  1. NHS Walking Stick (Standard)
    Happy customer
    Review by F. Mcintyre Posted on 20/06/2025
    This is a superb walking stick for the money. I'd solid construction give me confidence when walking, and I'm 14st. I've bought other cheap sticks online and they haven't been fit for purpose. This on the other hand should lasted years. And a great service from essential aids, thank you.

  2. Drive AstroLite Mobility Scooter (Black 17Ah)
    Astrolite Scooter.
    Review by J. Baker Posted on 18/06/2025
    We looked at plenty of scooters, cheaper and dearer but after trying them all fell for the Astrolite. With not much trouble will fit in the boot easily and because it has springs it is a nice ride.

  3. Freehand Tray With Non-Slip Mat
    Brilliant
    Review by L Posted on 18/06/2025
    The tray is well balanced, and seems very robust. I bought the tray for my 91 year old father who has recently started relying on a walking stick to get around his flat. He now only has to make one trip between rooms, instead of several, saving him a lot of effort and energy.

    Review by N. Hedgcock Posted on 14/06/2025
    I have recently bought a large key safe and I have to say all good easy to install and programme the security code which I can change should I wish.

    Narrows down well to go through doorways
    Review by J. Meadows Posted on 14/06/2025
    Easy to use as it folds very easily, but outside have to be careful as with only the one front wheel can be unstable compared to the four wheeled version which is much heavier and not so easy to move about.

  26. Nitro Rollator (Red)
    Great product!
    Review by S. Gough Posted on 14/06/2025
    This is the second Nitro rollator my son has had. His original one needs the brakes adjusted so we sent for another. We have been really impressed with this very sturdy product. The service from essential aids is second to none. One difference to the first one we purchased is the difference in the depth of the seat. It is manageable but the depth of the original one was better.

    very good

  59. Aquarius Shower Commode Chair
    A very useful aid
    Review by A. Williams Posted on 08/06/2025
    This is the first commode chair I have found which can be easily taken apart and fitted in a standard medium sized suitcase. Great for when travelling and wishing to avoid all and sundry knowing that you are carrying such a device. The arms retaining clips are better removed for ease of disassembly and the back will not be needed for many. With a little bit of development it could be made even better and more compact if the manufacturer is listening. It certainly fills a real hole in the market.

  80. Luxury Washable Duvet (Single)
    Comfortable and seems good so far
    Review by L. Brooks Posted on 02/06/2025
    Came compressed and with a slight smell from manufacturing but not unpleasant. A wide single duvet so might need a double cover. I have tried a flanelette sheet under it for now. Mum used to prefer blankets but a duvet lighter and easier with reduced mobility and should be easy to wipe or wash when needed.
