It’s hard enough that you have to consider remodeling your home to allow for a better and more comfortable way to move between floors. Shopping for home stair lifts should be no-brainer, but there are a lot of things to consider and a lot of players involved.

Here are the companies involved in this market:

Bruno Stairlifts
Makes stair lifts right here in America, battery powered, for your home. Has some of the nicest curved staircase lifts. Is ISO-9001 Certified. Rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau. This company has been in business a long while, has managed to keep its nose clean, and people obvious like the lifts.

ThyssenKrupp Access
One of the nicest features of the ThyssenKrupp site is that they have live chat so you can sit back and ask questions while you ponder the pages, but it wasn’t working on the Friday noonish time we checked. Remember, these are sales people. ThyssenKrupp has been in business about 60 years and says they are the world’s most trusted name in home stair lifts. They offer three models.

AmeriGlide
The site is slow mainly because of a review site plug in they are using. Makes their whole site sluggish. They claim their home stair lifts are A17.1 and A18 safety standard rated. And they sell reconditioned units here as well. It appears they are mainly for the do-it-yourselfer. A whopping 5 year warranty on the stair lift. But don’t trust any reviews you see on a manufacturer’s site. They supposedly buy their lifts from Summit and change out the seat to call the unit their own.

Acorn
Started as a refurbisher in the early ’90′s, Acorn soon started making their own stair lift and became a world leader selling over 30,000 lifts a year. They operate worldwide. There are few complaints, but one person mentioned it took them weeks to get an install right and customer service was spotty. Battery replacement requires dismantling the whole unit.

Summit Stairlifts
Another Made in America stair lift, the Summit offers three models with varying features. Summit prides itself in reliability and I found that the best benefit of these units. You could potentially get trapped on the top floor if the unit failed. I believe that Summit is the best deal and value for you and has the best support. I recommend this home stair lift. They offer free shipping as well.

Harmar Stairway Lift
See Summit Stair Lift above.

Stannah
Stannah also claims to be the world’s largest in home stair lifts. Family owned and operated they manufacture their lifts and offer three models to choose from. One is an outdoor stair lift. They are made in the UK and have been the recipient of the Queen’s Award for Export Achievement.
