Answering your most common questions about the RAYMEX® Lift

The RAYMEX® Lift is a new device designed to help people stay independent at home by supporting walking, transfers and safe recovery from falls.

Its ability to lower to floor level and raise a person to a seated height, while functioning as a walker and standing aid, makes it very different from traditional lifting cushions or emergency lifting chairs.

In this article, we answer the questions people ask most often, using verified information from the Felgains product page.

What is the RAYMEX® Lift?

The RAYMEX® Lift is a 3-in-1 lifting, walking and transfer aid designed to help people continue doing the things they love in their own home. It features an elevating seat that lowers to the floor and raises up to 24 inches, making it ready to lift an uninjured person safely from the floor. 

It can also double as a walker or stand aid, helping with daily activities such as moving around the home or practising standing. 

Who is the RAYMEX® Lift designed for?

The RAYMEX® Lift is designed for:

  • People who may fall and want a safe, reliable way to get up again
  • Older adults who want to keep their independence
  • Carers who need to reduce heavy manual handling
  • Home users and community care teams who want a multifunctional device

It combines a walker, lifting chair, stand aid and lowering device into one piece of equipment, providing support for an active and independent lifestyle.

Can the RAYMEX® Lift be used independently?

Yes. One of its most important benefits is that it can be operated completely independently, which is not the case with many other fall recovery devices. [felgains.com]

To recover from a fall, the user transfers themselves onto the seat, usually by shuffling backwards, then activates the lift using the simple controls. This means many older adults can lift themselves without waiting for a family member or carer.

What are the key features?

Key features of the RAYMEX Lift include:

  • 3-in-1 walking, transfer and lifting aid 
  • Independent fall recovery for many users
  • High battery capacity, delivering about 33 lifts per charge
  • No assembly required, so it arrives ready to use 
  • Portable and lightweight, weighing only 16 kg
  • Max user weight of 136 kg, suitable for most adults 

How comfortable and supportive is it?

The RAYMEX® Lift is designed for comfort and dignity. Because the user transfers naturally onto the seat and does not need slings or straps, many people find it more comfortable than traditional lifting equipment. It raises and lowers smoothly, supporting the user at every stage.

Does it help with more than fall recovery?

Yes. The RAYMEX® Lift is designed to help with daily activities, rehabilitation and confidence building. The adjustable handles and controlled lifting motion allow users to practise standing, move short distances and use the device for stability during everyday tasks. 

Can it reduce ambulance callouts?

Yes, in many cases. If a person has fallen but is not injured, the RAYMEX® Lift allows safe recovery from the floor without calling emergency services. This helps reduce long waits and keeps ambulances free for urgent cases. This is one of the key reasons care homes and residential facilities are implementing the device.

How much does the RAYMEX® Lift cost?

The RAYMEX® Lift is available for £3997 excluding VAT. It is also eligible for VAT relief for qualifying customers. Delivery is expected from early March 2026.
