So you\u2019ve decided to invest in a <\/span>stairlift<\/span><\/a>, but there are so many makes and models available that it can be a bit overwhelming to choose the best stairlift for you, and you might not know where to start!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When you\u2019re choosing your stairlift, there\u2019s lots of different factors to take into account; varying features such as speed, weight capacity, comfortability and price. Getting the best stairlift guarantees enjoyment of new and updated technological features, as well as durability, and helps you make the most of your investment.<\/span><\/p>\n To help get you started, we\u2019ve written this article on some our customers favourite makes and models of stairlifts;<\/span><\/p>\n The <\/span>Acorn 130 straight stairlift<\/span><\/a> is a popular option since it is easy to use, requires little maintenance, and is very dependable. The refurbished Acorn 130 stairlift includes a 12-month warranty as standard; extended warranties are also available. Starting cost is around \u00a32,200 for a new model, which can increase depending on additional personal requirements. The maximum weight capacity is 159 kg.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Due to the <\/span>Handicare 1100 Stairlift<\/span><\/a>‘s ultra-slim profile and small size, it can be installed close to a wall while still giving enough space for other stair users to move safely. Total costs depend on customer personal requirements and\u00a0 configuration of the staircase. But the basic price starts at \u00a31,400 for a <\/span>reconditioned model<\/span><\/a>, and \u00a31,995 new. It has a maximum weight capacity of 140kg.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The<\/span> Flow X<\/span><\/a> is an extremely popular model, it\u2019s precision engineered for excellent comfortability and works really well for <\/span>narrow<\/span><\/a>, curved staircases. The stairlift chair has a large, comfy backrest and an ergonomically designed seat area.It doesn\u2019t only look and perform well, but it is host to a number of extra safety features – such as armrest detection, emergency lowering button and a soft start\/stop system. The maximum weight capacity is 125kg, and prices start from \u00a36,600.<\/span><\/p>\n An innovative model indeed! This is truly one of our most sought after Stairlifts. The <\/span>Handicare 2000 Curved Stairlift<\/span><\/a> myth busts the stereotype that stairlifts look ugly and out of place. There are lots of design options available, and the rail itself is completely tailored to your curved staircase. The maximum weight capacity is 115kg for a standard model, but there is also a <\/span>heavy-duty version<\/span><\/a> available which increases max weight to 137kg. New prices are around \u00a35,100.<\/span><\/p>\n Platinum stairlifts are among the most advanced and innovative available, so it\u2019s no wonder that one made its way to being a customer favourite. The <\/span>Platinum Ultimate Curved Stairlift<\/span><\/a> is truly top-of-the-range, and is the first stairlift to offer forward-facing travel. This stairlift also has something known as a \u201cFirst Step Start\u201d which means that the stairlift starts on the first step, leaving a bit extra space on the bottom of the stairs. This stairlift starts at \u00a36,600 making it one of the more expensive on our list, but it is worth every penny. This stairlift is also available in two weight options – 120kg limit as standard, or 160kg as a <\/span>heavy dut<\/span><\/a>y version.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n We hope that this guide has been helpful for the start of your stairlift purchase journey.
