Classic Deluxe Power Lifter

Not too big. Easy to use.

Occasionally it does not work. The cord seems to loosen from the center pole. A little jiggling and moving of the cord starts it again. I'm sure the caretakers are stretching the cord too much and the connection is lost. Perhaps the cord could be slightly longer although too long would be in the way. Maybe the cord connection could have a stronger coupling to prevent this. Works great most of the time.

The patient lifter is good would be better if the sling that I specified had actually had ever been delivered.

Well made. Looks like it will be durable.

As for the lift, the spreader bar was very hard to adjust at first, but it eventually loosened up.

I bought this lift for a young adult who is confined to a wheelchair. She does not walk and cannot assist in transferring.

ease of maneuverability & electric lifting cut the time required to put him to bed from about 1 hour to 15 minutes AND I no longer have sore muscles.

Because my son is 6'2", I have to be careful that his knees do not make contact with bar. I was thinking of checking about facing him in the opposite direction so his legs are outside of the lift frame. Until I check with his PT, I will do everything as I have been taught. THANKS for a TERRIFIC item!!!!

I am a 61 year old user with ms and it helps my wife to get me in a scooter or a chair from the bed.

Ease of lifting the patient and placing the patient. Having a full body sling is the key to a more comfortable "ride".

Have not found a weekness yet

Use lift to move my 95 year old father. It does make a difference and helps us give him a different view and room and time with the family. IT is fair
