GRAVIS FLP600 BARIATRIC ELECTRIC PATIENT LIFT 600 LB CAPACITY OVERVIEW If you're on this page, chances are you've either outgrown a smaller patient lift, been told a 450 or 500 lb lift isn't rated for your loved one, or you're caring for someone whose weight has made standard equipment feel unsafe. That's a hard place to be you're already doing the work of caring for someone heavier than most equipment is built for, and now you're being asked to make a major purchase decision at the same time. Here's the direct version the Gravis FLP600 was built for exactly this situation. Not "kind of works for bariatric" rated for a genuine 600 lb Safe Working Load, built with a reinforced frame, wider base, and the same premium electronics you'd find in hospital equipment. It's what a nurse or facility administrator would pick if the same choice landed on their desk. What you're really getting the ability to get your loved one out of bed without dread, to help them to the commode without asking a neighbor for help, and to safely lift them off the floor if they end up down there. All from a lift that carries Drive Medical's Lifetime Limited frame warranty and 5 years on electronics the longest coverage in this category. Not a compromise, not a stretch. The right lift for the job. If your patient is under 500 lb and you don't need this much capacity, our Levantar FLP500 500 lb capacity is a better fit and costs less. If you need a foldable/portable lift, look at our Invacare I-Lift 450. Call 713 695-4939 and we'll help you decide. You're Viewing Gravis FLP600 600 lb Bariatric Capacity, Lifetime Frame Warranty Model FLP600 Electric Drive Medical Bariatric WHO IT'S FOR This lift really shines for Bariatric patients up to 600 lb Long-term care facilities Nursing homes & rehab centers Home caregivers of heavier loved ones Fall recovery in bariatric-care households Facilities wanting one lift that handles everyone AT A GLANCE The basicssizing at a glance Safe Working Load Lift Range Base Closed / Open Ground Clearance Warranty Frame 600 lbhighest bariatric 27" 76"33" 76" boom lift 32" / 46"needs wider than 30" door 2. 9"low profile for bariatric class Lifetime Limited 5 yr electronics Important measure your doorways before ordering The FLP600's base is 32" wide closed 46" open. That's wider than a standard 30" interior doorway typical bedroom, bathroom, and hallway doors will not accommodate this lift. You'll need 36" ADA-compliant doorways or wider common in main entries, some remodeled homes, and most healthcare facilities. This is a real trade-off for the bariatric capacity the wider base is what allows the lift to safely handle 600 lb. Before ordering, walk your home and measure every doorway the lift needs to pass through. If a bedroom doorway is only 30", the lift can't safely enter that room, and the FLP500 with a 27. 6" closed base or the I-Lift 450 27. 8" closed may be a better fit. Call 713 695-4939 to talk through your specific home before ordering. Slings sold separately Like most bariatric lifts, the FLP600 does not include a sling in the box you'll need to add a bariatric-rated sling typically $180$320 for a 600 lb-rated full-body sling. Standard slings are not rated for bariatric patient weight and should NOT be substituted. See the Accessories section below or call us at 713 695-4939 and we'll help you pick a bariatric-rated sling that matches this lift. BUILT FOR THE PATIENTS OTHER LIFTS CAN'T SAFELY HANDLE Caring for someone over 500 lb is a category of caregiving that most families and even many facilities aren't prepared for. Standard patient lifts top out at 400500 lb. Most home care equipment is built with an assumption about patient size that doesn't include bariatric patients. The result is that the caregiver usually a family member ends up trying to move a heavy loved one with equipment that's technically maxed out at their weight, or worse, without equipment at all. That's dangerous for the patient falls, dropped transfers and dangerous for the caregiver back injuries, chronic pain, and too often injuries that end the caregiver's ability to keep providing care. The Gravis FLP600 exists to solve that specific problem. The 600 lb Safe Working Load gives real headroom for patients in the 450600 lb range. The reinforced frame with wider base stays stable during transfers of very heavy patients no tipping, no wobble. The powered lifting motor handles the actual weight, so one caregiver can safely operate the lift instead of needing two people. The redundant manual controls mean the lift works even during power outages critical for facilities and home caregivers alike. The obstruction sensor prevents accidents. The LCD safety module keeps you informed. And the Lifetime Limited frame warranty means Drive Medical stands behind this equipment for years which matters when you're spending real money on equipment you'll rely on daily. A great fit for You're caring for a loved one over 500 lb and your current lift or the lift you were considering doesn't have enough capacity You've had a close call with equipment failing at capacity lift straining, base tipping, or sling manufacturer warnings about weight You're running a long-term care facility, nursing home, or rehab center and need one lift that handles every patient, not multiple lifts for different weight ranges Your loved one has been discharged from a hospital or rehab facility that used a bariatric lift, and you need equivalent capability at home You want equipment with the longest possible warranty coverage because replacing a bariatric lift is a major expense Your home has ADA-compliant doorways 36" or wider or you're okay with the lift staying in one or two rooms KEY FEATURES What you'll noticein daily use FeatureWhat it really means for you 600 lb Safe Working LoadHighest bariatric capacity availableGenuine 600 lb rated capacity for bariatric patients. Real margin above your loved one's weight for the sling, clothing, and normal movement during a transfer. This is a serious bariatric lift, not a stretched-thin "up to 600" number. Reinforced frame wider baseStability at high patient weightsThe 32" closed / 46" open base isn't there to look tough it's there because a wider stance is what keeps the lift stable when a 550600 lb patient is suspended. Narrow bases tip wide bases don't. 27" to 76" total lift rangeBoom lifts from 33" to 76"Lifts patients from low floor positions to standard-height beds, exam tables, and chairs.

