Delivery was quick and set-up was easy. After owning this for only 2 weeks, we had to use the lift to get dad off the bathroom floor. It worked great and I'm so thankful I didn't strain my back this time! My only wish is that it was safe to move him a few feet while he's sitting on the IndeeLift so it would be easier to transfer him back to his wheelchair. The tight quarters in the bathroom made it impossible to have both items in there at the same time. D
9/15/2022 Response: Based on your comments we reached out to IndeeLift to ask about moving a fallen person with the HFL-300/400. IndeeLift indicated that based on business liability concerns, the HFL 300/400 is not recommended for transport, however the HFL-300/400 can be transport a patient a short distance in an emergency situation. If used for a short distance transfer, the seat platform should be between 6 and 12 inches from the floor. With the seat at 6-12", the patient weight will shift primarily to the wheels and will be easy to transport by an adult. IndeeLift made it very clear to NOT move a patient with the seat height at the full height of 21". With the seat at 21", the weight of the patient will be shifted to the transport handles and create a great strain on the care provider.
