Product Description
The RAYMEX® Lift Quattro is a portable personal lift with an elevating seat that descends to floor level and rises to 24″, stopping anywhere in between. It lets a fallen person get themselves back up without kneeling, crawling or waiting for help — and between falls it works as a sit-to-stand aid, a bending and reaching aid, a rehab trainer and a rollator you walk inside rather than behind. The Quattro is the current-generation model, with a motor that runs 34% quieter than the Standard. It carries 300 lbs, weighs 36 lbs and folds to 12.5″ wide.
The quiet matters more than it sounds. A lift used in a living room at two in the morning, or on a ward with other residents asleep, is used differently from one in a clinic. A third less motor noise is the difference between a device that draws attention every time it moves and one that simply does its job.
Everything else the Quattro does is shared with the Standard, and it is a genuinely unusual list. Most powered lifts do one thing — they move a person who cannot move themselves, usually with two staff and a sling. This one is designed to be operated by the person sitting on it, from five separate control points, with brakes that lock themselves the moment the seat moves.
It is supplied in Black, Blue and Red. All three are the same device at the same price; the colour is the frame.
Key Features
34% Quieter Motor The Quattro’s next-generation motor runs a third quieter than the Standard — the difference between a device that announces itself in a quiet house or a sleeping ward and one that does not.
Three Frame Colours Black, Blue and Red at the same price, so the device can look like furniture in a living room rather than like hospital equipment.
Independent Fall Recovery The user does not need to kneel or crawl. They scoot alongside the device, press a low-mounted button, and the seat comes down to floor level and lifts them back up — no caregiver, no waiting for EMS.
Seat Travels from Floor to 24″ The seat descends to floor level, rises to 24″, and stops anywhere in between, so it works as a floor lift, a sit-to-stand aid and a height-adjustable seat from one mechanism.
Walk Inside the Frame Fold the seat up toward the backrest and the user walks inside the frame rather than behind it. That keeps their centre of mass over their base of support and lets them reach a counter, sink or stove — which a conventional rollator cannot.
Five Control Points Buttons on both side panels and both handles, plus a caregiver switch. Side buttons sit low so nobody has to reach overhead, which matters with shoulder injury or limited range of motion.
Brakes Engage Automatically The electric parking brake locks the moment the seat moves and stays locked until the unlock button is pressed, so the device cannot slide out from under someone mid-lift.
Deliberately Slow 0.5″/Second Seat Faster speeds were tested and rejected as too aggressive for older adults. Half an inch per second is controlled enough to stay comfortable and predictable through a full floor-to-standing cycle.
Folds to 12.5″ Wide, 36 lbs Folds with a positive latch click down to 12.5″ across and 36 lbs, so it goes in a car boot and does not need a van or a hoist track.
Rehab Progression Built In Graduated markers on the frame let a user or therapist drop the seat 1″ at a time to increase sit-to-stand difficulty and measure strength gains over weeks.
One Device Instead of Four
Most homes managing mobility decline end up with a collection of single-purpose equipment: a rollator for walking, a sit-to-stand aid for the chair, something for bending and reaching, and a hoist or an emergency call for when someone goes down. Each one solves a slice of the problem, each one costs money, and each one takes up space.
The RAYMEX® Lift is designed to replace that collection. It walks like a rollator, lifts from the floor like a hoist, assists sit-to-stand like a powered standing aid, lowers the user for bending and reaching, and doubles as a rehab trainer with measurable progression. The manufacturer positions it as displacing three to four separate devices, and the specification supports that claim rather than stretching it.
The practical consequence is not just cost. It is that the user has one familiar device that is always to hand, instead of the right tool being in another room at the moment they need it.
What Happens After a Fall
Roughly one in four Canadians over 65 falls each year, and a meaningful share of those falls end with a long lie on the floor because nobody present can safely lift the person. The usual outcomes are a call to a family member who risks their own back, or a call to EMS — where lift-assist calls account for an estimated 10–15% of volume.
The RAYMEX® Lift is built around the observation that most older adults can get from lying to sitting; what they cannot do is get from sitting on the floor to standing. The device bridges exactly that gap. The user hip-hikes or scoots alongside it, presses a side button, the seat comes to floor level, and it carries them back up to a safe standing height. The manufacturer cites a patient up in under a minute.
Where a caregiver is present, the same sequence works as a one-person assist with no bending and no lifting — which is the point, since patient handling is the leading cause of injury and lost days among care staff.
Designed With Real Hands in Mind
A number of details on this device only make sense if you have watched an older adult use equipment. The paddle control works like an aircraft yoke — push forward to descend, pull back to rise — because a paddle you can push or pull with a whole hand is easier than a button for someone with arthritis or poor dexterity. The manufacturer obtained a regulatory exception to use it.
The battery indicator cuts the seat off at 10% rather than at zero, specifically so nobody is ever stranded halfway through a lift. Handle height sets at the break of the wrist to reduce shoulder strain and keep posture upright. The seat and handle surfaces are non-porous and take standard healthcare sanitizing wipes.
One honest caveat from the manufacturer’s own documentation: the turning radius is a little larger than most rollator walkers, because the frame geometry has to carry a 300 lb lift. In a very tight hallway that is worth measuring first.
Quattro or Standard?
