Used stair lifts

Looking at used stair lifts is a good idea for most people who want to install a stair lift in their home. Most stair lift manufacturers have new stair lifts starting at $2,000 and usually charge close to $3,000 for the whole installation process. If you are recovering from an accident, or there are another reasons you are not going to use this stair lift for a long time, choosing a used stair lift is definitely a very good idea. You can save from $500 to $2,000 buying a used stair lift instead of installing a brand new one.

There are two ways you can get a used stair lift installed in your home. The first is to look for stair lifts on the private market to buy, and then hire someone to install it. This is the cheapest option usually, especially if you know someone that can help you install the stair lift in your home for cheap. To find stair lifts for sale I suggest looking in newspapers, Craigslist and maybe on Ebay too. The second option is to buy a used stair lift with installation from a stair lift dealer. This is a little more expensive, but you have the security of knowing that it is being installed by someone who knows what they are doing. Continue reading ‘Used stair lifts’ »
