GBMy favorite cane of all time! I love this cane. Very well thought out. It has a padded grip, and comes with a flashlight for night walking. (Anyone who has studied balance issues knows that using your vision is very important for balance so night walking is more difficult making the attachable flashlight very handy. Plus the cane is lightweight and attractive. The only downside is that it is easy to knock over!

GBBrilliant Product! I spend a lot of time outside (gardening, caring for horses and dogs, walking etc) on uneven surfaces. The unique design of the base means that each of the 3 points of contact individually adjust to the terrain, providing much more stability than a cane with a single point of contact. Also it easily stands on it's own on uneven surfaces, which is a big plus when I need both hands to work with something. The cane is right where I left it and ready to go when I need to move to a different location.

GBGreat cane! My husband has Parkinson's and has tried many canes. I got this for him last year and it's the only one he uses now. The end caps wear out quickly, so order extra to begin with or they should send extras like they sent extra springs to begin with.

GBGiving Away My Old Canes Having owned many other traditional canes and some that were supposed to stand on their own I was a little apprehensive to get a new cane that could have turned out to be gimmicky. The FlexSTICK is no gimmick. The ability to stand on it's own on less than perfectly level ground is simply one of the great features of the cane. The shock absorbing and self adjusting legs, locking collars (no clicking noises when walking), and included flashlight all add to the practical usefulness of this cane. Even though it's very lightweight it still feels sturdy and stable. It is very easy to adjust everything from the height to the right or left-handed option and even the firmness of the springs. No tools needed. The best part? The excellent stability and reduction of fatigue in my arm. I'm giving away my old canes because after using the FlexSTICK I would have a hard time going back to them.

GBPat loves it, Mike won't touch it. Well meaning wife buys for husband with intention Essential Tremor who has developed balance disorder. Wife loved it, showed it to husband who will not touch or try ugly, too much cane. I am not returning Flexstick cane, it does not take up much space and hasn't eaten a thing. Since it is so adjustable to accommodate height and left or right handed use it will remain at our home for a spare for our very large family. Thanks for your website and for answering all my questions before my purchase.
