Dressing Stick and Shoe Horn

I had been looking for a long shoehorn since the one I had broke in half when I tried to use it to get a shirt off my shoulders. While searching through Amazon for a shoehorn I discovered that dressing sticks existed. Looking through what was available I selected the Juvo Long Handle Shoehorn and Dressing Aid. Upon receipt I was surprised that it came in two pieces, upon examination I noticed that the area where the two pieces connected was keyed and had a locking mechanism to assure a sturdy connection. Once assembled it feels like it is strong enough to hold up. The designer kept the plastic thick for sturdiness while narrowing down at the end for the shoehorn function. I love the use of non-slip plastic on most of the straight area and the hook area. This aids greatly in preventing the cloth from slipping off the dressing stick. After two days of using the dressing stick, I ordered a second stick to keep downstairs to help in getting outer wear on and off. It isn't often to find a product so well made and perfect for it's application. Well Done

I use this to assist after a shoulder replacement. It has several ways to use it, making it very versatile. Helped me feel more independent early on after surgery. Helps me dress, underwear, pants, bra, even shoes. Very helpful tool. Good for the price for sure. The material it is made of helped me grip it firmly and it also gripped my clothing well to pull them on, but didn’t snag on them, making removal easy.

The product is fine but I have not been very successful using it to dress yet however I am still in the practicing phase. However I have a very high bar in the closet and it is very good for getting items off or on that bar.

This little gadget will grab or hook many things. I used it after my total shoulder replacement to reach my jacket, my sheets and a cord with a loop I had tied onto my ceiling light. I could not have made it through my recovery without it. I highly recommend it's use for those with limited range of motion.

Easy to use and clean. Makes putting your shoes a breeze.

I needed a hand getting my undergarments on after hip revision surgery. This did the trick! What a lifesaver when you are unable to bend or lift your leg. Highly recommend this little gadget.

TL;DR: Taking it apart means never putting it back together. Works well if 1. you aren't pulling past a certain strength and 2. you never want to disassemble it for travel. Positive: The shape of it was functional and the rubber grips were a nice touch. Negative: No disassembly functionality. After putting the two pieces together, there is no way to separate them without completely ruining its structural integrity (which is two tiny plastic slats; think like a backpack buckle but laughably thin). I assume if I'd been able to use it for longer, there's a high chance it would have pulled apart while trying to dress. Poorly designed; go with the wooden ones that are just one piece. Frankly if this was designed as one singular piece, it would be great.

This product turned out to be too flimsy to be useful. The shoe horn bends easily. It doesn't provide a firm backing for slipping on a shoe. Using the hook end causes the length to bend. It works for only the most lightweight garments. I returned it.
