What exactly is COPD?
COPD, a disease that is little known to the public, is nevertheless one of the most common lung diseases worldwide. But what exactly is COPD, also known as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease?
Curved stairlifts can be quite expensive. This article describes prices, options, and cheaper alternatives to the curved stairlift.
Curved stairlifts are available in all kinds of different designs and price ranges. As curved stairlifts usually have to be customised to the staircase, this has a significant impact on the price and delivery time.
The typical price range for curved stairlifts is between 7,500 and 15,000 euros, including the statutory warranty period of 2 years. (Average comparative prices, public information for the German market 2024)
As curved stairlifts are usually custom-made for your staircase, it is unfortunately very difficult to resell them as a used product on the private market after a few years.
The average service life of a curved stairlift is approx. 2 years. The monthly costs can therefore be considerable, as you only have a very low resale value compared to the purchase costs.
As already mentioned, the purchase costs are quite high compared to the value you still have after the manufacturer’s warranty has expired. However, you can purchase an extended warranty period, which covers all service and repair costs.
As a rule, stairlifts need to be serviced every 6 to 12 months, at a cost of around 200 to 300 euros per year. (Average comparative prices, public information for the German market 2024)In
addition to the high price, curved stairlifts are known to take up a lot of space in and around your staircase. The seat unit often stands at a distance of around 60 cm from the wall. This is also the reason why curved stairlifts sometimes do not comply with building regulations.
One of the greatest health benefits is being able to move around independently and climb stairs for as long as possible.
Daily activities such as hoovering, short walks and climbing stairs are important to remain active in old age. A study of 36,000 people from Norway, Sweden, the UK and the US shows that these small daily activities have a profound impact on your health and life expectancy.
