Forearm Forklift Shoulder Harness – Orig. Model - Lift and Move Furniture, appliances, Supports up to 800 lb. Moving Harness Set, 2 Harnesses and 2 Center Straps That are ea 9’4” Long, 1 Pack, Orange

I purchased this to move a foam queen sized mattress out of an apartment and down a flight of stairs, for which it worked well. I got this over Shoulder Dolly 2-Person Lifting and Moving System - Easily Move, Lift, Carry, And Secure Furniture, Appliances, Heavy Objects Without Back Pain! Straps and Harnesses for 2 Movers - Great Tool To Add To Moving Supplies! because this seemed more stable than the Shoulder Dolly. The Should Dolly only has one strap on the bottom which made me concerned that the mattress would just slide off sideways. We had about 6 inches and 100 lbs difference between the two of us, but this did not pose a problem. The person on the bottom had to shorten the belt, by switching to a lower hole. But no major issues.For moving smaller and short objects there might be a problem do to limited belt length adjustments. Not for professional movers.The FFMCVP hooks on the shoulder harness attaches to one of three positions on the belts, which look to be the same type as the Forearm Forklift. Your ability to adjust the length of this belt is limited though since there are only three positions. In order to lift an object you have to push against it with your arms, so if you can't reach the object with your arms you can not lift it. We did find a way to half the length of these straps by looping them and then threading the end back through the original hole and on to the hooks. It did work. But I discovered that the object we were trying to lift (a 32 inch CRT) was too high up (sitting on a dresser) for us to crunch up to lift it. When we got the CRT on the floor and on a pallet we still could not lift it. While we had enough of a base to work with, the TV was not tall enough for our arms to reach it while using the the shortest positions on the belt. We could have halved the belt length again, but this would have meant we could not adjust the length when it came down to take it down the stairs - the person on the bottom would make their belt shorter to keep the object more upright, and hence forth keep less weight that would be pushing against them. Given this limitation if you need to lift objects of varying sizes, you'd better off with Shoulder Dolly 2-Person Lifting and Moving System - Easily Move, Lift, Carry, And Secure Furniture, Appliances, Heavy Objects Without Back Pain! Straps and Harnesses for 2 Movers - Great Tool To Add To Moving Supplies! even though it's potentially less stable.

Used to move a 400lb item. Helped tremendously. Height of users is important when using these. The closer in height, the better.

My partner and I have had to move around a lot of our appliances recently. From the house to garage, back into the house. All over the place. We had been using a dolly which was very effective but moving a fridge with a dolly and only two people is a bit of a challenge. I bought these straps mainly to move our stove. They worked like a charm! We brought the stove in from the garage, up our front steps with only minor difficulties. I will say that we used a piece of plywood to build ourselves a ramp up the stairs which helped quite a bit.My only gripe with these is that they're not more adjustable. I'm quite short and I wish there were more options to basically make the straps shorter so that you can lift the object a little higher off the ground.All in all I'm happy. These are great for your average person who's going to user these 4-5x a year. If your job is to move big heavy stuff, these are probably not sturdy enough for you(construction wise, the webbing itself is fine). I'll put these in a box and use them whenever we're moving something heavy. Completely worth the cash.

It is a very good item for transportation, I love it, it helps me a lot for moving, when you are careful with the movement, the items are not damaged, and the pressure on the person carrying them is not too much, thank you for this good tool

The fabric looked nice. It seemed like in theory it would work great but the straps were too long. Which was weird because I’m looking at the lady in the picture and she’s no taller than me so I don’t understand why the straps were too long. I was really quite surprised. These would work for big tall people. i’m 5’7 and I still wasn’t tall enough to use it as the straps were too long and not adjustable.

Im sure they work great. I did not even open them to use them though.

makes big things easy to move

The straps are too long, even when adjusted. Unless you're very tall, this doesn't work well
