I called Stannah and got an appointment, which was very nice, except it got cancelled because somebody got sick and I had to wait an additional week for the installation. The gentleman who installed the stairlift was very good and didn't seem to have any difficulty. But he was rather impatient when we had questions. He wasn’t rude but he could have used a speck more patience in his voice. We had to understand him quickly and he didn't appreciate too many questioning to clarify things. But the installation was very clean and neat. And the stairlift has been very good because I fell and broke my hip. I had surgery and I needed something for my main stairway. I should have done it sooner.
The stairlift beeps at me though. It doesn't annoy me but it annoys my sister. She thinks something's wrong. But I've learned how to make it not beep. Somebody told me to make it go up halfway and it will stop beeping. So, it worked out. I can't be more satisfied with something that I purchased. That helps me because I'm recuperating from my surgery. That particular stairway is a 14-step stairway and it makes a big difference for getting from the first floor to the second floor where the bedrooms are. I don't always pay the going price for things and be satisfied, but it was very well worth it, and I'm very pleased with it. If someday I don't need it any longer, I will have it removed, which is a possibility that I appreciate. If the stairlift will help you, do it. Don't hesitate.
Thank you Virginia for your five-star review. You are always welcome to ask questions during any part of the process, we apologize if that didn't seem to be the case for you. Otherwise we're glad to know you are so satisfied with your stairlift and can now get up to your bedrooms safely on your Stannah stairlift.

Stannah is local and it means a lot because they're here and I know where they are if something goes wrong. I went with them and the sales rep came out when she promised she would. She did her job. Also, the guys who installed the stairlift were fantastic. Stannah delivered what they said they would and we're very happy with it.

My grandfather needed a stairlift and I liked Stannah's values. The salesman that was here did a great job and he gave us a good discount because my grandfather was a veteran. They respected the veterans and he gave us a good price. They do a buyback better. They did a very good job. They offered us a used one and said that it's manufactured and refurbished and they buy it back. There was a whole bunch of stuff that they offered with it. It was nice. The installation went very quickly. I pushed it off to a certain date and they had it all set and ready to go.
The guy who came here to measure and those that I've dealt with on the phone in regards to the delivery and the installation had great customer service. Everybody was courteous. The guy who even installed it was awesome. He cleaned up after himself and everything was nice. He explained it. He took his time. There was a problem and he took his time and he contacted the installer. He didn't take a specific answer that he didn't like. He sat in his truck and he researched it and he found somebody who told him what to do, and then he came in and he fixed it. He went above and beyond. He wasn't satisfied until he got the answer he was looking for on how to fix something that he wasn't happy with.

It took quite a while to install the stairlift. We had to have a little extra section at the bottom because, otherwise, it would have blocked the door. The installers thought they would be able to do it in a week but it was more like two weeks. But they were very good. Also, we love the stairlift. The only thing is the on-off button has a light that shines while it's on and if we shut it off, it just beeps. We don't really have much of an option to get rid of that light and it's quite bright in the hall upstairs.

I had done some research online and was looking at things. Stannah was one of two companies that I was going to call. The other was an American company, which I would have preferred. But I was talking with a friend who has a mother who has three Stannah stairlifts. She said all the right things about it. I called Stannah and a salesman came out. He was very pleasant and wasn't there pushing everything.
The young man that came out and installed it was incredibly efficient and really nice too. We have an older house and there's a problem with finding an electrical outlet for the stairlift to plug into. When the salesman walked in, the first thing he said was there's a problem with electrical outlets in old houses. He asked if we have a plug downstairs that's close by. There's one five feet away from where the stairlift had to be. He said it was a perfect placement. He explained that I had to drill a hole in the floor. I measured then marked where I was going to drill the hole then thought to wait until the installer came.
When I showed it to the installer, he explained that the outside doesn't match up with the inside wall. He was really helpful. He drove the hole and it was nowhere near where I was going to drill it. Once we had the hole drilled, he went, did his thing and cleaned up after himself. The experience, especially with the installer, was excellent. He was very good about explaining. The salesman had gone through that, but it's another thing to have the stairlift right there. He was very patient, and everything worked out fine so I'm happy. Our Stannah stairlift is working very well. We have grandchildren and my husband asked if i'st durable for the grandchildren. The salesman said, “It goes too slow. The kids will try it once then they'll be bored.” That's not true for our three-year-old granddaughter. She loves that stairlift. She makes it go up and down and up and down.

Stannah had features that the other companies didn't offer like the stairlift automatically went up the extended rail. It went straight, but the bottom step sticks out and it would have been blocking the doorway. Stannah had one that went back automatically. I had two of the stairlifts installed and both of them were done in one day. One guy worked on the one going upstairs, and the other guy worked on the one going to the basement. My wife likes the stairlifts.

Everything's been very good and the stairlift is working very well. There’s a man who we met before who has taken over and has shown us how to use them, and if there are any issues, he seems to provide the help. We’ve had the stairlift for three months and my husband loves them. He sits on the chair that brings up the stairs and it’s connected. The person who connected them did a wonderful job because my husband sits near an installation that he holds onto and grabs hold of it. The same person has installed other things in my family room and in my kitchen that makes things very accessible for us. We're happy with what's happening.

When I spoke to the manager at Stannah, he convinced me that they were better than everybody else. But I don't know if I can say that because I had to have the first one replaced. The chair tilted forward and it was a bumpy ride. But the second one is much better. The other issue was that I was promised that the people coming had been vaccinated but only one of them was. The next crew that came were both vaccinated.

