Talking watch Mens

I bought this for my 99 yr old father who has lost his sight. He is able to locate the relevant buttons to operate time & date. My only criticism is that speed of the voice message is slightly too fast for elderly with poor hearing using hearing aid.

Inflatable rubber ring

The ring is good quality. However the joining fittings on my existing foot pump (recent purchase) do not work on this ring although do work on a similar inflatable product. Advice regarding suitable fittings would be appreciated.

Sliding ramp

It does all we want we needed a long 7ft ramp I would say the bag it comes with is a bit frayed and fragile and we haven't traveled with it yet

Walking Stick Ferrules

Not a lot you can write about them; they fitted and did the job. My one gripe was the postage cost which came to more than the goods!

In two minds

Very good customer service

Unfortunately the item arrived broken, but a call to customer services resulted in a delivery of a replacement the following day. That's very good customer service

Not out of reach

This item was reduced so great value, has unusual design I wanted it to assist with opening my window to avoid standing on anything ,not robust enough for the task but will pick up very small and light weight items ,the mechanism may present a problem to someone with difficulty in gripping none-the less a good item and excellent service

Very helpful

I bought this for my 97 year old mother who was in a lot of pain from her piles. It can't cure the problem but it takes the pressure off, as my mother spends much of the day sitting in her chair. It also arrived in less than 2 days, which is amazing service.

Well-made and strong

However, it's only earned four stars as the pistol grip might be too stiff for those with a weaker grip. The reacher works well for most purposes but can't pick up really small or rounded items

Not for the impatient!

The tip is fine for walking but getting your walking stick to actually stand up with it requires some patience; inevitable really given the size parameters. I actually bought it to protect our furniture as my walking stick (which I hope will be unnecessary when they eventually get around to replacing my hip) was forever bashing things and falling over. The tip has improved, if not entirely remedied the situation.

Hellywheels

Rec'd and just what was needed to modify my wife's Zimmer to full mobility zo that she can move around our large garden with moderate ease. Unfortunately had to refill stems to allow frame to move ina straight line because she is unable to enjoy our garden as the four wheeled rollator wheels tend to cut into a wet lawn or travel over a pebbled drive. Wished the stems were drilled at 45 and 90 degrees to the wheel axles!

Very sturdy and easy to move

Table was easy to put together (by my son!!!) and is perfect. Fits well over my riser armchair and allows me to eat all my meals at it rather than struggling to eat at a dining room table. The castors glide very easily letting me pull it to and push it away from my chair very easily but doesn't move around when eating. Very pleased with the quality. Only complaint was delivery by DPD - rang my doorbell and left before I could get to the door. Left it propped up against the door. Could have waited a minute and placed the parcel inside my flat.

Auto mobility solution

It's a little early to tell. My husband who has dementia struggles getting in and out of the car. Unfortunately he is suspicious of the handle so won't use it yet. Hopefully he will soon get used to it, as it will be great help.

Good folding sized travel Walking Frame

The walking frame comes in a lovely carry case, the size of a large beach bag. It's not heavy at all. I chose the pink colour and it looks v different to the usual grey. It is fairly easy to unfold and put together, although refolding it is a little bit more tricky ... but a carer can quite easily help. The elastic and clips help keep the pieces together nicely so you lose any parts to it. It is a tiny bit wobbly if the whole body is used on it to sit up or down, but is fine for walking with. Overall a good looking piece of kit.
