Why Choose the SA350 for Home Use?
Home environments often mean tight spaces, narrow doorways, and the need for quick, solo transfers—challenges that bulkier lifts can't handle well. The SA350's compact footprint and maneuverable base solve this perfectly, letting you move it easily from bedroom to bathroom without rearranging furniture.
Its electric power eliminates manual pumping or heavy lifting, which is a game-changer for family caregivers who may not have professional training or strength. By supporting partial weight-bearing, it encourages users to stay active and build leg strength over time, potentially reducing long-term dependency. Safety features like padded supports and a stable platform minimize fall risks, giving everyone peace of mind.
At a sale price significantly below competitors (currently $1,199 from $1,699), plus extras like a free sling, free battery, and a 3-year limited warranty, the SA350 delivers premium performance without the premium cost. It's especially popular for home setups where affordability and space are priorities.

How It Compares to Other Models
Compared to full-body patient lifts, the SA350 is far more compact and promotes active participation rather than passive lifting. Within the sit-to-stand category, it stands out for its space-saving design versus wider models like some Protekt or Lumex options. If you need higher capacity (e.g., 500–600 lb), look at bariatric alternatives—but for most home users under 350 lb, the SA350 offers better maneuverability and value. For a full side-by-side comparison including the Joerns Hoyer Journey, Protekt 600, Lumex LF2090, and others, check our detailed guide: Best Electric Sit-to-Stand Lifts of 2026: Top Models for Home & Caregivers.

Frequently Asked Questions about Sit-to-Stand Lifts
What is a sit-to-stand lift, and how is it different from a full patient lift?
A sit-to-stand lift (also called a stand assist lift) helps someone move safely from a seated position (like a chair, bed edge, or toilet) to standing, and back down. Unlike full-body patient lifts (e.g., Hoyer-style ceiling or floor lifts), sit-to-stand models support the upper body while the user bears weight through their legs. This promotes muscle use, circulation, and dignity. It's ideal for people who can partially weight-bear and cooperate but need help rising.
Who can use a sit-to-stand lift?
These lifts work best for individuals with some leg strength and balance who can sit unsupported briefly and follow simple instructions. They're great for home caregivers helping elderly family members, post-surgery recovery, or people with conditions like arthritis, Parkinson's, or mild stroke effects. They are not suitable for non-weight-bearing users—full-body lifts are better in those cases. Always consult a doctor or therapist to confirm fit.
Are sit-to-stand lifts safe for home use?
Yes—very safe when used correctly. Models from trusted brands like Joerns, Lumex, Best Care, and Protekt include features like emergency stop buttons, stable bases, padded supports, and battery backups on electric versions. They reduce fall risk and caregiver strain compared to manual transfers. Follow the manufacturer's instructions, use the right sling/size, and never exceed the weight capacity.
What weight capacities do your sit-to-stand lifts offer?
Do you have portable or compact sit-to-stand lifts for smaller homes?
Absolutely. Models like the Hoyer Journey (fully portable/folding), Dansons SA350 Compact, and some BestStand versions are designed for tight spaces, narrow doorways, and easy storage. Electric versions are battery-powered—no cords to trip over—and many have adjustable bases for maneuvering around furniture.
Are your sit-to-stand lifts electric, hydraulic, or manual?
We offer all three:
Electric models are the most popular for home use due to minimal effort.
Do I need a special sling, and are they included?
Most sit-to-stand lifts use a simple stand-assist sling (around the torso/under arms) that the user grips. Some include a basic sling; others require purchase separately. We recommend matching sling size to the user for comfort and safety. Check product details or contact us for sling recommendations from our slings collection.
How do I choose the best sit-to-stand lift for my needs?
Consider: weight capacity, electric vs. manual, portability, space in your home, and user mobility level. For 2026 home caregivers, top picks include the portable Joerns Hoyer Journey, powerful Protekt 600 (bariatric), or affordable BestStand SA400 series. See our blog post "Best Electric Sit-to-Stand Lifts of 2026" for a full comparison and reviews.
Can one caregiver operate a sit-to-stand lift alone?
Yes—in most cases, especially with electric models. The powered lift does the heavy work, so a single caregiver can manage transfers safely (with training). Always ensure the user is cooperative and the area is clear.
