Questions & Answers
There are two of them in each box.
Packaging consists of 1. The dimensions are 5 x 2 x 4 inches. This cane tip will fit a shaft with a diameter of 3/4".
I don't think so. I would expect them to last longer if they were now manufactured in the United States. I get about three weeks out of each one before it goes bad for me. They aren't the same as the ones that come with a new cane. You might wonder why I keep purchasing them. For me, all of the replacement tips expire after two or three weeks.
Yes, the cane tip had a metal disk inside that lacerated the side of the cane tip after only ten days of use, rendering it useless. I would not purchase a Carex cane tip in the future.
Selected User Reviews For Carex Cane Tip 3/4, Black
BUYING IS A MISTAKE. I've never seen such bad advice. It doesn't last more than two months, and after a month of use, it becomes extremely slippery. I slipped on the wood floor and had 23 stitches in my knee when I went to the emergency room.
They each lasted one week walking on the sidewalk with the tip of a cane. I wish I could have returned them, but I had only used them for a week and they were completely worn out. UNREAL.
The 3/4" cane tip was a perfect fit for my cane. I got two in the box, both of which are black. br>br>For about a week, I was happy and things were fine. My cane tip slid across the floor and I nearly fell face first on my tile floor after a week and a half (almost two weeks). br>br>I looked around for any signs of water or anything else that could have caused the incident, then raised my cane and examined the tip. (See photo)br>br>The "Carex Cane Tip" had already worn out, and the metal disc was protruding through the worn part. br>br>I was shocked. I had previously purchased cane tips from a local drugstore and they had lasted months; however, this one only lasted two weeks. It's a very low-quality rubber. br>br> I'll be honest, I'm extremely dissatisfied. I had to put on a second cane tip, and it's doing the same thing as the first.
But it won't last long. I've only used it for one day and the rubber is already worn out and there's no traction. I wouldn't recommend it unless you really need the cane for balance and traction. br>I'm 6'2" and weigh 190 pounds.
Finally, after purchasing five different cane tips, THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT WILL FIT THE COMMON METAL ADJUSTABLE CANS. Because I'm a bada$s, can't walk, and a lil frugal, the ones I have are from Cvs in Leopard print. I'd worn down the cane past the rubber tip and had fallen when the metal end collided with the cvs's slippery floor. My fault; I wish I could find this in brown to match the leopard, but as I previously stated, I purchased a large quantity, and sellers are notoriously evasive when it comes to sizing. Except for this one and one that hasn't arrived yet. The other three were all a complete waste of time. There isn't much rubber on this one. The cane has now been raised even further. As the adjustment wore down, I had to lower it, but it's now back up. It easily and snugly fits one's head, but it does not fall off. br>br>Tl; Tl; Tl; Tl; Tl; Tl; Tl; Tl; Dr. : A thick, well-fitting cane tip is ideal. (P. ) br>br>(P. ) br>br>(P. ) br>b Make it in brown if at all possible. Thanks.
I had hoped that these cane tips would last a little longer. I've had them for three months and have recently noticed that the "tread" has worn away and the outer rubber rim is peeling away. They are something I use on a regular basis - A gravel driveway can be found outside. They were simple to put on and provided excellent traction. I'm undecided about getting the same thing or looking for something with a wider (and more durable) base.
These cane tips are about the size of toys, measuring 1 1/2 inches tall by 1 inch wide, and you'll be lucky if they last more than a week. The seller makes no mention of the fact that they are so small. They're not the same as standard cane tips. DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THINGS YOU DON'T NEED. br>In my photo, the cane tip on the left is a regular size cane tip, and the cane tip on the right is a Carex tiny cane tip, which is why they sell two cane tips in one box. Believe me when I say that this is not a good deal and that these are not good tips. I'll say it again: DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY if you're dissatisfied with your purchase.
The problem is that they didn't last "very" long, so I wasn't sure I was saving money in the end, and I worried that the frequent wear of the tips could be a hazard (and a pain). As a result, I chose the more expensive Carex brand in the hopes of getting a longer-lasting product. Oh, boy, did I get a shock! br>br>The advice was only good for a week! Use with caution: Only indoors, with a mix of hardwood and carpet, and only for a few hours each evening. In my life, I've tried a lot of different brands, and most of them haven't lasted long. But only for a week! Come on ! Needless to say, I'll keep looking for mildly durable tips (though I'm not expecting them to last for very long).
