Much easier to use than underarm, but they dont last forever!
I used these for about 6 weeks with my non weight bearing leg. These are leaps and bounds better than the underarm crutches in my opinion! I recommend taking some hair tie elastic bands and looping them around the part that your forearm goes through(i seen this in one of the pictures in another review). I also used some grip tape around the grips to help if your hands are wet. The reason i give these 4 stars is because they are not made to last. In 6 weeks of use, the rubber coating around the forearm piece is starting to crack and pull away from the metal beneath it. Also, the forearm piece has gotten a little worn out/wobbly which doesnt really affect the use yet, but i can see if i needed these for another month or two that they would be unsafe to use. Im 230lbs, and the limit on these are 250. If youre buying these for extended use, id look at different brands, but for me, as im done with them(hopefully forever!) They served their purpose well!
Rating: 4 stars
