When I first saw Bra Angel I knew we’d feature it. It’s an ingenious new product for women with restricted arm movement that makes putting on a bra by themselves difficult or impossible.  Bra Angel lets them complete the task without requiring the assistance of another person.  Modestly priced, it helps larger women or anyone who needs it dress with dignity and independence.

Lift chairs make a world of difference for anyone who needs assistance sitting down or getting to their feet.  Like the people who use them, lift chairs come in all shapes and sizes.  Today I’ll cut through the confusion and show you the three models built especially for the larger person.

First is the Pride Mobility XL with 500 lb. capacity.  This beautiful chair has a seat 26 inches wide and like the two chairs that follow it’s strongly built and reinforced to perform for many years.  It’s quiet yet powerful dual motors and smooth, patented lift action raise and lower it to exactly the position you choose using the simple to use one button hand controller. 

To the right is the Pride Mobility XXL.  This model features 600 lb. capacity and a generous 30 inch seat width.  Like all three of these chairs it includes battery back-up power to allow for operation even during an electrical interruption.

Last but certainely not least is the Golden Technologies Infinite Position chair.  It’s 700 lb. capacity is the highest for any lift chair made.  It’s three motors not only raise and lower but also allow the back and footrest to be independently adjusted to exactly the positions you find most comfortable.

These chairs are beautifully styled and crafted pieces of furniture and come in a wide choice of fabric colors to enhance any room.  All include multiple year warranties and your choice of standard delivery or “White Glove” delivery and set-up.

Lift chairs are just one of many innovative mobility aids we feature.  Click here to see them all.

What are vacations made for?  In my case last week it was to oversee a major update to the Size Is No Limit website.  I regularly get suggestions for new products to carry and about various ways to improve the site.  The one I’ve heard most often is, “Why don’t you make the chairs easier to find?”  Well, we just did.  They now have their very own category in the top-left corner of every page.  Click here to see what I mean.  See, I do listen!

We’ve also finished stocking our pages with bunches of new products.  Some are really innovative but I’ll talk more about that in upcoming posts.

Of all the items I see larger people pay too much for, reaching tools top the list.  It usually happens when folks are recovering from an injury or surgery and turn to a high priced medical supply store for a reacher.  To make matters worse, many times they’re not even sold exactly the tools they need.  With what you’ll learn here, that doesn’t need to happen.

Reaching tools come in two main designs.  First is the “Grip Lock” style shown here.  It has replaceable rubber tips that make it well suited for removing jars from a top shelf or even delicate tasks like picking a dime up off the floor.  They come in different lengths, in folding models and models where the grip-lock can be rotated.

The second design is the “Vertical Jaw-Grip” reacher.  It’s jaw closes like a bird’s beak with the strength you decide is necessary and is suited for picking up items like a newspaper, clothing or shoes.  Jaw-grip models also come in different lengths and regular or folding models.

Both the “Grip-lock” and “Vertical Jaw-Grip” reachers have pistol style grips making them light and easy to use the first time you pick one up.

When considering reaching tools it’s good to look beyond the traditional.  Long handled dressing tools, shoehorns, body washers, back scratchers and even a hands free shoe remover can all make life easier.  It could also be that a complete value priced set of reaching tools for a variety of uses is the answer.  See all the latest models at value prices Here.

I’ve worn contact lenses for a long time.  For some reason lots of larger people haven’t discovered contacts but once they do most are glad they did.   One of the reasons contacts work well for me is that I wear them correctly.  I get a yearly check to make sure my eyes are healthy and I clean and replace my contacts as required.  Another important rule I follow is I never pay the over the counter price for my contacts and neither should you.  I buy the identical brand lenses in my exact prescription online and save a lot of money.  Having them delivered to my door sure beats the hassle and cost of driving somewhere to find them.  I shop for mine at AC Lens.

If you wear contacts or think you might someday, you don’t need to pay full price for yours, either.
