Bellavita

Portability, minimal effort to disassemble, valuable travel aid for inaccessible hotel bathtubs. The height the device reaches allows easy level transfers from standard wheelchair height.

None, as of yet. Curious about the durability and longevity of the device.

It gets the job done.

Lift is for my 87 yr old father

Works great. Easy setup. Lightweight and portable.

Plastic construction seems like it may not be robust enough to handle heavy side-to-side motion with a large person.

Spinal Cord Injury - Paraplegic

It is sturdy and easy to use.

I haven't found any weaknesses.

ruth c. from newport, wa

I am 85, very healthy and active, but I broke my hip and was unable to take a real bath! The Bellavita has been a godsend!

Durable, easy to install, held up to the good reviews and description.

Instructions were hard to follow, especially the plastic footings. Item came 80% assembled but instructions were as if you had to assemble 100%. Picture angles made them confusing.

27 yr old man with spastic /double hemiplegic cerebral palsy

At last I am able to take baths again. Due to the pain I endure in my knees I have been unable to get out of bathtubs until now.

Haven't used it long enough to know if product has weaknesses.

barbara y. from charlotte, mi

Having suffered a fractured ankle at age 79 and having arthretic knees getting in and out of bathtubs was a thing of the past.

Ease of putting it together for the first time. The height and the depth the seat goes. Very smooth movement.

The only thing I can see that is a weakness is the seat cover. It would be helpful to make it softer or something in your discription to let people know that is only a cover and not to expect a cushion.

The product does work as stated and that in itself is great. I recommend this product.

I have a garden tub so the width of my tub makes it a little hard to transfer from my wheelchair on to the lift and this make the suction cups come up because the flap can't touch the edge due to the width.

dolphine s. from college park, ga

I'm 53 yrs young and I have polio. It is harder getting out my tub by pulling me self up. This is the main reason I purchase this product.

Works well in our deep bathtub. My husband who has progressive ms can use this, saving us for now, the expense of a total bathroom remodel. He literally could not bathe without this and requires not much assistance from me.

Cover could offer more padding. Tends to slide off when transferring. Other than that, not major weaknesses.