One of my neighbors had a Stannah stairlift so I was able to review it there and she raved about it. And I liked the construction when I was over at her house. Both the installer and salesperson were good. And one thing that I liked about what the salesperson said, that you could go to any of their showrooms and they have the competitor’s stairlift to compare theirs to. I like this one because it was made in America. The construction and engineering looks good. I like those safety features and the remote control options. I have a very wide staircase and the stairlift fits well.
My carpet cleaner came in yesterday and he was very impressed with it. And I gave him a demo. We had two visitors in today and they saw it, and they were impressed, too. I told them mine was quasi-simple because it's straight. You go up and down. There are no curves. The only thing I had which would cause a bit of a problem was at the bottom. It's in front of an exit door. But that was taken care of. So it was a bit more expensive because of that additional piece that needed to be added. And I have it wide open. There are no walls around it. The only wall that is around is on where they put the rail. But that's all glass. I was hesitant because I have a contemporary, and I was a little worried about how it would look. But the other thing that person said is if I'm done with it, I don't need it anymore, or for sale reasons if I have to sell the house and I have to pull it out, it can be pulled out and it won't show any problems that it was there.
I have one bad comment, and it's their pamphlets where it comes down to the part where you're picking your upholstery. The colors don't reflect what they look like in real life. The rep brought down the ivory. And he brought down the pan because those are the two I was interested in. But they don't look like what's in the folder and I would have picked the wrong color had I gone with just what was in Stannah's pamphlet. And the other thing that I was a bit concerned about is the railing that goes up and down, it comes in two colors. It's white and silver and bronze and silver. And I just not really noticed in Stannah's pamphlet, a real good close-up picture of just maybe two photos of what this is. This is a piece of what the bronze and white looks like, and here is a piece of what the silver and white looks like. That would have calmed me down a bit, too. Other than that, it's working out well.

The rep from Stannah did his work, which was very effective, and when he was done, he called me and let me know he was finished. He tried it out and showed me exactly what to do. We are loving the stairlift. When we have to go up and I transfer my husband from his wheelchair on to the seat, it makes a sound if it’s not properly set. He sets it, presses the button and down or up he goes. It’s very convenient for us. It’s difficult for him to be walking up and down the stairs, so that chair is so effective. We had one snag when we had a short power outage and it was making a beeping sound. I called someone to make some inquiries but eventually, it started working good again when the power was restored.

I bought the Stannah stairlift and I also bought an Acorn. Acorn has a control right or left on both arms, so if you have a stroke or you can only use one hand, you can use it on either arm, whereas Stannah only has one control. But other than that, they're about equal. The Stannah is a little expensive compared to others but they may last longer. It is also a little faster and more comfortable to sit on. There's a little more padding, which is the one feature that I was impressed with.

I got my wife a stairlift from Stannah and she liked the fact that she could go up on it without having to climb the stairs. The quality is excellent and the guys who came out to do the install were quick, thorough, and clean. It's a straight stairlift and I had a handrail on one side that we had to take off to have it installed but it fits our stairs well considering it's not a wide one.

We have a stairlift inside the house and one outside, and I got those because my wife's mobility is not that good. We live on the second floor and she needed to be able to get up to our living area from downstairs and it’s 15 stairs to make that happen. Then, she fell once when she was coming up the stairs from outside. It was seven stairs and she injured her knee. We had to get an ambulance to get her upright because she was too heavy to lift. So, we got the outside stairlift. We went with Stannah because of the reputation they have as a company that stands by its product. Tony, the rep, came out to tell us about the product and make the measurements. Everything that he did turned out to be very helpful to the installers so, they did the work very quickly and very well.
I like the stairlift inside because it's more compact than the outside one and we didn't have that much room on the stairway. It turns around at the top of the stairs and down at the bottom of the stairs, which makes it easier for my wife to get on the stairlift and off the stairlift. The outside one seems to be very sturdy. It doesn't have the same features as the inside one but it is weather resistant. We had a lot of rain out in the last month or two that we've had it here and everything seems to be working properly.

Stannah's reps were pretty good and very professional. I got the straight stairlift and it fits my needs. On installation day, they had one technician here and it took him about four hours to finish. And after he installed it, he cleared the staircase as well. The stairlift is very good quality and it has made my life easier. Before, I had to hold my grandma and grandpa every time they came here for the treatment in the room upstairs. But now, it's simple for them, they can go by themselves, and they feel safe.

I was looking around and when Stannah's salesman came out, I was very impressed with him. He knew everything and went through everything with e. He was also very nice and very polite. The installation went well, too. But I don't think the company has their act together yet. I called and I told them I wanted the railway removed as it will give me three and a half more feet. But the rep I was working with was on vacation and he didn't have anything on his phone saying that he was. I called their office and it took them one week to answer my phone call, which was not acceptable. Then, when they came out, they asked if I wanted my chair to be removed. So, I don't think they talk to each other. But other than that, the product looks all right.

Stannah was lovely. The installer was pleasant, knowledgeable and very good. The stairlift is not used that often, but it seems to work. It has the qualities that we're looking for, and the seat is much closer in the feet than the other one. So, it folds up nicely. It was just kind of a pain to get ahold of them. I called and I filled out my information online. I got transferred and that was a little bit frustrating. I did put my name in maybe six times, and then when I called, I got transferred. Each person took my name and phone number. Doug called me back though and he was lovely.

The man that works for the chairlift place came to the house and he talked to me and presented all the lovely things about the stairlift and how it could help me. I agreed and I purchased. He was very knowledgeable. The installation took about six hours long. The installers were very considerate and professional. My Stannah stairlift works good for the amount of space in the stairwell that I have. It does the purpose. It takes me downstairs and takes me back up smoothly. It's caused less pain for me every day to be able to go downstairs and then come back up without hurting any more than I already was. Getting to the room is hard. It's really great in my experience for the whole day not to have as much pain.

I had one-half of my stairlift installed because I was still able to walk up the other flight of stairs. But it got to a point where I could no longer lift a leg to go up. Then I went to the hospital for a while, and to the rehab. I was considering getting another half put in and when I was going down stairs backwards and couldn't make the last two steps, I decided that it was time to get it. So, I called and had Stannah install the other half. The stairlift has been a blessing and I like the availability of being able to go up and down the stairs because I live on the second floor. Aside from that, the sales rep I had, Edwin, was very helpful.

I looked at a couple of providers and I talked to Erwin and I liked him, so I decided to buy Stannah. I got the curved stairlift and it fits well enough in my staircase. The quality looks very substantial. The installers were terrific but one of the installers was not vaccinated. Other than that, they did a very good, workmanlike, efficient and knowledgeable job. I was very pleased with the installation. I raised the issue of the guy who was not vaccinated because anybody coming into your home want them to be vaccinated. He said loud and clear when he walked across the door, "I'm not vaccinated. But I'm wearing my mask and I'm wearing gloves and I'm wiping everything with Clorox." He did so he was careful, but it made me a little uncomfortable in retrospect that he was not vaccinated.
I'm very satisfied with my stairlift. It does what it's supposed to do, and I liked the people who put it in even the guy who was not vaccinated. I just wished that I had known that in advance because I would have handled things a little bit differently. I would have gone ahead with the installation and even including those two guys, but I would have stayed a little farther away from them.

