I really wanted to love this, but unfortunately I'm going to be sending it back for a refund after using it for two days in a job that requires a fair amount of walking and standing.
The design just doesn’t work for me. The neoprene handle cover slips and has a raised seam, which has caused a blister at the base of my thumb. If you take the sleeve off, there is a seam in the plastic right where the palm of your hand sits which is uncomfortable.
The combined open cuff and hinged cuff click when you walk and pinch the skin of your arm. You can purchase cuff covers, but I need the hinge action of the cuff to hang the crutch off my arm when making drinks or picking things up at work.
On the positive side, I love the way the crutch looks, and someone in a less active job might not experience the same issues as me.
Absolutely fabulous! Don’t know how I managed without them . Well of course I didn’t did I? There is an 18 month old living here an he absolutely loves them and takes every opportunity to steal one and walk around with it—to the manner born!In a short while whenhe’s grown a bit more I think I shall have to tie them to me permanently or else stay in bed!
I ordered 4 for my grabbers which fall a lot. When I saw them I thought these have possibilities. So easy to adapt to requirements. Love them!
I have been using mobility aids for a very long time but after a recent surgery I felt I needed a bit more stability during the recovery period. Would highly recommend the reinforced ferrules. They provide that extra security and confidence in moving around.
