Which Stairlifts to buy?

Hi friends,

I have my relatives living in the UK. Last year, My Aunt met with an accident and got her leg fractured. She has been recovered but the doctors have advised her not to climb upstairs.

She do not have problems with it but seriously I feel it very bad when she feels imprisoned in her own home. Recently, one of my friends suggested me to use Stairlifts.

I just wanted to ask if anybody of you have an experience with stairlifts? I look forward for reply as it will help me to decide which company's stairlift to buy.

Thanks in advance.:)

    If your aunt is a permanent resident of the UK she should contact her local Social Services and ask for an assessment from an Occupational Therapist: her GP surgery will be able to provide contact details.
