The stair lifts are mechanical chairs that are installed on. Testing and replacing the batteries is something that should only be done by an experienced stairlift technician. This recall involves Acorn brand motorized stair lifts with the model name Acorn Superglide 120. The track also has flat sides compared to the older Acorn Superglide with rounded sides. The newer Acorn 130 stairlift track measures 5-1/2 wide and is made of aluminum. The newer and older version must be compatible when joining sections. Inevitably someone will leave the lift off the charging station or the batteries will just run low over time and need to be replaced. Acorn rail has been manufactured in two different styles. The most common issue we see on this lift is batteries, which is typical for most stairlifts. When the lift is not in operation it must be parked precisely on these charging contacts or the batteries can discharge and in some cases require replacement. The adapter has a cable that routes to charging stations at the top and bottom of the lift. The lift plugs into a standard household outlet with a 15 volt AC adapter. The extra control switch is particularly useful for a person with limited mobility in one hand. Most lifts will just have one control switch on a single armrest. One of our favorite features is the ability to operate the lift from either control located at the end of the armrest. The rail should always be kept clean and visually inspected. While this isn’t a huge deal it gives the lift more of a mechanical look and can cause service-related issues. One thing to note about the track on the Acorn 130 and T700 models is the exposed gear rack on the face or top of the rail. Our recommended minimum width of stairs for installation of this lift is 32″ and preferably 34-36″ More Useful Information They also come in many price ranges, and can also be bought used. They are easily installed, and come in a variety of models including curved stairlifts as well as others adapted for complex stairways. The rail or track is on the slightly wider side at 5-1/2″ but still leaves plenty of room for anyone else using the stairs. Acorn stairway lifts provide safety, comfort and convenience for the immobile or mobile-challenged. The overall appearance of the lift is good and will fit nicely into most homes with its tan color upholstery and light color of the mechanical covers. The manufacturer, originally from the UK began selling stairlifts in the United States in the early ’90s and has become one of the largest distributors of stair lifts in the market. The Acorn 130 stairlift is the most common lift we see in homes and is what we would refer to as an entry-level model made for moderate use.
