"If something goes wrong good luck trying to get it fixed. There is no contact phone number and their website isn't in English so their 3 year warranty is useless. I would not buy from this company again."

Unisex Walker Antishock
Reviewed by Thomas, Mar 31, 2007

"If you want or need an adjustable cane, this is it! Mine is one of four or five Komperdell canes I own, each with its own good points. However, the Anti-Shock is the one I use and abuse daily. I was unsure how I would like the anti-shock feature, but once I got used to it I would never go back."