    GRAVIS FLP600 BARIATRIC ELECTRIC PATIENT LIFT — 600 LB CAPACITY OVERVIEW

    If you're on this page, chances are you've either outgrown a smaller patient lift, been told a 450 or 500 lb lift isn't rated for your loved one, or you're caring for someone whose weight has made standard equipment feel unsafe. That's a hard place to be — you're already doing the work of caring for someone heavier than most equipment is built for, and now you're being asked to make a major purchase decision at the same time.

    Here's the direct version: the Gravis FLP600 was built for exactly this situation. Not "kind of works for bariatric" — rated for a genuine 600 lb Safe Working Load, built with a reinforced frame, wider base, and the same premium electronics you'd find in hospital equipment. It's what a nurse or facility administrator would pick if the same choice landed on their desk.

    What you're really getting: the ability to get your loved one out of bed without dread, to help them to the commode without asking a neighbor for help, and to safely lift them off the floor if they end up down there. All from a lift that carries Drive Medical's Lifetime Limited frame warranty and 5 years on electronics — the longest coverage in this category. Not a compromise, not a stretch. The right lift for the job.

    If your patient is under 500 lb and you don't need this much capacity, our Levantar FLP500 (500 lb capacity) is a better fit and costs less. If you need a foldable/portable lift, look at our Invacare I-Lift 450. Call (713) 695-4939 and we'll help you decide.

    ⚠️ Important: measure your doorways before ordering The FLP600's base is 32" wide closed (46" open). That's wider than a standard 30" interior doorway — typical bedroom, bathroom, and hallway doors will not accommodate this lift. You'll need 36" ADA-compliant doorways or wider (common in main entries, some remodeled homes, and most healthcare facilities). This is a real trade-off for the bariatric capacity — the wider base is what allows the lift to safely handle 600 lb. Before ordering, walk your home and measure every doorway the lift needs to pass through. If a bedroom doorway is only 30", the lift can't safely enter that room, and the FLP500 (with a 27.6" closed base) or the I-Lift 450 (27.8" closed) may be a better fit. Call (713) 695-4939 to talk through your specific home before ordering.
    ⚠️ Slings sold separately Like most bariatric lifts, the FLP600 does not include a sling in the box — you'll need to add a bariatric-rated sling (typically ~$180–$320 for a 600 lb-rated full-body sling). Standard slings are not rated for bariatric patient weight and should NOT be substituted.

    Caring for someone over 500 lb is a category of caregiving that most families and even many facilities aren't prepared for. Standard patient lifts top out at 400–500 lb. Most home care equipment is built with an assumption about patient size that doesn't include bariatric patients. The result is that the caregiver — usually a family member — ends up trying to move a heavy loved one with equipment that's technically maxed out at their weight, or worse, without equipment at all. That's dangerous for the patient (falls, dropped transfers) and dangerous for the caregiver (back injuries, chronic pain, and — too often — injuries that end the caregiver's ability to keep providing care).

