Flow X details
Aesthetic design: The Flow X is known for its sleek and modern design, which may be contrary to beliefs that many people had about the aesthetics of a stairlift. With the ability to seamlessly blend into your home or stand as a feature, the Flow X sets itself apart from other stairlifts with its fresh, sleek design.
ASL Technology: One of the unique features of the Flow X is its ASL Technology (advanced swivel and leveling technology) which allows it to fit into the most narrow of curved staircases. This feature allows the lift to rotate while it’s in motion, meaning bends and turns are no issue for the lift and its the reason it can fit onto staircases as narrow as 620mm
Safety features: The Flow X boasts a range of safety features to keep you safe on every ride. These features include smart detection device in the armrests, a one-handed operation seatbelt, and wrap-around armrests to keep you secure throughout travel.
Call device: On the armrest of the Flow X you’ll find a call device that allows you to have up to 3 telephone numbers contactable directly from your stairlift. This feature provides an extra layer of security and safety when using your stairlift, 3 of your family or friends are contactable by the touch of a button.
Light Assist: A motion-activated lighting system that enhances safety and ease of use. A soft under-arm light illuminates key areas as you approach, and a colour-coded seatbelt light clearly shows when you’re safely buckled, providing comfort and clarity without disruption.

A Flow X in East Sussex & West Kent
The Flow X is an ideal curved stairlift for anyone in the East Sussex or West Kent area. Known for its sleek and modern design and its advanced swivel and levelling technology that allows it to fit into the most narrow of staircases.
The Flow X is ergonomically designed with a large backrest and seat area as well as a 5-degree seat recline in order to promote healthy sitting posture. The slight seat recline is also put in place to eliminate the slipping feeling that people often feel when using their stairlift.
The armrests feature dual status lights that are always visible, regardless of your direction of travel, ensuring that you remain in complete control. There is an emergency lowering button located on the arm, and patented angular armrest detection is equipped on both arms. This feature ensures that the stair lift will not operate unless the armrests are in the correct position.
