For use when someone cannot stoop?

Yes, for people who have limited mobility, are wheelchair bound, have bad back problems. Also can be used to extend reach for elevated objects.

I am suffering from severe sciatica and most times find it very painful to bend or stoop. I love my Grip and Grab for picking up al those socks and other items I routinely drop in my day. It can pick up even tiny items.

I have lower back spine surgery and problems with bending. I use this mostly outside to pick things up in the yard. No doubt it would also help in the house to get out items from lower cabinets I would think. It grips very well. However, if you have problems with squeezing your hands to use the handles at the top, not sure this would help. I love mine and my husband got one as well.

Yes, I think it's designed for people who cannot stoop. It grips well. It could pick up trash off the ground, a pencil, piece of paper, etc. I use it to fetch cat toys left under the refrigerator, bookshelf, and couch all the time. It works so well sometimes I grab yucky stuff I didn't mean to like old macaroni under the stove. It also stands upright fairly well. I keep mine standing beside the fridge and out of sight when not in use.

These have a good long reach and can be used to pick up smaller items as the tips are rubber. You can use them if you have trouble bending down or stooping but be careful of the weight of the item you want to grasp. Don't try to lift more than your arms will allow you without damaging muscles.

I don't think it can hold a lot of weight (maybe 40lbs). Mostly prevents roll outs, visual barrier. High enough so they don't attempt to climb over if they are impaired.

We have hauled taller items that required only having part of the bed open. We found this works better when you secure the open sections - with a bungee or other cord - to minimize those sections being affected by turbulence while driving.

It would probably keep feet from hanging in mid-air, and help with constipation. I'd suggest the higher model for little ones.

It definitely needs some kind of support. It is NOT designed to be free standing.

It would probably keep someone from rolling out of bed when sleeping. But when my 120-pound father used them to help him get up, he said they were too wobbly. He went back to the shorter, more sturdy rail even though it didn't extend. I don't know whether a heavier person would actually bend the rails, but I think it wouldn't provide the best support for standing if that's your question.

Helps swivel from sitting on the bed side to lying in bed. Good for heavy immobile people who cannot get themselves into bed, ie can only just about stand and shuffle from chair to bed.

I don't think this is supposed to be used with wheels as it might slip away when the person is trying to sit on it

Not really. You could rest them on the bar at the top, stabilizing the item(s) while you descend or mount. I usu have someone hand me heavy items once I am up on the ladder or hand things down to someone.

No, the hooks are not strong enough and if you are going to use it for that the persons weight is a big influence. I bought for exiting a second floor in case of an emergency. I recommend you purchase the more heavy duty ones for climbing. I hope this helps.

The person we bought this for has it hanging from their walker so they don't rush to get to the phone. I guess it would be good with a wheelchair too. Basically any situation where you don't want someone rushing and potentially getting hurt.

It can be used like a cane so the airlines may allow it. It is a low mend and not a confident balance at first...but for an urgent sit it does the trick.

You could also put tubes on a flat surface & wrap a towel around them - to help them stay up. Works for a lot of people.

There is a loop at the top you can use...if you can use a hook too, if you choose.

If the seat is not strapped to something when you lean back your tip all away over.you could use it for that but you'll have to maintain your balance you couldn't lean all the way back

The unit is Stiff & is met to be used while the body is at rest. However, I see no reason why you couldn't use if on the job, It's just up to you.

Can be operated by one person lifting another. The person being lifted would not be able to operate it.