The sales representative knew everything and answered any of my husband's questions. The installation kid knew his stuff and he explained everything to me afterward. I was slow getting it and he just helped me. We went up and down a few times until he felt I was comfortable. I love the longer arms. The only thing that I found a little difficult is when I get to the top of the stairs and I'm out of the chair, sometimes I bump because it's on the right-hand arm. My clothing gets caught on the thing that I push to go up or to come down. There's a railing but I couldn't reach it to help me get out of the chair so I was really leery about it. But I got used to it and I now know how to be extra careful.
The stairlift has made my life much easier because I used to be very winded by the time I got to the top as I have atrial fibrillation. Then once I finished the other three stairs, I would have to sit down for a few minutes. Stannah is a very good company and I like the fact that we were able to buy used.

The ratings seemed to consistently demonstrate that Stannah was a high-quality product, and that nothing was outsourced and everything was done internally. It was not the cheapest, but it was the best value for the money. My parents were happy with the initial visit of the salesperson. I was present for that as well and there was a little bit of a lack of communication. We had an estimated install date. The salesperson told us that they would keep us posted if there were any delays. But we were not told by the salesperson that any further communication should go through the main office.
My dad and I had left voicemails for the salesperson looking for an update. We understood that COVID may delay things. We understood that the parts were being made in the UK and that there were certain things that are beyond anyone's control. But the salesperson did not return our calls and that was very concerning. If we're calling the wrong person, they should give us a call back and let us know who we should call. It was disappointing. It caused some undue and unnecessary concern that something may be going wrong here.
As we were approaching the install date, I thought somebody had to call us and confirm because somebody besides my parents needed to be there. Both my parents have some memory and hearing problems, and they get easily overwhelmed, so they prefer that one of us be there when things like the installation are happening. In the end, the installation itself went great. The two people who came out were lovely. They did everything in their power to be as undisruptive as possible and they were very nice to my parents.
My dad uses the stairlift more than my mother does and when she uses it, she gets him to coach her. I watched my mother and she gets a little panicky using it. Stannah could have a laminated simple step-by-step reminder of the steps to take each time you get in that chair. A laminated reminder that could easily be posted on the wall at each end would be a great benefit to elderly folks that are using it. The installers did teach my parents how to use it. But I watched them both today and they consistently forget to turn the power off when they were getting in and out of it. That's dangerous. They consistently get a couple of things out of order. I also caught my father not using the seatbelt. So the visual instructions would enhance safety and reduce anxiety. But overall, my parents are very pleased with the stairlift.

The way that the Stannah dealerships are set up is if somebody can't take the phone call at the local dealership, they roll it over to the national number, which I understand and it's great. That way, the local dealership isn't going to lose their call. But the national number often was not answered. It took them a long time and they never transferred me to the local folks. I don't know if the messages ever got through. It was a very bad experience dealing with their national phone number. But the local dealership was fabulous once I got to them. The sales rep came and asked what we needed. He looked at the stairs and measured them. Then, he looked for outlets and gave us two or three different designs with price. It was a rare good sales call. He did exactly what we asked him to do and gave us exactly what we needed. So far, we're happy with the stairlift. It's quiet and it works perfectly.

He did the job nicely and fast. Everything came out perfect. Our stairs are really long. They are 32 steps going up all the way and straight ahead. The stairlift works and we love it. We have a garage where I work down below and there’s a big door from the apartment that's upstairs. Carrying cases of water was really tough to do. We put it on the stairlift now and send our groceries up. I take my little pug up there too and we just play with it. I only wish the speed is a little faster. You sit there and you feel like 90 years old. The stairlift takes a while but it gets you up there.
There was one glitch in the whole thing, which was it was not a big deal. I got a call from a lady at Stannah who said one part was out of stock. We were all excited waiting a month or so. She said she's going to extend my warranty. I told her I was not gonna cancel and I would wait for everything. That was another month to finally get done.
Thank you Clyde for your 5-star review and your patience and understanding as we ordered your part. We're glad you are thoroughly enjoying your Stannah stairlift and it is helping you thrive at home.

The Stannah stairlift was a big investment but I liked the fact that the quality was excellent. The woman that came out was very clear. The installation was a prolonged one and the fellow that did it spent all day. But he was working along and he did a great job. He left everything neat. I've been very satisfied with the stairlift. Bruce is the one using it and he loves it. He is really enjoying his ride. He gets to shower every other day now.

Stannah had a local office and their pricing included installation, which some of the others did not include. The installation went very smoothly and the crew made sure my mom could operate it before they left. They showed me how the stairlift worked too. My mom is thrilled and very happy with the stairlift. She's able to get up and down the stairs. I haven't had to pick her up from the top of the stairs lately. She has a little bit more positive attitude and that makes a big difference.

Stannah are great people. I chose them over another company that was a little bit cheaper because they have a warehouse right here in Franklin and they were local people. But as it turned out, when I called their 800 number, I'd get somebody that Lord knows where they are, and they had to refer everything that I gave them, rather than me talking to an individual right here in Franklin. I had an issue where I thought I was overbilled. But then I forgot about the $1,000 extra I had to pay for a feature that lifted a tail so I could get into a room. I called this 800 number and I gave the young lady I spoke with all the information. She got ahold of the accounting department and they called me back. But I expected to be able to get to the accounting department directly.
Nonetheless, I am completely satisfied with everything that Stannah did, all the way from the salesman that came out and the installer. I paid a little bit more than I intended to, but the quality is top-shelf. I did have to have them come back to look at the chair is going down to my basement. The gentleman that was out here on a trouble call took care of the problem. It was perfect.

The Stannah stairlift is a lifesaver for my husband. He had a full hip replacement and now he can get up to his own bed and to the bathroom upstairs. It's wonderful. We have a door at the bottom downstairs. The installer was very nice and he put in a little thing so that the door would not hit on the chair. My only suggestion is the stairlift could have been up six inches more to the top where the chair would have been. It meets the landing upstairs and downstairs but if there was a little less of the track downstairs and more upstairs, it might have been better.

Originally, we had the straight stairlift and we went with Stannah were pleased with it. When we had to reconstruct it, we said that we would not change company because we've had good luck with the original one. The sales rep was great. In fact, seven weeks were up and I made a call and it was almost instantly that he got hold of someone in the installation area and made an appointment for the installation. The guys came in and took the old stairlift out and put the new one in. They couldn't have been more professional to get it done. It's just that my wife has short legs.

