Product Description

The UPEASY manual lifting cushion provides up to 80% lift assist for users who otherwise would need help getting up from a seated position. Equipped with an hydraulic lifting mechanism, no electricity is required for operation. Users choose the model appropriate for their weight. Before use, the lifting mechanism must also be set in the most appropriate weight slot. The patented cushion design ensures a flat lifting surface while rising. Weighing only 10 lb. (4.5 kg), UPEASY can be closed and easily carried using the built-in handle. Adds about 1 ½" to seat height when seated. Easy care, the cover can be machine washed, and the coated foam cushion cleaned with mild detergent. UPEASY Lifting Cushion comes with Marine Blue washable cover and high-density foam cushion

UPLIFT UPEASY CUSHION - Waste of Money
This item is totally uncomfortable to sit on and makes your back ache horribly. Also it does not work well at all. If you have difficulty rising from a seated positon this item will not help in the least. Many times it stays flat and when it does "rise" it only occurs after you push up yourself with your arms and legs. I would have returned the item, but I left it for my mother when I had to be out of town for a few weeks and by the time I returned my 30 day window was closed. DO NOT BUY, you will regret it if you do. I won't even put this item in a yard sale, because I would not subject anyone to false hope and a back ache to go along with it.

Works, but not very comfortable
I bought this product for my mom. It did help her tremendously with sitting and standing.
However, it was too uncomfortable for her to sit on so I ended up returning it.
Also, it does not work well on sofas. It needs a very solid firm surface in order to work properly. If used on a soft sofa, it wobbles and tilts and could be a bit dangerous for her.
