Drive Medical RTL10365-ADJ Adjustable Lightweight Folding Cane with Seat, Black

I had a major heart attack right after Christmas, but I wanted to get back to an active lifestyle as quickly as possible. This chair cane was just what I needed. I found that in my early recovery period, I got tired very quickly. This chair cane was/is light enough and easy enough to walk with that it was just when I needed when there were no benches or chairs around. This gave me the freedom to explore that I would not have had otherwise. When unfolded, the chair is quite comfortable for short periods. I wouldn’t want to sit on it for several hours, but for 30 minutes or so it was very fine. My wife even made use of it and she enjoyed it. I’m writing in the past tense because I have recovered enough that I don’t need this any more. But it is useful enough and comfortable enough that I keep it in my car, ready for whenever I need or want it. One very small downside. It does take some practice walking with this as a cane because all three legs are very tighly folded together. You have to learn how to plant the back leg, walk forward, and let the cane roll onto the front leg. No problem at all once you get used to it. Just be sure the seat is firmly snapped into place. This is a great tool and I don’t think I would have been as far along as I am in my recovery without it.

As good as expensive ones, worked perfect to baby my over stressed back. Get right up and walking. Can even use in uneven shower floor, to wash my feet. 72 and gettin younger and improving my gut health.

Useful if used properly and carefully per instructions. Small hard plastic seat gets uncomfortable quickly so not for extended periods.

I got this because I have a problem with standing for even a short amount of time. I really looked at a lot of different adjustable height cane seats before deciding to get this one. The only problem I had was figuring how to adjust it, which should have been a no brainer. I finally just pulled the legs down till the adjustment pen popped out, then lined it up with the hole i needed. It is very stable to set on and use. The seat doesn’t brush against my leg when I use it as a cane. It is very easy to raise and lower the seat. It is also lightweight. I could not be happier. I am 83 years old, a woman, 5’9” tall and weigh 125#. The seat is comfortable and just the right size.Update. I used my cane today when I went to pre vote. There was a long line in front of me. I used it a few times in line, when I got inside to vote I was able to set down to register and when I went in to vote, I stood up at first, but had to set down to finish it. It really made a difference.

I bought this for a 95-year-old man, for use on hard surfaces such as roads, sidewalks and store floors. He tried it out first in the yard. The feet promptly went into the dirt and he nearly fell. This predisposed him to dislike it, so we ended up in an extended discussion of its use. He tried it in the house and had the same problem others had. He didn't know he had to straddle it, and the instructions were not clear. Once he got onto it correctly, he discovered he was too weak and shakey to get up from it easily.The cane will not go to waste. The purpose is to get him walking and strengthen his legs, but now we know we have to start with the Costco folding seated walker to build up his strength. We have others who can use it also, if they choose, but they are a bit put off by his struggles.Conclusion: This cane requires a certain amount of physical conditioning, and/or assistance from others. Folded, it does its purpose. It is light weight. Open, it provides a seat for those who wear slacks, but I doubt anyone in a skirt would use it. While somewhat awkward, it is sufficiently well balanced to hold someone. The main limitation is the user's physical ability and awareness of potential problems. It would help if the description included this information. As a spectator or shopping stool, it would be very useful.

I LOVE using this product. I sit on it instead of the sidewalk when I wait for my Round Rock Rides transportation.It is lightweight, so it’s not hard to carry, as I run my errands. I highly recommend it to EVERYONE who has to arrive early for their rides and/or has any reason to stand in long lines!!!!

Because of a health issue limiting my ability to stand, I take this seat everywhere...shopping, traveling by plane or train, etc ...anywhere I might get caught having to stand. It slips open fairly quickly & easily and supports my 5'9" average build well. I've had many people ask where they can buy one. For obese individuals I would not recommend. Also, as instructed, it works best if straddled...thus it's not the best for a woman wearing a dress. It fits into an overhead compartment on a plane but not into a large suitcase. The plastic caps on each leg tend to wear away and also to fall off, despite my having glued them in place

Great seat for smaller locations like queuing lines. Sturdy to sit on. But walking with it for support was a little tricky to figure out. Still overall a great item to have.
