Just What I Need!
I feel very secure when the ground is not level. I like the flashlight for those trips to the bathroom at night and love that it stands on its own.
We exist to help people walk better. The FlexSTICK walking cane is the most dynamically stable and comfortable walking cane available. Three shock absorbing legs provide you with a sure grip on the ground regardless of the changes in the topography. Developed with the help of a physical therapist to solve the problems other canes create.

My husband has Parkinson's and has tried many canes. I got this for him last year and it's the only one he uses now. The end caps wear out quickly, so order extra to begin with or they should send extras like they sent extra springs to begin with.

Thanks, Helen! Our rubber tips usually wear very well and last quite a while. We had a few FlexSTICKs that shipped out last year with 'soft' feet that wore really fast. We are happy to provide a new set to anyone who had these soft feet. We found that the 'soft' ones wore out in 3 months or less. Call or email us for free replacement feet! 888.556.6948 [email protected]

Shipped in a reasonable time frame. Cane works, little awkward but maybe it just takes time getting use to it and using it properly.

The FlexSTICK does 'feel' different than any other cane on the market, as it is truly unique. It is similar to when cars began having power steering. Many people didn't like the 'squishy' feeling and swore they'd never drive a car with power steering. When you lean on a FlexSTICK for the first time, the 'give' is very different than the rigidity of all other canes. However, like power steering, once you become accustomed to the feel, you actually have more control and stability than other canes, not to mention the comfort! It also noteworthy to mention that the 'feel' is customizable, adjusting the feel from soft, to regular, firm and extra firm, depending on your balance & comfort needs. Our customers, like Pamela below, tell us that the more they use it, the more the love it.

It took some getting used to, but now I really love my Flexstick cane. It's much sturdier than a straight cane and I feel secure using it. I love the purple color also. I'd recommend you try it out and see if it's good for you, too.

I love my flexstick. I had to replace a rubber tip as I pulled it off after putting it in a shopping cart.. Response and shipping were prompt. Would recommend this company and product to anyone. Cheryl

The flexstick that I paid $150 Canadian for is no better than the quad cane that I paid $20 Canadian for.Actually the $20 quad cane that I have is more stable than the flexstick. They claim that it doesn't tip over and fall like other canes. This piece of junk tipped and fell so many times each day, the light bulb in the flash light broke. Do yourself a big favor. Don't fall for their scam like I did. If there are good reviews about it, then the posters of these reviews were paid to do so.

Hello Mifleh, Thank you for your review and honest reply. We take all of our customers' comments seriously so we can improve the FlexSTICK. We've made several changes since we first began shipping the FlexSTICK. The FlexSTICK is designed for Dynamic Stability, that is 'stability while walking'. It is considerably lighter than quad canes and while it can be knocked over, it does stand on its own, which customers love, even more than we anticipated.We have a full money back guarantee and have refunded many customers that found that the FlexSTICK was not the right product for them. The FlexSTICK does not fit everyone's situation and some who get it actually need to be on a walker or wheelchair. We are many things, but, a 'scam' we are not. All of the posts are from real customers, like you. We are easy to get in touch with via phone or email. Please do not hesitate to call if you want to discuss. 888.556.6948 toll free. Ask or Jamie. or email me at [email protected]. Thank you again for your frankness.

I like being able to stand my Flexstick upright alone and its self-adjusting legs. I do find that I have to be careful not to kick the base when I walk. I've tried adjusting it, but still kick it occasionally and am afraid I might trip and fall. Suggestion: make snap-on prong attachments for the bottoms of the legs for slippery, icy surfaces.

I HAVE HAD SEVERAL DIFFERENT CANES, BUT MY FLEXSTICK WITH MY FLASHLIGHT IS THE ANSWER, I HAVE TWO OF THEM JUST IN CASE...WM
