Good walking sticks

I ordered two walking sticks, one for my right and one for my left hand. The length is slightly too long for me 5 foot 1. My husband used his hacksaw to cut them down. Otherwise very good as they fold. They come with a clip to keep them secure when folded.

Great but hard to assemble

Solid 4/5, a great aid for the shower and very sturdy. It came as three parts, the seat and two legs with screws to put in, which were hard to tighten by hand and needed a drill/electric screwdriver. Bear this in mind if you have any issues with grip strength or using hand tools! A drill with a phillips head attachment did the trick for assembling mine just fine.

makes life easier

Maybe I have not put it together right, but one of the 'arms' wobbles a little and cannot be tightened anymore. Other than that it assists my mother in her day to day movements around the house. She's happy.

Very well made

Very well made crutches, with very good delivery within two days. Just a note that it can be painful un-clipping and re-positioning the clips, if you have eg arthritic thumbs/hands. The irony of that doesn't escape me, and the handles are incredibly comfy, as described, after adjustment. Better to pull clips back around the crutch, without using thumbs, then push them back on with palm. These crutches feel like they'll last a very long time, and it's definitely good to have handles that don't catch on hand joints.

Works for large tablets

Purchased as some of the vitamin tablets being taken are horst tablet sized. This tablet dispenser easily handles the largest of tablets with ease.

Solid construction, Easy to build, easy to transport

The rollator been purchased for an aging parents who wanted some wheels to ensure their independence. So far, its being put to good use. It's been collapsed down with relative ease for going places. My only minor feedback is the wheels are solid plastic with a rubber coating. We have found some dropped kerbs or less than flush ironwork, even with the smallest of lips can get the wheels bound up, requiring the wheels to be lifted.

Works well

I have not been able to take a bath in months only shower. Due to a medical condition (one of many) I need to sit in water. As i was stuck in the bath (how embarrassing) before my husband and son had to lift me out. My stool has made life bearable again as i can get in and out of the bath on my own. A little bit of independence back. Thank you!

Good product

Following a hip replacement putting on socks was very difficult but have found the sock puller to be a great help.

Right handled

The angled knife was just as expected and being disabled will give me a further degree of independence.

Great price

Bought the armchair table for my 93 year old Mum who is disabled and spends most of her day in a large riser recliner. This table is great as it's wide enough to comfortably fit over the chair and get right up close to my mother when eating meals. The types of tables that are designed to go under armchairs are no good for riser recliners as there is no space underneath for the table to fit do this option of going right over the chair is the only one available.

Toilet seat

On the plus side you can take it with you if you are going somewhere that has not a disabled toilet. Comfortable to sit on. Minus side - you have to make sure there are no small cuts in the under side. I have bought these from different company and had to send them back.

Effective and easy to use

The aid for putting on socks was as described on website, was easy to use and was effective.

Stable, easy to use product.

This is a sturdy frame which is easy to put up and put in place. It provides a secure framework on which to place your weight when trying to sit or stand. There is a definite knack to closing the frame again. Once you have mastered it, it is easy to put down and store until next time it is needed.

Good quality, easy to use product.

This is a comfortable and solid toilet seat. It is easy to fit and easy to remove without the need to remove the existing toilet seat. Also easy to keep clean.