Both my parents needed some help with stairs so we decided to purchase a stairlift for our home. We looked at Stannah with a few of the different brands out there. We ended up going with Stannah because there was more flexibility in terms of renting versus buying, rent-to-buy, and they were local. So, that helps us as well. Our sales person came in. We described what we needed. He saw our stairs. He immediately knew what we needed and when I asked for a recommendation, he was very direct and explained why that was the best one. He was very helpful and answered our questions.
The installation was about 10 to 14 days after we purchased. We needed to upgrade the original version we installed due to something we didn't foresee in terms of our ability to use the stairs in our home kind of construct. They came on time both times and were able to install both our stairlifts. The second one took a while because it was a little bit of a complicated install. What was helpful was that when we initially had a certain unforeseen issue with the original version we rented, once we reached out to our salesperson to ask for how to address it, he was very helpful and got back to us very quickly with that information.

The installment didn't go too well. The installer took a day to install it and he was a very nice man, but there was a bump in the middle. So, I called him back.

We got an appointment with Stannah and the rep came out and looked at the stairs that we needed to deal with. He asked us some questions and then told us of the options and what they would do if they put a stairlift in, and described the type of device they use, what they were doing and what they weren't doing. He also talked about safety features that really were not directly related to the stairs, but things like having the door automatically not shot to the upstairs. He very carefully described the cost and what the projection would be if we did decide to purchase.
We ended up getting a straight stairlift and at the bottom, there's a doorway right near the track. So we've got the thing that automatically folds up when the chair goes up to charge. The quality of the stairlift seems to be perfect. It's not that hard to use. It's for my wife and she would never have been able to get up the stairs without it. So it's working well. If I'm going to be leaving in a little bit and she's going to come upstairs and take a shower, I don't worry that she's going to get stuck in the middle. She seems to be very confident about it. It allows her to be somewhat independent. I would like the price to have been cheaper. But then again, for what we got, it's working very well for us. We couldn't have done without it.

The sales guy tried to be as helpful as possible. He went on the stairs itself to take a look at everything. He showed us a video, which was very helpful. The first thing we noticed with the stairlift was it was so quiet and it looked very sleek. It was the complete opposite of what we were used to. We were very, very happy with his presentation and how he explained things to us.
When you go down the chair and you're ready to come off, you have to move your legs in such a position so that they're out of the way of the footrest. You can't put the footrest up because you're sitting on the chair, and the footrest moves along with the seat of the chair. So you have to get out of the chair and then pick up the seat of the chair. It's a little strange. Also, our stairwell is a little tight so if the chair was a little bit smaller, there would be more room around. But overall, we're very happy with it. We're in our 70s and the stairlift makes life easier. There are many times when we have to carry heavy objects up and down the stairs, and the stairlift is a godsend to us. It's easier for us to go up and down using it. We are very thankful we have it.

Stannah is a quality product. It's manufactured in England and it's really an impressive lift that works well for us. The reason I got it is because I'm 74 years old and I had two bad falls. On the first fall, I broke my femur and on the second fall, I broke four ribs. We figured that a stairlift could make things comfortable here in the house. We got the straight one and it's indoors. It’s made to order and one piece goes right into the other. It's really a piece of work and the whole thing is fully automatic. When the rails come together, they fit like a tee. It's a well-thought-of product. The installer did a heck of a job mounting it and getting it done. The Stannah is made so one man can install it. They have an installation team if there are multiple floors.
This stairlift has changed my life. There's no way I could have walked to the second floor, which is where we have a master bedroom, master bathroom, et cetera. There's no way we could have walked that every single day, three or four times a day. I'm totally satisfied with our Stannah stairlift and I recommend it. They did a wonderful job.

My husband needed a stairlift for himself and he chose Stannah. We reached out to the company and had somebody come to measure. The representative that came out was Moe and he was absolutely wonderful. The stairlift was put in on the 1st of July this year and that went well. Two different people came in to do the installation and my husband was on the stairlift a handful of times. The only thing is we've had the stairlift from July 1st to now and one of the panels in the back fell off exposing a wire. My husband was afraid to go on it when that happened. I called Stannah and got a little bit of a runaround. I finally spoke to someone and she insisted that I take pictures. It was very difficult to take pictures on the stairway but I did that and sent the pictures to her.
When my husband passed away, I called Stannah and I spoke to someone about removing the stairlift because as cars depreciate, this stairlift was going to as well. The rep said I was on a payment plan and I would have to continue the plan. I insisted that I needed to have the stairlift taken and asked about the steps. It was important to do that sooner rather than later. The rep asked, "Won't you need the stairlift one day?" How do you ask a question like that? I couldn't go on with the conversation and just dropped it. She knew I wanted the stairlift out and that I needed to talk to somebody. She told me that she was going to email me the telephone number of someone that I could speak to but she never did.
Finally, I got to speak to someone else and was told, "I cannot talk to you about this, I have to have someone call you." I asked to have the phone number but she didn't have it. I had to wait to hear from whoever but I never did. I called again and again. I kept getting people that kept saying, "You've got to tell me exactly what it is you need from them and then they will contact you." I kept getting such a runaround and I was so frustrated. I said to one individual, "How many times do I have to repeat this story? How many times before someone calls me back?" We hung up and I realized I had Moe's phone number. I reached out to him and he helped me get this stairlift out.
People came today and they took the stairlift out but I'm still paying for it. Stannah is telling me that I have to pay 30% and they'll only reimburse me 30%, which is unfair because the stairlift was just put in on July 1st and my husband died on the 30th. Stannah is making the payments less for me instead of 1400 for four more months. But they already took out a full payment for August and I gave them $3,000 before they put the lift in. Now, they made the payments to be $714 for the next four months. They took a perfect stairlift out of here and they're still gonna charge me. The warranty says if you're not satisfied, call in a week and they would take it out and you wouldn't have to pay anything. I missed it by a week or 10 days.

