  6. 4-in-1 Perching Stool
    Value for money 4-way perching stool
    Review by C. Wright Posted on 18/12/2024
    Versatile perching stool with adjustable legs, a slightly tilted seat, armrests and a backrest. You can configure it to meet your needs. Assembly is pretty straightforward but a bit fiddly to adjust the legs. Anyone with a weak grip will need some help. I bought it during sale and the price was pretty reasonable. The stool is lightweight and fairly sturdy.

  7. Brown Wacmat (60cm x 85cm - Small)
    Incontinence mat
    Review by A. Orr Posted on 17/12/2024
    Great mat. Ideal for bedside! Only complaint would be that a size between medium and large would be great!

  15. Urine/Catheter Bag Floor Holder
    A good height...
    Review by Nic G Posted on 14/12/2024
    ...because shorter ones can get trapped under the side of the hospital bed and when carers or nurses lower the bed they have previously crushed the stands. Being taller, it is more obvious and doesn't slide under the bed. Plastic ones break too easily so metal is better. It would be even better if the metal was a bit thicker.

  16. Queen Anne Fireside Footstool (Dark Cream)

  25. Folding Commode Chair
    Handy
    Review by D. Smith Posted on 12/12/2024
    Pros Not too big and just folds away brilliant if you don’t have much space or if you need to take on holiday with you Cons The commode does have a lid but that is just for emptying it your commode is open to the elements while it is placed on the product Overall it does the job and is a good price

  28. Height Adjustable Kitchen Strolley Trolley with Brakes
    Great tea trolley
    Review by Narrin Posted on 11/12/2024
    When my gran started falling in her flat she refused to get a walking frame because "she's not that old" (she's 92!) I was finally able to get her to accept one of these as it's a tea trolley. The trolley is nicely adjustable and very stable. Good value and as she has stopped falling the peace of mind in priceless!

    Actually returned this order
    Review by T. Curtis Posted on 10/12/2024

    Excellent.
    Review by S. Wilcock Posted on 07/12/2024
    Exactly what I needed now that I can't use an ordinary small knife. The handle is comfortable and doesn't slip. The blade is very sharp and was great for chopping carrots and swede into small chunks.

  47. Knife for Chef
    Jolly good.
    Review by S. Wilcock Posted on 07/12/2024
    Very sharp and seems to be well made. I've got RA and I've been having increasing difficulty with cutting up various foods. So far, I've used this on steaks ( like cutting butter), bread ( thin slices and thick ) and carrots ( OK but I prefer a smaller knife for vegetables ). The handle is comfortable. I'm really pleased with this knife

  48. Dual-Pointed Vacuum Seal Suction Safety Rail
    Great support
    Review by m. jones Posted on 07/12/2024

  52. Everyday Bib Triple Pack (Medium Green)
    Excellent Bibs
    Review by K. Menzfeld Posted on 05/12/2024
    These bibs are really excellent. The size is really good for my Mum as they cover the front of her clothes right down to her lap tray when she eats her meals. So she relaxes so well now while eating as she is not afraid that she will make her clothes dirty. We highly recommend these bibs a. The triple pack is great value for money and they wash very well too.

  54. Uccello Kettle (White/White)
    Perfect for my needs
    Review by H. Honey Posted on 05/12/2024
    I bought the Uccello kettle because of limited use in both arms. It has turned out to be an excellent purchase. It is easy to fill and it’s tilting action makes it much safer to use than having to lift an ordinary kettle. It boils quickly and is easy to tilt with one hand. It also looks stylish. This was bought as a temporary measure, but I won’t be returning to my old kettle after my injury has healed. Highly recommend.

  66. Grab rails
    Review by D. Courtney Posted on 02/12/2024

    Review by J. Middleton Posted on 01/12/2024
    I bought these crutches to replace one I've been using for 8 years, and the arm rest part is worn out. I cannot use regular crutches because of arthritis in my hands, but also have an unjoined ulna. They're perfect for what I need.

  84. Arrived within 24 hours of placing my order
    Review by JANET Posted on 27/11/2024
    I placed this rail at the top of the stairs, very solid & safe to hold onto either going up or down the stairs. It is a wide grab rail with a fluted edge grip and so essential for negotiating my stairs. arrived within 24 hours of placing my order.

  85. Perfect rail to hold onto when turning
    Review by JANET Posted on 27/11/2024
    Perfect rail to hold onto when turning 90 degrees on the stairs. Having to use crutches meant I felt safer with one crutch and a rail to grab onto, either pulling me up or pushing down, once round the corner . arrived within 24 hours of order

  86. From an arthritic old lady, Very useful.
    Review by C. MACGOWAN Posted on 27/11/2024
    Good value for money, in use a lot. Bits of paper, plastic aprons and gloves on the floor can be easily picked up (from carers visits!) Very useful tool when you can't bend and are short so can't reach things too far away. Easy to hold because the whole hand can be used. See picture. I don't think it will pick up heavy items and anything too wide will not fit in the grips.

  87. Decent size
    Review by T. Strong Posted on 27/11/2024
    The basket is ideal for my needs but unfortunately the brackets don't fit my scooter. Now looking to adapt them

    Review by M. Mills Posted on 26/11/2024
    A brilliant lightweight walker to support my partner while waiting for a hip op. Being ultra narrow, it is much less obtrusive around the house than the traditional ones. The service and speed of delivery were excellent. Recommended.
