Molift Raiser Pro Sit-to-Stand Patient Lift for Elderly Assist - Portable Chair Lift for Patients, Stand Lift for Elderly, Lift Assist for Elderly - Sturdy and Easy to Use Minimizes Stress

I estimate I had about a 80% chance it would work for my patient; he couldn't manage it, unfortunately, based on his declining abilities. He couldn't stand reliably. Had to return, which is pretty easy. His experience does not diminish the quality and utility of this product in any way. For someone who can stand on two feet when assisted to do so, this product is great! We used an accessory lifting strap (not included) to lift our moderately heavy patient from behind (very helpful). Once the patient is lifted and standing, the hand grips are sturdy, the upright portion does not sway or give much, and the patient feels secure with the forelegs up against the cushions. We tried on a thin, unpadded carpet and the six wheels did fine in supporting and moving the patient.

Absolutely recommend

This was amazing. My dad was losing his ability to walk/stand. This worked great for getting him in and out of the bed/chair/wheelchair/car. Simple to use even for my mom.

This sit to stand lift is durable enough, and is fairly simple to put together. I say fairly because there are two design flaws in this lift that I can see. One in the assembly process itself and one in the overall design that I feel would make it more functional if it were made differently. Assembly could have been pretty straight forward, but one of the screws with which you fasten the upper handle would not go in. Upon examination, I found that the hole on the right post that the handle fits on was misaligned. I tried forcing it, but that didn't work. So then I had to unscrew the bottom screws(the ones with the knobs) and try to twist the post in order to get it more in line with the hole in the upper handle. The post was hard to twist and didn't have much give to it, but by doing that, I was finally able to tighten the screw in that upper handle. The second issue I had with this lift was that the holes that you use to adjust the height of the cushioned leg support only goes up so far. It works well with a regular chair or a certain bed height, but not everyone has the same size bed or chair height, and that limits the range with which you can use this lift comfortably. Something that could be rectified with just a few more holes in the lift's poles so you can set the cushion a bit higher. Wither that said, the lift does help a person lift themselves up, and the wheels work smoothly on vinyl flooring or low carpeting. The braking system also works well, and it is very easy to step on the lever to lock the brakes. I can recommend this lift assist only if you don't have a higher than normal mattress or chair, or if you don't mind using some extra muscle during assembly in case you have to force install one of the screws simply to fit the handle on securely.

I recently Purchased the Molift Raiser Pro and I’m very happy with it. The only reason I did not give it five stars is because of the price and I was disappointed by Amazon’s customer service which I describe below. I have been a caregiver for my father for eight years and we were in desperate need of a product that could safely transfer him from his wheelchair to his bed and vice versa. I spent many weeks searching for something that would Be safe and sturdy and last. I could not find anything until I came across the Molift Raiser Pro. It meats everyone of our needs. My dad is on hospice and has nurses visit him every week. When they saw it, they thought it was great and asked me to text them links to where they can show it to other patients that they feel could really benefit from it. I sent them links to the product on your website as well as links to a few online videos, showing how it works. It’s a great product and the belt that comes with it is very strong. The wheels roll very smoothly on wood floors and tile floors but I would not recommend it on carpet. Overall, it’s a great product and I would highly recommend it. I do have a few issues with it though. See below. 1) it is expensive. When I purchased it on Amazon after taxes, it came to a total of $804. For that price, I was disappointed to discover that I did not get the lift block accessories shown on the manufacturers website. 2) The base that the patient stands on is barely wide enough for a larger person, it was clearly designed for a smaller person. My dad wears a size 13 shoe and can barely get both feet on it. But he still able to use it safely. My dad is 6’2” 340 pounds and his legs, specifically in the knee area, do not fit the very narrow width of the knee cushions. 3) Three or four weeks after I purchased it, Amazon drop the price by about $200. When I called Amazon and asked them if I could get refunded the difference between what I paid for it and the lower price, they told me the only way is to return the product and then re-purchase it for the lower price. this is ridiculous when we need it to help my dad and cannot go without it for the three weeks or longer that It would take to return it and then get another product back at the lower price. I’m pretty disappointed with Amazon for doing this when it would be so easy for them to just put a couple hundred dollars back on my credit card. They had to have known at the time I purchased the product that they were going to lower the price.
