Dignity Lifts XL1 Extra Large Toilet Lift
PRODUCT DETAILS
Most toilet lifts are built around a 300 lb. capacity and a fairly narrow seat. For a larger person, that can mean a lift that feels cramped, or one that simply is not rated for them.
The XL1 is Dignity Lifts' highest-capacity model. It is rated to 650 lbs., with 25 inches between the handles and arms that come off entirely when more room is needed for getting on and off.
We selected the XL1 for households that need more capacity and width than a standard lift offers. Because it is close to 30 inches wide overall, it suits larger bathrooms; please measure before ordering.
One detail worth knowing: the included seat is rated to 450 lbs. Users above that weight sit on the lift's metal platform directly, as Dignity Lifts specifies.

Checking the fit before you order
Measure from the center of your toilet bowl to the nearest wall, tub, or vanity on each side, and check your toilet rim height. Toilets with a tank that flares sharply forward at the base may not fit. Dignity Lifts publishes a short "Will it fit?" guide, and we are glad to walk through your measurements with you before you order.
Returns: please read before ordering
Toilet lifts follow the Dignity Lifts return policy, not our standard 30-day return.
- Within 30 days of purchase, Dignity Lifts accepts an unopened box with the outer strapping intact (10% restocking fee), or a lift that could not be installed, returned with all parts in the original box and packing (20% restocking fee).
- A lift that has been used, or whose toilet-seat protective wrap has been removed, cannot be returned.
- Lifts without their original box and packing materials cannot be returned, so please keep them until you are sure the lift fits.
- Contact us before sending anything back, and we will arrange the return with Dignity Lifts.

Good to know
A toilet lift is a piece of home equipment, not a medical treatment. If you are unsure whether a lift suits someone's needs, it is worth discussing with an occupational therapist or physician. Ships by UPS Ground directly from Dignity Lifts in Troy, Michigan. Check current specifications and installation requirements with us or the manufacturer before ordering.
