ProBasics Hydraulic Patient Lifter

The big wheels allow me to use it inside and outside of the house. I shortened the straps on the sling and can use it to put him in a vehicle. It rolls over rugs easily and rolls over cement and grass outside. comes apart for taking it with us when we travel to visit family.

I haven't found any weaknesses.

Husband is bedfast and sometimes cannot get out of bed.

Easy to use as a single caretaker... the lift is built strongly and gives a sense of confidence to both of us

Wife was confined to bed - now I can get her into a chair which is giving us both a little bit of a normal life.

Spreading legs make this easy to maneuver into tight places. Metal tubing is very solid, hydraulic lever requires very little effort. This lift can easily reach a patient at floor level. Great lift!

Caregiver for elderly person who has loss strength and went down. Only safe way to get them up.

gene p. from wellington, ut (caregiver)

Almost unable to get around

The light weight body style,the ease in assembly, the lift handle is in exactly the right position for pumping the sling up

The biggest weaknesses are the sling and the location of the release lever. The sling is way too big and bulky and difficult to remove once my young lady is in her chair resulting in me almost tumbling her out of her chair. At this time we are using her old sling. The release lever is in a place that she keeps bumping as she is being lifted causing her to drop down.

The young lady(33)who uses this lift is a quadreplegic with profound mental retardation and seizure disorder

Easy to manuever. Customer service really goes the extra mile!

This is a well-made patient lift device. It is quite strong. It is good quality. It was delivered across the country amazingly fast.
