Much easier to slide from my wheelchair to the car seat by K. Hulstrom
This transfer board has made my life so much easier. I can't stand or walk, so getting in and out of my car was difficult. Now it is so much easier to slide from my wheelchair to the car seat using the short board.

Fantastic Male Non-Spill Urinal by Michael Staite
I have a balance problem so I need to use a urinal at night. The Ursec male urinal is an absolute godsend, foolproof to use, easy to locate in the dark, has no risk of drops on the carpet, and is completely non-spill.
The cost is more than many other urinals but the investment is well worth it! This is my second Ursec and I couldn't be more delighted!

Perfect bath seat by M. Brogan
This bath seat/stool does exactly what it says on the tin! Perfect size for the bath and very sturdy for sitting on (I bought the 12 inch height) . When not in use it is small enough to be unobtrusive elsewhere in the bathroom even in a small room which mine is. I can't fault this product.

Useful by Frances
I bought this stick to enable balance when gardening in the middle of the border. Stepping across and around large plants to weed and plant with
an ordinary walking stick does not give the stability of this product. I
recommend it to anyone with balance issues who insists on continuing to garden.

Practical & useful too by L. Lynch
Originally purchased in case it was suitable for use with a bariatric commode, but it was too small for the runners. I was about to return it, then realised it was very suitable for many other uses eg. soaking soiled clothing, and taking veggie waste to the compost heap etc.

Very happy with this very stable and tall stool by E. Goodall
Very happy with this very stable and tall stool. I bought it to take on holiday, particularly because it is the tallest one I could find. I am very pleased with its its robust design, even when fully extended. A pity it does not fold down, for packing in the car, but it is the best portable one I have found for a tall person.

Extremely pleased by E. Grady
Extremely pleased with my new pillow. It came recommended by my physiotherapist and he told me the correct pillow to buy for my specific needs ( neck and upper back problems). I could feel the difference from day one - very beneficial. I thought I would struggle with this type of pillow asi tend to sleep on my front but it does help me sleep on my side which I understand is better. Highly recommend.

Safety lap strap by C. Tait
This belt was so much better quality than the one on my chair, I have only had my chair for a few months but the belt fastener had broken and the belt was too long ad could not adjust small enough.. Hubby had to adjust new one by cutting the new belt at the back in half, folding the two ends and fitting at the sides of the chair, really comfortable when adjusted to my size. Great Granny.

Replacement sponges by Patricia Pirozzi
I am pleased with this lotion applicator. It has a nice soft sponge, good for sensitive or damaged skin, and the handle is at a good angle for reaching the awkward parts of the back. Also, it is not so long as some I have tried, which can become quite unwieldly, and it is easy to handle.

As I lack a degree of mobility, I struggle to put on my

Toilet seat higherer by J ryan
I have spinal stenosis. I wasn't going to have toilet aid. Ego? Maybe. After really bad flare up I had a toilet frame. It helped, but my toilet was still to low. In desperation I ordered this seat higherer. CHANGED MY LIFE. Best thing ever.it is just placed on toilet.fits perfectly. If I have visitors just lift it off. If I could travel,I could take it with me. I'm delighted.im hurting much less. The firm are great to. They are very helpful. Don't suffer, get one.

Folding Commode - Suits us fine by Replacement hip operation person
My husband is about to have a replacement hip operation and though we realise he will be encouraged to walk up and downstairs very soon after- our stairs are deep and steep between the toilet on the first floor and the sitting room on the ground floor and we thought keeping that folding commode downstairs for emergencies would be sensible. It folds easily and close together and is covered neatly by a large black bin bag under our stairs and it was a very reasonable price. What not to like even if it’s not in use for long?

Helpful by Ann
Found this item helpful in putting on socks as osteoarthritis in my hip and knee made it impossible to lift my right leg up enough to reach my foot properly. The item works but could be smaller and more flexible - perhaps offer two size options for customer choice.