    The Gravis FLP600 exists to solve that specific problem. The 600 lb Safe Working Load gives real headroom for patients in the 450–600 lb range. The reinforced frame with wider base stays stable during transfers of very heavy patients — no tipping, no wobble. The powered lifting motor handles the actual weight, so one caregiver can safely operate the lift instead of needing two people. The redundant manual controls mean the lift works even during power outages — critical for facilities and home caregivers alike. The obstruction sensor prevents accidents. The LCD safety module keeps you informed. And the Lifetime Limited frame warranty means Drive Medical stands behind this equipment for years — which matters when you're spending real money on equipment you'll rely on daily.

    A great fit for:
    • You're caring for a loved one over 500 lb and your current lift (or the lift you were considering) doesn't have enough capacity
    • You've had a close call with equipment failing at capacity — lift straining, base tipping, or sling manufacturer warnings about weight
    • You're running a long-term care facility, nursing home, or rehab center and need one lift that handles every patient, not multiple lifts for different weight ranges
    • Your loved one has been discharged from a hospital or rehab facility that used a bariatric lift, and you need equivalent capability at home
    • You want equipment with the longest possible warranty coverage because replacing a bariatric lift is a major expense
    • Your home has ADA-compliant doorways (36" or wider) — or you're okay with the lift staying in one or two rooms
    QUESTIONS? WE'RE HERE TO HELP
    Not sure if you need the FLP600 or if the FLP500 (500 lb) is enough? Call us at (713) 695-4939. Bariatric lift selection is genuinely nuanced — patient weight, doorway widths, room layouts, sling type, and caregiver capabilities all matter. We've helped many families and facilities pick the right bariatric lift. Getting this decision right the first time saves real money and — more importantly — avoids injuries.

    KEY FEATURES
    What you'll notice
    (in daily use)
    FeatureWhat it really means for you
    💪
    600 lb Safe Working Load
    Highest bariatric capacity available
    Genuine 600 lb rated capacity for bariatric patients. Real margin above your loved one's weight for the sling, clothing, and normal movement during a transfer. This is a serious bariatric lift, not a stretched-thin "up to 600" number.
    🏗️
    Reinforced frame + wider base
    Stability at high patient weights
    The 32" closed / 46" open base isn't there to look tough — it's there because a wider stance is what keeps the lift stable when a 550–600 lb patient is suspended. Narrow bases tip; wide bases don't.
    🔽
    27" to 76" total lift range
    Boom lifts from 33" to 76"
    Lifts patients from low floor positions to standard-height beds, exam tables, and chairs. The extended range handles most transfer situations in a home or facility setting.
    📏
    2.9" ground clearance
    Low profile for a bariatric lift
    Most bariatric lifts have 4–6" base clearance. The FLP600's 2.9" fits under more furniture than typical — including many standard hospital beds and adjustable beds. Not as low as the FLP500's 2.3", but very good for this capacity class.
    Powered base + electric lift motor
    One-caregiver operation
    Powered base opening (adjust via pendant) and electric boom lifting mean minimal caregiver effort even for very heavy patients. One caregiver can safely operate the lift where manual bariatric transfers would require 2–3 people.
    🔄
    Six-point cradle with spring clips
    Aluminum construction, wide sling attachment
    The 6-point cradle spreads bariatric patient weight across six attachment points — more comfortable, more secure. Aluminum spring clips prevent sling detachment during rotation. Works with any 2/4/6-point bariatric-rated sling.
    🛠️
    Redundant manual + powered controls
    Works during power outages
    If the pendant fails or power runs out mid-transfer, mechanical override controls let you safely lower even a heavy patient. Critical for bariatric care where a manual rescue is not an option.
    📊
    LCD safety control module
    Real-time battery, overload, service alerts
    Clear digital display shows current battery level, overload warnings, and maintenance reminders. Important with bariatric use where the lift is worked harder and battery drain is faster than standard lifts.
    🛑
    Obstruction sensor
    Stops boom on contact
    Automatic sensor stops the boom's downward movement if it contacts an obstacle. Prevents accidents in tight bariatric-care spaces where furniture and equipment are often packed close together.
    🔋
    24V DC battery + off-board charger
    External charging station included
    Rechargeable battery pack with external charger stand. Charge on or off the lift — a spare battery kept on the external charger means zero downtime, which matters when bariatric use drains batteries faster.
    🛞
    3" front / 5" locking rear casters
    Oversized rear wheels for bariatric loads
    Oversized 5" rear casters roll smoothly across carpet, tile, and hardwood even when loaded with a bariatric patient. Rear casters lock securely to prevent unwanted movement during transfers — doubly important with heavier patients.
    🏆
    Lifetime frame + 5yr electronics warranty
    Best-in-class coverage for bariatric
    Drive Medical stands behind this lift with lifetime frame coverage and 5 years on electronics — significantly longer than most bariatric-lift competitors (typically 3 years frame / 1 year electronics). Reflects the build quality needed for daily bariatric use.
    WHY WE RECOMMEND IT
    What makes the FLP600 the right pick
    (at a glance)
    Real 600 lb bariatric capacity, not marketing:The 600 lb Safe Working Load is rated, tested, and certified — not "up to." This is a legitimate bariatric lift with a reinforced frame and wider base built specifically to handle heavy patients safely.
    Solves the equipment gap for bariatric caregivers:Most patient lifts top out at 450–500 lb. Bariatric caregivers often end up with unsafe workarounds because the right equipment isn't available or feels too expensive. The FLP600 is the right equipment.
    Lifetime frame warranty is exceptional in bariatric:Bariatric lifts get worked harder than standard lifts — the warranty needs to reflect that. Drive Medical's Lifetime Limited on the frame + 5 years on electronics is the longest coverage in this class.
    Redundant safety systems built for bariatric reality:Backup manual controls (critical when you can't manually lower a bariatric patient), LCD alerts, obstruction sensor, low-battery warnings, overload protection. Everything you'd expect from hospital-grade equipment.
    Wide base = stability during heavy transfers:The 46" open base is what allows the lift to safely handle 600 lb without tipping. It's the trade-off for bariatric capacity — wider base means the lift needs wider doorways, but also means the lift is genuinely safe.
    Priced significantly below hospital-grade bariatric lifts:Comparable 600 lb-capacity lifts from hospital-equipment brands run $5,000–$8,000+. The FLP600 delivers the same functional capacity at a fraction of that price.
    Compatible with a range of bariatric slings:Full-body bariatric slings, divided-leg bariatric slings, toileting bariatric slings — pick the right one for each transfer situation. All available separately — call us for the right match.

