Medline Offset Handle Cane, Black

Customer Reviews

only 2 of them removed easily. HoweverFor the price, this cane delivered. There were MULTIPLE tags stuck all over the cane; only 2 of them removed easily. However, I have Goo Gone on hand in my house, so after removing as much of the paper as I could, the Goo Gone removed the rest. The company might consider replacing all those tags with a paper insert. :) 4Very good basic caneI paid $14 for this just a few days ago and it is now down to $11.28. It was a good buy at $14. I might buy another at the lower price to leave in the car. Solid construction, but light in weight. Easy to adjust height. No tripod base, no built-in flashlight. Just a good, basic cane that does what it needs to do at a good price. Only reasons I don't give it a 5-star rating? Cane comes in a plastic bag. The bag had a big hole torn in it so I am pretty sure my cane has been unpackaged before. And, even though people have been complaining in these ratings for 2 years about all the hard to remove stickers on the cane, it still comes with a bunch of hard to remove stickers. Some peel off but leave glue residue behind. Some only partially peel off. 4I love these canesNo problems getting the cane. I love these canes, but I hate taking off the stickers. Plan on spending at least 20+ min with your Goo Gone (or whatever you use to remove the leftover schmutz/gluey residue) from all the customer information/bar code stickers. Good advice: Dawn liquid is very helpful. Also, once most of the residue is gone, the best final swipe is with Goo Gone on a paper towel. 4Low-price but high-quality.Definitely worth the price, it s basic and does exactly what it supposed to. I got this for a hip replacement and wound up using it quite a bit, absolutely worth the money. 5CaneI am big guy, need the support, I have had 2 knee surgeries and going on 2 more. I am 6'1" and 280lbs, so I need something that will stand the test of time. I have been using this cane on a regular basis now for 3 months and have not had one issue, it feels sturdy and most important it bears my weight. The foam padding around the handle works great, I was getting calluses from my other cane, but not with this one. Cannot beat it for the money. Great Product! 5Excellent Cane, Gummy StickersThis is a great cane. The two I purchased arrived speedily, as I'm a Prime member, and the order was filled by Amazon.You can adjust this cane by pushing in the silver button and moving the lower portion of the cane up or down to shorten or lengthen the cane. The button will pop into another hole to secure it. For added security, you will want to tighten the nut (?) around the cane in case the silver button was to slip for some reason. See the attached photos for clarification. It is likely that you've seen this type of set-up before.I purchased two of these canes because a friend had lent me hers when I had a recent knee issue. The sign that my knee was improving is that I forgot the cane in a taxi, never to be seen again.These canes would have received 5 stars if it weren't for the numerous stickers on each cane and the amount of time it will take me to de-gum the canes. 44'10" Perfect Love it.I have it set a little longer-taller for back purpose, or it would be almost short on me. I had been in a wheel chair for 4 long months, no weight baring, both bones lower right leg were broke in 2places, bad run in farm animal. I also got walking poles afew days ago. I have tried to use canes of other people's but they were way to long. Handle feels very comfortable to hold. I was curious about the off set, but with use I totally understand how it helps. The length button doesn't come all the way out, don't understand that except of the lenth turning ring at the bottom of the length holes. Just buy and try, I could not be happier. 5Solid cane, good price.I received the cane today, and both the price and quality are good. The cane is solid, the grip is comfortable. The finish came with a couple of small scuffs on it, but it will get more scuffs with use, so that doesn't really matter.Regarding some of the negative reviews:The factory stickers are tougher to remove than they could be, but no tougher than the labels on new appliances. I had no problem getting them off the cane using a few paper towels and my go-to sticker remover: lighter fluid. The fluid softens/dissolves the glue gradually, and it has never hurt any of the finishes I've used it on.Some reviews mentioned that the metal pipe punches through the rubber tip, leaving a rubber plug inside the pipe. I was planning to put a steel washer inside the tip so the pipe would push on the washer rather than directly on the rubber. When I took the tip off, the cane already had a steel washer in that location. Perhaps the people with the problem had defective canes where the factory omitted the washer. I don't see how a rubber plug can end up inside the pipe because the washer would prevent the pipe from cutting the rubber.At least one review claimed the cane was dangerous, that the locking ring on the length adjustment did not firmly hold the cane at the selected length and the cane could collapse without warning. The ring is NOT the length adjustment. Once you set the length, the ring tightens to prevent the inner and outer pipes from rattling against each other, not to hold the length. The length is set via a spring loaded pin that pops through one of many pre-drilled holes down the back of the cane. When the cane was delivered, it was fully collapsed to its minimum length and the pin was not visible at all (all of the adjustment holes were "empty"). I loosened the locking ring and extended the cane until the pin became visible past the end of the outer pipe. I turned the inner pipe to line the pin up with the column of holes in the outer pipe and pushed the pipes together to make the cane shorter, selecting the hole that gave me the right length. Then I tightened the locking ring so the pipes did not rattle. No problem, and the length is a firm and secure setting.At least one review claimed a therapist called the cane junk and to buy a better one. My opinion is the therapist wanted to make an equipment sale. The cane is as solid as any I've seen. I was going to buy a cane locally, but the "discount" store wanted $27. I bought this one instead for under $12 (delivered) using Prime, and I see no difference in the canes other than price. 5I received the cane today and like it.I received the cane today and like it... What I really hate are the stickers all over it that I worked on all morning to remove. If I didn't have Goo Gone to apply to them I would still be working on them. I can see putting their name and info on a sticker but that is all. I would have left the name on except it got damaged while I was removing the others. Why do they think anyone would like white stickers all over their cane? Very classy NOT I would like to order an second cane but I will look for one that doesn't have stickers all over it and I will check with the company to make sure it doesn't. 4Couldn't do without itAfter a complete knee replacement I needed some help in moving around. This style of cane was what my therapist recommended. I had a right knee replaced and I was using it in my right hand. He explained it was the wrong thing to do, I should use it with my left. At first it seemed a little awkward but I got used to it fast and he was right. You use a cane on the opposite side of the injury. Nevertheless it helped me move around quite a bit until the healing took place. I still keep it close just in case but haven't needed to use it for over a month now. Good cane, though, and the price was right. 5
