      Stannah was a recommendation from one of my neighbors who had put it in. They were extremely pleased and they happened to have the unit in their home, so I was able to see it in operation. I called Stannah and the salesperson was very helpful and on top of things. He was very thorough and answered any questions. The installer was great. He gave me a good demonstration of how to operate the stairlift and everything was cleaned up when he left. The stairlift is doing the job. I'm very pleased with Stannah and I'd recommend them.

      The Stannah rep who came to our home was nice. We were gonna give him a call because my husband felt a little bump in the stair lift and see if that's normal or if we need to get it checked. But other than that, it's been working great. It’s been a big help. We've told the visiting nurses if anybody needs one, that they should call the gentleman who came here.

      I have trouble with my knees and I had blocks of wood on the stairs so that I could go up half a step at a time, which worked very well, but the occupational therapist came in and recommended that I get a stairlift. Everything went really well during the sales visit with Stannah. The rep was very informative and knowledgeable. Also, the installers were very good.

      My favorite feature of the stairlift is the retracting bar at the bottom. I had a stairlift before for my husband and the rail went right down across in front of the doorway. I couldn't use my doorway to bring my husband into the dining room with the wheelchair. When I got this one, I said I was going to need a retracting rail and this one really works good. The fact that it's all closed in and doesn't need the servicing also sold me on this one. The stairlift makes life easier. I can get up and down the stairs, do the laundry, and go for my shower much easier.

      I'm a building inspector by trade and I've seen a few of Stannah stairlifts installed on jobs and I liked what I saw. I contacted Stannah and met with the rep and he was wonderful. He explained everything that I needed to get done and it was really nice. They ordered it and we set up a delivery time. Once the stairlift was delivered, the installers said they were coming at 8 o'clock in the morning. They got here about five minutes to 8:00 and they assembled the material out in the garage and were very neat. They swept up after everything they did. It was like a puzzle and they put it together piece by piece. They marked it all out first, did the bolting, installed, and did the wiring and all the testing. At the end of the day, it worked fine and they gave us a lesson on it. I like the functionality and the performance of the stairlift. It's for my parents and they're getting used to it. It helps my mother drastically who can't even walk upstairs.

      I was in the hospital for four days. Everybody recommended I do something because I have to use my stairs. I had bought a Stannah a number of years ago and I never used it, but I saw the quality of it. I sold it. I thought they were good stairlift, so that was why I bought the one I did. The Stannah rep came out and told me what it was gonna cost. Originally, I was gonna buy the gadget that goes on the bottom, so it doesn't have a piece sticking out. Then I changed my mind, and I didn't get that. That reduced the cost somewhat. I gather she measured it because when they came and installed it, they knew the length of the track and then everything fit perfectly. The people that installed it did a good job. The stairlift works fine. It minimizes the chance of falling down the stairs. I just came back from a trip and when I packed my suitcase, I put it in my lap when I rode the stairlift down. That made it a lot easier to get my suitcase up and down the stairs.

      I did an online search and I liked Stannah’s seven-day return policy. I looked at a close competitor and they said nobody does that. I said Stannah does and asked if they could offer me that guarantee and they said no. So I went with Stannah, even though it was more expensive. The sales rep was very nice, thorough and had her stuff together. She gave me a little discount and everything she told us was true. I got the straight stairlift and it fits perfectly. It was exactly what my wife and I were looking for. The installer was wonderful. He'd been working for Stannah for many years and knew exactly what he was doing. It took probably an hour and a half and it’s quality built. It feels great.

      We love the rep from Stannah. The sales visit was wonderful. I appreciate that she came here a year ago and I kept all of her information. Then, when we were ready to get the chair, I called her. She called me back promptly and she came over again. She had to measure a couple of times. We had an old chair on the stairs that the motor went out. So, the first time, the old chair was on the stairs, and they told her that we needed to remove that old chair. Then she needed to come back and re-measure, which she did. She was very pleasant and she gets back to me whenever I call her about anything. She's a very nice person.

      We have not yet received our chair. I talked to the lady yesterday and she told me the chair is in town and someone will be calling me about installation and I haven't received that call as of yet. We're looking forward to the installation. Overall, I like Stannah because they seem to have been in business for a very long time. I looked at this for a long time and looked at different companies and I was impressed in how long they've been in business. So, they've seen it all. I have a different kind of stairs.

