Buying guide

Is a sit-to-stand lift the right lift?

A sit-to-stand lift raises a seated person to standing and lets the caregiver roll them a short distance, typically from bed or chair to a toilet, commode or wheelchair. It suits someone who can bear some weight on their legs, hold the handles and follow instructions. If the person cannot do that, or needs lifting from the floor, choose a full-body patient lift with a sling instead.

Hydraulic or electric

  • Hydraulic: the caregiver pumps a handle to raise the person, and no battery is needed. SA182H and SA400H are rated for 400 lb, and SA228H for 500 lb.
  • Electric: a hand pendant raises and lowers the person from a rechargeable battery, so the caregiver can keep both hands on the person. SA182 and SA400HE are rated for 400 lb, and SA228 for 500 lb.
  • ProCare series: SA400 (400 lb), SA500 (500 lb) and SA600 (600 lb), BestCare's heavier-duty electric line.

Before you order

These lifts weigh 110 to 125 lb on casters, so measure door widths and the space in front of the toilet or chair where the base has to fit. Stand-assist slings are specific to BestStand lifts; the patient lift slings pages list which models each sling fits. Ask the person's therapist or nurse whether standing transfers are safe for them. For someone who can pull up to standing unaided, a manual stand aid costs less and has no motor to charge.

Frequently asked questions

Who should use a sit-to-stand lift?
Someone who can bear some weight on their legs, hold on with their hands and follow instructions, but cannot stand up safely on their own. People who cannot bear weight need a full-body sling lift instead.
What is the difference between hydraulic and electric sit-to-stand lifts?
A hydraulic lift is raised by the caregiver pumping a handle and needs no battery. An electric lift is raised with a hand pendant from a rechargeable battery, which is easier on the caregiver for frequent transfers.
How much weight can a sit-to-stand lift hold?
The BestStand lifts we sell are rated for 400, 500 or 600 lb depending on the model. The rating is in each product title.
Which sling do I need?
Stand-assist slings fit only BestStand lifts and differ from full-body slings. Each sling page lists the lift models and sizes it fits; choose the size from the person's measurements and have a clinician confirm the fit.
