Perfect for less pressure on wrist and under arms
I had a broken wrist and need crutches that did not put so much pressure on my wrist. These were perfect! I highly recommend them!

These are really nice to have! I really like how the top base part moves to change the position of your forearm/elbow. That's why I got these vs traditional forearm crutches was because my cane always ends up hurting my shoulder or my elbow and I was hoping these would be nicer!
However, they're pretty bulky and don't collapse/fold so there's no easy way to transport them or store them. I also feel like a giant billboard and the design is kinda ruined because of it... The brand name is displayed in LARGE letters in 3 places.. both sides of the arm mechanism at top and down the bar of the crutch... I understand having to advertise the brand name but even one side of the arm mechanism would be okay? Or just down the bar? I feel like it just kinda ruins the design.
I do overall enjoy these crutches and believe them to be helpful and incredibly beneficial when you've got multiple joint pain issues and not just lower body issues.

Very comfortable and adjustable.
The ability to change not only the height but the angle of how my arm rests is a gamechanger.
As someone with a connective tissue disorder these crutches have given me the ability to be a bit more normal and allow me to move quickly, which I haven’t been able to do in a long time.
And if you suffer from shoulder pain like I do, it does reduce that pain since the entire body isn’t taking the impact of each step.

There was a little hiccup with the cuff size when I ordered, but the customer service was so fast and kind. A cuff swap went in for me right away and I got the right size cuffs so quickly!
The fit is now truly perfect. I'm so elated to have my smart crutches!
I feel like I am free to go about my life again, and I've been taking walks everyday now that I feel more stable. Thank you!
As a disabled person who still works full time, this crutch just isn’t for me. I need the cuff/platform to move easily on a swivel so I can use that arm to do my job. I work in healthcare (clinic) and even the simplest actions such as turning on lights as I enter an exam room or doing a quick test on a patient require me to completely reset the platform. I’m sure there are people who this type of setup works well for, it’s just not for my own situation. I wish I had realized that before I ordered.
These trekking poles are sturdy and have fun designs. The handles are very comfortable and provide great support for balance on uneven surfaces or on even surfaces if you have balance problems. The only downside is that if you are using them in a therapy clinic to trial for patients, adjusting the height is not simple and it takes time to get both sides even. For that purpose, button settings would be easier. But if you are purchasing for a single person use, then once they are adjusted for the height, they stay put.
All other tips I’ve tried barely last 2 or 3 months which is pathetic why even sell them if they are that useless? That’s why I only use these tips, I actually get a decent amount of time out of them
