Carex Uplift Premium Seat Assist Plus With Memory Foam - Chair Lift And Sofa Stand Assist - 70% Seat Lift Assistance Up To 350lbs

This one is a little bit smaller than my old one but works great. The cushion is comfortable. My primary use is when I need to use my walker to sit in like at doctors office, this fits in the seat and gets me on my feet very easily. I have a hard time rising from a normal chair or couch. This is easy to take with me. One complaint I have seen with these chair lift devices is that people try to rise up going forward and trust me, don’t. Try to lift straight up, not forward. Learned my lesson with my old one, didn’t like it at first and then trying to use my walker with this new one trying to fix a plumbing problem and leaned forward. Definitely moved me forward, not up. If adjusted to your weight, this can help lift 70% of your body weight so make sure to get the right one. I call this my ejector seat and well worth the cost. So tired of not being able to get back on my feet from sitting down but this gives me back some of my independence.

Seemed like a good idea and it does help someone rise. BUT the seat is torturous and after a short time hurt my wife’s lower back. Now we can’t return it for some reason. Probably best work around for us is a thick cushion.

I bought this to my mother .It is not very comfortable and most of the time doesn't work ,doesn't go down no matter how much pressure yu put on it .I usually put it on the chair .Don't buy it

This seat has been totally helpful in its use when my husband needs to stand from a sitting position. It's helped us greatly in our present situation.

Recently I developed an arthritic condition in my hip that made standing up from my chair very difficult. This product provides just enough boost to help me stand without struggling. It is not very comfortable to sit in for long periods because the seat cushion isn't very thick. It was easy to adjust for my weight although I did have to set it a little lower than my actual weight because I felt it was pushing up too strongly at first. I'm happy I purchased this.

I am bound in a wheelchair learning to walk and have issues getting up onto the walker and my physical therapist made me aware of these. I went and purchased one. We adjusted it to a lot less weight than I am and the second time we tried it. It nearly shot me over the top of the walker. I waited too long to return it and I ordered two because one was gonna be too far away in the shipment and they both came within days. So now I’ve spent over $300 and I can’t return them even though one of them is still in the box and the other ones been used twice. So no, I am not pleased with this product or the company and provides it.

For my dad with very advanced Alzheimer's. We could not lift him out of a sitting position to transfer him to bed. This REALLY helped us out, since he's 240 lbs and can not be lifted. It gave us the needed "start" to a standing position. It is not recommended for wheelchair use because when a person leans forward it activates the lift. However, I got this so he could use it in his wheelchair, but made sure the legs on the chair were up so he could not lean forward and activate it. When we transfer him from the chair to bed it is important to have the brakes on so it does not roll backwards when he stands. He is now able to be taken outside to sit in the sun or go for walks around the block. With the proper precautions, having the legs elevated and brakes on, it has been an awesome addition to my dad's quality of life.

The seat assist arrived in a timely manner and looks nice. However, the slight lift is not, as advertised, enough to be of help standing. This Amazon purchase has been a nightmare. I could not complete a return on my "orders" account, as I normally would be able to do. It went around in circles, incomplete. So, I called customer service and was told I would receive a return label by immediate email, and that I would be penalized $86 for returning this $192.33 item. I did get an email restating the penalty, but not offering a return label. I have tried to get help from Amazon with this, but have been unsuccessful. UPDATE: It took a long time, but Amazon chat first said I would not get the refund because it was an "additional item sent in error". However, I ordered one, paid for one, and received one, "Chat" finally figured out the issue and I have received a mailing label and have been told I will receive a full refund in 4-6 business day!.
