91 customers mention59 positive32 negative

Customers are mixed about the adjustability of the crutches. Some mention that they are extremely adjustable, able to fit a child or an adult over six feet, and easy to adjust. However, others say that they're not super sturdy and a bit difficult to adjust, with the security pop-in pieces not always securely fitting. The handles cannot be adjusted because of the string inside, making it infuriatingly difficult to change the handle height.

87 customers mention46 positive41 negative

Customers are mixed about the comfort of the crutches. Some mention that the handles are very comfy and the tips seem fairly durable so far. The rubber feet of the Crutches are soft and flexible, but they find them sturdy and safe. However, others say that they are very uncomfortable, the under arm rubber pads are not comfortable, and the wing nuts can be painful when hit accidentally. The ergonomics are very poor and the product is heavier than expected.

"The crutches are sturdy and comfortable, love they can be folded in half when no longer needed for easy storage." Read more

"...However, the price isn't worth it because the underarm pads hurt so badly that you'll have to spend an additional $20 for good pads...." Read more

"...The handles are very comfy and the tips seem fairly durable so far. The only thing I dont like is the arm pit pads are not comfortable at all...." Read more

"...The armrest is very hard and uncomfortable. We had to buy different crutches all together...." Read more

Great for right situations
5 Stars
Great for right situations
I'm giving these 5 stars because I'm not familiar with any other product on the market at a similar price point. Although these are sturdy enough to be used as everyday crutches, my other crutches feel slightly more sturdy and are more comfortable. I purchased these strictly for travel and was not disappointed. I was able to fold them with two hands (not 4 as other reviews suggest) but it does require practice and you must use leverage off of your thigh or chest. Also, I only folded the crutch once and just collapsed the bottom of the crutch into the frame (it just slides up into the frame if you press the levers). The downside of this technique is that the crutch is not as compact (see pic). Without this, you might need 4 hands. This is hard to explain but it will make sense once you have them. I would estimate it took me about 15 seconds per crutch to unfold once I mastered this. I used these with my knee scooter. For example because I was non-weight bearing, I used the crutches to get on and off the plane and didn't have to wait for a wheel chair.
