3.0 out of 5 stars Only fair, but packable, February 23, 2009

I bought an expensive collapsable trekking pole to take on a trip to Machupicchu, only to discover that it wouldn't fit into my carry-on suitcase. As it turns out, nearly every one of the expensive collapsable walking sticks - which are supposedly designed for carry-on luggage - are about 1 inch too large for that purpose. Go figure. Plus, many travel sites claim that TSA (the airport security folks) won't let those sticks in the cabin.

So, I bought this item. It is nicely compact and very easily transported. No problem getting it through TSA. My only complaint is that the connections become a little loose and flimsy. It's just not that sturdy. Then again, it's a trade off between this packable trekking stick and more durable ones that would have to be checked at the airport.

This trekking pole is great for my husband who is elderly. It is light, collapses into a small size so is handy for local walking and long walks on trips. Packs well into a suitcase. Prevents him from falling when walking on uneven ground or where there are holes. Great product for people of all ages who walk or hike.

The collapsible trekking hiking staff pole is compact, convenient and sturdy. It was a gift given to my new husband on our hiking honeymoon trip. It saved his leg muscles(per his quote) especially when coming back down the 7000 foot trail from Ramsey Cascades in The Great Smoky Mountain National Park. It packed nicely into his carry on suitcase as well. Good product.
