I don't know.

One website:

"A caregiver must be present for this type of transfer."
No! f'k you. f'k you again.
Independence means exactly that!

Another website:

The Bruno Chair Lift for stairs is expensive, but super strong.
I've tested this product.
It runs without a groan, even for my 240# fat ass.
Installers installed it correctly in the home. The first time.
No complaints after two years and counting.

My gawd man! I believe,
I am having a crisis........

I would honestly be afraid to run that thing. I'd be partial to display it for the world to see and bask in its magnificence.

That truly is a pieced of air cooled art