      We moved into a new house and my laundry is in the basement. I don't walk that well and it was not accessible to me. When Stannah's sales rep came out, she was fabulous and not pushy in any way. I explained to her what I could afford and what we were looking for. Then she took care of everything. We had no desire to even look at anywhere else because she explained everything so well to us and their stairlift was what we were looking for. The installer was fabulous, too. He had it done in no time, explained every detail to us, and had us try it. Our experience couldn't be any better and we love the stairlift. It fits our needs and it's so easy to use. We have no complaints at all. I'm supposed to start making monthly payments to Stannah but I haven't received the bill yet. I called them about it, but they said it hadn't been a month yet. We put so much down then we were going to finance the rest of it over not that many months.

      John, my partner, is 91 and we live in a three-story house, so he needed help for going up and down the stairs. Stannah's sales rep was very good and nice. Whatever he promised was exactly what we got and he was very attentive to everything. Our main staircase is a very important part of our entry hall, architecturally, and we were worried that the stairlift would really interfere with the aesthetics. But it turned out to be much less of an impact than we expected. We're satisfied and the chairlift has worked really well for John.

      My mom has trouble going up and down the stairs. I did a comparison of different companies and the prices were very similar. But I liked that with Stannah, I was not going through a third-party dealer. I was dealing with Stannah directly and that made the big difference for me. The sales rep was competent. She seemed to know the product. So she was helpful. We purchased the curved stairlift and it goes all the way around the stairwell. But it hasn't been installed yet. I was told that it's coming into the local office today or tomorrow, and they have to get a crew to install it. So, that's been about four weeks. If it actually arrives, it'll be four weeks to get it fabricated and delivered locally. I don't know how long it takes to get a crew out to the house to install it.

      We have a sister-in-law that had failing health problems and she was having extreme problems trying to get up the steps, so that led us to look around for a stairlift company and a friend of mine recommended Stannah. I called them up and the gentleman that I talked to was very pleasant on the phone. Then they came out and gave us an estimate. There was no pressure. We looked around a few other places, and we decided we would call Stannah. The sales rep was very professional. My son was there when he came and gave a complete A to Z. He didn't rush us. He answered all the questions and was very pleasant. My sister-in-law was getting great pleasure out of the stairlift, so everybody is happy. It impacts my wife's life a lot because she takes care of her and it's a lot of physical work. But now, with that lift, it has made her job a lot easier.

      I had an awesome experience with Kevin, the salesperson. Stannah is a family-owned business and they're very personable. They aim to please. They are very good people. The day they said they were coming out, they came out. They were on time. The installation didn't take them a long time. They didn't complete it and they let us know. There was another piece in there and in about another week, we're looking for them to come and complete it.

      In the meantime, we can still use the stairlift. The only thing is that at the bottom of the lift, by being such close quarters, it was something extra that they had to do. So, when you get ready to go back up, you have to do something with your hand instead of automatically pushing a button until they can get that piece in. It's a small house and at the bottom, it wasn't enough room for them to complete what they had to do. We just had to improvise for a minute. No inconvenience, though. It doesn't keep my brother-in-law from going up and down the stairs. From the installation, it was professional. They made sure that it operated several times before they left. My brother-in-law is very light. But then he's got a grandson that's kind of heavy, so they made sure that he could get in it and ride up and down with no problem. The stairlift was tested well and it's good quality.

      Stannah is very competitively priced and they have very good customer service. The salesman and the installer were very good. The rep came to the house, made it up, and gave me an on-site estimate with no problems. The installation went well, too. The installer came here at 11:00 and we were all finished up by 4:00 in the afternoon. It was only one person, one of the girls. She's been doing it for four years.

      So far, so good. No issues at all with the stairlift. It's real quality. We've only been using it for three weeks now. It’s for our daughter, who's 38, who got in an automobile accident. One of the benefits, it has an automatic lower track that raises out of the way. We're a little limited on space by our front door. The track, you go up with it, the track lifts up and gives us a clear hallway. The design is really good. They're a little more expensive than the others. But it's very good. We also rented it for six months with an option to buy, which was a great option.

