Uplift Seat Assist

The Uplift Seat Assist is a self-powered lifting cushion that assists you gently up and down from any armchair or sofa. This gentle action relieves stress and strain on painful joints, and eliminates the need to "rock" out of your seat. Even those of you who currently need "a pull" to get up can rest assured you won't any longer: Uplift is strong enough to lift 80% of your weight. The lifting action is provided by a hydro-pneumatic piston that activates slowly as you begin to stand. There are no switches or levers, and no batteries are required. The Uplift is great for stroke survivors and those with limited strength or dexterity.

You can use Uplift Seat Assist almost anywhere in your home, but is especially helpful in the kitchen, dining and living rooms. It is easy to use and only takes seconds to adjust to your correct weight setting.
