accessibility to your multi-level home as convenient and easy as possible! Homeowners with exceptionally narrow stair cases will love the ultra-thin design of this stair lift. The lift unit takes up only slightly more than 11 inches when folded, allowing able-bodied housemates and guests optimal access to the stairs. The AmeriGlide Rave is built for durability, with a tough all-metal case construction that withstands normal wear-and-tear far better than other comparable stair lift brands. The powerful rack-and-pinion drive system can safely transport up to 350 pounds of user weight, and an adjustable-height padded seat with durable folding arms ensures that you will remain comfortable during transit - the seat measures in at 19 inches wide and 14 inches deep.
The AmeriGlide Rave differs from many of our competitors' stair lift units in that the track attaches to the stairs themselves rather than the wall, and every point of contact uses a single bracket, making installation easier on homeowners and handymen. The Rave can be mounted on either side of the stair case to fit your exact preferences. The Rave is compatible with any standard household power outlet, and the battery that powers the unit charges at the top or bottom of the track, providing a reserve of power that keeps your stair lift going even in the event of a power outage. An arm-mounted operation switch is included as a standard feature, along with AmeriGlide's standard array of safety switches that prevent the lift from operating if an obstruction blocks your path. Finally, the Rave's seat swivels in either direction and locks parallel to the wall (the riding positon) or perpendicular to the wall (for getting on and off the seat).
Best of all, the AmeriGlide Rave is a product of American ingenuity and workmanship, and every unit is manufactured right here in the United States of America!
Stair lift users need a unit that is safe, comfortable, reliable, and easy to install. We think you'll agree that the AmeriGlide Rave satisfies all of your needs. To order your Rave stair lift, contact our mobility specialists today!

When I told my Dad that it was time to move his bedroom to the first floor, he was not happy. This was a great solution to keep him where he wanted to be but safely.

|
| Pros |
Once assembled, the unit operated flawlessly.
|
| Cons |
Instructions were a bit confusing at first. Perhaps some additional pictures could provide additional clarity. Recommend someone with no prior knowledge try to perform the assembly using the instructions provided to make any changes/addiitons required.
|
| Service & Delivery |
Outstanding delivery. A separate deliery of the Lift Chair arrived on time as well.
|
|
Overall, my experience with Ameriglide was very positive. My requests was acted upon with a very high level of professionalism.

| Handyman Dad from Southwest Michigan would recommend this to a friend. | |
| A Little About Myself |
86 year old jack of all trades
|
| Pros |
Was fairly easy to install. Our sales person was very helpful and patient with us as we took our time deciding on which stair lift to buy. We are happy with our choice of the Rave. The lift was purchased for my 61 year old daughter who because of the partial loss of a leg could no longer go up and down stairs to use the laundry or our family room. Now she is able to do both with ease.
|
| Cons |
Because she is still using a temporary prosthetic leg her ankle is stiff and as a result it is a little awkward to get
her foot on the foot rest at the top of the stairs. Hopefully this will improve with her final leg.
|
| Service & Delivery |
We received good service and prompt delivery.
|
|
I would as of this time recommend the Rave stair lift.

|
| Pros |
The unit works very smoothly, it's quiet & makes my life so much easier.
|
| Cons |
It looks ugly & announces to the world that someone in the home is handicapped. I wish the rail were smaller.
|
| Service & Delivery |
Everything arrived on time and it was installed the day after it arrived.
|
|
An unexpected bonus is that we can use it to haul clothes, bedding, laundry, etc. up the stairs using the chair rail.

I am a stay-at-home senior
|
| Pros |
I am so glad that I had a nice salesperson. It took quite a while for my decision but I made the right one for me. I picked the Rave. It was installed by my son-in-law with no problems. I lost no time in using it. My legs are giving me problems. I am trying to stay in my own home so I had the stairlift installed. The best decision I ever made.
|
| Cons | |
| Service & Delivery |
Delivery was by fed-ex. All arrived in good condition
|
|
I am glad that I asked all the questions. I also contacted other manufacturers. I was very happy with Ameriglide. I am also happy that it is manufactured in the United States.
