Customer Reviews of Futuro Deluxe Thumb Stabilizer, Small-Medium (Pack of 2)
Customer Review: My thoughts on the Futura
Summary: 4 Stars
Recently purchased the Futura thumb splint for rather severe arthritis of the thumb. Had tried several OTC products which were uncomfortable and of little benefit to me. I'd run into a stranger wearing a splint, chatted with him about his reason for, and the product name. He told me he was very satisfied with his FUTURA for arthritis of his thumb, wore it always and even did woodworking with it on, and how I might purchase it through the Internet. He was so enthused about his thumb stabilizer that he took it off for me to try it on, large though it was! A walking talking advertisement! I have two smaller stabilizers of my own now, wear one at night, and often during the day. Far superior to other products I've used. It is comfortable, reasonable, and provides relief. Certainly worth trying! Carol, Hartland, WI.Customer Review: Not Perfect; Helps My Thumb, But Needs Better Adjustment Control
Summary: 4 Stars
1. My right thumb needs to be restricted so it does not move toward my palm. The Futuro does a pretty good job; but, the adjustment strap is not long enough to restrict the thumb as much as I would like.
2. It does allow me to do many things while I'm still wearing it. It does help keep the thumb out of the way.
3. If I tighten the wrist band as much as I need, the band slips down to my bare arm, and it looses all wrist control. It is also rather difficult to put it on without help. Be prepared to use your chin and your chest.
4. It gets dirty easily, and the stitches do unravel. I replace it every 6 months.
5. Four stars mean I'm much better off to use it than not. I have yet to find a thumb support that does as good a job.
Customer Review: Difficult to keep clean!
Summary: 2 Stars
I have tendinitis. This fits reasonably well and prevents me from moving my thumb most of the time (I sometimes still feel pain, though). However, its light color means it looks dirty almost immediately, and it starts smelling really disgusting after only a couple days. I've tried cleaning it with laundry detergent & non-chlorine bleach, but it still stinks. The instructions say to hand-wash only; I'd love to throw it in the washing machine, but I don't want to ruin it since I spent $20+ at CVS. In sum, I hate it & am looking for a new model. :(Customer Review: Consider more than wrist
Summary: 4 Stars
I have used several types of gloves for my arthritis and thought this would be good. I use a medium quilters glove, because of wrist size, and bought the same size in this. What I never thought of was the size of my thumb. These stabilizers have a really tight thumb opening and I had to cut the sewing and make them wider to fit - otherwise, my thumb went numb. There is more to these than just wrist measurements when determining size.Customer Review: awesome!!!

If you are a serious voleyball player, you know what is to have your thumb injured!!! this stabilizer will you give you protection and security, and it will not irritate or bother you during the game!!!
the sizing is ok and comes in package of two, which is a good option.
Forget about the everyday tape,,i will buy 2 more for my daughter, and here, everybody asks where did I find it!!!
