Flow X Stairlift: Features, Specifications and Prices
A Curved Stairlift That Turns As It Travels
The Flow X from Access BDD runs on a single rail and its seat swivels and levels itself automatically as it travels. That keeps your knees and feet clear of walls and banisters on tight bends, which is why it suits steep, narrow and twisting staircases.
It fits stairs from 610 mm wide and up to a 72° incline, and carries users up to 125 kg (19 stone 10 lb).
Every price is a starting price that includes installation, VAT and a parts and labour warranty (3 years on new, 2 years on reconditioned). Your exact price depends on your staircase and the options you choose, and we confirm it in writing after a free home survey.

What Owners Say
There is very little independent owner feedback on the Flow X. The one genuine owner review we found was positive about the lift and its installation. Reviews of the UK supplier brand are positive overall (4.8 out of 5 on Trustpilot) but rarely name the model. Owners of the older Flow 2 said it suited narrow stairs well but was expensive.
An advisor visits at a time that suits you, measures your staircase and talks through the options. No charge and no obligation.
