We ordered this to help move some solid oak furniture while redoing a room. The main culprit was a tall 6 drawer dresser. Putting these on and following the directions made moving this furniture a breeze! My husband and I — he is 6 foot and I am 5’2” were able to move the furniture like it was a simple coffee table! Highly recommend!!

If each person is different height it does not work well . Too much adjusting

This is a great tool to use when moving larger objects. This will definitely save your arms and shoulders. Just make sure you and partner push against what you’re moving to keep stabilized. Just watch the video and see how easily it is to use.

Moving strap too short for anything longer than a small loveseat. They claim it can lift furniture that's up to 10' long but the strap is only 12'. That means that you have to be wearing the harness less that a foot off the ground on each side, THAT'S NOT PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE! I had to find a longer polypropylene strap on line (you can find companies that sell it by the yard) . The harnesses not made to easily fit the average American male but is manageable. I'm 5'10" 240 pounds and it was a little bit of a squeeze to get into/out of, but usable when on.Nice product but needs to be updated to handle American sized people and furniture.

Initially the product worked like a dream, was able to move most of our heavy furniture with ease. For dressers and nightstands we didn't even remove the drawers and was able to get them out of the house down a windy staircase while using. That alone deserves the four stars I gave the product. The issues we had were pending the piece and incline of the floor we has to basically sit on the floor to be able to navigate. If going up a high incline of stairs the furniture would tilt to one side and put all of the weight of one person. We then had to have the person with all the weight struggle to hold the piece while the opposite person adjusted their strap tighter. Just make sure whatever you're lifting isn't too heavy that one person can't handle alone for a few seconds otherwise you may be in for serious injury. Throughout the move we did find the straps would sometimes give and we had to readdress the harness and strap alignment. This product would be best utilized on level surfaces, stairs are an issue but walking on a level surface is a dream.

...if you have big and/or heavy items!! We just bought our first home and after taking on a mortgage, we wanted to save a few hundred bucks by doing a self-move. First off, if you have the extra $, *seriously consider* hiring some pro movers. It will go sooo much faster and easier if you have some pros do it, and you'll save yourself the aches and pains of tired muscles, not to mention the grumpiness that will take over after you've packed and unpacked a moving truck. If it's truly not an option to hire movers, then get this kit. It really does work if you have two people who can communicate ("ready, set, lift" will be your script). We lifted a solid pine armoire that stands about 6.5' tall, a front loading washer that was the weight of a baby elephant, the matching dryer, a TV stand that holds a 60" tv, a dining hutch, and a 8-drawer chest. It paid for itself after the armoire. We saw these straps at work when we had pro movers for our out-of-state move, and could see how it made easy work of big and bulky furniture. If you're not familiar with how this kit works, make sure to watch a video or read the included instructions because safety is not a joke. And because wrecking your own stuff will only add to the grumpiness. The straps were loose on me (5'6", 140lbs) and snug on the hubby (6'4", 250ish) but that didn't reduce the effectiveness AT ALL. Make sure the strap is secured tightly on both ends, then "ready, set, lift". Oh yeah, get yourself some good work gloves while you're shopping for moving stuff. You'll have better grip and save your hands from gashes or sharp corners. Hey, you've been warned...I don't recommend moving yourself but if you must, I highly recommend this product.This is a 100% legit, verified review and I paid for this item with my own hard-earned $.

First and foremost this product does not change how much weight you will have to lift! Their is no added mechanical advantage when using this product. The weight of the lifted object will be evenly distributed between the two lifters EXCEPTwhen both lifters are not at the same level (ie stairs). While lifting objects up and down stairs the person on the higher step will most likely have to bear most of the load unless the bottom person uses their hands.That being said, I would still highly recommend this product because it helps anyone (from the guy who has never deadlifted to the body builder of the year) to keep good lifting form throughout the entire move. All the weight is placed on your shoulders close to your body so you can lift using only your legs while keeping your back in a neutral isotonic non-jerking position. An added bonus is that your hands are left free from carrying the load so you can control the object with ease using both arms. You cannot do this with the Forearm Forklift! Also a good thing to know is make sure that the strap is placed as close to the center as you can so your object doesn't tip over when you lift up for the first time.This product is especially nice to use while carrying awkward and heavy objects that don't have good spots to grip at waist height (ie refrigerator, dressers, recliner couches ect).
