Top Quality Product
Review by Izzy H Posted on 21/11/2024This chair is fantastic. Everything about it is excellent: the design, the quality and the finish. I was so pleased to find a chair as narrow as this, the doorways in our house are narrow and I didn't think there would be one to fit. This chair is sturdy and stylish, it has given me exactly what I need. The speed of delivery and service from Essential Aids has also been faultless. I cannot recommend them or their products highly enough!

Indispensable tool for Independence
Review by Susie B Posted on 19/11/2024I live alone in a bungalow. Found myself needing to use a walker after a knee operation.

A meal easily transported when lid on, & the indispensable cuppa moved with ease when using the plastic insert. Thank you Chris Buckingham! 🌺

Strong rail

Stroke survivor liked these
Review by E. Huczek Posted on 16/11/2024The cutlery looks well made and the thumb pads on the knife and fork were well appreciated. The only feedback from the user was that the spoon handle was a bit slippery when in use. I think that's because the hand grip strength following the stroke is really dimished. We can sort this. So, all in all, though, a good purchase.

Elbow crutches
Review by S. Featherstone Posted on 14/11/2024These crutches came quickly which was needed. They are sturdy and very easy to adjust with arthritic hands. These were quite a bit cheaper than other makes, they adjust for body height and elbow height, some other makes have fixed elbow height. These also fully enclosed your arm above the elbow whereas some only have a back rest which means they are not as safe. A very well made and well priced product.

Comfortable and supportive
Review by H. Slade Posted on 08/11/2024I have used a similar product in the past, as I have a habit of spraining my ankle. This time I actually fractured it and found these wraps on-line as my old ones are really past their best. This is slightly different as it has a fixed loop around the foot which I thought might be awkward, but I managed OK. very comfortable and supportive without being bulky.

Out door grab rail
Review by Bill Posted on 05/11/2024Needed for brick wall by back door (vertical fixing). We’re all getting older! Haven’t put up yet as waiting for screws and plugs (ordered elsewhere). Slightly surprising they only have 2 screw holes per fixing point whereas bathroom grab rails have 5.

Good Quality Half Step
Review by J.D. Posted on 05/11/2024This product is a good quality half step primarily for outdoor use to reduce the step height of exiting door thresholds. It has a sturdy corrosion free plastic design and construction with an anti-slip rubber top mat. The step is easy to assemble with adjustable feet. The product supplied was an all black design rather than the grey and black shown in the photo.

Excellent buy
Review by j. cole Posted on 04/11/2024I had some equipment from the NHS after a month in hospital but did not feel confident in the night time bathroom trips without some support. This is just the job, easy to put together and provides support and balance when needed. It is next to the shower so acts as a balancer whilst drying toes! Excellent price and service. Will return to this company if I need further items.

Good Grip eating utensils
Review by RingwoodG Posted on 03/11/2024Having already purchased the Good Grip serrated knife for my 102 year old mother, with arthritis and poor grip in her hands, she decided that it would be beneficial to buy the fork and spoon. These have all been a great help to her and would recommend these products which are great aids.

A great step
Review by krissi Posted on 02/11/2024Thankfully bought a very study and well made product that I have confidence in in stepping onto . Previously bought cheap step form other retailers that gave way and failed. As they say you get what you pay for and I.m glad I paid for this step.

Light weight foldable shower stool
Review by A. Westley Posted on 02/11/2024I’m really happy with this stool. It’s lightweight so easy to rinse off any soap suds preventing buildup of soap scum. Folds easy so it can be removed when others use the shower. Since having my wet room I’ve tried 3 others stools and this one is by far the best

Walking aids
Review by H. Keen Posted on 30/10/2024I think these will take time to get used to. It’s case to getting used to taking the weight in your elbows rather than your hands. I have arthritic hands so I really need this design. I’m still practicing. Am quite tall. I think a shorter person would find them easier.
-

Light, comfortable and warm
Review by P. Kelley Posted on 29/10/2024I bought these bed socks for my cousin who is 95. She is mostly confined to bed but can be hoisted into a reclining chair which is when the bed socks are ideal. Light, comfortable and warm the velcro fastenings mean they stay in place without applying pressure.
