LANDING JULY 2026 – PREORDER NOW – ONLY 2 UNITS LEFT
The Foldable Electric Patient Lift Chair – Sling Type is designed to support caregivers when transferring individuals with reduced mobility from one position to another. With a 120 kg weight capacity, durable powder-coated Q235 steel frame, rechargeable battery, joystick control, and one-button lifting function, this unit provides a practical and user-friendly transfer solution for home care, frail care, disability care, and assisted living environments.
The main difference between this model and the XFL-QX-YW02 is the foldable frame design. The XFL-QX-YW07 can be folded up for easier storage or transport, making it especially useful where the unit needs to be moved between locations or packed into the boot of a car.
Like the YW02, this model uses a rechargeable battery-powered lifting system. Instead of manually operating a hydraulic pump, the caregiver can raise or lower the user using the joystick control and one-button lift function. This makes transfers easier, especially where regular lifting is required or where the caregiver needs a more convenient lifting method.
Once the battery is fully recharged, the chair can be operated for approximately 273 lifting cycles, which is around 1 month of use, depending on transfer frequency and usage conditions.
As a sling-type patient lift, this unit is especially useful where fixed-seat transfer chairs may be limited. The user is lifted in a sling, positioned over the wheelchair, armchair, toilet, bed, or suitable vehicle seat, and then lowered into place. Once the user is seated, the sling can be detached and the lift moved away.
This makes the foldable electric sling-type model particularly useful for transfers into areas where a fixed seat may not be able to open or close properly, such as cars, wheelchairs with armrests, or chairs with obstructing side frames.
Why Choose the Foldable Electric Sling-Type Patient Lift?
The foldable electric sling-type design combines three major advantages: powered lifting, flexible sling-based positioning, and transport-friendly storage.
The electric lifting function reduces the need for manual pumping, helping caregivers perform transfers with less physical effort. The joystick control allows the caregiver to raise and lower the patient more conveniently, while the sling design allows the patient to be positioned into tighter or more obstructed transfer spaces.
The foldable frame makes this model more practical where portability is important. It can be folded for storage or transport, making it easier to move the unit between rooms, care environments, or off-site locations.
This makes it a suitable option when transferring a person into:
- A wheelchair
- An armchair
- A toilet
- A bed
- A suitable vehicle seat
- Other seated care positions where safe access is available
Key Features
Foldable Frame for Transport and Storage
The foldable frame allows the unit to be folded up when not in use or when it needs to be transported. This makes it more convenient for storage and especially useful where the lift may need to be placed into the boot of a car.
Electric One-Button Lift Function
The electric lifting system allows the caregiver to raise and lower the user using a joystick control. This offers easier operation compared with a manual hydraulic system and is particularly helpful where repeated transfers are required.
Rechargeable Battery Operation
The rechargeable battery allows the unit to operate without needing to be plugged in during every transfer. Once fully recharged, the chair can be operated for approximately 273 times, which is around 1 month of use, depending on the number of daily transfers and care routine.
Sling-Type Transfer Design
The sling design allows the user to be lifted and lowered into the destination position. After lowering, the sling can be detached and the lift moved away, making it highly practical for wheelchairs, armchairs, toilets, and suitable vehicle transfers.
Powder-Coated Steel Frame
The frame is manufactured from Q235 steel with a powder-coated finish, providing strength, durability, and a clean professional appearance.
Waterproof Design
The unit is listed as waterproof, making it suitable for care environments where cleaning and moisture resistance are important. Normal care and maintenance procedures should still be followed.
Certified Product
The unit carries CE, ISO, and UKCA certificates, supporting its suitability for care and mobility-assistance environments.

Benefits for Caregivers
The electric lifting function helps reduce the physical effort required during transfers. Instead of manually pumping a hydraulic mechanism, the caregiver can operate the lift using the joystick control. This is especially beneficial where transfers are performed frequently or where the caregiver needs greater ease of operation.
The foldable frame also makes the unit easier to transport and store. This is useful for families, caregivers, and care providers who may need to transport it between different care locations.
The sling-type system gives the caregiver more flexibility when positioning the user, especially in tighter spaces where a fixed-seat design may be difficult to use.
Benefits for the User
For the user, the sling-type design allows for more adaptable positioning during transfers. The patient can be lifted, moved into place, and lowered into a wheelchair, armchair, toilet, bed, or suitable vehicle seat without needing a fixed seat to open or close around them.
The controlled electric lifting action may also provide a smoother transfer experience compared with manual lifting methods, depending on the care environment and caregiver technique.
The foldable frame adds convenience for users who may need transfer assistance in more than one location.
XFL-QX-YW07 vs XFL-QX-YW02
The XFL-QX-YW07 and XFL-QX-YW02 share the same core sling-type electric transfer function. Both models offer joystick-controlled electric lifting, rechargeable battery operation, and flexible sling-based positioning.
The key difference is that the XFL-QX-YW07 has a foldable frame, making it easier to store and transport. This makes it the better option where the unit may need to be packed into a vehicle, transported between care locations, or stored in a smaller space.

Sling Type vs Fixed Seat Type
Summit Surgical also offers a fixed-seat patient transfer lift chair, which is suitable for certain seated transfers. However, a fixed-seat model may not be ideal in every situation.
The sling-type model is often better suited when transferring a person into a car, wheelchair, or armchair because the user can be lowered directly into position and the sling can be detached afterward. This avoids the issue of needing space for a fixed seat to fold open or close around the user.
