What to Look For in An Electric Chair Lift

By Febbe Wallace

It's easy to see the benefits of an electric chair lift. It's therefore not surprising if you to think of buying one if you need it. It is quite likely though that you may not exactly know which features to look for. Before you buy your own chair, consider which features are best for you.

Functions of Your Chair Lift

Lifts are specifically designed to lift its occupants to a particular height and lower them again to the ground. It can contribute to the ease of movement of the elderly or those with medical conditions that impede movement. Patients and caregivers simply need to use a chair lift to facilitate getting up from a comfortable sitting position.

Look for a lift that functions and serves its purpose well. This means your electric chair should be able to help you get up safely with no risk of injury. Your chair should also be sturdy enough to withstand everyday use. Look for construction features such as the kind of wood used and how it is attached to the chair structure. Consider too how many springs are used and what kind of material is used for the exterior. Functionality and durability are your top considerations.

Other Features

There are also other features of an electric chair lift that you need to consider. Chairs aren't built for all sizes. You therefore need one that will fit both your height and weight. You might also be more comfortable being able to operate your chair from a specific side. Some chairs come with extra features like a massage function.

One other important feature consideration is the number of positions that an electric chair can take. This feature also determines how many motors your chair will have. A 2 position chair usually has one motor. Aside from lifting, it can also recline to a certain angle short of a full reclining position. In most cases, the footrest comes up when you make it recline.

Most chairs will have 3 positions, allowing for full reclining position. It also has one motor and a footrest that works together with the recliner. Both 2 and 3 position recliners can be set at any angle that falls within the scope of its full angle reclining position.

If you want greater flexibility, you can also choose a two motor chair. This chair can be reclined fully or at any angle. Its reclining control and foot rest control can also be operated separately.

Guarantees

There are many chairs and different brands to choose from. Before you pick your chair, do some comparison shopping online. Compare sites, brand prices, product features and extra client benefits so you get only the best deal possible.

Pick reputable brands. Aside from getting a very sturdy chair, you are also assured of having real warranties and prompt customer support.

You will never know how life-changing an electric wheel chair lift can be until you or a friend with physical disability has tried it. It is important though that you only get the best there is. Be a wise and careful electric chair shopper.
