39'' Long Leg Lifter, Rigid Strap for Knee & Hip Replacement Recovery, Orange Aluminum & Nylon, Helps Independent Movement in Bed, Bath, Vehicle & Wheelchair

I got plenty of advice from friends and family about my upcoming hip replacement surgery, so i knew i should get a few helpful gadgets for getting around afterwards. This lifting strap is the best invention ever for post-surgery!!! I checked out a bunch before settling on this one. The straight piece at the bottom of the foot loop is very helpful to keep the loop open when trying to slip it over your foot. The handles along the strap make it easy to hold as you lift your leg up. The best part is kind of hard to describe, but its not just a floppy canvas strap. It can be held out straight, it holds its shape like its a stick, or it can be bent as needed. i hooked it around my neck sometimes to take it from room to room as i hobbled along with the walker. And being able to keep it straight was also very helpful when trying to get your foot in the loop. I used it to get my leg up into bed, up onto the couch, and in and out of the car. This simple gadget is absolutely essential for recovering from hip surgery and probably knee surgery as well. Get it, you will be glad you did!

Helped me after my total knee replacement, especially getting into bed.
