This aid is an answer to a prayer…
After searching for months for an aid to move my husband from chair to wheelchair, etc., I have found it! He has upper body strength but his legs are very weak secondary to a brain injury. He easily pulls himself up and holds on to the handle while I pivot him 90 degrees. It’s easy for him and my back hasn’t felt this good in a year since I’m no longer having to hold him up while transferring. I showed and demonstrated the aid to my husband’s PT who was unaware of such a device. He couldn’t believe how EASY and SAFELY I could transfer my husband! He shared the info with his colleagues who were equally as impressed with it. My husband’s PT and I agreed we do not need PT at this time due to this device.The aid is very, very sturdy and of exceptional quality. I easily transport it so I can use it anywhere.

Lifesaver for caregivers!
I am not one to write reviews but wanted to share: It may be a little pricey but it is worth every penny for it surely helps to take care of someone with mobility issues. As long as the person can pull up and lean forward a little bit as you stand opposite them, you can easily swivel them and safely transfer them to bed, chair or toilet. The disc which you step on is grooved and makes it easy to tell the person where to place their feet. The knee pads are soft and they are adjustable so you can make it the right position for the person’s knees as the pads help them to lean forward comfortably. Other sit-to-stand devices I looked at were too big and cumbersome so I was blessed to have seen this pop up when on Amazon. If it wasn’t for this device, my family probably would have had to place me in a personal care home. So, although it is almost $400, it is priceless to me and my caregivers.

Excellent transfer aid for person with upper body strength
My 95 year old mother had trouble standing and pivoting. I used the Etac Turner Pro to help her transfer to and from her wheelchair to the stairlift. I wish I was aware of this product earlier! The product is very sturdy and easy to use as long as the person being transferred has enough upper arm strength to pull up to a standing position. While there are few parts to assemble, assembly was challenging because the knee rests did not slide onto the pole easily.

Back-saver
Overall good and sturdy. Saved on our backs and made transfers generally safer. Would have taken 2 people otherwise. Works as it should. Few problems- the knee stabilizer flips, which was unnerving for my mom, and the handle height adjuster gave way a few times. It is adjustable for high or lower with a tightener knob to keep it there, but even through wrenched on by a strong guy, it still gave way a few times. There is a retractable button also (like what you find on commodes or walkers to adjust the height) but it only engages when in the highest position. There are no other holes for adjustment. If I needed to use this item longer, we were going to drill our own holes, but it is no longer needed. Seems that an item this expensive should not need to be jimmy-rigged.

The best piece of equipment I bought to help with mobility. FIVE stars!!
I bought this miraculous device to help me move my tall and substantial 96 year old father from Bed to wheelchair and wheelchair to recliner. I was easily able to balance the device with a little weight on one toe while turning him with very little effort. The device is substantial and my dad felt confident standing on it. I wish I had found this item years earlier – it would have saved my back a lot of wear and tear! I highly recommend this ‘lazy Susan’ as we called it, to anyone caring for a person of limited mobility. They do need to be able to pull themselves to standing and hold on to the top handle for the duration of turning – only a few seconds. I can’t recommend this aid highly enough!

Shipped a defective, returned item
This product works very well (if you buy it at full price from mobility/assistive devices retailer).Amazon shipped a previously returned, defective device – twice. The original box was put into an Amazon shipping container to resell despite the return and reasons for it. We could not assemble either device. Purchased a third item from The Wright Stuff and assembled it in no time at all.

Great product!
This works great! We have been using it for about a week with no problems. It is sturdy and well made. The patient must be able to grip the handle and bear weight on their legs.
