    Power Lift Chair Part II

    I was ready to buy a Golden Power Lift Recliner and then I came across a chair that had all the options we wanted and it felt extremely comfortable. The tipping point was it was only $1100. I took Marie to the store to try it and she agreed it felt very comfortable so we bought it. After it was...

    Power Lift Recliner

    I would have added this to earlier posts but they are closed. I want to ask about PLR I saw "Golden" recommended but they go for $1700 up to $3400. I can get a PLR on Amazon for $500 to $800 so my obvious question is what makes the chair so much more expensive and is it worth the large cost...

    Will a lift chair help

    My PALS is 9 months post diagnosis. His arms have little to no strength and his hands have become useless. The last few weeks he has experienced extreme weakness in his legs especially on his dominant right side. I need to help him out of his recliner as he has become too weak to get out on his...

    Portable ceiling lift recommendations/reviews

    I will soon be in the market for a portable ceiling lift. Aside from the occasional post of a used one for sale, I haven't been able to find reliable ratings or recommendations of any. I was wondering if/hoping I could get some feedback of quality, reliable models to look into. Thanks!

    Motorized Toilet Lift

    Do any PALS use something like this? My PALS is loosing the strength to stand, wasn’t sure is this would help. It’s very pricey. We used a motorized sit-to-stand today. It worked well but was a little clumsy.

    Opinions Needed - Ramp vs Platform Lift

    We have 5 steps to get into our house. We’re being proactive since we know these will be a problem for my PALS in the near future. He currently just uses a rollator. We’ve talked with 3 companies about metal ramps and VPLs (vertical platform lifts). The cost will be about the same for...

    Lift Chair Question

    For those of you with Golden lift recliners, can I get my PALS into it with a hoyer? I have been exclusively using a hoyer to transfer him for a while now. I'm pretty sure he could not stand on his own even with support, even just for a pivot transfer. (I'd be scared to death to even try.)...
