RMS Quad Cane - Adjustable Walking Cane with A Large Four-Pronged Base for Extra Stability - Foam Padded Offset Handle for Secure & Comfort Grip - Works for Right or Left Handed Men or Women

This cane is very stable and has saved my butt several times from falling when I have lost my balance. I bought a second one so that I now have a spare cane if my first one ever breaks for some reason. This cane goes everywhere I go because it gives me security and confidence when I’m walking. I will be turning 76 years old in August so my legs don’t work like they used to and I depend on my cane. It stands up by itself so it’s always handy when I’m out shopping.

easy to use

This cane offers sturdy support while going up and down stairs and can be adjusted down to fit people 5 feet in height (wish it had one more notch for 4'11" people). Be sure to rotate the shank so the wider feet are positioned on the outside before locking the height in place. Also, remember not to leave it in the shopping cart. It's desirable enough to steal, even with your name and phone number taped onto the handle!

I have fibromyalgia, and am in pain every day. I need help getting up from bed, the couch, the bathroom, and stairs. The base is sturdy, but does wobble some, it takes some getting used to. The height adjustment is good, and the grip is comfortable. It doesn’t fold up enough für traveling, so I’ll need to get a travel one as well. I would recommend it to someone who needs a little help, but not someone who’s totally dependent on a cane, as it does wobble. I wouldn’t suggest it für very elderly, or people with major balance issues. Good overall, meets my basic need, but will probably need an upgrade as my mobility decreases.

A physical therapist recommended a quad cane, and there was one similar to this at the hospital. The short side goes toward the user, to help stop tripping. The wider side goes on the far side of the user, to give more balance. It takes practice, to get used to, to learn how to keep it away from the feet. The Cardiologist says it’s a tripping hazard, but so far, it’s the only cane that stands in its own on all surfaces. Hubby doesn’t do stairs with it though. It needs to be turned sideways for stairs. Not easy. And he needs it more for balance than support. He also only has 1 hand. So, with this he can let go of it.

Very sturdy, helps my husband. Nice it stands up with the 4 feet. Not packaged very well though, luckily nothing was,damaged.

I already had two canes but neither had enough on the bottom of them to support me when starting to go from a walker to a cane. This has great support and a super soft handle. Still not using it all day because I was using the walker after a hard fall on my back and having something all around me while I walk make me feel secure ..but I decided I needed to get started on a cane in order to work up to one day walking on my own. Scary to start with such a small bottom for support though, so I found this one and I am thrilled with it and the support it gives me. Will soon put the walker away and only use my wonderful new cane until I can walk safely on my own.

The 4 point base is not study enough to trust, it should be bigger.

If I could have given this a 0 star I would have…this product is so poorly made and flimsy that my husband fell the first and only time he used it. It’s a good thing he didn’t seriously injure himself. I do NOT recommend this product at all.
