What To Look For In A Reconditioned Stairlift?
All of our stairlifts have sleek and innovative designs and chairs that fold up when not in use so the stairs aren’t in any way obstructed by the stairlift. They are sturdy and powerful whilst still remaining quiet and can be used with remote controls to make them easier to access.

A stairlift is a very simple electrical device that makes it easy to get up the stairs. A rail is attached to the wall or railing along the side of the stairs and then a chair is attached to that rails. The chair can then move easily along that rail and acts as a lift to transport you up and down the stairs.
Reconditioned stairlifts are no different from our brand-new stairlifts. The only difference is it has been preowned. Because of this, we can sell them at a more cost-effective price for those who cannot afford to buy a stairlift brand new.

Benefits of Choosing a Reconditioned Stairlift
Investing in a stairlift is a big decision, and choosing a reconditioned one can be a smart and practical choice. Here are some key benefits of opting for a reconditioned model:

One of the biggest advantages of choosing a reconditioned lift is the cost savings.

Each used stairlift undergoes thorough testing, servicing, and refurbishment to ensure it meets the same safety and performance standards as a brand-new model. Any worn-out or faulty components are replacing, and only the best-quality stairlifts are resold.
- Environmentally Friendly Choice
Opting for a reconditioned stairlift is also a more sustainable and eco-friendly option. By reusing and refurbishing stairlift, we help reduce waste and minimize the environmental impact associated with manufacturing new stairlifts.

Common Myths About Reconditioned Stairlifts
There are many misconceptions surrounding reconditioned stairlifts that may make people hesitant to choose one. However, most of these concerns are based on myths rather than facts. Here, we will debunk some of the most common misunderstandings about reconditioned stairlifts.
Reconditioned Stairlifts Are Unsafe
Reconditioned stairlifts go through rigorous testing, servicing, and quality checks before they are resold. Any worn out or faulty parts are replaced and they must meet the same high safety standards as brand-new stairlifts. At Senior Stairlifts, we only sell reconditioned models that pass our strict safety inspections.
They Don’t Last as Long as New Stairlifts
A properly serviced and well-maintained reconditioned stairlift can last just as long as a new one. Many stairlifts are built to be highly durable, and with regular servicing, a reconditioned model will provide years of reliable use.
Reconditioned Stairlifts Look Old and Worn-Out
People often assume that reconditioned stairlifts will appear used or outdated. However, all reconditioned stairlifts are thoroughly cleaned, refurbished, and often fitted with new seats or parts to ensure they look and function like new ones. In many cases, you wouldn’t even be able to tell the difference.
They Don’t Come with a Warranty
Reconditioned stairlifts do come with a warranty, just like new ones. At Senior Stairlifts, we have such trust in our reconditioned stairlifts that we offer a 36-month comprehensive warranty to ensure your stairlift stays in top condition.
