Durable and comfortable
"My wife recently had a stroke and we needed this for our Hoyer lift, it arrived quickly and fit the machine perfectly, it was of good quality and durable enough to washed and last a long time"
Our sling is constructed with a thick, sponge-like padding that provides exceptional comfort, especially during longer transfers. This premium material is also ideal for cooler environments, offering a sense of warmth and security. The ergonomic shape cradles the user, distributing weight evenly to ensure a stable and pleasant experience.
Provide convenient and secure transfer services with a sling designed to make your job easier. The intuitive multi-loop straps allow for quick and repeatable attachments, while reinforced handles (where applicable) offer precise control during positioning. Reduce physical strain and increase your confidence with every lift.
This versatile patient lift sling can be used with most brands and models on the market, including Joerns Hoyer, Drive lifts, Lumex, McKesson, ProActive, and many others.
To ensure patient safety and comfort, operators should be fully familiar with the instructions for their patient lift and use this sling under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.
Cross the leg straps: We have found it is more comfortable for the patient when you cross the leg straps when hooking them to the lift. This provides a more secure, hammock-like support and prevents the legs from spreading too far apart.
No Head Support: Please be aware that this sling is specifically designed for users who have adequate head and neck control. It is not meant to provide head support during the transfer process.

How do I choose the correct size? This seems important.
You are right, it is crucial for safety and comfort. Please carefully review the dimensions in the product image before purchasing: The back width is 36.22 inches and the height is 28.74 inches. We strongly recommend measuring the patient to ensure these dimensions will provide a secure and proper fit.
Does this sling offer head support?
Yes. The tall back height of 28.74 inches is specifically designed to provide full support for the back, shoulders, and head. This makes it an excellent choice for patients who may have limited head and neck control.
What is the best way to use the leg straps?
For optimal comfort and security, we have found that crossing the leg straps before hooking them to the lift provides the best experience. This creates a more secure, hammock-like seat for the patient and helps prevent their legs from spreading too far apart.
Can this sling be used for bathing or showering?
This sling is made from a durable, padded solid polyester fabric designed for maximum comfort during dry transfers (e.g., from a bed to a wheelchair). It is not made of quick-drying mesh. For bathing, we highly recommend our dedicated Mesh Slings.
Is this sling compatible with my Hoyer lift?
Yes, the Achairgo Universal Padded Sling is engineered for broad compatibility. It works seamlessly with most major brands, including Joerns Hoyer, Drive Medical, Lumex, McKesson, and ProActive, that use a 4-point cradle system.

"My wife recently had a stroke and we needed this for our Hoyer lift, it arrived quickly and fit the machine perfectly, it was of good quality and durable enough to washed and last a long time"
"Works great for the purpose of using a comode or handicap shower"
"Great Sling! My mom is tall and this is perfect for getting her up. She sits up great in it."
"This really needs a third row of hooks to allow for patient to be in a better sitting position. Works to mine a person but I prefer a different style for toliet than a hole cut out"
"Very large and easy to use, well assembled and very secure! Would recommend! We bought 2 so we can switch them daily when bathing. The user is secure and safe during transfers and use!"
"The original lift swing was bulky and difficult use, bought this item for a replacement and it light and easy to use."
"It works well if you��re trying to put a patient on the bedside commode. I just suggest buying two so if one becomes dirty, you can wash it but still have one to use."
"Exactly as described. Good quality and sturdy!"
"Excelente producto Muy ��til para maniobrar un paciente Lo recomiendo ampliamente"
"The sling came before my lift arrived, but when I needed it for a fall, it worked well to get the patient moved safely and securely. The straps are generous and strong, and the mesh was good. It is rather large, so I would not use it for a very small patient."
