Good product

My foot is a little wide to fit comfortably through the frame but it works well and saves bending.

Sturdy step

This item was bought as the step up to my back door was uncomfortably high, particularly if carrying anything heavy. This step is comfortable and feels very stable and is used multiple times daily by myself and my large dog.

Does what it says

Stable base to add 5-8cm to my new chair so mother can get in and out ok. You can see it and it's not the most beautiful thing or I'd have given it 5* but it really does what it says very effectively,

Feel more confident when walking with this

Feel more confident when walking with this as not too steady without. Quite slimline. The only thing that lets it down for me though are the handles are quite hard and as i can't find any soft handle grips to fit I've had to put a couple of pairs of soft socks on them. Other than that i'm pleased I purchased it especially as it's got a seat as well.

Catheter bag stand

The stand itself is great , the bit at the top what holds the pipe isn't ,the pipe often falls out because there's nothing to hold it in, so I'm constantly picking the bag up of the floor , I got my husband to bend the bag holders a bit more so that the bag would stay on the stand , this solved the problem

Happy with commode

This was bought for my parents who are very happy with the commode, does as it should but looks like a nice bedroom chair rather than what it is!

Good blanket cradle

As a peripheral neuropathy sufferer, I regularly have pain in my legs, feet and toes. Even the lightest duvet can seem like a heavy weight on my feet, making the pain worse. This blanket cradle is ideal for lifting the duvet off of my feet. It is easy to adjust the height of the cradle between it's three levels. A slight problem is that even the highest setting is not high enough to prevent my toes catching the duvet (I am size 7 shoe)

Good Wipes

These are great for washing someone with when bed bathing. Saves on washing flannels and just more hygienic. Quality is good. Bear in mind they are not good for drying off with. A towel is much better. For washing though they are handy and easy to use.

Should have bought one years ago.

As someone with widespread osteo-arthritis, especially of the spine, time and age have taken their toll and my balance and grip are not what they were. Also, gone are the days when I could stand on a chair or ladder to reach those carefully stored items on a high shelf or cupboard top, so a friend recommended one of these grabbers. I went online, read all the reviews for various brands and eventually settled on the Essential Aids 32" version as that appeared to suit my needs most. Priced fairly, delivery was quick, but first impressions were that it's not quite as sturdy as I'd hoped and I would have preferred the gripper to have slightly wider jaws. Hence the 4*. Having said this, these are early days and so far my worries have been groundless, so I would say that for anyone considering such a purchase, give this version from Essential Aids consideration. They are the experts after all!

Well made and sturdy

A very good product and well made. However it was bought so that it could be folded away after use but the clips on the tray that fix to the sides of the trolley are difficult to clip on and remove for a 91 year old as her hands are very arthritic. Therefore she has to keep the trolley assembled and is not able to fold it away. The wheels are very smooth and the height is adjustable so it is easy to move around with. Overall, a very good product.
