Amazing!!!
Due to ADHD related sensory issues, my toes are extra picky and I require shoes with wide toe boxes. I bought cute Converse shoes that I thought would work well for my toes, but they ended up being slightly too narrow in the toe box. The photos made them look like they had a more rounded toe. Bummer deal!Instead of returning them, I wanted to try and figure out how to stretch the toe boxes a bit. The rest of she shoe fit very nicely, so I wanted to make sure I found a solution that only addressed the toe box. I saw info online that said to get your shoes wet and stuff socks into them, put a bag of ice inside the toe box and put them in the freezer, etc. But I’m too lazy for all that! Plus those tricks don’t always work.I found these stretchers and, while pretty skeptical, decided to try them. I had low expectations, but was surprised at how sturdy and well made they were. The wood is high quality, and the metal cranks and screws cranked smoothly and flawlessly. There are little plastic pieces you can add in case you have corns or need a bit more stretch in specific spots.I let my shoes sit with the stretchers in them for two days before trying them on. They fit PERCECTLY. The toe boxes are now wide enough to where my toes have plenty of room, and the shoes aren’t damaged at all (I was very careful about not cranking the stretchers too hard, but hard enough to get some solid stretch action going). I didn’t add heat, get them wet, or do anything besides let them sit. It’s day 5 of wearing the shoes and they are still stretched out and are now my most comfortable shoes.I highly recommend these shoe stretchers! I wish I had found these long ago… it would have saved me many returned shoes. But do be careful about the pressure you put into stretching your shoes, as some shoes aren’t of the highest quality and seams may burst as you crank the widening parts.Side note - these can also be used as shoe and boot shapers. My husband is able to use them to keep his leather work shoes in good condition without creases while he shines them or when he isn’t wearing them.

Easy to use' well made
Works great. Easy to use and greatly reduces the break in period of new shoes. Have wide feet and the little plastic nubs help to stretch and makes the shoes comfortable quickly.

Good, not great
These work for the price. They aren’t great because the do dads that you put on the holes are like Mr Potato head parts and if you can align them to where you need the widening, they are great. Not the most expensive, but for simple shoe stretching do the trick.

These are worth the extra cost if you need to mold the shoe.
These are very adaptable and easy to use. They have saved my golf shoes and allowed me to prevent a pressure area on a toe nail area that has been a problem. These are much more effective than the standard spring loaded shoe shaper.

Ok. But they didn't work great for me.
Didn't work Great for me. I had them on the shoes for over 24 hours but they still didn't stretch them at all. I got them because they allegedly stretch the shoes lengthwise & sideways. They were relatively easy to adjust, but definitely NOT TOO EASY; or that would have alerted me to the fact that they MAY not work. They were leather ladies shoes. No smell from the stretchers, (or for that matter, my shoes!)

They do the job
Great stretcher. Used them to stretch out a pair of golf shoes. Works as advertised. Sturdy build.

Does the job, but not as sturdy
Easy yo use. Does the job, but not as sturdy as I'd expected. Stretched the shoes, but parts got really lose.
