Customers like the pain relief provided by the orthopedic brace. For example, they mention it helps reduce the pain afterwards, eases shoulder pain, and cut down the use of pain meds at night. It's good for the skin and helps to recover and get better. That said, some say it helps somewhat and is better than nothing.

"...found that wearing it at times when I walk a lot really helped reduce the pain afterwards...." Read more

"...It is much easier to position next to the skin. It does not rub my neck but I could see where it might on a smaller person with narrower shoulders...." Read more

"...It just feels awkward and makes me mad lol." Read more

622 customers mention186 positive436 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the fit of the orthopedic brace. For example, they mention that the pad made to prevent this was too small for their body, it didn't fit tight enough, and it's too big for support of the shoulder. That said, some complain that the band does not go around their chest, the sleeve could be a little longer to truly support the bicep area, and the square points catch their chest now and then.

"...It does take 2 people to put it on, each time. And it's just a smidgen too big. But, overall he's very happy as am I :)" Read more

"...My chest measurement is 42". The band does not go around your chest, rather from the shoulder diagonally across your chest and back to under..." Read more

"...purchased the Sparthos brand Shoulder Brace in universal size and it fit perfectly and has a much better strap design." Read more

"...that fits the size of the chest strap - which means the square points catch your chest now and then and are irritating as hell...." Read more

476 customers mention272 positive204 negative

Customers are mixed about the comfort of the brace. Some mention that it works well for them, providing comfort and support to the injured shoulder area. However, others say that it's just uncomfortable, and the pain becomes unbearable. The tube shape makes it hug their arm a bit tighter than necessary, and it really hurts their right shoulder to lift it straight up or to pick up things.

"...wearing it at night and it provides enough support while allowing me to sleep comfortably throughout the night...." Read more

"...tear' only gets worse with continued use, & eventually, the pain becomes unbearable...." Read more

"...I first tried the brace on over my t-shirt. It was comfortable but a little hard to get in place with fabric bunching...." Read more

"...However, it’s just uncomfortable. This is my predominant arm so the discomfort is extremely annoying. It just feels awkward and makes me mad lol." Read more

346 customers mention204 positive142 negative

Customers are mixed about the stability of the brace. Some mention that it provides great support and stabilizes their injury, while others say that they really didn't feel much support.

"...This brace keeps his shoulder back and in place. While he still has pain in his upper body and neck, he said it's a lot more tolerable...." Read more

"...Too tight and you cannot secure the brace high enough once the torso strap is in place, too loose and it rides up your arm and provides no support...." Read more

"...I've been wearing it at night and it provides enough support while allowing me to sleep comfortably throughout the night...." Read more

"...it was on, it felt like I was wearing shoulder pads and I really didn’t feel much support...." Read more

179 customers mention95 positive84 negative

Customers are mixed about the ease of use of the orthopedic brace. Some mention that it's very easy to put on and simple to use, while others say that it is hard to put it on unless you have mirror to the shoulder. Some say that the instructions are unclear and it takes 2 people to put the brace on.

"...This brace unfortunately, isn’t that. It is not too bad to put on, but really needs to be cut a little lower on the neckline and needs a better..." Read more

"...With less pain! It does take 2 people to put it on, each time. And it's just a smidgen too big. But, overall he's very happy as am I :)" Read more

"I liked that it was easy to put on. I got because after my stroke my arm just hung down and was causing a separation in my shoulder and my arm." Read more

"...I wore it so much it became pilled and hard to Velcro together...." Read more

122 customers mention84 positive38 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the value of the orthopedic brace. Some find it well worth the price, while others say it was a waste of money.

"...otherwise, it was definitely worth the money. i asked the doctors i saw for something similar - most stated they did not know of any in existence...." Read more

"...I felt the price was reasonable as well...." Read more

"...Not worth the money wish I didn’t purchase, when I take it off my arm hurts more than what it did when I put it on." Read more

"...That alone makes this brace worth the money." Read more

95 customers mention55 positive40 negative

Customers are mixed about the adjustability of the orthopedic brace. Some mention that it's easy to put on, has an adjustable strap, and belt across the chest. However, others say that it can be tough to adjust so your shoulder sits right. The strap tends to move and needs to be adjust constantly.

"...The adjustable strap sleeve is perfect to protect clothing and skin from the edges of the Velcro tab on the strap end, I just slide the sleeve over..." Read more

"...A little hard to put on and adjust as well. Overall not happy and stopped using it." Read more

"...This product is reasonably comfortable and easily adjustable. It uses Velcro to adjust the strap across the chest and Velcro to adjust the sleeve...." Read more

"...on either the right or left shoulder it is near impossible and hard to adjust to a good comfort level that provides the needed comfort and range of..." Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware! This is a non-returnable item.
Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2023
My husband purchased this Vive brace hoping it would give him some support and pain relief to his shoulder. After trying it on, he felt it did absolutely nothing and tried to return it. No matter what reason you give for the return or replacement request, Amazon instructs you to contact the manufacturer Vive. When I contacted Vive, they said they could do nothing, even though they promote a satisfaction guarantee on their products, and told me to go through Amazon for the return and refund.

Amazon even lists on the product page the item is eligible for return, refund or replacement within 30 days. After the hopeless runaround between Amazon and Vive, we have a useless brace to donate. While it was not much money, we expect much better customer service. We have never had this happen before with Amazon. Very disappointed with both Vive and Amazon for this purchase.
