Our Take

The Access BDD Flow X Stairlift is a curved-rail model that carries up to 125kg (19 stone). It uses the same platform as the S200, but with its own styling for a different market. Below, we set out the main benefits of the Flow X Stairlift, along with a point to check before you buy.

Benefits

Ease of Installation

The Flow X runs on a made-to-measure rail fixed to your stairs, not the wall. As a result, most homes need no building work before fitting.

Compact Design

The seat, arms and footrest fold away when the lift is parked. Therefore family members can still use the stairs with room to spare.

Smooth and Quiet Operation

The lift runs quietly and glides smoothly around each bend. Consequently the ride stays gentle all the way up and down.

Safety Features

The chair comes with a seatbelt and sensors that stop the lift if it meets an obstruction. In addition, the seat swivels and locks at the top, so you can step off safely.

Considerations

The unfolded width is 720mm (28.35″), which is on the wider side. Therefore check that your staircase can take this size before you order.

Other Models to Consider

For a curved staircase like the Access BDD Flow X Curved suits, a few other made-to-measure lifts are worth comparing. The Access BDD Flow 2A Curved is a close match on size and capacity and the Companion 2000 Curved is rated to 115kg, while the Stannah Sadler Curved has a wider 405mm folded footprint. A home survey will confirm the best fit.
