What Makes the Flow X Stand Out?
The Flow X stairlift is a refined evolution of its predecessor, the Flow 2A, known for its flexibility and compact design. Here are just a few reasons why the Flow X has become one of the most sought-after stairlifts on the market:
✅ Designed for Very Narrow Staircases
Thanks to its patented ASL (Advanced Swivel and Levelling) technology, the seat can rotate while in motion, allowing the stairlift to be installed on staircases as narrow as 610mm (24 inches) — one of the tightest fits in the industry.
✅ Sleek and Discreet Design
The Flow X is a modern stairlift that doesn’t compromise on style. With luxurious upholstery options and a slim, space-saving rail, it blends beautifully into any home.
✅ Smooth and Safe Ride
The Flow X offers a whisper-quiet, comfortable ride with advanced safety features, such as automatic folding footrests, integrated armrest controls, and optional powered swivel functions for ease of exit.
✅ Made by Thyssenkrupp’s Trusted Subsidiary
Now manufactured by Access BDD, the Flow X carries the reliability and innovation you’d expect from the Thyssenkrupp brand — a company with a long history of pioneering engineering solutions.
Real-World Results: From Flow 2A to Flow X
We recently completed a challenging installation on a very narrow staircase using the Flow 2A — the Flow X’s predecessor. The results were outstanding, giving our customer safe, comfortable access to all floors without altering the staircase structure.
The Flow X takes this even further, offering improved ergonomics, enhanced ride comfort, and even better space optimisation — making it ideal for similar homes across the UK.
Budget-Friendly Options: Reconditioned Stairlifts Available
At UK Stairlifts, we also offer reconditioned Flow stairlifts, providing excellent savings without sacrificing safety or performance. Every reconditioned stairlift is thoroughly tested, serviced, and backed by warranty for your peace of mind.
