What To Know About Buying A Refurbished Stairlift

New stairlifts can be incredibly expensive. A refurbished stairlift can be a good cost-saving alternative. They are much cheaper compared to new stairlifts, sometimes only costing half as much as a new unit. 

Other than the significantly reduced costs, most refurbished stairlifts are usually relatively new and only 12 months old. They can be installed within a day, making the process much faster compared to new stairlifts. With minor adjustments and maintenance, refurbished stairlifts can be as good as new units.

Are Refurbished Stairlifts Safe? 

Incorrect installation of stairlifts can compromise your safety. Make sure to engage a professional, such as Freedom Stairlifts, to install your stairlift. As we use high-quality parts, undergo careful maintenance, and engage in rigorous safety checks, each and every one of the products we sell are as safe as new models. If you follow instructions and take recommended precautions, the stairlifts at Freedom Stairlifts are one of the safest products on the market.

Most of our stairlifts can carry up to 260 lbs. If you require a stairlift model with a higher weight limit, you contact us to purchase one that suits your needs. If you adhere to the weight limit, you can ensure your and your loved ones’ safety.

What’s the Set-Up Process Like?

At Freedom Stairlifts, we will install your stairlift within one to six hours, depending on the model. During installation, the seat and motor will be renovated, and the rails will be customized to fit your staircase. The rail might either be prepared by the technician beforehand, or they will arrive with a longer piece of rail which will be cut to fit the measurements of your staircase. After installation, the technician will teach you how to operate the stairlift as well as all its functions. 

Do Refurbished Stairlifts come with a Warranty?

Refurbished stairlifts usually have a shorter warranty period. At Freedom Stairlifts, all of our products are high-performance and high quality. Most of our products have a 12-month warranty, and others have a two-year warranty for manufacturer’s parts, while others also include a limited lifetime warranty on the motor and gearbox. As warranties depend on the specific product in question, you can contact us and get in touch with one of our knowledgeable representatives to learn more about the warranties of each refurbished stairlift model we have and what they cover. All our products come with a labor warranty, so you do not need to worry if a malfunction happens in your stairlift system.