    DELIVERY OPTIONS
    White Glove or in-store pickup
    (strongly recommended for bariatric lifts)
    White Glove Delivery Service (Strongly Recommended):
    Our delivery technicians will unpack, assemble any final components, place the lift in your room of choice (1st floor only), install the batteries, demo base opening, sling attachment, and safe bariatric transfer techniques, and remove all packaging materials. At 132 lb the FLP600 is heavy — professional setup is worth it, especially for bariatric-care households where the caregiver's back needs to be protected from day one.
    Doorway measurement before delivery IMPORTANT: Before your delivery date, walk your home and measure every doorway the lift needs to pass through. The FLP600's closed base is 32" — it will not fit through standard 30" interior doorways. Common 32" doorways may or may not accommodate the lift depending on exact clear opening. If you're unsure, call us at (713) 695-4939 with your measurements before ordering.
    Local pickup available In-store pickup is available if you're local to Houston. The lift needs a pickup truck bed, SUV cargo area, or van for transport (it doesn't fold). Call (713) 695-4939 to confirm availability and coordinate pickup.
    Showroom availability To see the FLP600 or other hoyer patient lifts currently in our showroom, please contact our customer service team at (713) 695-4939 during regular business hours.

    FAQs
    Common questions before ordering
    (fit · doorways · slings · coverage)
    Do I really need a 600 lb-capacity lift, or would a 500 lb be enough?
    A helpful rule: pick a lift with a Safe Working Load at least 50–100 lb above the patient's current weight. That leaves margin for the sling (which adds 3–10 lb), clothing, blankets, normal movement during a lift, and any weight gain. So:

    Patient up to 400 lbInvacare I-Lift 450 (foldable + sling included)
    Patient 400–450 lbLevantar FLP500 (500 lb capacity, low 2.3" clearance, lower price)
    Patient 450–550 lbGravis FLP600 (this lift) — the bariatric capacity gives real safety margin
    Patient over 550 lb → you may need a hospital-grade lift with higher SWL — call us and we'll help find options

