Works great
Dries fast and easy to position for use and remove after use.
Straps that cross at knees/thighs can cause redness or sores if the person moves repeatedly.

Person has quadriplegia and cerebral palsy with spasticity.
Borders are hard. It pinches skin and caused bruise.

Pressure point should be softer material not to cut circulation and cause bruising.

Used to get him in the shower chair using Hoyer lift
It seems strong enough to do the job. This will enable me to get him into the shower.
Mesh is scratchy on his skin. Length of straps and sizing of sling seems too big. He is 6 feet tall, weighs 195 pounds so I ordered large, then had to get a medium. different type of material would be easier on skin such as a thin nylon.

My husband has very little mobility due to a condition named Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. This will enable me to get him into the shower.
We thought she had outgrown her original sling and ordered...
It's OK
If there were some way that we could grasp the effective size of it from the literature, it would be a big help.

My wife uses the sling to give our daughter, who is profoundly retarded, a bath.
The sling is easy to get under the patient; and airy to sit...
Strong, slippery, easy to dry.
The head support doesn't seem to do much.

Does not work like I had hoped
It is strong and well made for the intended use.
The top sling straps are not separated in 3 individual sections but are made as only one thus the patient is not picked up in a good sitting position. The black straps are too rough. They should be a smoother nylon strap. The head support is way too big and gets in the way. I removed it and tied the strap together near the top so it would pick her up in a better position. If slings were returnable I would have sent this one back.

My wife has no mobility and is full time in a Wheel Chair. I use a Hoyer to move her all the time.
Works great
Easy for my husband to use to help me.

Would recommend but size is very important.
Was purchased to be used daily with Bowel Treatment and Shower after.
The webbing that goes between the legs should be of a softer fabic.

I purchased a Large Sling. While the Sling does what it is supposed to do effectively, when criss-crossing between the legs, it has left marks
Nylon Mesh Bath Sling with Head Support: Review
durability - stores well - wash and dry easily and quickly
the plastic head support - we always remove it - too stiff and uncomfortable

the chance of it becoming soiled while transferring patient are almost non=existant a big convenience
