There are three kinds of home elevator owners. There are those homeowners who have a need for easier access now, those who are considering future needs, and those who see the value and convenience of a home elevator regardless of mobility issues. Steps are great for exercise but not very convenient when you have a trunk full of groceries and the garage and kitchen are on different levels, or when you need to move bulky items from floor to floor. In fact, stairs can be down right dangerous in certain situations.