      I'm an occupational therapist and the stair climber we got from Stannah is for my dad who is 91. I work in acute rehab and one of my patients was telling me they had such a great experience with Stannah that we decided to give them a try. Working with them was really easy. It seemed like when I had done my research, the price was about in the same ballpark as all the others. But I liked that Stannah also offered used products. So they had options for pricing.

      They were really thorough coming out to my parents’ house, explaining how they were going to install it, and what it was going to look like. They gave them some really good options, which they were willing to repeat with me, because mom doesn't have a great memory and dad doesn't remember much. So even though my husband went out when they were doing the consultation, they still called me and went over everything. Then we made the decision and everything went very well. Things were very well-communicated and they even texted us when they were within 10 minutes of getting there to do the work. They gave us an estimated time and they were within that time of how quickly it would be put in. We were hoping it would be put in quicker, but they told us right upfront that they had a two-week lag time and we were okay with that. Dad was able to stay downstairs when we got him from rehab.

We ended up purchasing a straight stairlift from them and it fits great in our home. During the installation, the installer went about his business and we didn't have a lot of interaction. He knew what he was doing, so it went quite well. But I would recommend to Stannah that the lower footrest be turnable when the seat turns at the bottom or top of the stairs.

      We needed to buy a stairlift because my mom became ill and could no longer use the stairs. We chose Stannah because I looked on ConsumerAffairs for well-rated stairlift companies and Stannah was the best-rated. The person who came was very helpful and friendly. She measured our stairs and talked to us about our options. It was a great experience overall.

      The installation took a while, but the guy was very efficient and cleaned up after himself. We have a straight up and down staircase and it's very wide, so the stairlift doesn't take up much room. We're still able to go up and down the stairs quite easily. We also chose a good color for the stairlift. It matches with the wood on the staircase.

      We're very happy with the functionality and performance of the stairlift. We've only had it a few months, but it works very well. My mom is able to use it without assistance, which is really great. There are lots of automatic features, which are very helpful for people with mobility issues.

We had a problem with the wiring though. When the guy came to install this second stairlift, we noticed the wires were hanging on from underneath that rod that goes up. It had a lot of loops in it that you could see it. There was a safety issue on that part. We asked, “Can you please put extra clips so the wires don't get caught and we don't notice them?" But the installer didn't listen to us very clearly. The wire got caught and cut off. We called yesterday and they were doing their best to try to come out yesterday. They came today and put a whole new wire in and a lot of clips. We're happy. Stannah is in our life. It's made our life much easier.

      I had a couple of people out to give quotes and liked the sales rep with Stannah. I also like a couple of features on the stairlift. It has an extendable rail and it's up for six steps. My mom has a little issue with it, making sure it clicks into place but that's user learning curve. However, it takes up more space in my hallway. It's hard for my husband and I to get around it. That should have been discussed with us prior to the installation. No one's ever called me about it as well.

      I had someone else in the house but didn't have the answers. The other stairlift that I looked at was $2,000 cheaper but when the Stannah salesman came in and showed me the shortfalls and what the safety factors with the Stannah stairlift were, my wife and I went with them. The installation was fantastic. They explained everything and were neat. However, I use a cane and the stairlift a little bit tricky with the cane. I wish there was something to place a cane, a device or a cup. I also wish my stairwell was a bit wider. They put in a chrome rail stairlift up. They normally use bronze, and I pointed out to them that they put in bronze. They quickly came down and said, "You keep this with the bronze. When I get the silver in, I will replace it." That was great.

      I broke my leg severely and on six months of recovery, and I live on the second floor. I could not get up and down my steps. I’m on no weight bearing for a minimum of four months and it's gonna be a long process. Also, my husband has MS, so we knew eventually we would need a stairlift. Stannah has been in the industry of lifts for many years. They manufacture, install, service and warranty them, which stood out to me over anyone else because it's a one-shop deal that I don't have to worry about if something breaks. I just call them. The sales guy that I talked to was amazing. He helped me with getting moved up a little bit faster with the schedule because I was literally trapped in my home. He explained everything in detail. The person who was supposed to call me to do the scheduling had a family emergency for three days, so the sales guy kept me informed, calling me even on a Saturday.

