Review on DNYSYSJ Stretcher Transport Emergency Recovery by Todd Phillips

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Unique product

This is the second stretcher I have bought, maybe not from the same seller but they are all the same (I suspect they are made by the same company and many other companies). sell it). The first one lasted 2 years which isn't great but for less than $100 I can make a living buying a new one every 2 years. I would give it less stars but it's the only product on the market I can find and it's a great asset to what I do every day (end of life pet care). Pros: The only wheeled stretcher I can find so I can safely take a pet weighing 100 pounds or less out of the house unassisted, can also be used for a sick, immobile pet to get into a vehicle transportation to get to the hospital. I get many compliments on being well prepared for my home visits. Cons: 1. The straps are too long. So if left like this, you can't fit the mesh sleeve snugly on a thinner pet. To fix this I removed the stitching from the female end of the buckle strap so I could adjust the length of the female end strap as well as the men's end strap. This solved the problem. Another benefit of this is that if the buckle is stepped on it will BREAK and this makes it easy to replace with a stronger buckle if this is the case. The wing nuts on the front that hold the strap eyebolts will scratch the surface anywhere you can put the stretcher in, in my case it's my Honda Pilot which has a non-original trunk cover so I don't scratch my carpet inside. To fix this I added wheels in the front (smaller than the rear) to fit my car snugly and also replaced the wing nuts with acorn nuts which don't do as much damage and get caught on things as easily. . it will rust. I clean my carrier regularly and sometimes I have to hose it down. Rust and possible breakage will occur. I had broken the wheel attachment to the rest of the cart, a weak point as this bar had already bent slightly from a heavy patient (less than the advertised 250# weight limit). 4. My new stretcher doesn't have velcro on the top and bottom flaps to secure the head and tail (there is velcro on the bottom for you to attach non-existent velcro. 5. But even if there were velcro on the flaps, if you have a big dog you still can't use the flaps, they're too short and don't reach the velcro at the bottom, so sometimes the animal slips off the carrier when it's very big and heavy... to add buckles and straps, or a longer piece of velcro at the bottom to secure it once I've put the velcro on the flaps.You can make changes as needed.It looks like the first sketch never got it to the final one Cut done For example, the creators have never used a stretcher in real life to see if it works properly.

Pros
  • Furniture and patient transport
Cons
  • Long delivery time