I reached out to other stairlift providers but Stannah was the only one who came by. Their price sounded reasonable. When I called the other companies, nobody came to give me a quote. Stannah's reps were decent people and they installed the stairlift well. It looks like a good product and it's working out okay. I had a friend who got his stairlift installed through somebody else. It was a short staircase but I did not like that product for sure. The Stannah I got was much better quality. However, I thought that at the bottom of the stairs it would tilt 45 degrees, but it just stays straight. Upstairs, it tilts 45 degrees, but not downstairs. If it tilts at the bottom also, it leaves more room to move and work things around.
Thank you Kumar for sharing your 4-star review. The manual swivel chair does not turn on the downside of the stairs for safety reasons. Our powered swivel is available at an additional cost and can be installed to swivel at the bottom. Please reach out to us if you have any questions about this or would like to upgrade.

I had a chair previously with Stannah and the service was magnificent. It just got old and decrepit and finding parts was difficult, so I had to replace it. I really liked the approach. They were very honest and thorough about it. They worked with me with a reasonable price being a senior. I like the fact that the stairlift goes all the way to the top. The other one doesn't do that. The way it is built, there are 13 stairs, a platform, another two steps up, and then I'm at the top. I like that it's smooth and it's not noisy. It's aesthetically pleasing to the eye, where the other unit, of course, was not state-of-the-art at the time. Be sure and go with Stannah. They'll work with you.

The two installers made every effort to get the stairlift as close to the stair rail as possible in order to leave us the most room for the rest of the stairs to come up and down when we're not using the lift. So, they were particularly good. They made some extra adjustments when the chair height was a little bit high. It has worked out okay and you wouldn't want something too low. But in hindsight, I'm not sure. Our initial consultant, Tony, was careful enough about the height. When Donna stands next to the chair, she has the lower edge of her butt, even with it. But she has to go up on her toes a bit to get onto it.
We all lose a half-inch or so of height with each passing year and we were concerned about that. The installers adjusted as best they could but my only complaint is that I'm not sure the calculation or the specification on seat height was definitive for us. Because you can't quite fit directly on it. Still, Stannah has very good quality and we’re very satisfied.

There are a lot of things I really like about Stannah. I liked the style of it and the safety measures. I also like the fact that you could choose the color of the seat and it's softer. It's not all hard plastic. I also liked that it can go 180 degrees. My husband's fairly heavy and it had a higher weight capacity than other stairlifts. The sales rep was knowledgeable about not only their chairlift but other chairlifts. He was able to tell me where Stannah was outstanding versus another one. Even though it was more expensive, it was worth the extra.
I had another chairlift installed for our garage but had to have it returned. But the Stannah, I've been very happy with once they got it working. The installation was painful. It took them three tries to get it working for my husband. It took them five days once they came to install it. They installed it, he rode up it once, they left, and then he went to ride up it at night, it wouldn't move. It would go for me, but it wouldn't go for him. It was leaning slightly forward. Usually, when you're sitting in a chair, the back of it should be straight up. It wasn't. It was leaning forward slightly. The weight distribution wasn't correct.
I called the next morning and they sent somebody right out. That guy couldn't figure it out. He thought it was the motor. He was inexperienced. So, we had to wait a long weekend. Because he came on a Friday. Finally, the third guy was much more experienced. He had been working with them longer. The other guy said it needed different things, and this guy said, “Nope.” And he just adjusted it. He got the seat so it was sitting straight up. The weight distribution was better. Since he worked on it, it's been working.
The other good thing is I called them and said, “It's not working right now. When does the warranty start?” In my mind, it shouldn't have started, and they agreed to this. It started once they got it working. So, they were able to change the warranty date. I was really happy that they were willing to do a little compromise and give me something in return for having it here and not working.
The stairlift has been a huge success. My husband has Parkinson's and he's had it for 23 years. He couldn't get up the stairs safely. He was really struggling. Now, he can get up and down our stairs. So, he can get to the bedroom and he has access to both levels of our house. It's been really good to give him that flexibility. Otherwise, he would have had to live on the first floor.

I needed medical equipment to go up my stairs. I asked different friends that I knew had stairlifts. One was Acorn and the other one was Stannah. I went online to see reviews and I was very satisfied with Stannah Stairlifts. Their representatives were very good. They had a woman that came down originally. She was their first representative and she knew her product and it was applicable to me. She knew exactly the right words to say so that people will feel comfortable because it's an expensive item. The cost was something I could afford and I needed it as a necessity.
The installer was also good. He was very good on installing it. We needed a plug down somewhere on that stair so that we get electricity in the line. The electrician had to do some maneuvering because he had to go in through the basement in the cellar. If he couldn't have given us an electrical source, the Stannah stairlift wouldn't be here.
I'm pretty satisfied with overall quality of the stairlift. It's pretty easy to operate. In a new product, you have to experiment with it until you become comfortable with it. I needed it for this house. The stairs are 14 stairs up, 14 stairs down. It wasn't coming down the stairs, it was going up the stairs. I needed total knee replacement and I'm trying to avoid that.

When the Stannah salesman came, he explained that when the chair is up, it configures in such a way that it blocks the top of the stairs. So, I knew my mother will not be able to fall down the stairs if she lost her balance. What happened was, unfortunately, my mother passed away and she never even saw or used the stairlift. I have rented it for six months, and because the contract had started, I got no refund or any money back. I had the stairlift in my house for three weeks and I just had it removed on Monday. I think that was a little ridiculous that they kept the entire amount because I rented it for six months.
It was ridiculous that I got no money back. I think they need to extend if there are extenuating circumstances. I didn't ask because I didn't expect my mother to pass, and I liked the fact that it blocked the stairway. So, I was gonna get it anyway because I liked that feature. But I just think that maybe they need to have a different type of refund. They could've refunded me half the money. They should have more opportunities for getting at least some of the money back. Other than that, everybody was lovely and knowledgeable. When I called because my mother had passed and I told the gentleman on the phone, "I need this thing out of my house," he did his best to get me on the schedule right away.
Thank you Sharon for your feedback. We are sorry to hear of your mother's passing.