      When the installer was coming that day, the sales guy wasn't supposed to be bothering with that anymore. But he stayed in touch with me the entire time even through the installation and afterwards. He called to ask me if everything was okay. He followed me through the entire thing. Even when I wasn't getting phone calls from the installers to give me my schedule. Or they gave me a date and nobody called to tell me when and what time. He was just very personable. He needs to be told. He used to be an installer and got moved over after many years to be in sales. The installer was great. He showed me everything I needed to know and was quick. He was in and out. He accidentally put a nice-sized mark on the wall and he was very upset about it. We told him not to stress over it. We have paint and we can cover it.

I found Stannah and I contacted the sales representative. He was receptive. He said they can put it in in one week and I couldn't believe it. So I decided I was gonna go with him, and luckily so. I got everything I wanted right away. To get up to the house, we can use the front door and another way is a stairway inside the garage up to the kitchen, which was more protected. So that was a good idea. The two mechanics who came and put it in were totally professional and got it done in three hours. Everybody was excited about the stairlift and it worked well. It’s very good. It's a little learning curve but it’s nothing. Though if you get an older person, it gets harder to learn.

I'm not terrified my dad's gonna fall down the stairs and break his hip. It's given him a lot more mobility. It needs a little adjustment at the top, but that's okay. Their indoor models have a powered rotate, which is awesome, and it would be nice to have it on their outdoor model. You have to rotate the chair at the top to get in in front of it. That requires a lot of dexterity. I'm only 40 but at 91, it's a little harder. Although my dad's gotten used to it and he's doing better with that, that part is a little challenging. The other thing is if he leaves the chair rotated out to get back in it at the top, it locks out the call boxes on the bottom and top. You can't bring it back down.

The Stannah stairlift goes to the basement which goes to the garage. It's impacted my mom's life a lot because she couldn't get out before and we'd have to help her up the stairs and we're so afraid that she'd fall. And every time she had a doctor's appointment, we had to use a wheelchair and call my brothers over and physically pick up the wheelchair and bring it down the front stairs, down the lawn, and into the car. So, we did have to involve other people for her to get out and we don't have to do that now.

      The gentleman that came said, "Don't ever take this out. No matter what happens with your mom or whatever. You will need it. It's amazing what could happen. You could hurt your foot, hurt your leg, and you can use it." The easiest way to get into the house is through that stairway, and we now use it when we go grocery shopping. Instead of making four trips up the stairs, we'll put the grocery bags on the chairlift and raise it on up. It's very convenient. We have an elderly dog that we normally carry down the stairs.

He did not leave until I totally understood what had gone wrong.

      The installers did a great job putting the stairlift in, and it works great. My mom likes it. Both my mom and dad use it, and it really helps them out a lot. I'm grateful to have it. Stannah is a great company, and I really like them a lot. They were a very professional company and very nice to work with. I would highly recommend them to anyone that I know that would need a stairlift.

      I got a Stannah stairlift originally for my parents a few years ago when they needed it. Then my mother-in-law moved in with us and she needed it because our stairs are pretty steep. She also needed it for her mobility, and it's worked out great. I had knee surgery, so I've been using it for a couple of weeks. It works great. I have the little remotes up and down. It hasn't failed us yet. The quality seems fine.

      My Stannah stairlift is giving me additional comfort. I don't even go up and down the stairs anymore. I just use the stairlift. I noticed the black streak that it makes on the rail as it goes up or down. Also, I've been wondering if it has slowed down a little bit since I got it. So, it's been on my mind to call, but I figured I would wait a little longer. Other than those, I really have found that it's been a tremendous help to me. As far as the salesman, he was very good and very helpful. It was a kind of complicated installation. So, he was very careful to call his office and get expert advice on it. He took accurate pictures and was not afraid to humble himself and ask for advice.

      Stannah Stairlift is a real problem. The one in the back hall constantly stops. We have to constantly adjust it. It never quits. The fellow came out and told us about the various things that could go wrong. We can fix some of these easily, but it's not worth what it cost us to put these stairlifts in. We purchased a stairlift because both my husband and I are unable to easily climb the stairs. There are two short flights of stairs to the second floor. The first flight goes to an area out over our garage, which is our study and our office and where we spend most of our time. So then we had to put one up the front stairs, which we have used probably 10 times. It, so far, seems to run when we try to use it compared to the one in the back in the house. The one that comes in from the garage, we have not used very much and that seems to work every time.

