We purchased an elevator from AmeriGlide. The installers had to work with a new software system and did not get proper support. The chips in the elevator burnt up making the unit unsafe to use. I recently had a knee replacement surgery and desperately needed the use of the elevator.

Do not purchase an Ameriglide product. They claim 110% customer satisfaction, but this is not true. My sister ordered a stair lift for my brother-in-law. It was delivered 9/27/24. He was admitted to the hospital prior to receiving it and passed away on 10/3/24. I called Ameriglide customer service on 10/3/24. I explained our situation and was told we would receive a return call. I called again on 10/4/24. This time I spoke with an extremely rude woman who refused to transfer me to a manager until I questioned their 110% customer satisfaction policy. I was transferred to Tony, left a message, and did not receive a return call. On 10/14/24, I called again.
I spoke with Jessica. She said that we had missed the return policy by 1 day. I explained that the items were never opened and my brother in law (age 50) had died. She called Tony, and Tony said that there were no exceptions for their policy. I told Jessica to tell Tony that I would be warning families about purchasing from Ameriglide. My sister is now left staring at a stair lift in its box and a significant credit card charge while grieving the death of her husband. So much for 110% customer satisfaction…

Very poor qualities, cheaply made and we only got 2 charging strips instead of 4 and trying to get ahold of customer service is a joke. When you click it all they want is a review so here is your review. People do not buy this chair. You will be very dissatisfied.

I am a contractor who purchased an Outdoor Ameriglide elevator on behalf of my client, which we installed. The unit was promised to be plug and play ready to go by a Salesman named Chris **. Once it arrived we discovered several issues with it. To start, the install instructions were very basic and did not match the unit. Many of the holes in which to put screws to assemble the unit did not line up. The wiring was certainly not plug and play, with male/female plugs for various connections that did not match each other. After cobbling the assembly together and many calls to their tech support with whom you have to make an appointment and wait, we discovered several connections had been wired wrong in the factory. Replaced the Main controller board, and it finally worked, briefly.
Then another connection that was wired wrong was discovered because a grounding wire burned up. we had to replace the travel cable, all batteries, all push buttons, and chargers. Then it worked again for a while but intermittently. And then it just stopped again, this time with an 80 year old lady inside it in 90 degree heat, and she couldn't get out because the manual release locks for the doors require a flat blade screw driver and a pretty strong hand. Then, more troubleshooting. Finally after discovery of water collecting in the door and gate locks and shorting the unit out, we fixed the problem this time. Let's keep in mind that the door locks collect water and this is designed to be an outdoor unit. We had to drill holes in them to get the water to drip out. Also, the elevator itself leaks water into the cab, so try not to use your outdoor elevator while it is raining.
With the unit working now, I have been asking for a decision maker in the company to call me to discuss reimbursing my expenses for the many hours that myself and my electrician worked to correct manufacturing defects. CRICKETS!! NO CALL TO ME. NOTHING! A phone call to the company asking to speak to a manager or president yields nothing other than a nice lady who says she will pass on the message and that she cannot release contact information for higher up people. I did get an email for the president of Atlas which is the company that owns Ameriglide, and I sent him an email, but no reply, and attempts to send additional emails are now blocked to his email address. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THESE PEOPLE!!

I had been doing some research, so that we could have a stairlift installed at my church. Our church has two floors and when we have fellowships (food), unfortunately, some of our church members are not able to partake in these events. I had been talking to several different companies about the stairlifts they offered, what the church was needing, and we were needing the lift installed by a particular date due to an imminent event. All the reps were courteous, but Roger from Ameriglide went above and beyond in his kindness and guaranteed that the stairlift could be installed by June 30th.
I quickly realized that Roger was fibbing, so that he could get a sale. The stairlift was delivered on June 24th; I immediately email Roger from Ameriglide, and he responds with a number for the installation department. I call the installation department. I talk to a (unsure of spelling/pronunciation) Corriene/Koren (not sure). I told her our stairlift had arrived the previous day, and we were needing installed as soon as possible. I told her Roger had given us a guarantee that the stairlift could be installed by the requested date. I said “Respectfully, is there any way the stairlift be installed this week? Roger guaranteed that it could.” She got so offended that I said that.
I totally “ruffled this woman’s feather” because all the sudden she took a snarky tone with me. I did not want to argue with this woman; I just wanted to hang up and call Roger to see if he could do anything, so I just asked for her name, so I can keep track of everyone I talk to. She responded so horribly; this woman willingly demoted herself to the pettiest tone possible and said her name and for me to have a wonderful day. But, with sauce an immature tone. I was flabbergasted. We’ve spent over $4000 and all of the sudden we get this type of customer service.
I emailed Roger and no response. The stairlift was delivered on June 24, 2024. It is now July 5, 2024, and the stairlift still has not been installed. We still have not received a date for installation. I am so disappointed with the service from Amerglide. I now know why so many people have given negative reviews just as I have. No, I do not recommend purchasing any products from Ameriprise.

Terrible electronics; terrible service. When power goes out and it needs to be reset, it is a simple procedure, but the company wouldn't help. The installer is out of business. It took a thousand calls to finally find a company that would help (Precision Lift), but they no longer help, which means it took another thousand calls to find an independent service person. The latest issue is a solenoid when bad on door lock/unlock mechanism on one of the stops. Ameriglide wants to replace the entire locking mechanism, which is NOT broken. They want $2100 before shipping and labor. The solenoid is a $30 part at Digikey. I'm fixing it myself because what Ameriglide wants to do is NUTS. DO NOT BUY AN ELEVATOR FROM THESE BUCCANEERS.

I purchased an AmeriGlide Atlas Hercules 750 system. During the purchasing stage, the sales person assured me that there would be support and that they can provide maintenance and support. And that a technician would always be available to be deployed to help with any issues. About a year later the vertical platform fell about 2 feet towards the bottom position with people in it. Contacting Ameriglide did not help as they are only a sales façade and the real company is Atlas in Canada. After about four weeks of back-and-forth trying to reach the right people they determined that they stated that they do not send anyone and they only sent parts out. Experience to say the least dealing with them is absolutely horrible. Pay a little more and buy something that is supported.

Bought a walk-in tub ramp and tried to return due to a hardship of my customer, I never open the box and their return policy talks about sanitation as pic attached but they say, "NO. Can’t accept it back," I explained to the customer service Jessica and had to ask for a higher rank to evaluate my situation and gave me the email of Tony which I contacted via email. Took him 5 days to reply because I resend the email to only receive a No again, I would never recommend this company that takes advantage of the people, their return policy is wrong on the verbiage. Too bad choosing USA product then they wonder why we buy out of country products.

D ** sales rep failed to acquire correct measurements and guidance to install lift. When lift was returned unboxed and return confirmed, after 4 months no funds were returned had to get third party to get my money back. This company preys on its customer.

Did anyone work with the liar named Caleb? He sold us the wrong color and sent a defective/previously rejected unit that arrived broken. I have contacted the Federal Trade Commission and recently discovered that this form of "Elder Fraud" is punishable by 5 years in Federal Prison and a $500,000 fine. There is currently an active investigation involving this company and its employees.
