Invacare Painted Hydraulic Lift

Capacity is listed at 450 pounds. The painted steel frame itself weighs 68 pounds, which is relatively light for a floor lift in this class, and the unit comes apart so it can be moved or stored more easily. The lifting range runs from 20 inches up to 64 inches, which is enough to reach a person who is on the floor.

This model uses a padded six-point swivel bar. The listing describes 360-degree rotation of the person in the sling without the side-to-side sway that a rigid bar can produce. The six-point attachment is the interface for a compatible six-point sling; match the sling to the bar style and to the person's size before a transfer.

The base closes to 22 inches and opens to 42.3 inches, with a length of 46.7 inches and a height of 6.5 inches. Closing the legs narrows the footprint for a doorway or hallway; opening them gives a wider stance around a chair or wheelchair. It rolls on 5-inch wheels, and push handles are part of the frame.

Yes. The listing states that this Invacare hydraulic lift can raise a person from the floor. The boom travels from 20 inches at the low end to 64 inches at the high end, so the low point is what makes a floor pick-up possible. As with any floor lift, a compatible sling and a trained caregiver are required for that transfer.

This is a hydraulic model: a caregiver operates a pump to raise the boom, rather than a battery-powered actuator. It still offers a 450-pound capacity, a 20- to 64-inch range, and a six-point padded swivel bar on a steel frame that comes apart for transport. A powered lift is a different product; the choice is about the lifting mechanism, plus the capacity and dimensions you need.
