I am looking at a 4 in 1 split seat transfer chair with sling attachment hydraulic, does anyone have experience with this?

To use for Alzheimer's patient when no longer able to walk

Okay I watched the video that was in the link and I'm leery of this product, it looks very awkward for the patient, not terribly sturdy and is not significantly less expensive than the more conventional sling lifts (such as Hoyer lifts).

I'm coming back to add - I think that when we are purchasing expensive products such as this it is better to work with local occupational and physical therapists and equipment suppliers, not only are they able to recommend products that suit your individual needs they are there for you if something goes wrong, they also can guide you on how to apply for any benefits that may be available to cover some or all of the costs.
