I love this beautiful cane! I like how light weight it is. It is comfortable to use. I had back surgery 6 weeks ago and just stopped wearing my back brace. Now I am using my cane when I am out and about to make sure I keep stable while my back continues to heal. Like my doctor said, a cane also alerts other people to give me a little more room. I want to comment about having the cane cut down. I followed the instructions on how to know what length you need your cane to be cut down to. I am 5'4" and sent instructions to have it cut to 32". When my cane arrived, it measured 35". I don't know if that was just a mistake or that the canes are sent a little longer incase you didn't measure correctly. I'm not sure. The only paperwork included was instructions on how to cut down your cane or if adjustable how to adjust it. Luckily my husband is very handy and cut 3 more inches off and it fits perfectly now! That seemed the best solution. I am very happy with my beautiful cane and it is well worth the price. I am sure that I may need a cane again in the future even after my back is completely healed.
