110913 Stocking Donner 1 Each

This item was the best solution for my elderly father to be able to put on his own compression socks! They are quite tight, and if we weren't there to help him, we didn't know how he would get on the socks he needs to wear every day. This device took a bit of practice to turn the device backwards to load the heel pointing away from your body around the curved frame, pulling toward you while feeding the sock to the frame. Then turn it around, place on floor while bracing on a walker or table, and my father stands and simply steps in to the donner, sitting down to finish pulling the sock up to his knee. It is a little work, but he says it is very manageable and worth the effort to be able to put on his socks himself! This device looks strange but works great!

Recommended by a friend who has similar needs for compression socks. This tool as simple as it is provides an easy method for putting them on without using a few good choice words! Awesome!

The Donner appears to work as advertised. However, for me it just didn't work. I have thick calves and my legs were a little too thick to go through it well. Also, I am not quite flexible enough to use it properly-- you need mobility to bend over more than I can. So for an average-sized person without bending limitations, I'd say it would work well as advertised. Just not for me.

I've had this model since 2018. It works, but since I'm 6'3", I have rather large feet. So, I have to do some minor contortions to get my foot through it. Until now, I've just lived with the inconvenience. I'm going to order another, larger one. But since Jobst apparently only makes one size, I'll go with a different brand.

This donner is truly amazing. As a senior citizen who was struggling to put on my compression socks, but the Jobst Donner that I just purchased now make is so easy. Highly recommended.

I work with elderly people and was looking for a sock aid that could help don support stockings. I was leery of the construction, given that support stockings are very tight and you have to really exert pressure to get them on. It held up for the first try but everyone should be aware that having an elderly person use this is ergonomically impossible. Older folks can’t sit, reach to their feet with both hands and pull using this tool. Try it. It’s very hard to do. This had to go back, but the dealer charged a restocking fee so I didn’t get a full refund. Not impressed.

If you wear support/compression stockings on a regular basis, this device will change your life, in a very positive way. The way I use it is to thread the stocking onto the unit, then insert my foot while standing, stabilizing myself by facing my easy chair, and placing my hands on the armrests of the chair.

I received this today, and just opened it 15 minutes ago. I knew how to use it because of the video on Amazon so I did not have to read instructions. I put my compression knee high sock over it, pulled it down all the way so the toe was at the very top. I couldn’t do it in a sitting position. I didn’t have the strength in my back or arms to lean forward and lift my leg, so I had to do it from a standing position I just stuck my toe in there and make sure it was snug and then I just pushed my foot all the way through it was so easy. Every single day I fight to get these on because of the arthritis in my hands now granted these aren’t the support stockings I’m supposed to be wearing. I actually haven’t been wearing them because I can’t get them on literally cannot get them on and my husband can’t even help me get them on they’re so tight so I haven’t tried it with those yet , but these Dr. Scholl support stockings that feel very good and always stay up went right on. Such a simple non-electrical device just took so much stress off my life and almost brought me to tears. I just looked at it this inanimate object and said thank you…thank you ! I can’t imagine that it’s not going to do any less with the super tight support stockings I’m supposed to be wearing. Thank you to the creator of this device.

The best thing i have found for putting on support stockings. I think this should be promoted in all drug stores and nursing homes. There a lot of people have a problem putting ontheir socks. I have not tried with socks but I bet it will work

Muy buen auxiliar para personas de la 3ra edad, siguen sintiéndose independientes.

makes life easy
