This lift is very strong and helps my 260 pound husband stand to transfer to his chair and bed.

I do not note any weaknesses with this lift.

luann l. from linden, mi (caregiver)

My husband needs assistance to stand and transfer from bed to chair or chair to chair and this Hoyer lift has proven very useful in this assistance.

Easy to navigate on non-carpeted floors. Does its job very well.

Not good on rugs even with a small pile.

enables caregiver to preform many functions that is less stressful on patience and operator. And functions unable to preform otherwise.

Quality, features, ease of use.

I have not seen any weaknesses. Hoyer should work with insurance companies to get a billing code for this medical equipment so that the cost will be covered just like a wheelchair.

ladd t. from spanish fork, ut (caregiver)

MS for 34 years. Wheelchair bound. Single person transfers can be very difficult. Sit-to-Stand lift really helps with transfers.

Compact, yet quite stable.

Pulls a little hard on our plush carpets.

The Journey Stand Aid Stand-Up Patient Lift we purchased does everything Spin Life said it would do. I would recommend it for tight spaces.

The lift is easy to use and works so well!

I see no weaknesses.

donald k. from madison, in

I am 85 years old and use the lift all the time to get from my lift chair to my scooter and back again. I couldn't do without it.

It is well-made, easy to use, and takes up little space compared to other lifts.

Knee straps are a bit awkward to use in close quarters, and easily slide off the post that anchors them, so I wrapped the post with a rubber band to prevent them from sliding off easily.

I'm my husband's caregiver. The Journey Stand Aid is allowing me to continue that role by saving my back. We both love the Stand Aid. No more FALLS!

Solid construction. Works as designed, just not for us.

For us - it didn't work. It pulled the sling up under her arms, but didn't lift her lower half.

george b. from san antonio, tx (caregiver)

We purchased the lift for my wife, who has MS. From what I could read and see, the lift replicated the way I have lifted her for transfer to and from

Quality product

Straps around legs are awkward to use. They should go all the way with this basic design and make a stand-up power mobility device to replace the antiqued wheelchair design.

My wife is 69 years old, spinal cord damaged with deteriorated knee and hip joints. Wheelchair-bound, unable to stand.

Easy operation

It is my wife; she is 73 years old. She cannot stand or walk by herself. With the stand assist, she is now able to get in the car.

It is very sturdy and works reliably.

For the first few days of use, my underarms were sore and aching. We have added sheepskin pads to the areas of the sling that go under my arms. This has made the lift process more comfortable. The plastic caps covering the mast bolts both broke off within the first week. Although this does not affect the lift usage, it it disappointing that this should happen so soon, and without impact or misuse on our part.
