Recently I experienced pain in my back and leg that limited my mobility. I used a walker with some success but it was cumbersome and
difficult at times navigating around the house. Gradually my mobility improved slightly and I thought a cane may be a help. I searched Amazon
and found Medicane which I ordered. In a few days it arrived folded in three sections. I used it immediately and was impressed in the support and confidence it gave me walking. For almost two weeks now it has been constantly at my side and slowly I'm almost ready to go walking out in public again. I 100% endorse this product. Thank you Medicane.
Review Update: I love this cane. For the past few weeks it has constantly been at my side. The Quad foot base is very stable and conveniently stands on its own, I am an 87 year old sr. and recently had a problem with
my left leg. I am slowly gaining my ability to walk again. The cane feels reassuring in my ability to maintain balance. The other day the Quad foot base came off. This is threaded into the tube end of the cane. Upon examining the threads seemed to be stripped. This is a slight flaw in it;s design which the manufacturer should fix. I solved the problem by using epoxy on the threads and reinserting. It has been fine since.
I would recommend this product but be aware of the potential flaw of the Quad foot base coming off.
I bought my mom this cane as she has a degenerate hip and struggles at times walking. She instantly wanted to use it when it arrived. She like that it has the big bottom with suction and it tilting base so she can feel comfortable and it leans with her . She likes that it easily folds up for transport in her car or when travel. I highly recommend this for extra support
I bought this for my mother and she found it comfortable and liked all of its features, especially its self standing capability. The construction seemed very solid even with an adjustable height. I deducted 1 star because a week after daily use, the quad base got unglued/unscrewed from the cane. I didn't find any breaks and the threads seem good. It might be due to the sudden temperature change - we bought it in the cold northeast and then brought it to the tropical south - and nothing that a good heavy-duty glue couldn't fix but its something that the makers should look into and consider strengthening.
Very pleased with this replacement for my HurryCane, which can no longer replace the missing pad. This cane folds very well and can be held in the folded position with the snap on the wristband. Handle is comfortable and the foot comes well in contact with the surface it is used on. I have only had the cane 4 days and do not need it constantly, so it has not been used extensively. I see no problem using it when I may need it more. I will not hesitate to recommend it.
MediCane Folding cane is as described, well packaged, reasonably priced, and good quality. At it's shortest adjustment, it's still about an inch, or so, too long for me, but I'm very short. The tie to hold it when folded, also doubles as a handy tether so I never have to worry about how I'll pick it up off the floor.

I am recovering slowly from a pulled muscle in my leg, and was getting around the apartment by leaning on a wheeled office chair. This little guy has proved to be much more convenient, especially when I have shopping to do. It is super lightweight, and even though it collapses down to a size that will fit in my tote bag, it is surprisingly sturdy.
The cane meets my needs. I especially need it for going down steps as I have missed the last step a few times and have fallen. I like being able to fold it and carry it in my bag when I don’t need it. I also like that it stands alone. I would buy this product again.
Love it! It is reasonably priced and so easy to adjust the size. As someone who needs a cane at too young an age, I find this to be one of the best that I have found so far.
My wife loves it the shape of the handle is more conforming to her hand and when she goes to a musical with her sister she can fold it up and put it into her purse that way people are not tripping on it as they walk in front of her.
The quality and ease of use of this folding cane is excellent. The only criticism I have is that the adjustment levels are for a tall person not a short (5'6") one like me. If could adjust 4 to 6 inches shorter it would be perfect.
