A good option for protection, comfort, ease of use
This box of Wisesso was a good find. I've been dealing with tendonitis for several weeks, so having a way to protect the finger was an imperative. The three pieces here offer different sizes - good if you need to use for various length fingers, but if you need more of the same size, you'll have to get another set. The cost is not prohibited, but I'd love to see boxes offered with 2 - 3 of the same size. They are easy to undo - adjust to your size around the finger - velcro to that size - and wear. I got into the habit of not resizing, instead slipping the finger in/out as needed. It was easy, a good trick for me, and also gave me an idea where my finger was as far as swelling. The metal is easy to "bend" if needed to fit, the velcro strong and secure, the cushion comfortable. I got this Wisesso set to replace the splint we'd used for a couple years. It was showing its age, but wasn't horrible, so I used it the first few days after injury. Regarding longevity of such splints, they've always lasted at least a year, the one being replaced was over two years. I decided I needed something new due to the injury and how much protection I wanted. Remember, the old splint and new one are almost identical - no idea what the original manufacturer was - this to demonstrate these splints tend to last well, therefore we have great expectations for the Wisesso set. I switched upon arrival and the new splint did offer more cushioning, so it makes me feel like we'll again get good longevity. The new Wisesso splints arrived and for the rest of the injury - 9 weeks to this writing - until follow up, I wore it for large amounts of time: 2 - 8 hours per use. It remained comfortable throughout. It also gave me a legitimate experience of protection. This Wisesso set of splints has been a good choice. PHOTOS: ** Good options in the set - three different sizes. I would love to see an option of 2 - 3 of the same size also offered ** Out of the box they are covered in this thin blue wrap for protecting the splint. Great detail. Much appreciated ** Easy to get the blue wrap off, using the velcro to set the size was good/okay/got it done - with my non-dominant hand doing the work, so it was tricky ** I learned from previous such splints to keep it set as-is and slide the finger out when taking off, slide in to wear, making it far easier than constantly rewrapping The last images show the Wisesso splint next to the original I had, both used at time of photo ** There is a noticeable difference, but also note, both look good considering time and use Read more