My daughter found Stannah Stairlifts and I called and made an appointment. The fellow who came was absolutely very knowledgeable. He made me understand everything. He gave me all the different prices that we could have gone with with different types of the stairlift, how many steps or what I wanted to do. He was very informative. I chose the one that best fits my situation and my pocketbook. The man that came to install it was also really good. My son was here also, so they spent a lot of time together and the man was explaining everything to him. I watched. It was a lot to take it in in the beginning, but when we used it, it was really simple.
I love that it's so simple. When we had electric power out and the chair was beeping, I didn't know there was a switch in the back to shut the chair off. When my son came home, it was still beeping and he said there's a button in the back to stop it. That's only to let you know that the electric went out. So, that was a good feature on it. You save on the battery. You wouldn't know unless the electric went out, and it went out. But I thought that it's supposed beep. I didn't know it was drawing power from the battery to leave it on. Battery backup came on. So the chair tells you the battery backup is on with the beeping, but I didn't know to turn it off. My son shut it off right away. You have to press the button back on to use it, but it works in the power outage which is good to know. It did work.
I did recommend Stannah. Everyone's asking me about it. Everyone wants to come and take a ride. Now, I got other people with steps say, “Oh, gee, I would love to have that.” Now, as far as the price, I don't really understand because they're telling me they can't find one for the price I got this one at. The prices of the ones they looked at was much more. They can't get one for this price. I can't believe the price I got it. It's like having an elevator in the house that would have cost a fortune. I'm amazed that they invented this. I love it.
Overall, having the stairlift is marvelous because I'm 78 and I was literally crawling up the steps. My kids wanted my bedroom and everything brought downstairs. There's no room, and that saved my life because now I don't have to hear them anymore. I sit on the chair and up I go. I can keep my bedroom. The product is fantastic.

There's a water heater in my cellar and sometimes when it rains, I can get water in the basement, so I need to get down there. I am not mobile enough to make the trip all the time, so having a stairlift installed makes it easier. Now, it could be five or six days between times when I use it, but it's there, and it's good to have it. When I was choosing companies, I checked with Stannah first. When the salesman came in, he was able to determine something with the cellar stairs. He said there was a lip there and to have the installers place the track a little further back for stability when they do the install.
There were a couple of things too, like the way he wanted to switch the lock on the cellar door so that it could be just touched to open. I appreciated those insights. Those things seemed very important to me. I was able to reach him as well. We talked for quite a while and he said that I would be able to call him and talk to him after he was here. I thought about things for a few days, and I had more questions. I called him and he called right back, which was quite impressive. He answered my questions.
There was another company that I consulted and it turned out that the owner of the company had been a student of mine years ago. The companies that she represented had very high ratings. She also lived not too far from where I am, and she and her husband operated the business, which was good. Plus, they were less money than Stannah.
I made a connection with both people who represented their companies, but I still went with the Stannah one. It was something with the salesman that did it. Also, the Stannah Stairlifts place is in Franklin, Mass., which is not far from where I live, and it is a resource for the parts for around the country. It was nice to know the parts were right there. The one thing that's a drawback with Stannah is that they are more expensive. It's going to cost me more on the maintenance with the batteries.

Their rep did a great presentation and the stairlift folds up great and has the remote button for the seat that comes out. The track is enclosed. It looks pretty good and we've had it, and it's working great.
Stannah's salesperson was very thorough, gave a good presentation and showed us the difference between some of the others out there. This one might have been a little bit more money, but what it offered was good. The installer worked and did his job, and we chitchatted. He was very good. At the end of this thing, he went over with me and my husband.
Thank you Mary Ann for your Stannah Stairlifts 5-star review. We're glad to hear you received all the information you needed to choose the right stairlift for your needs.

I purchased a Stannah stairlift for my wife when she was alive. The house we were in only had one bathroom and it was upstairs. She was failing, so I got it for her. She never got to ride it because she turned worse and passed away before she could use it. I moved in with my daughter. They put up an apartment and I have to come up a flight of stairs over the garage. I had to have it reinstalled over here, and the gentleman that came and did it did a good job. I use the stairlift when I have to go out. It's good. I'm used to it. I enjoy it and it helps me immensely.
Thank Mr. Richard for taking the time to share your review. We are very sorry for your loss. It's nice to hear that your stairlift is helping you in your new residence.

Stannah installed our stairlift efficiently, and it's working well. Initially, Tony came out to the house. He’s the sales guy. He covered everything. The one thing that surprised me a little bit was that the chair sticks out beyond the frame a little more than I had anticipated. So, its best position is when it's up at the top of the stairs, rather than sitting down at the bottom. It kinda blocks our way a little bit. Given the location of the stairs, I’m not sure if there was any other real alternative. We got the curved model. It started from the inside of the stairs. Quality was good. Stannah has used models, too. I didn't go that way myself but that seemed like an option for somebody who is a little concerned about price.

The sales visit was very good. The woman was very nice, explained everything to me very well, and didn't try to pressure me. That was very important to me. I want to get the information and then make a decision. Also, the installer was so good. He explained everything very well. I was happy with that. There were features that I liked. The fact that the foot rests, I just have to push a button to get it down so there's no bending over anything, which defeats the purpose of getting it. Also, it turns when I get to the top of the stairs which made me feel safer.
There are two remote controls, one upstairs and one downstairs. And it's quiet. I thought something like that would be a lot noisier, but it's not. It's also important to me that should I lose power, it will still work. And the installer explained to me what to do during a power outage. Also very important to me was the fact that Stannah manufactures what they sell. That they build it, so they know what's going on with it. I have to keep my family from coming over and wanting to take a ride. I made the right choice. I would highly recommend this chair.

I'm not really satisfied with my chair lift. I don't like the way it's installed. When it comes down to the bottom and it stops, I can’t turn it, so I'm crunched for space in order to get out of it and pick up the footrest. It should be able to turn at the bottom the same way it can be turned at the top. Then the installer took the chair lift right to the top of the stairs. I asked him to take it a little bit further than that so I'm not near there when getting out of the chair. But he didn't do that. I had to turn the chair in order to get out of it. Otherwise, I'll be standing on the top step of the stairs.
Thank you, Alice, for your honesty. It is not physically possible to do what you ask regarding the chair at the top of the stairs with a straight stairlift. A curved stairlift would give you the option to continue past the stairs, as the rail can be curved at the top. A two-way powered swivel is available for upgrade.

