Flexsticks I bought 2 of these canes for 2 ladies. One has Parkinson's and we found that the Flexstick was dangerous. She trips on the tri-pod, so waste of money. The other recipient, 92-yr-old likes it somewhat but still reverts back to her old cane. Both ladies don't feel secure using them. Over all, Flexsticks are very lovely to look at but not too effective and they are very expensive.

Giving 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.

My 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!

I love my Flexstick It took some getting used to, but now I really love my Flexstick cane. It's much sturdier than a straight cane and I feel secure using it. I love the purple color also. I'd recommend you try it out and see if it's good for you, too.

Can Not Use Any Other Cane I have had my FlexSticks for three years and change the sticks on the base. It is fun to have the different colors. The stability of the three points is great when I walk around the farm and woods. I can stand it up or hang it by the loop when I have a job that requires both hands. Great design and the handle is soft but "firm". The light is very useful as it lights the way ahead on the floor for me in the house and I do not disturb anyone with my nocturnal rambleings. I Love Them !
