Ergonomic ORTONYX Forearm Crutches with Comfortable Grip - 1 Pair

Anne: All those teeth did work I take the wrong colour and I did find difficulty use but they were still what I needed. It was just I have bad hands and not very strong so it was even hard to use.

Peggy Webster: This cane is petfect. Helps my husband to stand taller than regular walking stick. Gives more support.

comfort always....: These crutches were so helpful after my surgery. I received many positive comments from health care people. Definitely recommend them.

Ria Bo Bia: The forearm style crutches are rare in the US but standard in Europe. Very efficient and comfortable vs armpit style. Never going back to the old kind.

Skye: I’ve bought these for myself because I struggle with chronic pain in my legs, to the extent that I cannot walk unassisted. For the most part I’ve loved them, but there are two things that could be improved and that is the grip- I do occasionally slip because they don’t work well on a lot of floors (basically anything tile) and they’re open around the forearm so I have to lean them against something if I need my hand which can be difficult every single time I have to open a door.

ku_coyote: Understand that these are not your high end ergonomic orthopedic crutch. For those you will pay four times the cost of these. In this price range these are quite good. They don’t have the solid feel that the high end ones do, but don’t feel rickety either. I have used them for a couple days now and feel it is my arms/shoulders that don’t quite have the strength yet that contributes to my instability feeling, not the crutch. The handles are more formed than a basic handle but not as much as a truly ergonomic handle would be. They are definitely light in weight.

Instructions for adjusting the height really should be included with these. It would eliminate a lot of confusion. Please read the comments of others looking for a good set of instructions that indicates height adjustments of 1”, because it can. On the exterior all you see are the two holes, but those are the base points.

For short term crutch requirement (a couple of months), I am fine with these. If I had a long term need (permanent disability) I would look in a higher price range.

EmilyEmily: I just received these in the mail and not only do they only have two heights which is a bit annoying since they are either too short or too tall but they are both different heights entirely which makes walking with them very awkward and hard on the back

Kat: These are absolutely perfect, just what I need! A bit pricey, bit compared to similar products these are a great price. I was able to get purple too! They are sturdy, well made, lightweight & adjustable. I'm 5"4 and the first setting works for me. Love them! Thank you!!!

Ira: I don't usually write reviews but there aren't enough reviews on crutches, especially about durability.
I've only recently, in the last months, have I really started using these crutches for non-weight bearing, but for the last year or so, I have used them as an ambulatory crutch user, moreso using only one crutch. I've used them at least a few hours every weekday for the last month or two.

My body specifications:
My elbow height, with my forearm parallel to the ground, with my shoes on, is about 39 or 39.5 inches.
Height is 5' 6.5"
I weigh around 120 pounds.

Pros:
Nothing significant has broken, even crutch tips look good still, and are sturdy (I mostly use them on tile).
I didn't even know this but the crutch tips actually have metal in them, which may be why they're quite durable.
They're pretty easy to adjust, and the inner tube has holes spaced about 1 inch apart from each other.

The thing to note about adjustment for this is that there are 2 external holes. So if the top external hole doesn't work for you on all of the inner hole settings, then you can use the bottom external hole with the inner tube holes to make the crutch...