I checked online and asked people that had a stairlift. Most people picked another company, but I went with Stannah. There was something about them. They're five stars and all good reviews. When I called, I got a callback right away and we set up an appointment. The salesman who came called and told me he was 10 minutes out. He was a little early. I said, “No worries, I'm stuck in the house anyway.” When he came, he looked at the house and said it was going to be easy. He recommended things to us because we had to have electric put in before he came back. He was a very nice guy. When he left, he immediately emailed me and sent me a nice note.
With my brother's situation here in the home, if he gets any worse, I may have to sell the house, so then, I would want to sell the stairlift. Stannah is the only company that gave any type of a buyback, that they would come in and take it out for me for free. That's the only thing the salesman didn't give me. I wrote to him, and I said, “I didn't get that.” He immediately sent it right back to me. Everything they did, there was never this uneasy feeling. He gave me my extra week to get the electric in too.
With the salesperson who came, the installer came in wearing gloves, a mask, and booties, and worried about my house. I told him he didn't have to put those. He went above and beyond installing the stairlift perfectly. He also wanted to train my brother and he took the time to go up and meet him. He was terrific. The things that I worried about, like would my brother understand? The installer said, “Look, I'll get them to understand it. You don't worry because he'll do it.” My brother is mentally slow and didn't understand. The installer showed him again. It was an absolute pleasure.
The stairlift is streamlined and clean-looking. Even when the installer put the little bit of wire in, he put a nice, little white thing that matched the woodwork. He also put a thing on the doorstep so that if anybody was to come in, and the seat was there, it would stop the door. Things that I didn't even think about. The installer also showed me how the remote controls worked. If I wanted to hang it, he was gonna hang it for me. I didn't need him to do that, but he offered it.
I put a review out there and I rarely take time to do that. I don't think I've ever had such service, from beginning to end, as I did with Stannah Stairlifts. It’s absolutely A-class. I would recommend them to anyone. The chair itself, I love the way it turns. Everything pushes up. It's very easy to use and it was a very simple procedure for my brother to do. We've had the stairlift for weeks now. Thank God, I've had no problems with it. It cleans nicely. I'm 1,000% happy with everything.

Our choice is a stairlift or an elevator. But we couldn't find an elevator that would meet our needs and housing requirements. So we went to the stairlift and Stannah met everything that we needed. The solution was not only satisfactory, but it was economically much better. We went down to the local dealer, and it was an excellent meeting. And then the meeting when Michelle came up to measure was excellent.
We asked Stannah to press on quickly when it was becoming obvious that we needed it with a little more urgency than we originally thought when we ordered it, and they were very accommodating. They made an arrangement to come out almost immediately and install it, and the installation was very effective. The system was explained well to us and we were very happy. We're very comfortable with the stairlift. It took a little getting used to. There's a curvature to the staircase, and you're not used to going up that way.

I'm alone most of the time and if I want to go upstairs, there's nowhere for me to bring anything with me. You’re holding the button to go up, so you only have one free hand and it’s hard to bring something with you. Then you have to have a place to put it once you get to the top of the stairs.

I looked on the internet and I was looking for somebody that could show me something locally, and I found Stannah had a mini showroom here in Hamden. The salesman and installer were both excellent. The straight stairlift fits very well. The way you have the bottom track retract and extend turned out to be an important thing. We have a very narrow opening at the base of the stairs, and that was a good feature that I discovered after I looked into Stannah. And the fact that it's powered. Some companies, it's a manual device to do the similar equivalent function.
Take advantage of an actual demonstration, either in the mini operation here in Hamden or up at your main headquarters. Because it's not one, two, three in your brain to do everything that you need to do. I wonder if some people might have difficulty with the complexity of operation or the needed strength to operate the up and down switches. So, if you need, you can get exposed to it. I also was concerned about getting off of the chairlift and learned something about the turning of the chair and that access. So, get some hands-on even with a high recommendation.

Thank you Maryann for your honest feedback and your five-star review. Our records indicate a coupon was applied to your order. We're glad you are happy with you new Stannah stairlift.

The installer told me that it would take about five hours for the installation but it took way over that, about eight hours. But the quality of the stairlift's been good. I haven't had any issues with it. I originally bought the less expensive chair, but I found it too obtrusive in my small stairway. So then I upgraded to a folding chair. It's still obtrusive in the stairway. But we're dealing with it.
Thanks Amy for your review. We apologize for any miscommunication, our installers do try to give their best time estimate for installations. The ability of the seat and armrests to fold on the Siena versus the Scout is certainly less obtrusive and should give you plenty of room to walk by when not in use. If you have any questions or need further assistance please don't hesitate to call us. Otherwise, we're glad to hear you stairlift has been performing well.

I talked with the installer briefly and he seemed knowledgeable and a nice kid. Seeing parts of the stairlift being installed right before my eyes, it appeared to be a quality system that he was putting in. I didn't see the final product other than through some pictures. But it sounds like it's fulfilling my tenant's need. She's enjoying it now being able to get from first floor to second floor.

My wife broke her leg about five years ago. We live in a two story cape so there was no way to get her upstairs. So I went online searching for stairlifts and Stannah was the better chair to buy so we purchased it. Subsequently, this summer, she tripped and fell and broke the same leg upstairs. So while she was able to get up and down through the house with a stairlift, she was unable to get from the landing to the garage floor to get into the car. We were just using a ramp system. So now that she's walking again, we decided to get a second chair from Stannah.
I like the stairlift because of the service behind it. I've never had an issue when I've called for service. Someone's always been here. So it was kind of highly rated that way. I've had the other chair serviced a couple times for various problems and I've never had to wait longer than 24 hours to have someone show up and fix it. Stannah is the best chairlift you can buy because my neighbors have the other brands and they kind of look cheap. My father-in-law lives in Michigan and we told him to get a Stannah chair and he bought one.
Thank you Kevin for sharing your story. We are sorry to hear of your wife's injuries and glad to have been able to provide a reliable and safe solution for your stairs. We're honored to have you as a repeat customer and grateful that you have recommended us to your family.

We like that Stannah is based locally and provides support if the stairlift breaks. I looked at another stairlift that’s comparable, but they're based out of Florida. My experience with the sales agent of Stannah was very pleasant. The sales agent was very nice and very informative. The installation guy was great too. They installed it in 24 hours. The stairlift fits in fine in the stairwell. It's reliable and the quality is very good. It hasn't given us any problems. My wife's comfortable on it, so that's an important thing.

They asked us about the installation and where the stairlift was going to be. Then they came out and recommended the model that we need to install. We initially picked an older model but they recommended a new one because it saved more place. We got the straight model and my mother is okay with it. Sometimes, it tends to reset a little bit, which she was going to call the company at some point about that. She sends it down after going up for the night because there’s more room on the base of the staircase. But it wouldn’t come back up again. So it has to have somebody open the door and hit one of the buttons. Then it resets itself and it moves. It happened twice out of a month of operation now. But other than that, everything went smooth.

