Hoyer 4-Pt Padded U-Sling with Head Support
Benefits
Reviewer: donna h. from junction city, ks
User Details: 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.
Strengths: Supports your whole trunk and head.
Weaknesses: Sometimes the sling shifts and allows you to slide down. Allowing your body to be in an unsafe position.

Reviewer: anne-marie m. from leesburg, va (caregiver)
User Details: 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.
Strengths: 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.
Weaknesses: The head support insert is a little difficult to insert after it is removed from the sling for washing.

Reviewer: steve r. from roseville, ca (caregiver)
User Details: 40 year old male with CP
Strengths: 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.
Weaknesses: None. We looked at other products and weren't ever tempted to try another brand
