The ResQUp Fall Recovery and Mobility Aid: Self Help for Wheelchair Users, Patient Lift and Transfer Assistance, Get Up from Floor to Sit/Stand, Made in USA, FDA Listed Medical Device (Graystone)

This product is very well built. Very easy for me to use.Unfortunately, the steps are not deep enough for a person of size to use.I am returning it for this reason.

Expensive, but much cheaper than an ambulance, possibly breaking down your front door, doctor bills and lengthy tests. I was down for over seven hours after a fall. I wasn't near a phone ( I now wear a Medical Alert System). With each passing hour I got weaker. Sometimes going into and out of shock. I had a lot of time to think of what would work. These ResQup stairs are great and are wide enough to scoot up to a seated position to standing. That's the time to self treat for shock by lying down covering up and drinking electrolytes until a loved one, caregiver or emergency services get there. By the way I'm not Matt. I'm his mom. The only other thing I would suggest is a furniture dolly that is wide enough long enough and would hold the weight of your torso and head. That is not over 3 inches tall that you could roll over onto your back. Then propel yourself by using your feet to another room where your ResQup stairs await you. Don't laugh, the energy you use trying to scoot yourself any other way is prohibitive and exasperating the problem. Thanks to the doctor for inventing this product. If anything else it gives you peace of mind.

We bought this to help my aging father get himself off the floor and back on his bed. However he's not got the muscle power to get up the "flight" of stair steps. So it did not work for us.But the product is well constructed and easy to set up.

The ResQUp has become a valuable tool when I do work around my house. Being in a wheelchair one of the challenges when you transfer to the ground onto a smooth surface is not having your feet slip from underneath you when you’re trying to transfer back up. The ResQUp has eliminated this as a problem. Now when I’m done working from the floor all I need to do is pull up my ResQUp. Open it, transfer to the first then to the second and the third step and then into my chair. No longer needing to worry if my feet are slipping underneath me and fearing that I will fall. I highly recommend this tool for active wheelchair users you won’t regret it five stars!

Bought this just in case my dad fell, he did and we finally used this. It worked well enough for him getting to his wheelchair. It's not sturdy enough for heavier folks, so I'd only recommend this for lightweight folks (my dad is only 160 lbs). Not good value for the money BUT when your folks fall down you'll regret not having bought this. Of note, it's sturdier on the side edges so try to put pressure there instead of the soft middle. Also kneeling on this isn't recommended, I can see it breaking if you do. Manual also states to not use as foot stool.

Fortunately, I have not had a fall since purchasing this, but I was impressed with the design and expect it to work well.

I'm not that heavy that it could be my fault but when I fell the other night and tried to use it, going from the middle step to the top step it broke and trapped me within it at a 45 degree angle as if I was in a bear trap. Very painful and took way long to get out despite my very strong son trying to release me. Added a bunch of bruising. My son was so mad he hurt his foot kicking it. I want my $400 back. This thing is firewood worthy now.

My husband falls inside our home periodically. It would take over an hour or calling someone (with strength) to come over and help get him up off the floor. I bought him the ResQup for Christmas. He was not happy with my purchase because it was pricey and looked a little cheaply made in the pictures. However, the first time he fell after Christmas, all was forgiven. Though not perfect - I was able to help him up onto a chair within about 10 minutes. A first for us. This device is sturdier than it appears, and stores easily. It will give us more time to enjoy in our home without outside assistance.
