Flexyfoot Shock Absorbing Soft Grip Double Adjustable Crutches - Improve Safety, Improve Grip, Reduce Shocks & Jarring – Pair - Black

I bought these as a birthday gift for my Aunt and was worried that she may not like or want them but when she saw them she was delighted with how nice they looked and when she tried them out she could not believe how much steadier on her feet they made her feel and much more comfortable to hold. I was pleased that only the ferrules had a bit of orange on them and the other orange bits on the stick in the photo were actually black. The reflective ends to front and back of the handgrips are a good idea but shouldn't the front be white instead of red, took a bit of getting used to visually but probably won't even notice after a while. I would say the price is good considering if they last at least five years it would have only cost £11 odd a year.

Brilliant crutches used for 2 years . No jarring very safe . Can replace the bottoms easily when they where. Have since brought a stick from the same company. Recommend to any one.

Theses are truly great the comfort that have given is second to none ..

I ordered these yesterday and delivery was going to be in 3 days, but they turned up today - next day so that is amazing, I can use them straight away. Shame no instructions how to put together - I am new to this so would have been helpful - Here is how I did it, the stick with one hole slots into the one with lots of holes line them up - you will need to remove the bracket as shown in my picture above & it is stiff but does come off, then move the inner stick to desired length and align holes - push the bracket back in - my advice is to do this on one crutch first so you can see on the other one how the bracket was originally assembled before moving on to the next - if that makes sense( the crutches come in two pieces you put them together - they are identical no left and right crutch in pair both are the same with the manufacturer stamp on the left on both - this is how they are suppose to be). One of the brackets on mine does not fully close (*Please see update below) in so the pin does not come out of hole properly, see photo, I even tried with a soft mallet to tap this in but to no avail (time will tell if this means it is not fit for purpose seems to be supporting at moment)The other one is fine. As I have an injured knee I can not return that one to sender plus need the crutches to get about. The black design is simple and much nicer visually than the NHS ones and the foots do absorb better on ground - hard floor indoors - I am yet to try outside - when I do, will send update. The handle is not much different to the NHS ones to be fair maybe slightly softer. I looked at many crutches, these seemed by far the best, the NHS ones lent to me by friend, hurt my wrist and forearms after just a few days, hopefully these will be better. In regards to weight these have the same weight as the NHS ones but others may have a different view on this. I am 5 foot 5 inches about 9 and half stone - placed pin in second hole from top - was unable to adjust the forearm section above as was already on the smallest length slot, my elbow (Wrist to elbow 22 cm length) kisses just above arm bracket so hopefully will not rub, if your length is more then your elbow will bang right on the bracket. Hope review helps. UPDATE: Okay so to my amazement this morning there was a package with another set of crutches from the seller - they did not message just sent me a new set where both pins go okay in crutch (such relief) Wow what a service - I can honestly say I cannot believe they have done this, I will in due course be contacting seller to see if they want the faulty one returned, I can't get about very well at moment but will see if they can get a pick up from my home. Also I have been outside on the concert ground in the rain, and another wow here, these do not slip, plus it is like I am using them on a carpet so much better on wrist and elbows. Thank you to the seller and maker of crutches. Would recommend.

These crutches are a complete game changer they have given my partner the ability to walk about more than she could do with the standard issue NHS ones which became very uncomfortable after time and leave her in agony for hours. It got to the point where as well as the pain for her back and neck the crutches were adding more pain so I had a look around on here and found these and I thought it was worth a try and my partner had her doubts but they are brilliant really comfy and she loves them. The only downfall was one of the shock absorbers started to stick and started to make a farting noise which i found funny but she did not. I contacted the seller and they were fantastic and very good and supplied 2 new shock absorbers the very next day which is top notch service and a brilliant product.

Awesome crutches. If you need crutches, these will not disappoint. They are soo comfortable and gives good support, ,best design ever. So much better than the NHS ones, ( no more shoulder pain) well worth the investment. I know if my knee goes these will support me and stop me falling over. The grips are good to, they have reflective circles on the front of them. Not heavy and easy to use. The flexifoot on the bottom is a great idea. 10/10

Definitely recommend these crutches and this company. The crutches are really comfortable to use and look really nice. The handles are quite soft and not harsh on your hands like the NHS sets. The customer support is absolutely fantastic. I was sent the wrong colour by mistake, contacted the company who promptly replied. Was sent a courier to collect the crutches and received the correct colour the very next day. The person who i dealt with was really lovely and I can't thank them enough for all their help. Definitely recommend 100%

Spotted a lady with them, and asked her about them, she recommended them 100%, now I’ve had them a few years, I would not go back to any others. Sturdy, rounded so know trapping arms in grips. I have recommended them to several people. Definitely worth the money.