    Also — if the patient's weight is likely to increase, size up. Replacing a maxed-out lift a year later is expensive.
    Will the FLP600 fit through my doorways?
    This is the most important question to answer before ordering. The FLP600's closed base is 32" wide. Standard doorway sizes and what they mean:

    28" doorway (some bathrooms) → Will NOT fit
    30" doorway (most standard interior doors) → Will NOT fit (clear opening is usually 28–29" once door and frame are accounted for)
    32" doorwayMay or may not fit — measure the actual clear opening
    36" ADA-compliant doorwayFits comfortably (typical main entries, some remodeled homes, most healthcare facilities)

    Before ordering, walk your home and measure every doorway the lift needs to pass through. If a bedroom door is only 30", the FLP600 can't safely enter that room. Consider the Levantar FLP500 (27.6" closed) or Invacare I-Lift 450 (27.8" closed) if doorways are tight. Call (713) 695-4939 with your measurements before ordering — we'll help you decide.
    Why does bariatric mean it needs a wider base?
    Physics. When you're lifting a heavy patient in the air, the whole rig (lift + patient + sling) has a much higher center of gravity than a normal transfer. A narrow base means the lift can tip if the patient shifts weight or if the base rolls onto an uneven surface. The FLP600's wider 32" closed / 46" open base keeps the center of gravity comfortably within the wheelbase even at maximum capacity. Narrower bases would technically "work" up to a certain weight, but they'd get less safe as patient weight increased. The trade-off: the wider base needs wider doorways to pass through. This is why bariatric lifts are designed for facilities and homes with ADA-compliant doorways — the equipment itself has to be sized up.
    Why do I need a bariatric-rated sling? Can I use a standard one?
    No — do not use a standard sling for a bariatric patient. Standard slings are typically rated for 400–500 lb. Using them with a heavier patient risks catastrophic sling failure during a lift, which is dangerous for the patient and for the caregiver trying to catch them. Bariatric-rated slings are built with reinforced stitching, heavier fabric, and wider straps specifically to handle 500–800 lb loads safely. The extra cost (typically ~$50–100 more than standard slings) is genuinely worth it. Call (713) 695-4939 and we'll help you pick a bariatric sling in the right size and style for the patient.
    Can this lift really pick up a patient from the floor after a fall?
    Yes — the boom lift range starts at 33" which is low enough to position a bariatric sling under a patient on the floor (with practice). Fall recovery is one of the most important reasons bariatric caregivers get a lift in the first place — manually lifting a fallen bariatric patient is essentially impossible for one person and dangerous even for two or three. That said, floor recovery with a bariatric patient takes practice. Before an emergency, run through the sequence with the patient on a low bed at least a few times so you know the sling positioning and lift operation cold. Our White Glove Delivery demo covers this.
    How long does the battery last with a bariatric patient?
    Battery life for bariatric use is shorter than standard use — heavier patients draw more motor current per lift. Typical daily-use estimate is 30–80 bariatric lifts per charge depending on the specific transfers and battery pack size. The LCD control module shows current battery level so you can plan. The off-board charger stand lets you keep a spare battery always charging, which is essential for facilities and heavily-used home settings — zero downtime waiting for a battery. Two battery pack sizes are available (7.9 lb 5.0A or 4.9 lb 2.9A) — the larger battery gives longer runtime per charge.
    Is a 600 lb bariatric lift covered by Medicare or insurance?
    Yes, bariatric patient lifts are typically covered as durable medical equipment. This lift falls under HCPCS code E0639 (Patient lift, moveable from room to room with disassembly and reassembly, includes all components/accessories) for bariatric electric lifts — verify with your specific carrier as coding can vary. Medicare Part B covers patient lifts with a doctor's prescription documenting medical necessity, typically requiring documentation of the patient's weight, mobility status, and why bariatric-capacity equipment is required. Medicaid and most private insurers cover bariatric lifts with similar documentation. Bariatric lifts generally have higher approval rates than standard lifts because the medical necessity is easier to establish when a standard lift can't safely handle the patient's weight. Call us at (713) 695-4939 and we'll walk through what your specific plan requires.
    What does the Lifetime Limited warranty actually cover?
    The Lifetime Limited warranty covers the frame and mast (structural components) for as long as the original purchaser owns the lift — covering manufacturing defects and premature failure under normal bariatric use. The 5-year electronics warranty covers the motor, pendant, LCD module, and control systems. The 1-year battery warranty covers the battery pack. Warranty excludes damage from exceeding the 600 lb Safe Working Load, misuse, water damage from improper cleaning, and normal wear items (casters, cables). This is one of the best warranty packages available for bariatric lifts — most competitors offer 3 years frame / 1 year electronics.
    Do I need special training for a bariatric lift?
    Basic operation is the same as any electric lift (pendant with up/down/base-open, sling attaches to the 6-point cradle). But bariatric transfers do require some additional considerations: proper sling sizing (bariatric slings come in multiple sizes — wrong size can be uncomfortable or unsafe), positioning technique (positioning a sling under a bariatric patient takes practice), and caregiver ergonomics (even with the lift doing the work, caregiver body mechanics still matter). We strongly recommend at least one supervised transfer with an experienced bariatric caregiver, home health nurse, or physical therapist before doing solo transfers. Our White Glove Delivery service includes a demo of basic operation and bariatric-specific technique.
    Can I rent this lift instead of buying?
    Bariatric lift rental may be available for short-term or trial situations — call (713) 695-4939 and we'll let you know current availability. Renting can make sense if: the patient's condition may be temporary (post-surgical recovery, rehab), you want to try the lift before committing to purchase, or your insurance approval takes longer than the patient's immediate need. That said, most bariatric caregiving situations are long-term — and rental costs add up quickly. If you're going to use the lift for 6+ months, purchasing is usually the smarter financial choice, especially with the Lifetime frame warranty protecting your investment.
    Ready to talk through the details?
    Call (713) 695-4939. Bariatric lift selection is one of those decisions where a 15-minute phone conversation upfront saves months of regret. We'll walk through patient weight, home layout, doorway sizes, sling needs, and delivery options — no rush, no pressure.

