39 Inch Long Leg Lifter Strap with Padded Handgrips and Foot Loop,Rigid Leg Lifter Hip&Knee Replacement Surgery Recovery Kit,Mobility Aids Tool Foot Lifter Easily Get in and Out of Bed,Car,Wheelchair

While preparing for total knee replacement surgery, I learned that a leg lifter strap would be good to have on hand. So, I did a quick Amazon search and picked one that had decent reviews and was reasonably priced. All I can say is that the HOOMTREE "43 Inches Long Leg Lifter Strap with Padded Handgrips and Foot Loop..." surpassed my expectations so much that I felt compelled to add yet another positive review.The strap material is heavy-duty and sewn well, and the pads are very nice. There is a long bendable metal piece that runs the length of the strap and a foot opening that easily stays open. These characteristics minimize any "fishing" required to get your foot in. It is easy to use, and I have much confidence in my ability to safely lift my right leg on and off stools, couches, beds, etc.In my preparation I bought a 2nd strap of a different brand (covering my bases!) to keep a spare in another room or the car. While it is adequate, it is nowhere near as nice as the HOOMTREE strap. Wish I had gotten 2 HOOMTREE straps!

I broke my patella. 18 days of struggle and pain in a leg stabilizer brace before surgery, all the while losing muscle. Since surgery I am doing better. The occupational therapist suggested one of these, because I was unable to lift my own leg to get in or out of bed. Made a huge instant difference. I saw no guide for choosing the length, but since I am short, 5’3”, chose the shorter length tool. It works well. Until I regain strength as the bone heals, this tool is at my bedside ready for me to use. Now, after first two weeks out of surgery the pain is decreased to the point I can use gravity to lower the leg while supported under the ankle by the good leg. Prior to and right after surgery the pain in the kneecap was so intense I could barely tolerate any movement of leg even if the knee did not move. My advice, get this tool to aid yourself and thus control that pain level. Or even better, don’t fall on concrete and break your patella in the first place.Added info after a week of use. I found I can comfortably keep this hooked over the foot while sleeping to facilitate getting up in the night. I don’t even notice it.

Good tool to have . The extra hoops allowed me to lift my leg comfortably rather than just grabbing a strap. Price is no bad d at all. I received a strap from the hospital but only had the handle at the top so I used the one I purchased instead as it was easier to use

After knee surgery i couldn't raise my leg up on the bed by myself. Was upsetting that I had to wake my husband up in the middle of the night to lift my leg. This didn’t work for me but it probably would work for people who could bend their knee. I ended up getting a thigh leg lifter that I was able to use for my problem.

Just had a total knee replacement and this leg lifter is awesome. I thought it would make my leg hurt more, but just the opposite. Getting into bed last night and out of it was very easy. It hurt more to use my good leg under the surgical one. This is the 39” length and I love that it is ridged yet bendable with the metal band in it. So you can fold it to travel with it. Or as I did leave it straight right next to me in bed.

Just had a total knee replacement on 4/23 was having trouble getting comfy and in/ out of chair and bed. This was THE best 10 bucks I ever spent. Makes my life soooo much easier. Helps me with my exercises as well. I HIGHLY recommend this if you have mobility issues after surgery.

Very well made and it was a life saver for my total hip surgery. Without it I would have not been able to be independent.

The pink color is nice, but I don't get how I'm supposed to use this.
