Guide to purchasing used stair lifts

Do you think that a pre-owned stair lift is something that could meet your needs? Our guide will provide you with the facts to help you make an informed decision about whether this option is right for you.

Why consider buying a used stair lift?

Purchasing a reconditioned or used stairlift can be a great alternative if your budget does not allow you to purchase a new one.

There are many reasons why buying a used stair lift may be a good option for you,

  • Save money. Buying a used one can be a great way to save money. Used stair lifts can cost up to 30% less than the equivalent new model.
  • Get a quality product. Even though it is used, a stair lift can still be a quality product.   Reputable stairlift companies will only sell used stair lifts that are in excellent condition and have been well-maintained.
  • Get a warranty. Reputable stairlift dealers offer a warranty on the used stair lifts they sell. This will protect you in case the lift breaks down within a certain period of time.
  • Help the environment. By buying a used stair lift, you can help to reduce waste and conserve resources.

If you are looking for a safe, reliable, and affordable way to get around your home, then buying a used stair lift may be the right choice for you.

Where to buy a used stair lift

While you may be able to find used stair lifts advertised online through a private seller, our recommedation is to always buy a used or reconditioned stair lift from a professional stairlift company.  Stair lifts should be installed by a trained technician to ensure they are correctly installed and safe to use.  See our guide on stair lift installation for more information.

Please keep in mind, used stock levels do flucuate so they are not always available.

Frequently asked questions on buying used stair lifts

Are reconditioned stairlifts safe?

All our reconditioned lifts are fully tested and inspected to ensure all components are in good working order and the lift is safe for use.  Our used lifts are typically less than 12 months old and come with a 1 year parts and labor warranty for your peace of mind.

How much does a used stair lift cost?

As with a new stair lift, it varies depending on the staircase configuration and you individual needs.   Reconditioned stairlifts for curved staircases are not typically available as each one is custom built to fit an individual staircase but for straight stairs, it should not be a problem.  Used stairlifts are generally 20 to 30% less than new models, depending on the age and condition of the lift.
