Hi Silas, I use a Hoyer and because my right leg was removed from the hip in '89, I must use my hips to guide me in correctly. The 'Tilt' on my chair does help a lot! With Love, CtrlAltDel aka Dave C4/5 Complete - 30 Years Post Texas, USA

Is this problem eliminated with a ceiling mounted lift system? or is it still difficult to get far back into the chair with a ceiling lift because of the sling? Thanks, Dan T.
