| Bob from Washington would recommend this to a friend. |
A Little About Myself |
Pros High quality product. Very good instructions. Parts kit not missing anything (a condition not always achieved in kitting parts). Good value. |
Cons There are two (I think recently added to the design) proximity sensors with 2-pin connectors. The nylon connector housings don't mate. Luckily the product works without these connected. |
Service & Delivery Chris was very helpful and delivery was rapid. |
The dimension worksheet was easy to use and the rail length that resulted was perfect. |
AmeriGlide Wilmington NC replies:
Thanks for the review Bob! We'll definitely look into the connector issue. Thank you for mentioning it, and we'll be sure to get back to you. |
| Excellent Value |

| DP from NM would recommend this to a friend. |
A Little About Myself Fiber optic engineer |
Pros Once the factory faults were resolved, it works great.
Great tech support |
Cons Came without "charging cable" that goes in the rail to charging points. Switches were wired wrong from factory caused the unit not to work after install completed. Install manual could better define some directions.The under seat switch actuator arm could be more stout (it tends to bend as the roller tracts as the seat turns. this caused a fault that caused the unit to stop) |
Service & Delivery Delivery was on time and since I installed the unit, service is great.
The tech support I received I received while trouble shooting the faults was the best I could have asked for. With the support, I can say I know far more about testing for faults than I wanted. However, having said that, your tech provided an in depth training session that allowed me (us) to find the factory faults. |
I installed this for an 89 year old friend of ours and one the small issues were fixed, she is very pleased with the unit. It has allowed her to, once again, use the upper level of her home. As a result, there are some more people here that are interested in a unit as well. |
AmeriGlide Wilmington NC replies:
Hi DP, thanks for your in-depth review. We apologize for the wiring problem you found, but I'm glad our tech support was able to help you through the issue with relative ease. I did some research into the issue and found that this is a problem does rarely occur in about 1 out of every 100 orders. It is rare, however we have taken steps today to ensure that this type of problem won't happen again. Thanks again for your review, and we're glad that your friend is pleased with the unit! |

| Grampe from Juneau, Alaska would recommend this to a friend. |
A Little About Myself A Handy Man |
Pros First lift took 7 hours. 2nd lift had a blown fuse and had to trouble shoot it. Put in new 7.5 fuse and works great. Only took 5 hours on 2nd lift and two hours to trouble shoot. |
Cons Nothing I can think of. Explanations were very clear. |
Service & Delivery Good service and very quick. |
Wife can now get upstairs. It is fantastic. First picture is of #1 Chair Lift. 2nd picture is Both Chair Lift. |
AmeriGlide Wilmington NC replies:
Thanks for your review Grampe! Glad the lift is working great. Sounds like it took a little longer than our average installation, but we like to hear that you're happy with the product. |
| We enjoy using the stair lift. It is used many times each day by both of us. |

A Little About Myself |
Pros Excellent service, delivery as promised, and great installer with Cliff ********. |
Cons Chair seat only swivels to the left at the top of the stairs. It would be nice if the swivel of the chair seat swiveled both ways. |
Service & Delivery A better process is needed for coordinating with the installer once the stair lift product is delivered to the location. A little more guidance to the customer is needed in your processes. |
Thank you for a competent process. |
AmeriGlide Wilmington NC replies:
Thank you for your 5-star review! We have made some tweaks to our install process, so thank you for your critique. We also apologize that you do not like the swivel function at the top of the stairs, however the stair lift seat only swivels to the side to exit the stair lift as a safety feature. It could be a safety issue if the user accidentally swiveled to the side pointing down the stairs. |

Pros Works great! |
Cons The installation manual. |
Really a good product. Economical and fast delivery. The installation manual was useless however. Step one involved drilling a half inch hole through metal to install a cable guide. Never used the cable guide....Instructions went downhill from there. |
