Frantic sprints from store to store. Hours of waiting impatiently in crowded, chaotic masses of Christmas customers. Sleepless nights of never-ending strings of online shopping searches.
Let’s face it—The most wonderful time of the year is also oftentimes the most wearisome time of the year.
Within the whirlwind of the winter wonderland festivities, the quest for the perfect gift can often become a source of stress, anticipation, and overwhelming pressure to attempt to put an immeasurable price and frilly, festive bow on a present that is supposed to personify how much your loved ones mean to you.
However, no need to panic!
Rather than exchanging unwanted gifts in January, this holiday season, you can exchange your wrapping worries with a wish list of the most popular and desired presents that your loved ones dream of waking up to on Christmas morning.

The Gift that Keeps on Giving –Gift Your Loved Ones an Acorn Stairlift This Holiday Season
Sometimes finding the perfect holiday gift to show someone how much you love them can be a struggle.
Luckily for you, Acorn Stairlifts has you covered this holiday season.
You can give your loved one a gift that is meaningful and practical, safe and stylish, discreet and life-changing—A gift that instead of sitting in a closet under a thick layer of dust, will be used multiple times a day, all while providing your loved one with a sense of independence, freedom, confidence, and mobility.
This holiday season, as you search for the perfect gift for your ageing loved ones or family members with mobility impairments, instead of spending money on material goods like shoes or candles, consider gracing them with a gift that money usually can’t buy.
Independence. Confidence. Better quality of life. Safety. Mobility.
Reasons Why a Stairlift Should Rise to the Top of Your Christmas List
1. The gifts of freedom, independence, and mobility are priceless.
It’s not very often that you can say that you gave someone the gift of freedom, independence, and mobility for the holidays.
No longer will you or your loved ones have to crawl up the stairs on your hands and knees, wait for a loved one or caregiver to help you navigate up or down the steep steps, or avoid staircases altogether.
With an in-home lift, you can go where you want whenever you want with ease, comfort, and safety. You will be able to travel freely throughout the entirety of your house without putting your health or safety at risk.
2. It is a gift that many people with mobility limitations might not buy themselves out of guilt or even think to invest in.
Oftentimes, people are afraid to ask for help out of fear of “burdening” the ones they love or because they believe they don’t deserve it or aren’t worth the trouble.
Here at Acorn Stairlifts, we know that simply isn’t true. We know how much our families mean to us, and we know they deserve more in life than money could ever buy.
This is one of the many reasons why stairlifts make such amazing gifts. They remind your loved ones that their health, safety, and happiness matter and that they deserve to live their lives to the fullest.
Let your loved ones unwrap their worth this year and allow them to discover how deserving and loved they truly are with a life-transforming stair lift.
3. Stairlifts provide everyone with peace of mind, from the user to their loved ones.
We all want the best for our loved ones, so naturally, we can’t help but worry about them and their safety.
A stairlift not only dissipates your fear of falling, but it also lowers you and your loved ones’ stress levels, as you no longer have to worry about enduring injuries from falling down the stairs or your ability to move quickly and safely around your house.
Never again will you have to wonder how you would escape your home in the event of an emergency, and your loved ones will never have to worry about your safety on slippery staircases. Even during a power outage, an Acorn stairlift is designed to run, thanks to the backup stair lift batteries.
A stairlift silences your stress and gives you and your loved ones peace of mind.
4. A stairlift allows users to enjoy full access to the home they love—from top to bottom, inside and out.
When you have impaired mobility, a home with multiple levels can feel like an endless maze. You’re constantly looking for new ways to access parts of your home, and you may never find a way to access some parts. This all changes with a stairlift.
A home lift for the elderly transforms a multiple-level home into what feels like a one-story home. Never again will you have to miss out on enjoying the parts of your home that weren’t easily accessible because of the intimidating staircases.
Acorn stairlifts come in a variety of different models, including outdoor stair lift chairs designed specifically for outdoor staircases.
This means that from playing the piano, to tending to your garden in the backyard, you will never have to miss out again on enjoying your favorite indoor or outdoor activities because of a staircase.
5. They help save money by keeping your loved ones in a warm, home setting rather than cold, clinical senior care facilities.
There’s no place like home, and Acorn knows this. From enjoying a meal at the dinner table with your loved ones to kicking up your feet to unwind with your favorite show, nothing beats the comfort and familiarity of being in your own home. Why move away from all of the memories you’ve made when you can make new ones in the same place?
It should come as no surprise that as people age, the majority of seniors would prefer to stay in the comfort of their own homes rather than move into a clinical senior care facility. At Acorn Stairlifts, we believe that people of all ages and abilities should be able to live their lives to the fullest, continuing to do what they love with the people they love in the homes they love.
Not only is moving consistently ranked as one of the most stressful events in life, but moving into a senior care facility is also hard on your wallet. From the cost of transporting your stuff to a new place to the actual cost of living, moving to a senior care facility can easily rack up a large bill. Staying in the home you know and love saves you from the stress of moving and saves you money in the long run.
Acorn Stairlifts provides you with a long-term solution for staying in the home you love with stairlifts for the elderly, disabled, and anyone who struggles with mobility issues. Our high-quality chairlifts are well worth the investment, helping you reach new heights for many years to come as you age safely and happily in place.
6. Lifts raise your quality of life— They are truly the gifts that keep on giving.
Stairlift installation helps a variety of demographics, whether it’s the elderly, people recovering from an injury, the disabled, or people living with chronic diseases. That is because Acorn stairlifts are safe and user-friendly for everyone.
Acorn Stairlifts is the first and only stairlift company in the world to have earned the Ease-of-Use Commendation from the Arthritis Foundation in all of its stairlift models. This award, given to us by a panel of arthritis experts, was earned through extensive testing with our simulation subjects being nonother than real people living with arthritis.
From opening the packaging of our product to taking a ride in our lift, the Arthritis Foundation determined that every step of the product testing was not only manageable for people with Arthritis, but was easy-to-use, even for people suffering from a severe form of the disease.
