Ibought it to help a patient stand up so he could get on scale. I understand we were not using it for intended purpose but I thought we would be able to pull down on the handle and be able to stand up. Unfortunately the height of the unit even maximally adjusted is still too low for him to pull himself up and use leverage in his arms and elbows to do that. He was however was able to roll his wheelchair underneath the trapeze and then grab on to the cross member which holds main support of the trapeze. He was then able to pull himself up using the cross member to stand up.
The unit is well built for its intended purpose and we were able to use it to stand up with it. The good feature he is because of the design with the legs coming toward the trapeze that he could grab on to the cross member at the base on the trapeze support and pull himself up without worrying about it tipping over on it because of the design of the legs.
