Hip Kit 4

I could not bend down prior and after my surgery. 3weeks post op I can but during the time I couldn’t I used the extended arm grabber exclusively. My kids call it the Claw! I will reference the extended arm as the Claw. I bought the set of tools thinking I would use each but only used the Claw. Every tool in the set are good quality. For me this was worth the money even though I didnt have need for the other tools. It’s nice to know I have them if putting on my shoes become difficult. I’m a Birkenstocks chick so everything just slips on without assistance. The claw is light, has a metal stick at the end to hook onto things. A tiny magnet that helps pick up light metals (mine fell off on day two of use) and a textured claw to pick up small light things like candy wrappers or heavier items like a water bottle or clothes on the floor. The Claw is a must have for laundry help. I keep the Claw close by like i do my phone. I give this product a 10 of 10

The shoe horn seemed a bit short to be of much use to me. The sponge was super handy. The grabber works pretty decent, feels a little on the flimsy side but so far it has served the purpose. A few times I have had to manually fix the end where it slightly goes to side n won’t open backup, but overall it has been a good grabber. The clothes helper has been good but I have found myself using the grabber more for pulling up clothing. The star is the sock helper in my mind. I have had trouble bending for socks/shoes for years and there is a little learning curve but after a few tries it becomes easy. Just make sure you get the sock all the way on/ the toe is completely as far back as you can get it and should have no trouble. Overall this was very handy and I am really glad I bought it. If you are having any kind of hip or probably knee surgery I would recommend.

It was recommended by my PT person that I purchased this product after having a major back surgery. I like the length of the shoehorn and it is very helpful to get shoes on as well as picking things up with a little extra hook on the end. The grabber tool or cloth tool works really well in the very beginning but now several weeks later, it seems to be wearing out a little bit. It just doesn’t seem to have that grip to hold onto things as it did in the beginning. I wear short socks, so unfortunately, the sock tool does not help with the type of socks that I have but once winter comes if I still need it, I will have it for my longer socks. But if not, use the bathing sponge because I already have something that I like much better

Bought this kit after I had back surgery it was very useful and helpful. Would recommend for people having back surgery.

I had my left knee left femur and left hip replaced all at once and and I bought this to help me get dressed and stuff like that this has been a absolute Lifesaver I don't know what I would have done without this it works very good and helping me get my clothes on and stuff like that whoever thought of this was a genius thank you it saved my life really it did great product and a great price I love it

I had a hip replacement a few months back. My wife was having difficulty with the compression stockings. The sock tube is the best ! I used the hook rod to help get dressed, didn’t need my wife to help me with my underwear ; ). The bath sponge helped washing my lower limbs and back. Long shoe horn- I’m still using for my everyday shoes. I highly recommend this kit for anyone who is getting or has had a hip replacement.

I am 80 y.o. and suffer from a back injury which makes bending extremely painful. For the time since my injury my wife has faithfully put on and taken off my socks. Shoes are no problem since I own two pairs of Kizik step-in shoes (wonderful purchase!) Although she never complained I wanted to free her from this task and by chance a friend told me about an item that would put on my socks...wow! I immediately ordered this kit and the "sockomatic" (what I named it) is there, along with a stick that can remove the socks. Also included is a pickup wand that allows one to pick up items from the floor without bending. If you have the aforementioned problems I have then this kit is for you. It will set you free from seeking help in doing procedures other folks do with ease. TMc

I had major back surgery 2 weeks ago and ordered this "hip-kit" as it was suggested by my occupational therapist as I am not allowed to bend, lift, twist for the following 4-6 more weeks. The sock application helper is 1 off the items that I found very useful, as was The longer shoe horn. The other item I was skeptical of but found very helpful was the clothing hook and the other side of that same item for picking up clothes while I'm getting dressed. The grabber is a very mandatory item with those restrictions, as anyone in with arthritis dizziness or anything else that might keep you in from bending over your to pick something up from the floor. I'm 6 foot tall and this grabber was too short. I find I'm most dissatisfied with the extended sponge for bathing assistance. The sponge bends and folds over giving you a less than satisfactory scrub. If I were going to order again I'd find a set with a luffa or soft brush.
