What types of chairs will work with the CouchCane?
The CouchCane is compatible with any four-legged couch, sofa, chair, lift chair or recliner. The front and rear legs of the chair must sit on top of the base pads to hold it in place. It adjusts in depth to fit chair legs 20″-36″ deep.

We just weren't able to use it. Also, assembly and adjustment require a good bit of physical strength and some ingenuity.
Not so great for left-sided weakness following a stroke:
It did not prove useful for my family member who had suffered a stroke that left her very weak on her left side. We had hoped it would enable her to more easily get up from the low and deep cushions of a couch, but we couldn't position the handle low enough, or sufficiently far forward of the arm of the couch to provide the right leverage for getting up one-handed.
I noted in the brochure photos that some users used both hands to grasp the cane, reaching across their body and turning themselves toward the cane. I tried that maneuver myself and the cane was helpful, but wouldn't work for my family member. I then tried the same half-turn single handed -- as she would have to -- and put a great deal of strain on my knee. Couldn't take the risk of injuring her strong leg.
We really did try to make this work: If I (reasonably able-bodied), sat very far back in the seat, I could pull myself forward fast enough to rise from the couch in one movement. That's asking a lot of a stroke patient. That's also not how stroke patients are taught to rise from a chair. Physical therapists recommend sitting at the front edge of a seat, with feet in parallel. This position puts the cane handle next to or behind, the patient. Not so useful, and not practical given my family member's particular circumstances.
Finding and installing assistive devices is a complex process and has to be tailored to the needs and circumstances of the person who will use them. It's a process of constant trial and a lot of error on the part of the caregiver. From my perspective, this device clearly requires two hands to use.
Assembly -- a two-person job
The device is well constructed and fairly heavy. While it has only a few assembly steps, putting this thing together and adjusting it requires some physical strength and patience. The cane raises and lowers using holes and spring loaded pins. Press in the pin, slide the column to the next hole.... These pins and holes are double sided and are HARD to depress, and one will invariably pop back out just as you get the other one clear.. I had to disable one of the sides with a screwdriver to adjust the cane column.
Adjusting the base plates to match the placement of the couch feet (the couch feet have to sit on the "pads" at front and back for stability). Working by myself, I had again disable one side of the spring loaded pin and prop the couch up on books to align the pad and feet.
The whole process took about 90 minutes, plus another hour or so of experimenting. Again, I'm reasonably able bodied and fairly competent at this kind of assembly This is not to say it's poorly designed, but I thought it would benefit other potential buyers to know that assembly and adjustment are not trivial and you may need some help.
