This battery-powered sling lift carries 700 lbs., raises a person and opens its base at the press of a button.
A battery sling lift with a powered boom and a powered base. One hand control raises and lowers the person and opens the legs to 49.5", and it carries 700 lbs.
What stands out
The Medline MDS700EL is a fully powered sling lift for a heavier person, or for a home where the caregiver should not be pumping a hydraulic lift by hand. Both the boom and the base run from a four-button hand control. Two buttons raise and lower the person, and two open and close the legs of the base, so the caregiver can keep both hands near the person during the transfer. It carries 700 lbs. and weighs 184 lbs., so it is a large lift for a large room. The base legs sit 4.25" off the floor and spread from 29" to 49.5" across the outside. The battery pack lifts off the control box to charge, and Medline rates a full charge at about 80 to 100 lifts and lowers. If the hand control fails, a button on the control box lowers the person electrically, and a collar on the actuator lowers the person by hand if the power fails. The lift ships with its 6-point cradle and without a sling. Medline asks that only compatible slings be used on its lifts, so pick a Medline sling on this page, sized to the person and rated for their weight.
Straight talk
Is it right for you?
A good fit if you
- cannot stand and need a sling lift
- weigh up to 700 lbs.
- have a caregiver who should not pump a lift by hand
- have a room with space for a lift 54" long that opens to 49.5"
Look elsewhere if you
- can bear some weight and want a stand aid
- need a lift that folds or comes apart for a car
- have a small room where a base that opens to 49.5" will not fit
- need to move a person from room to room in the lift
