4-Pt Padded U-Sling with Head Support: Review
Supports your whole trunk and head.
Sometimes the sling shifts and allows you to slide down. Allowing your body to be in an unsafe position.

I bought this sling for transferring in and out of my wheelchair. It's quick and easy to use. Just apply correctly to be safe.
Easy to use and provides secure transfers with Hoyer lift.
The Head Support feature is really good for an elderly person with a severe fear of falling. The sling is also easy to slip behind the patient. There's no need to roll the patient back and forth like with a long, full body sling.
The head support insert is a little difficult to insert after it is removed from the sling for washing.

The sling is used to transfer a 93 year-old from bed to portable commode to recliner and back to bed. The patient can no longer walk.
Works great
Easy to get positioned behind the person and remove after using.
Sometimes the straps that cross at the knees/thighs causes friction if the person moves repeatedly.

The individual who uses this sling has used this type of sling for 15 years. She has quadriplegia and Cerebral palsy with spasticity.
Good experience
Well-constructed
Head support needs re-engineered. Snap broke on first sling, same problem with replacement.

4-Pt Padded U-Sling with Head Support: Review
It is very well made and easy to use. My mother feels very secure in it.
The Head support is a piece of plastic inserted into a pocket in the sling. It was too stiff and uncomfortable. I removed it.

4-Pt Padded U-Sling with Head Support: Review
The sling is extremely heavy duty. We replaced an identical sling that we used every day for ten years. The different strap options allow for a variety of lifting positions. I have tested the sling on myself and found it to be very comfortable.
None. We looked at other products and weren't ever tempted to try another brand

Strong, comfortable for patient , easy to use, lifesaver.
The fact that it is easy to slip under the patient and then it easily slips out from under them when they are place in the wheelchair or on the bed. The sturdiness of the construction makes both the patient and the caregiver fell confident in it's use.
I have found no weaknesses whatsoever.

My father had a stroke almost a year ago and is paralyzed on his right side. He cannot walk or sit up without help. Through the VA I this.