    FAQs
    Common questions before ordering
    (fit · doorways · slings · coverage)
    Do I really need a 600 lb-capacity lift, or would a 500 lb be enough?
    A helpful rule: pick a lift with a Safe Working Load at least 50–100 lb above the patient's current weight. That leaves margin for the sling (which adds 3–10 lb), clothing, blankets, normal movement during a lift, and any weight gain. So:

    Patient up to 400 lbInvacare I-Lift 450 (foldable + sling included)
    Patient 400–450 lbLevantar FLP500 (500 lb capacity, low 2.3" clearance, lower price)
    Patient 450–550 lbGravis FLP600 (this lift) — the bariatric capacity gives real safety margin
    Patient over 550 lb → you may need a hospital-grade lift with higher SWL — call us and we'll help find options

    Also — if the patient's weight is likely to increase, size up. Replacing a maxed-out lift a year later is expensive.
    Will the FLP600 fit through my doorways?
    This is the most important question to answer before ordering. The FLP600's closed base is 32" wide. Standard doorway sizes and what they mean:

    28" doorway (some bathrooms) → Will NOT fit
    30" doorway (most standard interior doors) → Will NOT fit (clear opening is usually 28–29" once door and frame are accounted for)
    32" doorwayMay or may not fit — measure the actual clear opening
    36" ADA-compliant doorwayFits comfortably (typical main entries, some remodeled homes, most healthcare facilities)

