8 Things to Look for in Your Forever Home

April 4, 2023 by Arrow Lift

A man and woman embrace as they look at a home in the distance hidden behind a red for sale sign and a tree with fresh green buds.

If you’ve ever moved anywhere, you know the process can be labor-intensive and not always fun. Somewhere between house hunting, making offers, packing, and unboxing, you’ve likely uttered the phrase, “We’re never moving again!” sometime during the event. That’s why the thought of finding a forever home — a property that will see you through every stage of life so you really can never move again — can be quite an appealing prospect.

But what should you look for in a forever home? While it’s natural to focus on what you need right now, you’ll want to think long-term when looking for a location that will be your home base for years to come. To put you in that future-thinking mindset, we’ve created a list of must-have factors to look for in your forever home.

Top 10 Stairlifts in TV/Film vs. Real-Life Stairlift Reviews

March 15, 2023 by Arrow Lift

Stair lifts have enjoyed their 15 minutes of fame in film and television over the years. It’s exciting to see such an important mobility tool that brings utility to so many appear in pop culture. But, unfortunately, the exposure is a double-edged sword. On the one side, it’s great to show the general public how a stair chair lift can help someone get up and down the stairs; on the other side, many of the depictions of stair lifts play on negative stereotypes disrespectful toward people with disabilities. 

If it were up to us, Hollywood would always portray stair lifts more positively to show how they can help people in meaningful and life-changing ways — avoiding “cringe-worthy” scenes altogether. That said, it can be fun to see where stair lifts have shown up in pop culture. We’ve created a list of the top 10 stair lift appearances below, and even installed one of the stair lifts featured! 

Enjoy this look at stair lifts in movies and television. Then, we encourage you to consider how real-life stairway chairlifts help millions safely navigate the stairs. That’s why we’ve also included some of our favorite Arrow Lift stair lift reviews.
