    Review by JaneMLLM Posted on 28/10/2026
    This mat provides stability and comfort in the bath. It has a hanging loop to assist with drying. I felt much more secure when getting in and out of the bath with my husband's help. He tried the mat in the shower and said it was very good.

  16. Polyurethane Moulded Shower Stool - Wide
    Polyurethane Moulded Shower Stool - Wide
    Review by M. Julie Pearson Posted on 28/10/2026
    I have had to replace my bath for a walk in shower. My mobility is limited now and prevents me from climbing into a bath. This is a good sturdy chair with plenty of seat room for my more than ample body, ha ha. I recommend this chair for anyone who needs a chair in their shower!

  17. Tubular Slide Sheet (720 x 700mm)
    Life and Sanity Saver
    Review by M. Andrea Ufton Posted on 28/10/2026
    The difference this tubular sheet has made to my post hip replacement recovery has been a life saver. I would highly recommend to anyone going for a hip replacement to buy this sheet to use straight the way when home - I waited a week to buy one and this was a mistake as it would have made transferring onto the bed/sofa so much easier and less painful. The price is wonderful too.

  24. Alerta Overbed Table (Walnut, with Castors)
    Nice, Solid Table
    Review by K. Donnelly Posted on 27/10/2026
    After using Essential Aids for various products recently, I'm very happy indeed. As well as great & quick service their products are of good quality, including this overbed table. Bit of a pain adding the castors, aside from that it's a great table and being used to hold a big box of mum's chocolates, treats, sweets and so on. Very happy customer.

  25. Deluxe Attendant Propelled Wheelchair (18 inch seat width)
    Lightweight transit chair
    Review by NW Posted on 27/10/2026
    I’ve been looking for a wheelchair to take my Mum out and found this one. Excellent delivery and comms and it arrived as specified. Lifted it out the box (and the weight is quite manageable) and it was ready to go! Very impressed with it- padded seat and back, good brakes, lightweight-well worth the money. Excellent choice. Mum loves it. Thankyou.

  26. Original Tilting Wedge Seat
    Just the job.
    Review by M. Gotts Posted on 27/10/2026
    At first I thought this is way too high but although 2inches higher than my normal one it’s pretty spot on. A change in car I needed a little more height an extra inch would have done it but I’m very pleased. My spine is much shorter than it was …so thank goodness for such aids.

  27. Bidet Bowl
    Delivered quickly
    Review by L. Godden Posted on 27/10/2026

  28. Steel Grab Rails (Length: 300 mm (12inch))
    Neat handle
    Review by D. Board Posted on 27/10/2026
    These handles are a compact design and look better than others. They stand off from the mounting surface giving adequate clearance to get your fingers behind, allowing a good purchase and comfortable grip on the cylindrical profile.

    Step for front door.
    Review by S. MacFall Posted on 27/10/2026

  32. Handy Cup (Transparent Pack of 3)
    Handy Cup Transparent Pack of 3
    Review by N. Mellor Posted on 27/10/2026
    My 82 year old wife is in the final stages of Alzheimer's and also has mild Dystonia which restricts her neck movement and she therefore has difficulty drinking from a vertical nursing cup. The Handy Cup solves her problem as she is able to hold it in both hands and the angled profile allows her to drink comfortably without spillage while the clear material of which the cup is formed enables us all to easily identify the contents at a glance. This product is robust, leakproof and Dishwasher friendly ensuring ongoing hygiene. Her Nursing Home staff are extremely impressed with the product and are considering standardising their drinking vessels with this one going forward. Thank You Essential Aids.

    I can often be a large but some stores differ in sizes. I went with a large and they are a perfect fit, with plenty of room. They are comfortable and for sensitive skin which is a bonus. Perfect for day wear as you hardly notice them through my skinny jeans. So gives me more confidence. Will be buying again.

    Amazing
    Review by E. McGee Posted on 26/10/2026
    As a sufferer of rhuematoid arthitis I'd given up cooking due to not being able to prepare food, due to standard knives, sore & dangerous to use. I got my chef knife last week and initially thought it's enormous but it has changed my life. I'm now chopping & cooking again and more important, I've got some independence back.

    Something to think about
    Review by J. Eves Posted on 25/10/2026
    Bought to protect my sofas with a loved one living with dementia. I feel they could also be on sale larger for sofas , seems ok on chairs. Also more colours as if not the same colour it caused conflict . I have only started using these . Already one in the wash .

    Superb magnifying glass.
    Review by D. Barber Posted on 24/10/2026
    Great clarification and very light to hold. Very pleased with the product, although the extra magnification little hole does seem pointless. But as I don't need that anyway, it does not detract at all from my rating.

  86. Flexyfoot Carbon Fibre Comfort Grip Folding Crutches (Black - Pair)
    Lightweight and comfortable
    Review by Dave S Posted on 21/10/2026
    These are an excellent set of folding crutches which are exceptionally lightweight. Build quality is excellent. The comfort design has pros and cons. They are comfortable but the left and right have to be used with only the left and right arms respectively due to the grip design. Whilst I imagine this contributes to comfort, it can be annoying when you pick them up and find you have matched them to the wrong arms. I would prefer a plain rounded grip personally so they are interchangeable. They certainly do the job though and are a quality product and therefore decent value.

  87. Flexyfoot Crutch Ferrule - Grey (19mm - Pack of 4)

    Review by Dave S Posted on 21/10/2026
    I personally would have preferred a plain rounded grip, as I doubt it would have any adverse impact on comfort. They certainly do the job though and are a quality product and therefore decent value.
