The Flow X

It also promotes healthy sitting posture by having a large backrest and seat with a 5-degree recline that also eliminates the slipping feeling many people get while using a stair lift.
Safety and convenience is a big part of what makes the Flow X a modern and innovative stairlift. Some of the safety features include safety sensors that detect any obstruction in the stairlift path and stop the stairlift, a one-handed operation and wrap-around armrests to keep you secure during travel

Why choose a Modern Stairlift?
A modern stairlift can provide you with innovative safety features and high-level aesthetics and comfort. Modern stairlifts usually come in a range of different seat designs and colours so they can easily be blended into any home and not stand out and be an eyesore. Also, modern stairlifts are usually slimmer and take up less space compared to stairlifts with an older design. When the footrest, seat and armrests are folded, these stairlifts are almost undetectable.
A modern stairlift can also provide more safety for the user with innovative safety features that you may not find on older stairlifts. Features on the Flow X like the call device on the armrest allow a user to call the phone number of a family member or carer at the touch of a button in case of an emergency while on the stairlift.
