Stair Lift

Bruno Independent Living Aids, Oconomowoc, Wis, introduces the Electra-Ride Elite Stairlift (Model SRE-2010), the most "feature-rich" accessibility product in the company's history. The new Electra-Ride Elite is equipped with two 12-volt batteries that are continuously powered through a small battery charger that plugs into any household outlet. The Elite provides uninterrupted performance, even during a temporary failure of electrical service to the home. With a rated weight capacity of 400 pounds, and sensors that detect any obstacles on the stairs, the carriage and seat move up and down the staircase with power and efficiency. The new offset swivel seat makes the entry and exit position safer and easier than ever.

Representing more than a decade of research and engineering, the refinements in the new Elite include a honeycomb rail design for improved stability, and visual coded diagnostics to instantly analyze the unit's operational status. Offering a streamlined, ultracompact design, its vertical straight rail installs to within 6 inches (152 mm) from the wall. And, with seat height, footrest height, and armrest width all adjustable, Bruno's signature new stairlift provides comfort and flexibility.
