Only sling that worked well in our situation.
I used this with a motorized lift to move my father (94 years old) around the house.  I transferred him to a small wheel wheelchair because my house is too small to move him in the Hoyer Lift.  This was the only sling I could easily put around him while he was sitting on the sofa.  I didn't have to lift him to put him in the sling.  My father was just too heavy to lift without the Hoyer so this sling made it practical to move him safely and relatively easily.  I got two slings with the Hoyer but I had to lift him physically to get him into them.  I'm in my late 60s so that just wasn't going to work.  This one was much more useful.  If you follow the directions that come with it, and watch some of the (many) videos on Youtube on how to use a Hoyer lift you should do OK.  None of this is fun or simple but in some cases it is necessary.  How did he like it?  Well, not so much at first, but my sister pointed out that it was't much different from the Coney Island parachute ride of his childhood and he actually got to like it.  The transfer to and from the chair took some practice, but it got to be a routine.  You are lucky if you have a big house and NO carpets!
