I can only turn one direction. Would need take out of shower, then bring back in so I could face backward to get out. hand weakness how easy to lift

It is very lightweight you should be able to lift it with one hand. It only weighs 3 1/2 pounds. I am sure this will work for you.

It has no handles to speak of, but there are drainage holes in the seat that you can stick a finger through to get enough of a grip to lift it. It's either that or you can also grab the seat edge or the top of one of the legs for the same purpose. In addition, note that, according to the specifications, the stool weighs 3.5 lbs., so you also have to take into consideration whether you're capable of lifting that amount of weight.

It is a little awkward to keep rolling out of the way. I put a desk over it and there are no handles at the end to do the lifting. I would also have to unplug it to keep moving it, because of where my plug is located. Hope that helps!

Yes, it definitely gets easier. Pulling straight up seems to work best. Turning the stem clockwise a little also works for me.

The 1st time it wasn't as easy as I would have thought. Try lifting one side out 1st, then the other. You should be able to do it just with you fingers, but if it gives you any trouble use a small flat screwdriver and it should come right out. Then you really should be able to pull it out whenever you need it. Hope this helps!

Yes, either hand will work! When you use wiggle side to side as you move along the coconut. It will make it easier. It will be a breeze for a man, a woman its a little tougher, but I'm not as strong as i used to be. :)

Damgto is right, just lift the board. Flipping it over is a pain. I've been doing it 30 years.

Not so much, I admit it depends heavily on your arm strength but I didn't have any trouble. If you feel too heavy you can squeeze some water anyway.

Mom only takes showers but she and I both think you could use it to pull yourself out. It is quite secure.. You might want to make sure you have installed it so when sitting you can grab it with your strongest, dominant arm.

Since there is a lock only on one side (like to lock the bathroom door) when you want to reverse it, the handle will be up instead of down. I think you have to get the right or left one.

I have a fiberglass shower tub one piece unit, I have mine on my left side. It is on the shower unit wall. I do understand what you mean about stability getting in and out. Follow the direction that came with the Super Grip Suction Handle. It is to balance you and not to take the weight. I do not shower without it. Before you get into the tub, make sure it is secured on a smooth surface.

YD is right. First push the body forward to take the pressure off the handle release switch. Then step on the handle release (a toe won't work unless you have bionic toes), and gently pull the body back. Works every time for me.

Just lift with your fingers just under the edge on opposite sides. It has to be on opposite sides, or it won't come out.

A little, yes. To hold onto the bar, you are slightly slumped forward. What I do is place one hand on the wall so that I can stand up straight.

You will want to slide it forward and pick it up with one hand behind it and one in front. It should be rather easy to lift.

Boy, do I have the same problem. Did you ever figure this out? I'm afraid to push too hard. Do you go right to left?
