Like it but not a cure all for transfers.
The quality of the product.
No neck support. I had to sew on a neck support and straps to give support for my wife's neck.

My wife is a 64 year old ALS patient. She has no use of her arms or legs with limited muscle strength in her neck. I transfer her from bed to toilet.
It is the third of its type we have purchased and meets our...
We have only had to replace the sling three times in the past five years due to abrasion by her wheel chair arm catching on to the sling unnoticed.
The only problem has been the very hard edge binding along the front edge and around the toilet cut out, which can hurt the skin. We do not remove the sling during the daytime because it is difficult to make the change over to a flat sling(no hole). A cut-out in a disposable bed pad with a smaller hole does minimize the abrasion problem.

My wife uses the sling for all her toiletry needs. She is bed/wheelchair bound. We use an electric Hoyer hoist.

The ones I got are the gray ones they are not near as soft as the green ones were but you don't have the green ones any they are rougher on my wife, too stiff.

It does the job and washes well.
ease of use and cleaning
could use a "handle" on the back to allow one caregiver to control the sling while another runs the life.

It is much lighter than my old one, so I hope it holds up to daily use.

Good product - could use some improvements.
The fact that this sling/pad scoops the neck and shoulders to support the residents who can't hold on to use other hygiene slings.
I had to have our laundry dept sew the end of a strap over twice - because if not the strap could slide out and come competely out of one side of the clip part that comes around the waist - this would be unsafe for larger residents. The hole (for hygiene)could be larger or maybe more that one size to choose from for very different sized residents.
