To get in and out of my wheelchair.

Needs head support

75 yo, 260 lb man who has a rare form of MD...Inclusion Body Myositis. He can no longer stand or walk so needs Hoyer for all transfers.

Its not poorly made

Its incorrectly sized Large is a small.

This design would work fine if it were sized correctly. I ordered a Large I'm six feet tall and the sling I received marked Large was way too small.

It is well-made and easy to put around the patient when he is in a sitting position.

The directions are not detailed enough. We have practiced with a young adult and are still not able to transfer my dad in a seated position as on the manual. It takes two people to position him from wheelchair onto the toilet as he is partially reclining. Hopefully we will get this figured out.

brenda v. from lake charles, la (caregiver)

My elderly dad who has difficulty transferring from chair to bed or toilet.

It can be used to move her from bed to chair or bed to shower seat and doesn't have to be left under her to get wet in the shower or left under her when going out in public in her chair.

I have not found any weaknesses.

the thick padding under the arms and back is essential for loadbearing

less bulky than the full sling

Uncomfortable in the legs when lifted. A padded material would be a bit better for a male

I was told to get the med. and I got the large so my husband could put a 2 in foam behind my back and under my arms and it works good.

Lot of room.

This is the second time I've purchased this product. I recommend this sling if you're looking for something that is durable and easy to remove between uses.
