Things to consider before buying a stairlift

When considering buying a stairlift, it’s crucial to choose the right company. Look for companies with positive customer reviews, membership in reputable trade bodies, and staff with Enhanced DBS checks. Ensure the initial assessment covers both current and future needs and is performed by a qualified assessor. Pay attention to service contracts and aftercare options, ensuring you have access to 24/7 support and reasonable maintenance costs. Check if the company offers a buyback policy and employs accredited engineers. Consider whether a straight or curved stairlift is needed, and evaluate the cost-effectiveness of buying versus renting. If considering a reconditioned stairlift, ensure it meets modern safety standards and has available spare parts. Always be cautious of unscrupulous sales tactics and take time to compare quotes.
