got this product for a 90 year old lady with bad knees, etc. She says it really helps her get up easier with much less strain on her joints. its' very portable so she carries it with her. We like it.

2.) It changed my husband's life

My husband broke his arm and couldn't get out of his chair without help. I bought this product for him and it honestly changed his life. Instead of having to ask me to help him stand up, he could get up and sit down by himself. It gave him a measure of freedom that he desperately needed when he really wasn't feeling well.

Now I can't get it away from him.



3.) Satisfied

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.

4.) making life much easier

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!!



5.) Saves her knees

This device is well made and assists my wife significantly in arising from a chair. It is light enough to take out to dinner, so it allows her to go places where it would be difficult to use the chair.

6.) Easy-up Seat

My muscles and joints are giving me trouble when getting up and down from a sitting position. Boy, does this little riser seat help!! Not only that, it goes from room to room and seat to seat so easily.

This was purchased for an elderly person with mobility problems. Prior to purchase I thought to myself, how can this seat cushion, without electrical help, without anything needed to be plugged in anywhere....work? Well, it surely did. After trying it, I truly understood the strength of the "hydrolic" aspect of the cushion. It works very well.

8.) Cushion / seller good but... will never buy from Amazon again because they sell books and magazines on ANIMAL FIGHTING!

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!!!!!!!!!!

9.) Handy, not perfect.

I purchased this for my mom, who is 80 and barely walks due to parkinsons and an old broken back. It is fine for boosting her out of the chair, and sitting more gently. It is not terribly comfortable to sit on, and I am nervous about it throwing her off balance. You have to sit on it very upright, which can be a problem.

10.) Almost perfect

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.

11.) BOUGHT IT FOR MY MOTHER

BOUGHT THIS FOR MY MOTHER AFTER HER KNEE SURGERY. IT HAS HELPED HER AT THE HAIR DRESSER, AT THE DINNER TABLE, AND GETTING UP OFF OF A COUCH. SHE WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

12.) not easy to assemble

I purchased this for my 91 year old grandmother and had it shipped directly to her. Though she is completely independent and has her wits about her, she was unable to assemble the seat her self. She eventually got help from a neighbor. Once she used it she commented that it was sturdier than the previous model she had. She uses it on her couch because leg weakness makes it very difficult to get up. She is completely satisfied with the functionality and form of the product. This is the third such seat she has purchased. They seem to last about 2 years before the mechanicals break.

13.) Works, but not very comfortable

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.
