Highly recommend!
Love these (well, as much as one can love crutches!). Fold up and fit inside basket of electric shopping cart so you don’t knock items off shelves as you navigate the aisles. Also, flight attendants don’t take them away from you and stow them out of your reach during flights.They take a little breaking in, and are hard to fold at first, but they loosen up pretty quickly. I definitely recommend them. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Made traveling with a broken ankle easier!
These are great. They fold very easily and are great for travel. I was able to store under the airplane seat. Very sturdy too.

Less out-of-pocket, but see comments for safe use.
Half the price of hospital-supplied crutches. Hospital crutches more basic & sturdy. The pads are more comfortable than the stiff, rubbery ones on my hospital crutches & less likely to make hands sore. This is also a hazard: The wing nuts on the handgrips come undone very easily (possibly because the pads are bigger). I would add a small drop of purple loc-tite to threads & consider a lock washer for safety. If you hear squeaks & rattles CHECK the wing nuts, especially if you use them on stairs (not advisable for crutches ever). These foldable crutches are not as easy to break down as you might expect, more for when needing room in a car. Generally good with these cautions. Hospital crutches are very similar & don’t come with lock washers, but do not work loose.

Recommendation based on experience
I have been on crutches five separate occasions in my life, all for six months or more. I have had a lot of experience with crutches and scooters. These crutches are convenient, the folding feature is what sets them apart. What I have found is that knee scooters are best, but don't work for all situations (stairs, rough terrain, getting in and out of cars). The need to have crutches on hand is important, and these crutches are easy to carry and store in a vehicle.

Not as good as hoped for. Unsafe at any speed.
The crutches were very wobbly and unstable. I am 5'9" tall and 220 lbs so maybe I was at the limit of the design but I was not happy with them. Also even though I am not really all that tall, I was at the extreme adjustment of the settings. The ad says good up to 6'1" tall people. Don't believe it!By the way, I have been on crutches full time for 4 years so I am quite adept at using them. These were unsafe in my opinion. They may be serviceable for smaller, lighter people.

thse are worth the money.
Currently using these.. for outdoor use when I can’t use my scooter. They work. They are comfortable under the arms. Great for walking to the garage and such. Mine have been through the mud, etc and still look like new. I haven’t folded them down for travel- mainly b/c I don’t really go anywhere that would require it. I do use them every single day atleast 5-6 times/day. Not sure what I’ll do with them once I get hte cast off my foot…. It’s a love hate relationship with them….

good option for traveling
i guess if you have to travel on a plane or bus, these come in handy.they are a litttle on the weak side, but i am a big guy, so they are probably fine if you are 180 lbs or less.they are a little tricky to assemble. there is a foamy rubber insert inside the tube, and that stops the screw from easily going thru. you need to stick something thru first, like a small diameter wood skewer, to be able to insert the screw