    Before ordering, walk your home and measure every doorway the lift needs to pass through. If a bedroom door is only 30", the FLP600 can't safely enter that room. Consider the Levantar FLP500 (27.6" closed) or Invacare I-Lift 450 (27.8" closed) if doorways are tight. Call (713) 695-4939 with your measurements before ordering — we'll help you decide.
    Why does bariatric mean it needs a wider base?
    Physics. When you're lifting a heavy patient in the air, the whole rig (lift + patient + sling) has a much higher center of gravity than a normal transfer. A narrow base means the lift can tip if the patient shifts weight or if the base rolls onto an uneven surface. The FLP600's wider 32" closed / 46" open base keeps the center of gravity comfortably within the wheelbase even at maximum capacity. Narrower bases would technically "work" up to a certain weight, but they'd get less safe as patient weight increased. The trade-off: the wider base needs wider doorways to pass through. This is why bariatric lifts are designed for facilities and homes with ADA-compliant doorways — the equipment itself has to be sized up.
    Why do I need a bariatric-rated sling? Can I use a standard one?
    No — do not use a standard sling for a bariatric patient. Standard slings are typically rated for 400–500 lb. Using them with a heavier patient risks catastrophic sling failure during a lift, which is dangerous for the patient and for the caregiver trying to catch them. Bariatric-rated slings are built with reinforced stitching, heavier fabric, and wider straps specifically to handle 500–800 lb loads safely. The extra cost (typically ~$50–100 more than standard slings) is genuinely worth it. Call (713) 695-4939 and we'll help you pick a bariatric sling in the right size and style for the patient.
    Can this lift really pick up a patient from the floor after a fall?
    Yes — the boom lift range starts at 33" which is low enough to position a bariatric sling under a patient on the floor (with practice). Fall recovery is one of the most important reasons bariatric caregivers get a lift in the first place — manually lifting a fallen bariatric patient is essentially impossible for one person and dangerous even for two or three. That said, floor recovery with a bariatric patient takes practice. Before an emergency, run through the sequence with the patient on a low bed at least a few times so you know the sling positioning and lift operation cold. Our White Glove Delivery demo covers this.
    How long does the battery last with a bariatric patient?
    Battery life for bariatric use is shorter than standard use — heavier patients draw more motor current per lift. Typical daily-use estimate is 30–80 bariatric lifts per charge depending on the specific transfers and battery pack size. The LCD control module shows current battery level so you can plan. The off-board charger stand lets you keep a spare battery always charging, which is essential for facilities and heavily-used home settings — zero downtime waiting for a battery. Two battery pack sizes are available (7.9 lb 5.0A or 4.9 lb 2.9A) — the larger battery gives longer runtime per charge.
    Is a 600 lb bariatric lift covered by Medicare or insurance?
    Yes, bariatric patient lifts are typically covered as durable medical equipment. This lift falls under HCPCS code E0639 (Patient lift, moveable from room to room with disassembly and reassembly, includes all components/accessories) for bariatric electric lifts — verify with your specific carrier as coding can vary. Medicare Part B covers patient lifts with a doctor's prescription documenting medical necessity, typically requiring documentation of the patient's weight, mobility status, and why bariatric-capacity equipment is required. Medicaid and most private insurers cover bariatric lifts with similar documentation. Bariatric lifts generally have higher approval rates than standard lifts because the medical necessity is easier to establish when a standard lift can't safely handle the patient's weight. Call us at (713) 695-4939 and we'll walk through what your specific plan requires.
    What does the Lifetime Limited warranty actually cover?
    The Lifetime Limited warranty covers the frame and mast (structural components) for as long as the original purchaser owns the lift — covering manufacturing defects and premature failure under normal bariatric use. The 5-year electronics warranty covers the motor, pendant, LCD module, and control systems. The 1-year battery warranty covers the battery pack. Warranty excludes damage from exceeding the 600 lb Safe Working Load, misuse, water damage from improper cleaning, and normal wear items (casters, cables). This is one of the best warranty packages available for bariatric lifts — most competitors offer 3 years frame / 1 year electronics.
    Do I need special training for a bariatric lift?
    Basic operation is the same as any electric lift (pendant with up/down/base-open, sling attaches to the 6-point cradle). But bariatric transfers do require some additional considerations: proper sling sizing (bariatric slings come in multiple sizes — wrong size can be uncomfortable or unsafe), positioning technique (positioning a sling under a bariatric patient takes practice), and caregiver ergonomics (even with the lift doing the work, caregiver body mechanics still matter). We strongly recommend at least one supervised transfer with an experienced bariatric caregiver, home health nurse, or physical therapist before doing solo transfers. Our White Glove Delivery service includes a demo of basic operation and bariatric-specific technique.
    Can I rent this lift instead of buying?
    Bariatric lift rental may be available for short-term or trial situations — call (713) 695-4939 and we'll let you know current availability. Renting can make sense if: the patient's condition may be temporary (post-surgical recovery, rehab), you want to try the lift before committing to purchase, or your insurance approval takes longer than the patient's immediate need. That said, most bariatric caregiving situations are long-term — and rental costs add up quickly. If you're going to use the lift for 6+ months, purchasing is usually the smarter financial choice, especially with the Lifetime frame warranty protecting your investment.
