4.0 out of 5 stars Very good quality., January 15, 2007

By	StarGrazer (Horizon) - See all my reviews

I had ordered and received another folding cane for twice the price of a Hugo from Magellan Travel. That one was not as advertised and poor quality. I sent it back, (had to do battle for a full refund and, three months later, I'm still waiting for confirmation), then found this Hugo on Amazon.

This cane is a precision instrument; very well engineered and manufactured. I believe them when they say it's rated for 550 lbs, (now I can loosen my belt). The ability to adjust length has made this cane a perfect fit for me, and relieves painful stress to my shoulder and back. The Hugo comes with a very nice canvas like pouch, which is very handy if you're fortunate to only need it functional intermittently. I wasn't thrilled with the silver finish, but I've come to accept the reflective surface as a safety factor walking across intersections at night.

The one negative is the handle. It's a very hard wood, (not chipped crap like the one from Magellan). I suffer arthritis, weak ankles, periodically combined with a gout attack. During these episodes I'm very dependent on this support; I lean nearly all my weight on it. That's very hard on my hand. The handle is uncushioned, which is typical for this shape, and I should have considered that when ordering. I have not yet looked into alternate handles offered by Hugo, but I doubt they will offer cushioning. I think I'll just have to bear it.

I note Amazon is now offering this cane at 10% less than they charged me; story of my life. Anyway, I thought my purchase was more than reasonable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy, adjustable and attractive, June 17, 2008

By	Cynthia Frakes "truthseeker1958" (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

I have osteoarthritis in both knees, and this cane allows me to navigate stairs and ride the New York subway. What attracted me most to the HUGO Cane is that it's sturdy and adjustable. I'm 5'3-1/2" and able to adjust the height of the cane so that it's a perfect fit for me. I have one in black and silver and both are attractive. Note: HUGO's website has fashionable handles and replacement tips.

4.0 out of 5 stars folding cane, February 25, 2009

By	DIY'er "kenneth" (colonia, nj usa) - See all my reviews

high quality, durable construction. i will use for dressy occassions. the one i already own is more portable, it folds easier and does not spread apart after folding. my wife uses a handicap scooter and stores the folded cane in the scooter basket, without spreading apart.
