Michelle’s father now enjoys worry-free baths and quick recovery from falls, thanks to the dual-function AX08.
For families caring for elderly loved ones, few things are as frightening as hearing that dreaded thud—the sound of a fall. Michelle Eller knew this fear all too well. Her elderly father had taken several spills, each one leaving him shaken and dependent on family members to lift him. Bath time was equally stressful, requiring careful assistance to prevent slips. But when Michelle discovered VOCIC’s AX08 Electric Bath Lift Chair, everything changed—not just for her father, but for their entire family.
The Problem: Fear and Dependence
Michelle’s father had reached a point where his mobility challenges controlled his life. Simple activities—like stepping out of the bathtub or getting up from a fall—required help. "He hated feeling like a burden," Michelle shared. "And we hated seeing him so scared." The breaking point came when her pregnant daughter struggled to lift him after a fall in the garden. "We knew we needed a better solution," Michelle said.
The Discovery: A Chair That Does More
While searching online for mobility aids, Michelle found VOCIC’s AX08 Electric Bath Lift Chair—a device designed not just for bathing safety but also for lifting users from the floor. The demonstration videos showed how easily it could help someone rise after a fall, and its waterproof design made it perfect for bath time.
Unable to visit a store in person, Michelle took a leap of faith and ordered the AX08. "The videos were so clear and helpful," she said. "I felt confident it would work for Dad."
Transforming Daily Life
The AX08 arrived, and the family quickly put it to use. Michelle’s father was skeptical at first, but after a few practice runs, he grew comfortable with the chair’s smooth lifting mechanism. Then came the real test:
First Fall with the AX08: When Michelle’s father slipped a few weeks later, her pregnant daughter was able to position the chair, activate the lift, and help him up—all on her own. "He was shocked at how easy it was," Michelle recalled. "No more waiting for my husband or son-in-law to rush home."
Bathing with Confidence: The AX08’s secure seat and gentle recline made bath time safe and independent. "Dad could lower himself into the tub and rise back up without help," Michelle said. "It gave him his dignity back."
Portability for Anywhere: Lightweight and battery-powered, the AX08 moved effortlessly from bathroom to garden. "We even used it by the pool," Michelle added. "It’s not just a bath lift—it’s a life lift."
Why the AX08 Stands Out
Michelle’s favorite features:
✔ Dual Functionality: Works as both a bath lift and floor lift, eliminating the need for multiple devices.
✔ Waterproof & Easy to Clean: Perfect for wet environments, with antibacterial materials for hygiene.
✔ Lightweight & Portable: It it easy to move around the house or even take outdoors.
✔ Rechargeable Battery: No cords or outlets needed—just reliable power wherever it’s needed.
Her only suggestion? A slightly sturdier frame for added stability when lifting someone who’s nervous.
A Family’s New Normal
With the AX08, Michelle’s father regained his confidence. "He’s back to gardening, puttering around the house, and even joking about his ‘magic chair,’ " she laughed. The family’s stress levels dropped dramatically, knowing that even Michelle’s petite daughter could assist in an emergency.
Spreading the Word
Now, Michelle recommends the AX08 to friends and local support groups. "This isn’t just a product—it’s peace of mind," she said. She’s even suggested VOCIC showcase the chair at adaptive therapy centers and senior expos. "More families need to know this exists."
"The AX08 didn’t just help my father—it freed all of us."
Like John Norton’s story of reclaiming independence with VOCIC’s wheelchair, Michelle’s experience highlights how the right tool can restore confidence, safety, and joy. For families facing similar challenges, her message is clear: "Don’t wait for the next fall. Take control with the AX08."
