Drive Medical Deluxe Folding Blind Cane, Reflective Red

This is a great cane, it has reflective red and white stickers and it folds quite compactly. When opened it is quite sturdy. The hollow links are linked together with a thick, heavy duty bungee cord inside. I also like that the ends of the little links have smoothed out edges to prevent the bungee cord from damage. It has a bit of spare bungee on top to be used as a wrist loop. I wish the loop was a bit longer, so it could be used to tie up the links when folded, and not need the included carrying case. The nylon bumper which contacts the ground seems pretty durable and smoothly glides over cement and other hard surfaces but drags a bit on carpet. All in all a good quality cane for blind people.

Easy to put together, works well

My nephew just showed me this cane I had bought for him. I was quite surprised at the quality and appearance. He seems to really like it. He had been going without because no agency would buy him one. That to me is sad! Thank you!

One of my eye's has nerve damage, and both are pretty bad at night. It's takes a little practice, but it's not too hard to get used to using a cane. This one is pretty good. The only real issue I have with this one is that the tip, while it is a hard plastic, isn't particularly durable. Since that's the case, I was hoping it would be easier to replace. Otherwise this would be a five star review.The elastic joining the three sections holds up, the rest of it is fine. Pun slightly intended, it's just the tip.

This was purchased as a gift for a friend on 10/30/14. She LOVES this product. It's more practical than a standard long cane because it fits neatly into her hobo style purse. It's been in constant use for four months and the elastic in the cane snaps into place as if it were new. I suspect it'll be a while before a re-order is necessary.UPDATE: 03/18/15 (one minor issue)Re-ordered this cane on March 16th. My friend received her previous cane long before she was accepted for classes for the blind. The tip wore down due to improper usage. As noted before, the product is well built and the new cane will last a long time as a result of her lessons. The only thing that grabs me is that the 2" cane tip attached is impossible to remove and there are no replacements available that large. Hey, I even checked under chair tip/chair cup replacements. No dice. Would appreciate assistance in learning how to protect the cane tips in order to avoid purchasing a third unit and to keep the first cane as an emergency replacement.

I can't really say how functional it is because I walk fine without it, but it feels good to walk around with it too.

It’s perfect balance and feels great in hand. Tells me where everything is when using it.

I'm super delighted with this product. Initially I needed it really quickly for a cosplay of Terezi, from Homestuck. As in, the Con was coming up and I still hadn't ordered my dang cane yet. I decided to go with this cane and put in my order seeing that the delivery date would be two days before the con. Kinda stretching it but I needed one! Two days later I got a message from Amazon saying that my payment method failed meaning my cane would not be delivered yet. I was pretty stressed out seeing it wouldn't come in time and they wouldn't let me cancel the order. so I looked around at local stores and found a store that did carry it. today I planned on going to get it after breakfast but guess what showed up at my door a DAY after the payment was fixed. My cane. I was extremely happy and despite the payment problems I'm really happy that it came way earlier than expected. Also, it's extremely sturdy and looks perfect.
