What is Straight Lift Positioning?
Straight Lift was designed to provide safer transfer options by lifting vertically instead of tilting forward. This unique motion helps maintain stability and balance, ensuring a secure transition to a standing or seated position. Golden is the only lift chair manufacturer to offer a Straight Lift option.