I was impressed with the rep of Stannah. He seemed like a very honest and very capable person. He didn't push. He didn't give me any pressure to buy, he just gave me the facts. The stairlift fits very well. The thing was very smooth for the first day or two. Then for some reason, it developed this shaking as I went up to certain parts of the stairs. It was not slipping, but it felt like it should be tighter. I'm just afraid that it might strip that track.

The sales visit from Stannah and the installation were very good. The only reason I had to call them was that we didn't get a payment book. Other than that, the quality of the stairlift has been good, so far. The straight stairlift fits all right into the stairwell. If you put the arms and chair up, the space fine. I don't have to go up and down steps all day long with it.

I wanted to get the steel rail for the Stannah Stairlift that is like an anodized color. I asked the installer and the salesperson if he had one piece of it as a sample because the white stanchions that hold the rail in place are unattractive. This is because I have a body shop that does car repairs and they can match the color to be able to get me paint so I can paint the white stanchions to blend in with the rail. The rail would be less pronounced as it disappears into brown very nicely whereas white kinda says "Here I am". Also, the stairlift takes away some of the exercise we need in this COVID problem. Still, it's almost like an amusement park right. But, instead of beep, beep, beep, it should have something more like a merry-go-round music to it. Other than that, we're very very happy with the stairlift. It goes up and down the way it's supposed to. The installer was very thorough and intent on making sure that everything functioned correctly and was in place. He did a very good job. I'd definitely recommend Stannah to a friend.

Stannah's rep knew their product and he wasn't pushy. The installer was a nice guy and he got ours installed very quickly. We like the latch thing coming down to the floor instead of having to go around the corner for the chair. We've had a very good experience with Stannah.

Originally, I was told that the installation would take four to five hours. Instead, it took six or seven. I purchased a chair with a power swivel but the gentleman who installed said there was an issue with the power swivel. The chair as is didn't have it. There is an appointment upcoming this Tuesday but I had to follow up on that. The company was not proactive in following up and letting me know a timetable when the power swivel could be installed. It took weeks to do that and I had to call them at least six times. Other than that, the installers were great. The stairlift has been working fine.
Thank you Mr. S. for your honest feedback. We apologize for any miscommunication you may have experienced. You would have received information on both our curved models, each with their own timeline, se we can see where there may have been confusion.

The sales visit and installation of our stairlift went fine. One guy came to install it and he took about three hours. He did a great job and it's very sturdy. When he was done, he showed me how it works. It's not in the way at all and we've been able to use it. We like the way it turns. When my mother gets up to the top of the step, she can lift the handle up, turn her body and it sets her right on the top landing. It also has a remote at the top and at the bottom which is very good. If the stairlift stays up, my mother forgets we can remotely bring it down also. It works very well.

As far as we're concerned, there is no other stairlift. For years, we were saying, “We need to get a Stannah stairlift.” With COVID, my interaction with the sales rep was very brief. He wasn't here longer than five minutes and I already had my mind made up anyway, so there was no selling. Installation was seamless as well. I have a straight stairlift and I'm absolutely happy with it. It's perfect. It's made life easier too. It takes 51 seconds from the first floor to the second and that's all we needed. Stannah is a great company. They make sure that everything is to your liking from start to finish and they're very COVID-cautious. I have also recommended them to my friends, but unfortunately, they don't think they need it yet.
Thanks Lori for taking the time to share your Stannah Stairlift review. We're happy to have been able to make life easier for you as you continue living at home.

My wife got a disability, so we needed the stairlift together. I looked around and found Stannah. We called them, booked the installation, and we were done.

Other than that, the thing works fine. I’d recommend Stannah.

When the rep came, I was working and had to answer phone calls so I really rushed him. But he was wonderful about getting me the information in an abbreviated way. The fellow who came to install the four-stair lift was fabulous. He took his time, explained everything, and showed us how to work it. He answered every question we had and gave us resources if we had questions going forward. We love the stairlift. We also have an Acorn but I like the Stannah way better. I'm satisfied. It made things easier for us to access our whole home. We have an elevated living room, so with the stairlift, the woman who lives with us can now be inclusive and kind of participate in the things we all do. So it's a really nice feature to have that ability for her.

A friend of ours did some research. My wife asked her to do some research and it was good. And she read an article in the Daily News. So, Stannah's publicity is working. The install team was efficient, fast, left without leaving a mark around the work when found. So, very neat on the worksite too, which is always nice. The stairlift was expensive, but I couldn't make the stairs anymore. It's a good piece of equipment. However, I would like the stairlift to be a little faster. You crawl up the stairs on its seat. But it's very smooth. A couple of boys live upstairs. They love to ride it and play with it. I would recommend to anyone who needs it that that is a proper and appropriate help, and quiet, a pleasure to go up and go down. It's nice when things do what they are supposed to.

I like the construction of the Stannah Stairlifts. Their rep presented the options to us and it was very professional. When I decided to go, they took really professional measurements to assure that when they built the rails, it would fit into my stairs. The people that did the installation were excellent. I have a height and distance restriction on my stairs. So the lift I've selected allows me to use the lift if I want to use it because I'm a big man. The stairlift is well constructed and fits our staircase. It's curved and it makes a 180 turn at the bottom of the stairs and a 90-degree turn at the top, runs along the railing. It’s an excellent product and I totally recommend it.

It’s difficult for my mom to go up and down the stairs. We purchased a Stannah stairlift and the interaction with their sales rep was pretty good although somehow, we miscommunicated at one point. We wanted the lift to be able to park at a different location. But I didn't know the modular one does not allow the chair to be placed at a different location. Because of that, my dad had to go around it when he parked downstairs or upstairs, and sometimes it’s not convenient. Other than that, everything else works fine.

We needed a stairlift for my mother who is 88 years old and had a knee replacement surgery. We wanted her to be able to go from her living room area to an upper floor where her bedroom was. We did a lot of research and Stannah had the best reviews. We went to their location here in Massachusetts and experienced it in their showroom. They came to the home to first look at the staircase that we wanted to put it on and gave us an estimate of the cost. When we decided we were going to install it, they came back to do measurements. Everything went very smoothly and timely. Everything they said happened when they said it would and how it would.
The stairlift is very high-quality. The chair itself is made well and there's nothing inexpensive about any of it. It makes my mother very happy. She uses it a few times everyday and she feels comfortable and secure. We don't worry about her coming up and down the stairs anymore.