The two models are mechanically the same lift. Same 300 lb capacity, same floor-to-24″ seat travel, same five control points, same automatic brakes, same 36 lb folding frame, same battery and the same 30-plus lifts per charge.
The Quattro adds next-generation motor technology that runs 34% quieter, and it is available in Black, Blue and Red. The Standard is Black only and uses the previous motor generation at a lower price.
Choose the Quattro if the lift will be used in a shared living space, overnight, in a facility with residents nearby, or if the user is noise-sensitive — and if colour matters. Choose the Standard if the device will be used in a private home during the day and the saving is worth more than the acoustics.

Best For
- Older adults living alone who can get from lying to sitting but cannot get up off the floor unaided
- Households where a fall currently means calling family or EMS for a lift-assist
- Anyone using a rollator who also struggles with standing from a chair, bending to a low shelf, or reaching a counter
- Home care and long-term care settings moving to no-lift policies, where a one-person assist with no bending reduces staff injury risk
- Rehab and physiotherapy programmes needing a measurable sit-to-stand progression the patient can continue at home
- Shared living spaces, overnight use and care facilities where a third less motor noise genuinely matters
Why Choose This Product
- Replaces three to four single-function devices — rollator, floor lift, sit-to-stand aid and rehab trainer — in one 36 lb frame
- Designed for the user to operate alone, which is what separates it from a hoist that needs two trained staff and a sling
- The quietest model in the range, in three frame colours, with Canadian regulatory listing and a manufacturer’s warranty
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the RAYMEX Lift Quattro and the Standard?
Mechanically they are the same lift — identical 300 lb capacity, floor-to-24″ seat travel, control layout, automatic brakes, 36 lb folding frame and battery performance. The Quattro uses next-generation motor technology that runs 34% quieter and comes in Black, Blue or Red. The Standard uses the previous motor generation, comes in Black only, and costs less. Choose the Quattro for shared spaces, overnight use or a care setting where noise carries; choose the Standard for daytime use in a private home.
How does someone get up off the floor with the RAYMEX Lift?
They do not need to kneel or crawl. The user gets from lying to sitting — which most older adults can do — then scoots or hip-hikes alongside the device. Buttons on the side panels are deliberately mounted low so there is no overhead reach. Pressing one brings the seat down to floor level and the brakes lock automatically. The user slides onto the seat, lowers the arms, and raises themselves using the paddle control until their hips are above their knees and their feet are flat on the floor, then stands using the handles. The manufacturer cites under a minute for the full cycle.
Can it really replace a rollator walker?
It does more than a rollator, with one trade-off. Fold the seat up toward the backrest and the user walks inside the frame rather than behind it, which keeps their centre of mass over their base of support and lets them get close enough to a counter, sink or stove to actually use it — something a conventional rollator prevents because the seat blocks the stride. The trade-off, stated in the manufacturer’s own documentation, is that the turning radius is somewhat larger than a standard rollator because the frame has to carry a 300 lb lift. Measure your tightest hallway or doorway before assuming it will replace a narrow indoor walker.
How long does the battery last, and what if it dies mid-lift?
A full charge gives 30-plus complete lifts at the full 300 lb working load, and more at lighter loads. A full recharge takes roughly three to four hours through a barrel connector on the side cover, and the device can be used while plugged in once it is above 11%. It cannot strand you: at 10% the brakes disengage and the seat stops moving, which is a deliberate design choice so that nobody is ever caught halfway through a lift. The battery indicator warns you well before that, showing a single lit segment between 11% and 25%.
Does it need a caregiver, or can it be used alone?
Both. It is designed first for independent use — that is the whole premise — and every control is reachable by the seated user from five separate points. Where a caregiver is involved, there is a dedicated caregiver switch, and the assist requires no bending and no lifting at all, which is why it suits facilities operating no-lift policies. It is a one-person assist where most comparable transfers need two.
How does it fold and will it fit in a car?
Lower the seat level with the fenders, rotate the arms up, release the brakes and fold the seat inward until you hear the folding latch click. Folded it is 12.5″ wide and the whole device weighs 36 lbs, so it goes in a car boot without a hoist, a ramp or a van conversion. The click is the confirmation the frame is locked and safe to lift — do not lift it before you hear it.
Is it easy to clean for a care setting?
Yes. The seat and handle materials are non-porous and the manufacturer confirms that standard healthcare sanitizing wipes can be used on all surfaces, which is what makes it viable between residents in a facility rather than a single-user home device only.
Summary
The RAYMEX® Lift Quattro is a 36 lb portable personal lift whose seat descends to floor level and rises to 24″, letting a fallen person get themselves up unaided while also serving as a sit-to-stand aid, bending aid, rehab trainer and walk-inside rollator. 300 lb capacity, folds to 12.5″, 30+ lifts per charge, with a motor 34% quieter than the Standard. Black, Blue or Red.
Important Notice: The RAYMEX® Lift is a mobility and transfer device and is not a substitute for professional medical advice or assessment. Have an occupational therapist or physiotherapist confirm it is appropriate for the user, and ensure both the user and any caregiver are trained on safe technique before use. Do not exceed the 300 lb (136 kg) weight capacity or the 6′8″ maximum user height. Confirm the brakes are engaged before transferring on or off the seat. Use on firm, level indoor surfaces; this device is not intended for stairs, escalators or uneven outdoor ground.
