RMS Premium 7-Piece Hip & Knee Kit with Leg Lifter, 19” & 32” Reachers, Sock Aid, Dressing Stick, Bath Sponge & Shoe Horn – Long-Term Orthopedic Aids for Chronic Hip, Knee & Mobility Limitations

I had hip replacement and this has been the perfect kit. It has 2 grabbers, one long and one short, this helps when one falls on the floor and you need the other to pick it up. The leg lifter is great because it has a wire in it that makes the loop stay open so it’s easy to put your foot in it to lift it into bed or out of bed. I purchased another kit where this item did not have wire in it and it was very hard to put your foot in the loop without help or raising your body past 90 degrees to get your foot in it. The shoe horn is the right length even though I haven’t used it because I’m still homebound and wearing crocs. The sponge on a stick has been very helpful trying to do the bottom half of my surgical leg and foot. Sponges or loofahs in other kits were too short to do much good. The dressing stick has been immensely helpful in taking socks off and is coated in plastic so you don’t injure yourself. Last but not least the item that helps you put socks on is perfect. This kit costs more than some, but totally worth it as all items are functional and useable.

Good quality set came with everything all the tools are in decent condition not cheaper flimsy. I would buy it again

I bought this before going through my hip replacement surgery last year, and my god! This was the best investment I have ever made in myself to help me with getting dressed, and other little things you take for granted until you no longer have the range of motion to follow through with the task at hand. The leg lifter helped a lot of times to move or shift my leg while getting into bed at night, plus it somewhat help to lift my leg during leg lifts, but it proved to be no enough, and I had learn how to lift my leg under my own power. That took time. The back scrubber was helpful in the beginning, but I ended up not using it as much due to having to lean against the wall at times to bathe in the shower. The sock aid was worth the value of the purchase alone. I've always had a difficult time putting on my socks, and having to loop the sock over the foot, which was hard since my leg only came up to my knee sometimes. This left my knee hurting, and leg sore from being out of whack. Putting a sock on the tube, and sliding it on is much quicker, and less stress on my body after my surgery. The shoe horn helps somewhat, but I am able to get into my shoes, easier after my surgery without it. The gripper claws, both sizes come in handy trying to pick up things that fall on the floor or helping to slide grocery bags or food bags from deliveries into my apartment. The weight of the items can be difficult to move, so I have to get my roommate to help with things, but small lighter items, I have very little trouble lifting or moving. It helps to keep me from bending over 90 degrees with my hip until it heals.

Love that there are 2 Reachers, shorter one used most but longer one used to help me dress and reach things higher/farther away. Everything has a logical use. My only complaint is the "wire" used in the leg lifter, it hurts if I use it on my barefoot, & twists when trying to use it other ways but invaluable when trying to put my shoe on left foot, hold my foot & shoe correctly so I can use my long shoe spoon to eventually get my shoe on easier than ever before. Good quality, useful after extensive knee surgeries. Good value for the price. Do recommend.

I had a full hip replacement and it was recommended that I order this kit. WOW! This gave me some degree of independence (my limit was what I could do--not a limit due to these items) and I quickly became thankful I had these items. The sponge on a stick was helpful since I could not reach my legs to clean them in the first few days of my surgery. Simple? Yes! Worked great and gave me some independence as well. I did not wear shoes much (work from home) but when I needed the extended shoe horn, it works every time. I'm still using it and will likely continue for a while more (surgery was 6 weeks ago). I'm impressed with its sturdiness. The grabber is just fun! When I could not bend, I could pick up items so again I didn't need to ask someone to do it. I used it a lot as I was dressing and undressing. The clothing stick was amazing. I was not thinking I would use it, but quickly realized it helped me dress, undress, and then pick up the clothes off the floor. I used it heavily for the first 5 to 6 weeks after surgery (I am in week 7 now). I would guess if your back was sore, this would be something that would be useful! I tried to use the sock tool but continued to fail. I believe that is because I wear compression socks that are REALLY tight. The tool worked great, but getting the sock pulled up was hard (but it is always hard to put on the compression socks). I researched how to use it a lot and it appears that most people were using the tool for non-compression socks--so for the vast majority of people this probably works well and would be very useful even after you are back to normal! This package of tools was a life saver in my recovery. I would ask for help so much during those early days of recovery. These tools allowed me to do a good deal of things "all by myself [said in a 3-year-old voice!]". I was surprised how much I could do thanks to these tools!

I’m an Occupational Therapist and have been purchasing these products for my clients on a regular. The feedback from clients is that it’s made a world of difference to their independence and recovery from knee or hip surgery. The items are good quality and work well. It’s great as a one stop show with everything that’s needed instead of me having to individually look for and purchase items 1 by 1. Please keep re stocking, you’ll be getting repeat orders from me!!

Great experience

Sock aid won’t work it’s to big socks won’t stretch that far. The grabber is very light weight maybe it will work . I think it’s to expensive for what you are getting .

The sock putter on works perfectly. This is me day 4 after a hip replacement.

Wry useful tools not only for hip replacements but following a stroke. I rely on them daily.
