Question 1

What are the width and depth dimensions of this lift?

Accepted Answer

Hi Marie, The dimensions are about 17" wide and 19" deep. I say about as there is a slight curvature to the seat.  We use it in a recliner which is very roomy, so we have to do some adapting. You will sit higher on the lift which makes the arms, if you depend on them, low, so we use some pillows. We also push the base of he lift into the crack at the back of the seat. If you are struggling to get someone on their feet or wanting to use it as a tool for maintaining independence we recommend it. My husband has a problem getting on his feet and at times can be almost a dead weight. Without this I don't know what I would do!!

Question 2

HI, would this work after knee replacement?  Thanks

Accepted Answer

I can not see why it wouldn't work after knee replacement.  I am not a medical doctor but I do enjoy having this available for traveling and in situations where furniture is extremely low.  I do recommend that you be careful when first using it as it may move faster then you expect.

Question 3

I received this today for my mom). Following the instructions, it does not open more than about 2".  Any advice? I don't want to force it.

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately I can't remember exactly how.  I will try take a look this evening.  I think the previous answer is correct.  If I remember correctly, I forced the seat down several times before the spring was activated/able to work.  I think there is a release bar the trigger by pressing to down firmly

Question 4

What weight range will it accommodate? my mother is 110 lbs.

Accepted Answer

I got it for my mother who weighs 124. I could not adjust it so that it would go down when she sat on it. Looking at the previous answer, we have the wrong model.
