The independent legs appear to hold the entire weight of the cot/patient when loading and unloading the patient to and from the ambulance.Even though it does have independent legs, why is it preferable over the x-frame design? They both appear to do the same thing, except for two independent systems having a greater chance of breaking versus one. Also, the argument about going down a few stairs to save your back is invalid, because if you were so worried about saving your back, then you would go ahead and grab the stair chair anyways.
I heard a number around 20k per unit...saving money on back injuries would offset that though. I've heard people saying that it'll never work because of cost...how much does it cost to buy a PowerPro and a PowerLoad together? Gurney is 6-8k if I remember correctly and the load system is probably near there if not more.

A large number of our patients are unable to sit 90° for a stair chair due to back problems or are unable to fit in the stair chair due to pure width. :/
