Take-A-Long Portable Folding Lift Overview
The Take-A-Long Lift is a compact electric patient lift with a unique foldable design that makes storage easy for people with limited space at home or in the car. Despite its small size, it's powerful enough to easily carry a person weighing up to 400 pounds from the floor to the bed. The Take-A-Long's lightweight and low profile make it easy to navigate through narrow spaces and small rooms. As a battery-operated lift, it has a low-battery warning alarm and an overload indicator that alerts the caregiver that the weight capacity has been exceeded. Rear locking casters keep the machine safely in place when lowering or lifting a patient, and an emergency stop button provides an additional safety mechanism.
