 Almost perfect October 15, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I got one of these things for my 84 year old mother a few months ago. She was a little intimidated by it at first, but then one day started singing it's praises. So now I'm getting another one for my father (who weighs enough more that they can't share the same cushion). It's not the most comfortable chair in the world, and is too high to use at the dinner table, but it gives them some measure of independence.
 Works, but not very comfortable June 1, 2008

I bought this product for my mom. It did help her tremendously with sitting and standing.
However, it was too uncomfortable for her to sit on so I ended up returning it.
Also, it does not work well on sofas. It needs a very solid firm surface in order to work properly. If used on a soft sofa, it wobbles and tilts and could be a bit dangerous for her.

One of my patients is not able to get out of a chair without assistance. His wife now has problems with her shoulder and is not able to help him out of chairs. After telling me their situation, I ordered this product for them. They LOVE it. Jack is now able to get up and down without assistance and without any struggles. The only thing that he says could be considered a problem is that if he bends over to tie his shoes the lift assumes that he is trying to get up and "boosts" him out of the chair. He figures out that the way around that is to lift out of his chair, sit in his wheelchair and then bend over to tie his shoes. Jack's only complaint is that he didn't discover this product years ago!!
Cushion / seller good but... will never buy from Amazon again because they sell books and magazines on ANIMAL FIGHTING! March 11, 2008

I bought this before I heard Amazon has been asked many times
to stop selling Animal Fighting information, books and magazines
to people that abuse animals. I guess Michael Vick is their best
customer. I have heard that Amazon has a law suit in the courts
but still refuse to stop selling this information. Animal fighting
is against the law so why are they selling this???? What's next child
porn?
Shame on Amazon - Sorry I bought this through them it won't happen again.
If you have a pet
and love animals don't buy from them and spread the word.
Shame on Amazon!!!!!!!!!!

It does what is supposed to do. My 92 year old mom is able to get up unassisted which she was not able to do previously. A plus is that it is portable.
