2.0 out of 5 stars Robust Stair Lift, July 3, 2009

By 

Robert Harvey (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: AmeriGlide Stair Lift AC Powered (Health and Beauty)

The Ameriglide is a scaled down version of the Summit Stair Lift. Summit makes this stair lift for Ameriglide. This model is similar to the TK Access Silver Glide that was discontinued a number of years ago.

The advantages of this stair lift is that it is robust, strong and quite reliable. It is also quite basic and thereby easily fixed. No circuit boards or fancy electronics.

The disadvantages is that it does not have many of the features that the stair lift user may need for their specific application and needs. The seat height is not adjustable, the track is quite wide and aesthetically it is quite basic looking.

If someone is handy, this lift could be self installed since the track comes cut to fit your stairs. However, if you have troubles lifting heavy objects, do not have a basic understanding of mechanical devices and are not able to follow instructions then self installation would not be a good option.

The other key factor is how professional is the on line vendor in after sale installation and service assistance. The ideal situation is to have a local vendor that can support your lift after purchase. Having said that, this lift is perhaps the easiest to install and has the fewest after sales service issues.

The ideal situation if you are stuck on self installation is to purchase from a company that you do not feel pressured to buy. Call a few of their previous customers or call the manufacturer and ask who best supports the lift after the sale. The manufacturer of the Ameriglide stair lift is Summit Lifts and you will find their site by searching google.

3.0 out of 5 stars Why would you ever buy a stairlift on the internet?, October 11, 2007

This review is from: AmeriGlide Stair Lift AC Powered (Health and Beauty)

This stairlift is sold under different names and at a variety of prices. Why would anyone ever buy a stairlift off the internet? This is an appliance that should be installed by someone that knows what they are doing and can give after sales support. It uses electricity and has moving parts and needs servicing and repairs periodically. This is not a 200.00 VCR or camera that you can just say, "oh well" when it does not work. You are investing your money to either get yourself or a loved one up and down a staircase safely and reliably. It is fairly obvious that by purchasing a stairlift on-line, the buyer is trying to save a few bucks. Trust me...there are other areas to save some money in your budget...this is not one of them. Find a local, reputable, dealer and buy from them and have them install it. You will be glad you did.
