3.0 out of 5 stars Not the easiest to use, February 15, 2011

Needed something better than a sling to immobilize my right shoulder. The product is cheap enough but it's a case of you get what you pay for. The product is hard to put on by the person who needs to use it especially if they have limited use of one arm. Also it is hard to adjust and so far I have not been able to get it to immobilize my shoulder any better than a regular sling can do. Also because of positioning of wrist support this can lead to wrist pain as forearm is not completely supported like a sling. I would not purchase this product again.

I have seen what the hospital issues to immobilize your shoulder and it is awful. This immobilizer is comfortable and it does the job. I could even get into it with-out help. It would be warm in the summer because it has some padding. Over-all I was very grateful to have found it when I needed it.

This immobilizer works fine once you get it on, but it is bulky, difficult to adjust, and difficult to put on out of the box. The elastic type of immobilizer is better because you can usually get it on yourself and its ten times more comfortable. Presumably, you are looking at this as an upgrade from the one they gave you at the hospital and I am telling you this is a purchase you will most likely regret. It has the proper design elements to immobilize your shoulder better than a standard arm sling, but those elements are so poorly put together that you are better off without it.
