Hi,
Received the dumbwaiter on Wednesday. Saturday, I set to installing it. Couldn't find any help, so I did it by myself. If anyone asks, it took me about 4 hours to install the dumbwaiter, complete the wiring and have it up and running. It took some planning. I nailed 2x4's to the inside walls about 8' above the second floor. Then spanned the shaft with another 2x4. I used a chain hoist (manual) to lift the middle section into the shaft to about 7' from the basement floor. To attach to the section, I used a piece of chain with hooks at both ends and hooked under the bottom of the section into the tube steel.
After lifting the middle section up, I slid the bottom section under it, then lowered the middle section back down. The top section was light enough and at a good height so that I could just lift it into place (after removing my chain hoist rig).
Attached the chain, did some wiring, installed the car, etc. and it works like a charm.
I think this is a wonderful product and can't wait to finish the house and use it regularly. If you have any other potential customers in Oklahoma City, feel free to give them my name as a reference.
Thanks again for the prompt shipping.

Hi David.
Just want to thank you all for the Dumbwaiter. It is in, and working just fine! I love it! What a blessing; saves me many trips up and down steps carrying things way to heavy for me. Little do you know how I thank God almost every day for the blessing of that little cart that goes up and down for me.

Dear Mr. John Reite
Thank you very much for coming to my home and adjusting my dumbwaiter, it has been three years since you 1st installed the unit and during this time I have found you to be responsive well beyond what one could expect from a contractor.
Due to construction problems with the house itself, there was over a years time elapse between installing the dumbwaiter rail assembly & returning to complete the finish installation of the motor, push buttons, and door safety switches. When I called to tell you we were finally ready to install the motor, and finish up everything on the dumbwaiter, you were out within a day to complete the job.
Quite frankly I was concerned that due to the construction delay you would either be out of business, or want to charge additional costs, needless to say nether was true!!
Having dealt with many, many subcontractors & installers I am in a good position to commend you for your honesty, integrity, quality work, and outstanding follow through.
Should you have the need please feel free to list me as a reference. Believe me you will get an outstanding endorsement from me.
Thanks again John

I wanted to write to you and tell you just how pleased I am with your Dumb- waiter! I have just finished installing it and everything went very well! The first story unit is located in a butler's pantry off the kitchen and the second story unit is in our walk in closet. My wife, uses it to transport laundry and other miscellaneous stuff to the second story.
Firstly, I am very impressed by your service. It was very straightforward to get the details worked out for the specifications and it was actually built and delivered when you said it would be!! That's a miracle in this world today and a first in our remodeling experience! I also want to thank you again for the second set of magnetic switches for the safety locks on the doors. I installed double doors to match the cabinetry in the rooms and they look great!
Second, it installed according to plan without a surprise...another new and refreshing experience! I did all of the installation myself, with the exception of lowering the middle unit from the second story, when I needed my son to help me.
Third, and most important, it works like a charm! I want to tell you that this had been one thing that was important to my wife in our remodeling plans. And she is having just a great time using it and it is the highlight of her day when she can show it off to her friends!
Finally, the price was so affordable! Our contractor wanted $10,000 to do this for us and I just couldn't see spending that for a dumbwaiter. My wife, however, had a different opinion and I was in the dog house until I found your unit on the internet. Not only was it designed better than the one proposed by the contractor, but it was 1/3 the cost!
I just had to share these thoughts with you. I also own my own business, and I know that anything that is a problem comes through loud and clear. But, when something goes right, we don't often take the time to tell someone about it and simply say "Thanks""
So, in this case where so much went right.....THANKS!!!!
Sincerely,
Name withheld by request.

Dear Mr. John,
Thank you so much for your kind assistance in facilitating the repair of our dumbwaiter. Enclosed is your tool as promised. As it turned out, it was not the actual chain that broke but rather the small part that connected the two ends. Thank you for including several of these along with the chain link that you sent. The handyman had no trouble at all, as you predicted, in making the repair. Judging by the apparent stress on this small connector, my husband must have put to much weight in the cab - resulting in it’s break. He will try not to do this again.
I particularly appreciate your help at this time, with all the hardship of my chemo. Even simple problems can become overwhelming at such times. Your ready willingness and generosity made my problem easier to deal with.
Thank you sincerely.
With Warm Regards, Beth Barlow
P.S. Sorry about using Mr. - I can’t bring myself to ignore my up-bringing.

Dear David:
In January, I ordered a dumbwaiter from your company. It is now installed and working beautifully. My contractor said that the installation was as uncomplicated as you all claim. Dealing with you all was also uncomplicated.
Thank you.

In 2000, my wife and I retired and built our two story dream home near the ocean. In order to take advantage of the all the great views, we designed our home so all the major living area including the kitchen, would be upstairs. We soon realized that carrying all our groceries and supplies up the stairs was not a good idea and we decided to put in a dumbwaiter. Since our contractor did not have any experience in installing a dumbwaiter, we went online and found Powerlift dumbwaiters and purchased the upgraded model.
That was 10 years ago and since then it has been a god sent. It also has been extremely reliable and in the past 10 years we have only had two issues. Five years after installation , we had a major power outage and the lift was not stopping in the correct position. When I called, they spent a good deal of time on the phone with me walking me through the problem and showing me how to correct the problem. They also explained other features at the same time so I could correct them if they ever came up. Now 10 years after the unit was installed the door switch broke and they were not only courteous and helpful but sent the replacement part in the mail which I received after only two days. Very rarely do you find a company who has the customer service and support of their products like Powerlift does. I am very satisfied and have recommended them to all my friends who are in the same situation. I also have told my contractor if he ever has a request from customers to install a dumbwaiter he can send them to us so we can testify to how well the companies products are and would recommend Powerlift dumbwaiters to anyone. Please feel free to use this letter as a recommendation to any of your customers.
Thanks for a great product and support

The dumbwaiter is operating properly and your instructions cured the problem. It has worked for the last few days perfectly. I am glad I had the opportunity to work out a few problems with it. Your service is excellent, and I appreciate the help. Thanks again and I am pleased I purchased the unit from you. Please feel free to use me as a reference anytime.

In 2004 when we had a home custom built and I wanted to add a dumbwaiter from our laundry room to the master bath on the second floor. The elevator dealer wanted $12,000.00 to install and he only installed one dumb waiter prior to our request. I immediately went on the internet and found your company. I called and spoke to your office to get all the details, then had our custom builder, Carlton Naumann order and install it. Your cost was 1/4 of the price the elevator company quoted. Plus the cost of two men, two hours to install.
Eight years later and I am still thrilled with it. It has never failed me. I use it so much between laundry and supplies and anything that needs to be sent upstairs to the master suite or my office.
Only one small problem, in eight years, the light module went out on the lower level and it was easily purchased from you and replace by my husband.
I would never have a two story house without a dumbwaiter. It just makes life so easy. I would buy another from you if we ever built another home.
One request........a hanging bar for clothes would be a nice accessory. “ Powerlift would like to say “We do have a cloths hanger for our cars””
So, after eight years, I want you to know how much we appreciate your wonderful product and thank you for making my life so easy.
Sincerely,
