Those of us who experience mobility issues of any kind can greatly benefit from a simple, small device like this one. It’s as functional as it is portable and discreet. You can leave it in the glove compartment or stash it in your purse, making it easy to store and carry around.
The car door handle is made of high-quality materials, including forged steel that can support up to 400 pounds. It’s designed to be rust- and corrosion-resistant, durable and long-lasting, making it well worth the investment. The handle has an ergonomic, spongey sleeve that reviewers say is cushy and lightweight, so you won’t hurt your hand no matter how hard you press down on it.
It’s also surprisingly multifunctional. It has a hidden blade that can cut through a seat belt, and it can even break a window in an emergency situation. Everyone should have one of these in their car! Reviewers noted that this is definitely not just for older folks; even those without mobility issues should have one of these in their car for peace of mind. It’s “extremely solid”, reliable and a “game changer” for people with bad knees and backs.
The device comes in packs of two, so you can place one in a second car or take one with you when riding with other people.
Take a look at what other shoppers have to say about this “genius” handle and pick one up for yourself. Right now, it’s slightly discounted at Amazon so make sure you click the coupon before adding it to your cart and save a buck.
Promising reviews:
“I one hundred percent recommend this for anyone who may need a little help getting out of the car. I bought a set for my grandparents and they LOVE it. It hooks in to the car and stabilizes so you can leverage yourself safely. It’s super sturdy, durable, and easy to use. My grandparents love this product so much that they have since gifted several to their friends. They are small enough that my grandma typically travels with one in her purse in case she ever gets a ride from someone. This product is fantastic and I recommend to anyone!” — Niki

“Works like a charm. My mother was able to get into my SUV much more easily.” — Evelyn L.
“This item really helped my husband navigate getting in n out of the car after surgery. We gave the other one to a friend who had back surgery.” — RedSky
“These are perfect if your vehicle is either hard to get into or maybe is a bit higher than you can manage. I use them in both car and truck. Even bought some for other people after they saw me using them. So easy. Place on the metal hook your car door closes into. You will not want to ride without using these. I recently had knee surgeries and this has made life so much easier.” — Jrt
“What a great tool for assistance getting in or out of a vehicle. It’s lightweight, but sturdy enough to support an adult who needs leverage. This tool is especially helpful for someone with shoulder issues, where reaching above their head to pull the weight of their body can be a challenge. Not every vehicle has a handle, but this tool can be attached to every door frame we’ve tried so far. These are so helpful we now have one for every vehicle. Another perk, our dad is more willing to go places when he feels safer getting himself in and out of the passenger seat without feeling like he is a burden. It did take a few tries before he got the hang of the stability, but definitely worth it especially for the price. Although we are using this for “seniors” it would also be good for anyone who has an injury, recovering from surgery, etc and could use extra support and stability.” — TCat
“So easy to use and a huge help for my elder parents with back ailments.” — Phillip Arico
“Just had hip replacement and this product is a life saver. So much easier to get in and out of my car. Don’t know what I’d do without it. I have one in each of my cars. Excellent product.” — D.L.R.
