Product Details

The CarCaddie is a simple yet highly effective transfer aid designed to make getting in and out of a car safer and more comfortable. It provides a secure handhold at the exact point where support is often needed most, helping reduce strain on joints and muscles during transfers.

The CarCaddie fits quickly and easily to the car’s window frame. With the window partially lowered, the strap is looped securely around the frame and tightened in seconds, creating a strong, reliable support handle. Once fitted, it offers immediate assistance when lowering into or rising from the vehicle seat, making it particularly helpful for people with reduced strength, balance concerns, or limited mobility.

Made from durable nylon webbing with a padded, ergonomically shaped handle, the CarCaddie is comfortable to grip and reassuringly sturdy in use. The adjustable strap allows the length to be set to suit different vehicles and user preferences. Lightweight and compact, it can be stored discreetly in a handbag, glove box, or door pocket when not in use, making it ideal for everyday travel.
