Pros & Cons
Pros
This is the sling i was sent home in after surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff. It's made with a mesh - way to clean, quick to dry. The size is true to the chart.
Comes with a removable squish ball to exercise your arm tendons and muscles while your arm is immobile in the cast. The soft squeeze ball is easily removable though never in the way.
Billed insurance 250. No downsides at all with this product. It hs all the basic features of the one i was given plus several more. Well worth the extra cost.
Cons
All velcro connections have pokey and harsh sides. The padding on the neck strap twists and won’t lay flat. The thumb strap is uncomfortably thick and is very hard to get positioned correctly.
Hard pillow with tortuous square edges. Constantly have to readjust length of sling and pillow attachment. The welts, hives and incessant itching it causes is unbearable.
The designer never wore it. the seams in the elbow are extremely rough and pokey. Surprised to see so many positive reviews. Granted, this is the only sling i've ever worn, so maybe the others are just that bad that this thing gets rave reviews.
