Med-Mizer Med-Riser 1000 Electric Lift, 1000 lb
Med-Mizer Med-Riser 1000 Electric Full-Body Lift — Powered Base, 1000 lb
Overview
The Med-Mizer Med-Riser 1000 is the flagship of the Med-Riser line — a fully electric full-body lift rated to a full 1000 lbs, built for the highest-capacity transfers where strength, reach, and stability all have to be there at once. Both the lift and the base are powered: the boom raises and lowers under electric control, and the base legs open and close with a button rather than a foot pedal, so a caregiver keeps both hands on the person and stays in control throughout the move.
It's engineered around comfort at capacity. An extra-wide four-point spreader bar spreads the sling to relieve pressure on the shoulders, and an industry-first design adds space and comfort at maximum lift height while protecting the actuator. An exceptionally long lift arm gives a wide working range — a high sling-bar height of 74 inches down to a low of 36 — so it handles transfers from a bed, a chair, or the floor, and works for standing, seated, or lying positions. A thick, reinforced push handle with a push-and-kick support bar gives multiple caregivers solid grip points and added leverage, and dual controls on both the hand pendant and the control box keep it operable at any time. A sling is selected separately, and an optional scale can be added to weigh at the point of care.

Equipment Specialist Insight: At 1000 lbs this is the top of the Med-Riser range, and it earns the spot with more than a capacity number — the details are what make a transfer at this weight actually work. The powered base is the one caregivers notice first: opening and closing the legs with a button instead of a foot pedal means hands stay on the person, which matters more the heavier the transfer. The extra-long lift arm is the second: that 74-inch high reach down to a 36-inch low is a genuinely wide range, so the same lift covers a bed, a chair, and a recovery from the floor, in standing, seated, or lying positions. The extra-wide four-point bar spreads the sling to take pressure off the shoulders, and the reinforced push handle with the kick bar is built for two caregivers working together, which is often the reality at this capacity. Two ordering notes: the sling is separate, so match the style and size to the person and confirm its weight rating carries to 1000 lbs; and the integrated scale is a worthwhile add if weights are tracked, since it saves a separate transfer onto a floor or chair scale. It's a large freight item — plan for delivery and setup.

What does "powered base" mean?
The base legs open and close by motor rather than a foot pedal, so the caregiver can keep both hands on the person during a transfer instead of bending down to adjust the legs — especially valuable at this capacity.
What can the scale do?
The optional integrated scale weighs at the point of care during a transfer, so there's no need to move onto a separate floor or chair scale. It's compatible with the Med-Riser 600 and 1000 lifts.
Is a sling included?
No — a sling is selected separately so you can match the style (full-body, divided-leg, commode, or bathing) and size to the need. Confirm the sling's weight rating carries to the load being lifted.
A sling is sold separately. Retail packaging and specifications may be updated by the manufacturer without notice. This is a large, heavy item; ensure proper sling selection, fit, and weight rating, train caregivers on safe operation, and always follow the manufacturer's instructions.
