Lighted Magnifying Glass
Make the fine print a little easier to read. Whether reading instructions, checking labels, working on a puzzle or enjoying a favorite hobby, the Lighted Magnifying Glass makes small print and fine details easier to see.

It’s a practical gift they’ll find plenty of uses for around the house.
Garden Kneeler Seat
Perfect for the gardener on your list. The Garden Kneeler Seat helps keep them planting, weeding and working on landscaping with less strain on their knees and back. The cushioned knee pad provides a comfortable place to kneel and work, while sturdy handles add support when crouching down and standing back up.

Portable 3-in-1 Handle
A helping hand getting in and out of the car. The Portable 3-in-1 Handle fits into the vehicle's door latch to provide added leverage and stability when getting in and out. Its compact size makes it easy to keep in the car door or glove box, while a built-in seatbelt cutter and window breaker provide added peace of mind in an emergency. Two Portable Handles are included, so they can keep one in multiple vehicles or have one handy on either side of the same vehicle.
Deluxe Teak Shower Stool
Added comfort and support. The Deluxe Teak Shower Stool provides a comfortable place to sit while showering or getting dressed without sacrificing style. The elevated armrests offer added support when sitting down and standing back up. Made from naturally water-resistant solid teak, it adds a warm, attractive look to the bathroom without looking like a traditional shower chair. Plus, it folds to just 2" wide for easy storage when not in use.
What Our Customers Say:
“The teak stool has been used and enjoyed by my wife who have started to have difficulty standing that long! Great comfort with the addition”
