MedlineQuad Cane, Small Base, Black - Reliable Mobility Aid for Stability and Balance, Supports up to 300 lbs, Pack of 2

We purchased this after my wife's physical therapist recommended this type of cane for her. It was substantially less expensive than any number of quad canes we ran across elsewhere so we were a little suspicious. Still, thanks to Amazon's buyer protection policies, we decided to take a chance and buy this one. Once it arrived our doubts quickly disappeared. It was exactly what we needed. This cane works great and my wife in fact prefers it to the heavier stainless steel quad canes used in her rehab hospital. This cane is lightweight, yet quite strong. It has yet to slip regardless of surface. We plan to buy another one soon so that we will always have a backup.

Got this as a re-order for a friend who has had good experience with the first cane she got several years ago. Re-orders tell you something about the quality of the product and the user's satisfaction level. The re-order was for use in a multi-level home, so a cane doesn't have to be hauled from one floor to another. Note that the first cane still works fine after many years' use, which is even more impressive when you see the low price of the cane. The four-pronged base lends great stability to the cane, which is fully adjustable with height.

Well made and study, yet fairly light weight! Bought this for my petite elderly mother who is vision impaired and she feels so much more confident when walking in the house as opposed to using a conventional cane. Even managed a single step to the patio quite well!

Works well and stands on carpet or hard floors. Easy to use and adjustable. Firm support, better than a one foot support cane.

My mom is elderly and has fallen a few times. This cane gives her a great deal of confidence in herself. It gives enough support to make her feel more stable. It's light weight and works great. She still sometimes forgets to take it with her but she's getting better at that. That's just getting into the habit. I suggested she put it by the door. Being adjustable also makes it great to adapt to any height.I would recommend this can to anyone. The 4 feet on it give it much more stability.

This cane is solid and met our expectations. My dad liked it and it was easy to set to his correct height. The physical therapist let us know that it also has a different setting based on whether you use it with the right hand or the left and that helped a lot too. The good news is that he does not really need a cane at this time!!

I got this as a second cane for my mom. I had originally bought an almost identical one from CVS for about twice the cost. When I saw the price on this one I thought, what the heck. Once I got it I knew why there was a price difference. This cane is LIGHT. It is not as heavy and sturdy as the one I got at CVS. It is good enough I suppose but if you want a slightly more sturdy cane I'd shop around. It still does the job but for my mother, who has trouble walking and with her balance, a heavier cane is best. If you want a simple, light cane with four feet (which is sturdier than a single foot cane) this might be a good choice.

I bought this for my mother after she fell and broke her hip. We have 2 steps down into the family room, where she spends most of her day. There is no room to put in a ramp. The 'normal' cane with the broader base may be more stable on flat ground but it barely fit on the step and I was afraid she would be absentminded one day and forget to place it properly. This cane fits easily on the step. This is all she uses it for (she uses a walker on flat ground) so it is just what she needed. I did have a little difficulty figuring out how to rotate the handle so the flat side of the 4 prong base was on the correct side. The instructions for that adjustment should be included. It may be a no brainer once you figure it out but it was not to me when I first tried to do it.
