The PTA was invaluable to Dad when he could no longer squat to sit on the toilet and did not have the strength in his legs to raise himself up to a standing position. With the PTA, he could easily back his walker up to the toilet, press the lift switch on the left armrest, raise the seat to a comfortable "butt height", lean back to sit on the toilet seat, and then press the lift switch to lower himself (and the toilet seat) down to the base of the toilet. When time was up, he would press the lift switch to raise himself up 13' so he could stand up to his walker. At first Dad was a little leery, but he quickly and happily used the PTA until he was no longer able to stand.
We give the PTA an A+ on safety, stability, quality materials, ease of use, ability to be folded up and transported to another location, and mostly for providing Dad some independence and privacy.
I included parts of the manual in the photo section for additional information.
Remember our PTA is fully assembled except for the addition of a toilet seat. The buyer can attach his/her own existing toilet seat to the frame of the PTA.
The lift switch is located on the left side of the armrest. Armrests move up and down.
This Standard PTA does not have wheels.

The product brochure has the following to say about the PTA and my family concurs 100%:
"The Power Toilet Aid is designed to help individuals with muscle limitations due to injury or disease. Many individuals with forms of multiple sclerosis or muscular dystrophy have found the PTA a very valuable tool for maintaining their independence and privacy. The PTA will simply raise your toilet seat up 13" above your existing toilet height. It is powered by a 12 volt rechargeable battery and will lift up to 400 pounds. The beauty of the PTA is its simplicity and effectiveness. It attaches to your toilet with no modifications or professional installation The arm rests are strong enough to push against yet will flip up out of the way for easy transfers to a wheelchair.
Standard PTA: The standard model attaches to your toilet where your toilet seat is attached. You simply remove your toilet seat so that the PTA can be secured to the toilet. Your toilet seat can then be mounted to the PTA frame."
