Click to zoomHoyer Advance
The Hoyer Advance is an electric sling lift for a person who cannot stand. It carries 340 lbs., weighs 69.7 lbs., lifts from the floor to bed height, and folds without tools for storage or travel.
An electric aluminum sling lift that picks a person up from the floor, a chair or a bed, then folds without tools and stands on its own in a closet or a car trunk.
What stands out
The Advance is the Hoyer sling lift for a home where space is tight or where the lift has to travel. It does the full job of a floor lift. The spreader bar comes down to 15.3", which is low enough to pick a person up from the floor, and goes up to 66.5", which clears a bed or a wheelchair. The legs taper and open to 39.4" inside, so the base goes around a recliner, a commode or a wide wheelchair and brings the mast close to the person. The frame is aluminum and the whole lift weighs 69.7 lbs. with its battery. It folds without tools to 46.5" by 21.7" by 17.7", stands upright on its own when folded, and comes apart into two pieces of about 33 lbs. and 31 lbs. for a car trunk. The trade is capacity and convenience. It carries 340 lbs., and you open the legs with a foot pedal. The Hoyer Presence carries 500 lbs. and opens its legs from the hand control. The Advance ships without a sling, and it needs a Hoyer loop sling on its 6-point spreader bar.
Straight talk
Is it right for you?
A good fit if you
- cannot stand and need a sling lift
- weigh up to 340 lbs.
- need to be lifted from the floor as well as from a bed or chair
- have little room to store a lift, or take it in a car
Look elsewhere if you
- weigh more than 340 lbs., where the Hoyer Presence carries 500 lbs.
- can bear some weight and want a stand aid, where the Hoyer Journey fits
- want base legs that open from the hand control
- need a lift for a wet room or shower