      This one in the back hall, I really think we got a piece of junk. I think it was somebody else's stairlift that they returned and we got it because it doesn't consistently run. You can't call it sometimes. It's just one thing after another. The fellows who came out to explain it have been very nice. It's just I haven't bothered to call about the backstairs anymore because they can't fix it. I wouldn't recommend Stannah. You get the stairlift, and if they can't fix it, you're stuck with it. It does allow us to get upstairs with a considerable amount of aggravation much of the time, but we can get up the stairs.

      Stannah Stairlifts' rep was very responsible and professional. He triple measured. Called in to make sure that the numbers were right, came by afterwards to look at the stairlift after it was installed. Also, the installation was quick and easy. The installers were in and out in an hour and a half hour. They were very thorough and professional, cleaned up after themselves, and showed me how to use the stairlift. We had glitches, and Stannah came right away and serviced within 24 hours.

      The stairlift makes my husband's life much easier. It saves him a lot of energy. He doesn't have to be worried anymore going up and down the stairs. It has relieved a lot of stress for him, a lot of concern for me as well. I don't have to be worried about him. Hold my breath every time he's going up the stairs. Tremendous quality.

      The Stannah sales rep was very knowledgeable and gave me a bunch of options. My only negative is the scheduling for the installation. They gave me a window and it fell outside that window a little bit. Also, the communication was little bit vague because I kept emailing and I kept getting answers that weren't spot on. To be very fair, it was around the holiday time but I had hoped that the installation would have been a little bit quicker.

      Also, I'm a little bit dubious about the stairlift. We've had it for five months and I've already had them back to adjust it once, something to do with the chain. I'm noticing on the end of it, there's a piece of rubber that sat between the tile floor and the end post and that rubber keeps shifting on me. When they came back to do the maintenance on the chain, they just cut off part of the rubber. More of the rubber is coming out and I don't know what that's all about. And the footrest sticks and it doesn't always come down. It's functional, but it's just a little bit hesitant at certain points. I figured that I wouldn't call for another service call on the footrest until I really needed it on the chain part of it. But we still have one more stair to navigate somewhere in the near future and I would call the sales rep again.

So, we wouldn't even consider anything else. This last purchase, we called the place that we had purchased from before but they were no longer carrying Stannah so we bought directly from Stannah. It went very well with the sales rep and he guided us into the right product for us. Then, the installer this time around did the best job of installing it so it conserves the most space.

A couple of times, I was able to work it out, following the numbers. But there were a couple of times I couldn't and I called and the person that would answer would try to help.

      I did my homework and visited the showroom, then ordered a Stannah stairlift to extend from my basement to the second floor of my home. It was installed, but four months later I still can't use it. The chair faces the wall as it travels up the stairwell and it ends at the top step before my second floor landing. I was never told that the only way for the chair to face the landing rather than the wall was for me to manually turn it, pushing with my feet against the wall. I needed the stairlift because I have severe arthritis in my hip and chronic pain in legs, arms, shoulders, wrists, etc.

      I said I would pay to have the stair lift rails extended by about 3 feet to turn the corner on my landing and face the doorway. Stannah says this would cost me $9,600 because they would have to trash the entire rail system -- all three stories -- and start over. The rails came in sections which were assembled in my home, so I asked why they couldn't just replace the last section and add the extension. They said that I could request that but it would cost the same as replacing the entire system.

      Stannah never disclosed that any modification or repair of the rails would result in total replacement, and frankly it doesn't make any sense to me. I need the extension to be safe in my home and they have me over a barrel. And their "contract" is really a purchase agreement for the hardware and labor in one price. No disclosures at all. If a customer has a short, straight, wide staircase, the Stannah may be a good option. But I don't recommend it due to their disingenuous advertising and virtually non-existent disclosures.

      The Stannah Stairlift is a wonderful thing. It was wonderful for the short time that my wife used it. It's quiet. When I have used it, I would move it from one level, which is the resting level, to another. However, when it was out of place because it wasn't in this resting spot, it would signal that it needed to be moved back to where it generally would sit. That signal, if I wasn't ready to put it back for whatever reason, I would have liked to have some way of turning it off. I don't know if that exists. So, I would put it back to the level at which it normally would sit all night long. Otherwise, though, that beeping to alert me would be annoying. It makes you put it back where it's supposed to be and that's minor. But there might be some trick to turning off that sound.

