The Harmar AL500HD Heavy Duty Platform Power Wheelchair Lift is the higher-capacity version of the world's most popular outside power chair lift — the same proven AL500 platform, motor, and Q'Straint retractor system, rated to 400 lbs for larger power chairs, complex rehab chairs, and bariatric models that exceed the standard AL500's 350 lb limit. The 26" × 39" Stars-N-Stripes aluminum deck, the same dual-method retractor attachment system, and the signature 12" folded bumper profile are all carried over from the AL500. The only meaningful differences: a heavier-duty motor and actuator for the extra 50 lbs of capacity, and a Class III hitch requirement in place of the Class II option. At 77 lbs installed — just 2 lbs more than the standard AL500 — the HD delivers substantially more capacity with virtually no installation or vehicle impact penalty. Power chairs only. No modifications required. Made in the USA.

Before You Order — Class III Hitch Required · Compatibility Must Be Confirmed
The AL500HD requires a Class III hitch — Class II is not sufficient. The lift is designed for power chairs only up to 400 lbs. Confirm your chair's weight and your vehicle's hitch class before ordering. For chairs under 350 lbs, the standard AL500 with Class II hitch compatibility may be the more economical choice. We confirm compatibility on every order before it ships — no exceptions. Use the Harmar Compatibility Calculator below as a starting point then call us to verify. We provide local professional installation at all five of our Southwest Florida locations and coordinate professional installation nationwide through Harmar's authorized dealer network. 866-218-0902 · Mon–Fri 9AM–5PM · Sat 9AM–3PM.
The AL500 Platform, Built for Heavier Power Chairs
400 lb Capacity · Only 2 lbs Heavier Than the Standard AL500
The AL500HD upgrades the motor and actuator to handle the additional load demand of chairs up to 400 lbs — the platform, dimensions, retractor system, and operational characteristics are otherwise identical to the standard AL500. The result is that users with heavier power chairs, complex rehab chairs, or bariatric models get exactly the same proven lift platform they would expect from the AL500 family, without trading away any of its defining advantages. At 77 lbs installed, the HD adds just 2 lbs over the standard model while delivering 50 additional pounds of lifting capacity.
4 Q'Straint Retractors · Two Attachment Methods · No Modifications
The AL500HD uses the same dual-method Q'Straint retractor attachment system as the standard AL500. Four self-tensioning retractors secure the power chair without any drilling or chair modifications — attaching via either a spreader bar that slides between the seat and seat post, or metal loops that attach directly to the chair's frame for chairs without a seat post. The padded hold-down arm stabilizes the chair during transit by pressing against the frame. This flexible attachment approach ensures the AL500HD works with virtually any power chair design including complex rehab configurations.
12" Folded Profile · Class III Required · Stars-N-Stripes Deck
The AL500HD maintains the AL500's signature 12" folded bumper profile when unloaded — the same garage-friendly compact footprint that has made the AL500 family the preferred choice for everyday users who need reliable clearance. The Stars-N-Stripes perforated aluminum deck carries over unchanged. Class III hitch required — heavy-duty adapter included standard. Optional swing-away adds just 2" to the folded profile. Battery pack, cover, and license plate riser also available. 3-year transferable warranty · Made in USA.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series.
Favorite quotes:
"The truth may be twisted but never false."
"Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?"
"In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character.
*****SPOILERS*****
Pros:
The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits.
Cons:
Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks.
The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back.
*****
As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short.
Hence, 3 stars.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.
