Fantastic product suffer with sciatica and I can now get socks on easily. I bought 2 so have been able to use both to get a pair of tights on for the first time in months.

I had one previously and gave it to my 91-year-old father; so pleased to have a replacement of my own...! It is one of the better ones on the market. I recommend it!

I am finally able to put my socks on after years of not being able to thanks to this device. It absolutely takes a bit of finagling to figure out how best to use it for you and will probably vary depending on what your limitation is.Once I realised I needed to put the entire sock on almost the full length of the device instead of bundling it up like you would if you were putting on a sock by hand it made it tons easier to get on.Ribbons aren't super well secured, as in I can hear the stitching straining but so far it hasn't ripped and I've used it about 20 times over 2 months.So very happy to have this, wish I knew if it could be washed as it is fabric and having contact with feet regularly I imagine will eventually make it a bit gross but I worry washing it in the machine may break the interior supports so it may have to be a sink wash when it becomes unavoidable.If you think there's even a chance this could help you please buy it. I hesitated for over a year and I'm sure at least some of those months I could've used it successfully. If you can point your foot enough to get it in the slot and if you have enough arm strength to pull with tension then this may work for you.

Bought this for my 83 year old mum. Was going to get the more expensive one with the more rigid foot part but some reviews said it wasn’t good for wide feet so got this one instead. She finds it very easy to use. Haven’t given it 5 stars as it will probably tear over time as you have to pull it quite hard. We’ve double stitched the part where the straps attach to the main part to stop this happening. My mum is not one for gimmicks and gadgets so praise from her for this is high praise indeed!!

This works surprisingly very well. I was sceptical because it looked huge when I opened the packaging but, providing you have a bit of strength to pull the cords, it assists very well with putting socks on when you have a foot that does not always cooperate with putting them on the usual way! Or if bending down is an issue then I think this is the gadget for you.

5 STAR

I bought this just to try as an alternative to the three pronged ones, which are good but don't necessarily last that long and it is a bit variable whether they pull the sock all the way over the foot (I have about a 60% success rate at putting them on and they often go on twisted). I can't comment on longevity of the product yet, as only had it about 2 or 3 weeks, but can say that it is incredibly efficient at getting the sock over the whole foot. I have not had a single failure yet. I think this works well because the foot is enclosed on three sides by the unit, and it feels a bit odd the first couple of times, but it works well for me. I am really happy with the product and expect it to be the one I use from now on. Be aware that it may be slightly more bulky than the three prong ones to pack in a small suitcase because it contains tubing, but this is a very minor concern and not one that would ever stop me using it (for instance you can pack your socks into the unit). Great product and highly recommended.

This will be my 3rd one over 12 years. Easiest one I have ever used. Might cost a bit more that others, but you can't beat this one.
