A Stairlift classic, the Brooks Lincoln was discontinued in 2005 and evolved into the Brooks 130 Straight Stairlift. Reconditioned models still in circulation offer several benefits and considerations to keep in mind:

Manufacturer
Since it’s emergence in the early 1970’s, Brooks Stairlifts has steadily gained recognition as a reputable player in the mobility industry. Over the years, their dedication to crafting reliable, safe, and user-friendly Stairlifts has led to the development of an extensive product lineup catering to both straight and curved staircases. An important chapter in their history was the acquisition by ACORN, a leading name in the stairlift industry known for their innovative approach and commitment to customer satisfaction. This acquisition marked a significant milestone, allowing Brooks Stairlifts to leverage ACORN’s expertise and resources to further advance their product offerings and accessibility solutions. These days Acorn and Brooks Stairlifts are largely the same product. Acorn sell directly to the public as Acorn and through their dealer network as Brooks.
