Stylish, lightweight, sturdy
I bought this cane for myself for transitioning from a walker after breaking my upper right leg (femur) and kneecap. The light comes in very handy when walking into a dark room. I found it bright enough to see to find a lamp or lightswitch in a room. The cane is easy to assemble and I had no problems adjusting the height or installing the batteries. The cane itself is very stylish and I love the purple color and the small sparkling accents. I feel that it is sturdy and yet lightweight and I feel safe using it. The sections seem to be tight and secure when assembled. The handle is comfortable. I wanted a cane that would stand on its own and this cane does that, however it has fallen over several times after being lightly bumped, even after being set on even surfaces such as hardwood floors. Perhaps a four-footed cane with a larger base would have been less tippy, but I wanted something with a small base so as not to get in the way of my feet when walking. The smaller base also works well for going up and down stairs. A nylon carrying case and binder was included for travel purposes, but I leave mine assembled and ready for use. Overall I am pleased with this cane and I am glad that I purchased it.UPDATE: After using this cane for several more weeks, the light started to act like a strobe and then finally quit altogether. Installing new batteries did not fix the problem. Amazon was great at issuing a replacement cane however, which I received prior to having to return the old one. Hopefully the light on this one will last longer.

Unstable and scary
I loved that fact that it was actually the correct height for me. Finding a short cane/walking stick is difficult. Unfortunately, I use my cane for support and balance. This cane is really wobbly and I’m really not sure why anyone would use is. It would not be good for balance and it is too wobbly to use for support. I suppose if you want to look cool, but there are definitely cooler looking walking sticks. I will be continuing my search for a cane that is my height that can actually assist me when my arthritis flares up.

Good balancer
Not sure if the questions asking about this cane's stability are its ability to stand on it's own or how stable I feel using it. In the former category, it's a 50/50 if it stays on the feet. It should prolly have 4 instead of 3. However if it's the latter, I can honestly say I like the way it helps me balance myself.I can't count how many times this thing has been knocked over or fell over, even landing on the light fixture. But that light is as bright as ever.When I'm walking, I sometimes feel like the foot is bending off the pole. I didn't think that part was able to bend or come apart like the rest of it, so it makes me a little worried sometimes when I walk.Using the cane has helped me see where my imbalance is, even tho we don't know why it's there. As first canes go, this is a good pick.

Lightweight and sturdy
I hurt my back lifting something heavy and could not walk for a few days without a cane. The cane came in quickly, went together easily and worked well. I was able to easily adjust it to fit my height. The flashlight was actually really handy when I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. It felt sturdy and secure while I was walking with it. The only complaint I have is that it did not stand up well on its own and would fall over when not in use. I also liked that when I was done using it I could fold it back up and easily store it.

A wonderful cane. It works!
The cane actually will adjust to 30” and not that many will at the best it will be about 4” too tall. In other words “short” is comfortable with this cane. The LED light off and on button is on the top no more having my cane dangle in the air as I search for the button on the back of the LED. It is a light weight which is great when you have things to carry. It will stand on its on no tipping over just as you start to look at something. Sturdy I seem to drop it every time I get near it the paint and the LED have remained perfect. Also it can handle my weight 179 lbs. Finally the price is great I intend to purchase another one. It is so comfortable for me.

Exceptional Value
This cane is a truly exceptional value. We have purchased one for each of our mothers and both could not be more pleased. The price is so good one can’t help but question what the quality might be, but it is definitely high quality. This is just a rare exceptional value. Do not hesitate to buy. You will not be disappointed.

Works great, great price
I used the original hurrycane to death, I replaced with the new improved, was ran over by accident, needed a replacement, so this one, tried it and I like it better, I’m 5’10” 160 lbs works great for me, it’s very light weight so I’m not sure if it would be good for someone heavier, but I need the ankle like rotator at the bottom, regular canes, are scary for me, this stands up on its own, and when I wear this one out I buy another, I’m buying another just to keep in my car, for an emergency,

Best Cane I've ever had
This cane is greatl. Four pronged foot with an universal joint so it isn't stiff but easy to use. Easy to height adjust. Flashlight with easy installation. Great fit. Overall very very happy with it.One tiny complaint. I carry mine in my bag that is attached to my wheelchair. Perhaps a loop/hook type strap that would tie it together when it's folded up on the next design.