      I liked Stannah Stairlifts' availability and responsiveness. They were quick to get someone to come out and take a look to assess the right application. But I was a little disappointed. It took a bit longer than I wanted between giving a thumbs up and when it was installed. So, the representations made by the salesperson who came out to do the assessment were more aggressive than what was achievable. The price didn't change but the timing slipped by a number of weeks. What was something that was supposedly available for install within a couple of weeks took several weeks before it was available. Other than that, the installation went great.

Fortunately, I have a very clean and open stair, so it works very well. It's not up against any walls and everything floats. But that has to do with the design of the stairs that existed before Stannah's railing came in.

      We're an elevator company and we used the Stannah stairlift while we installed an elevator in a nursing home. The salesperson came up from New York, walked us through the option of the stairlift, where they could put it, how they were gonna install it, and when they could install it. He was good. He helped us talk the customer into getting the stairlift. They wanted a wheelchair lift that would never work. He was really professional.

      The rep Michelle was very personable and she gave me her phone number. We got a stairlift that turns when you get to the top. It goes to the top step and there's no space in between. There's less chance of falling. The installer was very neat and polite. The only problem we had was the credit card machine. It made it look like they kept declining my wife's card. Other than that, when I have to carry something or I'm feeling unsteady, I have the option to take the stairlift. It's slow but that's not a deal killer. It's convenient and safe. It saves me from getting injured.

      I love the Stannah Stairlift. I can't live without it. It's fantastic and beautiful. It doesn't look horrible. It blends in with the walls. The installation team was fine, courteous and quick. It took them less than two hours. They were pleasant and helpful in telling us about the stairs and showing us how it worked.

      The sales rep and the installer were very nice. I took a used stairlift ‘cause it fit my budget better, and the sales rep answered all the questions that I had. The installer was neat and thorough, and he finished in the timeline that he gave me. The quality of the stairlift is good, and it makes things easier for my husband ‘cause he has Alzheimer's and his balance is not that good. It helps him when he's going up or down. I'm also using it because I have a slight breathing problem. My granddaughter enjoys the stairlift as well. She likes to ride on it.

      Stannah could care less about their customers - they are so greed driven that they will only sell parts to their own dealers - not even to a licensed electrician - they are money grabbers - purchase a chair from a different company - We need another chair and will never purchase from them again!!!

      The stairlift is very helpful in the ascending and descending a very steep flight of stairs within the house. It works perfectly well every time. It's not cheap, but I understand a little bit about mechanical devices, and the price did not surprise me. The installers knew what they were doing and did it expertly and quickly.

      The rep was very informative and helpful. He said, “No, we have a 300-pound maximum that we can get you, so it would be a single. Plus the Acorn, whether it makes any difference or not, I'm sure it's all engineering, had just a single rail. The Stannah had a dual rail that you rode up on and moved up on and all that." I said that was a little safer and more sturdier. So we went with Stannah. The installation team was fine. They were very informative and quiet. They did their job. They answered any questions that we had. The explanation at the end was excellent.

      I liked that Stannah's equipment was concealed. The installation was done extremely well and very clean. They came in the morning and they were done by noon. It was one man who definitely knew what he was doing. He was a true professional and that made me happy. It's a straight chairlift and it fits really well in my staircase. If my staircase was six inches wider, it would fit better. But it's not a problem. The stairlift is a wonderful piece of equipment. It fits everything we need and it's quiet.

      Stannah was the best match for me for what I needed. Their presentation ran an hour and it was thorough, informative, and straightforward. Stannah is more on the expensive end. There are other places out there that do it for cheaper but I'm not really sure about the quality. Once I decided I wanted to go through with it, I had to call up Stannah and it was hard to get in touch with somebody to actually come out. They sent me in circles a little bit.

      My stair lift is straight up and down. It is very high quality and very functional. You get in there and put on the seatbelt. It has a button for the footrest and on the arm, it has a maneuverable switch that you can go up or down. The only thing is when the guy installed the stair lift, he didn't take off the banister so it's tight. When the lift goes up the stairs, sometimes it hits my knees. I asked Stannah to come back to redo it. But they said, “Only a few now take off the banister.” But other places would do it themselves. I'm still waiting to have that done. That aside, I would recommend Stannah. Now, I'm able to get upstairs.
