Some years ago, someone gave me a manual type, with a large lever,
which might have helped someone else, but was not sufficiently helpful for me, even at that time.
It also was not at all comfortable, while I was sitting in it, for my body/size/etc.
In addition, a few years after that, a close relative of mine had one that they were not pleased with, even though it was more automatic than that one.
I am sure there have been many improvements over the years;
I just thought I'd add these comments, for you to be aware,
that people who might offer to give or sell you, a "lightly used" one....but those might not work for you or for her,
so you'd have to have very specific details, about how each one/type operates, even if new,
to be certain the ones you get, would meet each of your specific needs.
