FOLDING

I am so glad that I purchased these forearm crutches! They have been so dependable for me as I get back on my feet after severely breaking my leg. My draw to these crutches was originally the design, given they can fold and are easy to travel with. That said, I use them everyday (inside and outside) and have not had them wear at all. They are well made and I would recommend to anyone needing support with walking. I am grateful for the person who mentioned the vive crutch pads in their review, they fit like a glove on the crutches and provide a lot of extra comfort. 5/5 experience with these crutches, I would definitely order again.

My 6'4" husband had knee surgery and will be in a long leg splint for 6-8 weeks. I bought the Tall size for him. He likes these a LOT. He can use one or both. One is much more stable and supportive than a cane and easier on his wrist. Using 2 to walk a longer distance is easier than "armpit" crutches and they look less gimpy, almost cool. They are also much easier to put in a car because they are about a foot shorter. They are very light and strong. Europeans are very conscious of ergonomics, and this is the only kind I've ever seen used there.

Sturdy and easy to use. Folds us well. Not good for anyone under 5'4"

Had Achilles surgery and was just transitioning out of the walking boot. So I got these specifically for a trip to NYC. Wish I would have had them the whole recovery though. I’m 5’10”, 215 pounds and they were great. Quiet. Pretty comfortable. Sturdy. Better looking than the aluminum colored ones. Way lighter / less heavy too. Folded up and adjusted super easily. I can’t attest to long term use but they got heavy use for many miles in the city. I wish I would have brought my wife’s little yoga mat carrying strap, because if I could have had that to help them stay closed and put over my shoulder while using public transportation and on the plane and in restaurants and such that would have been beautiful

So much better than regular crutches. No more wrist or armpit pain. Will never use regular again but hope I never need either after this leg heals.

Great crutches. The folding feature makes them much more manageable on a plane, but after walking on them for a while, the small abrasions formed cause the two halves to stick, so it takes a bit of strength to pull them apart. They would be much more stable if there was a way to adjust the forearm cradle.

Warning: These are TOO TALL for people under 5'6"! If you accidentally bought these, only to discover they are too tall for you, if you have the skills and tools, you can McGyver them to work. 1) remove the rubber foot 2) Use a miter saw (or hacksaw) to cut off a couple of inches off the bottom leg section (make sure your removing equal amounts off both crutches) where it goes into the rubber foot. 3) Debur or sand down the freshly cut edge as smooth as you can get them. 4) Push the rubber caps back on the bottom. Since they are aluminum, than they shouldn't rust at the cut part, but you can hit the newly cut end with a spray of Rust-Olium paint if you want to. Other than that, They are acceptable forearm crutches. Some people have mentioned the noise, but as someone who's been on forearm crutches for over a decade, ALL crutches need to have the fittings tested and tighten up regularly in order to keep them from collapsing, rattling or clanging. They are a decent balance between weight and stability - I hook these to the back of my wheelchair, so that I can have the extra mobility when I need it in a small area.

I sustained a serious injury that had been very tough to get through... I'm still facing the injury to this day. I eventually graduated to a cane, but the wobbly ones they give had me keep my crutches instead. Unfortunately, worker's comp wouldn't buy these, sonI had to fork over the cash... but it was well worth it. It is much more comfortable and convenient than the wobbly cane worker comp approved, and helps me out immensely. I would definitely recommend as it provides more support and better security when walking, especially when recovering from an injury. 5 stars all the way, otherwise I'd be using one crutch to this day, because that wobbly cane was not it. Thankfully this serves its purpose and can handle a good amount of weight and keep me steady enough in most types of weather (it helps in snow, but is difficult regardless of whatever is used–though, this is the better of all the other options).

半月板損傷のため、生まれて初めて杖を買った。便利そうだからと折りたたみ式の本品を買ったが、使ってみると接続部の耐久性とわずかながら着いた時のガタつきが少し気になった。まぁ、大丈夫なのだろうが使うたびに気になるので星4つとした。長さの調節機構は必須だと思うが、折りたたみ機構は使う人やそのライフスタイルによるだろうと思った。確かにカバンなどへの収納には便利だろうが、杖という道具の本来の目的からは多少の疑問が残った。
