Customer Reviews of Duro-Med Adult Short Leg (23) Protector, Clear

Customer Review: Opening Too Small
Summary: 2 Stars

The concept is good, however, the size of the aperture in the diaphragm (not the ring) is too small. It may work OK for a child but I think it is too tight for most adults. We went back to a plastic kitchen trash bag and a couple of rubber bands.

Customer Review: No good for me
Summary: 1 Stars

I got this just after ankle surgery so I could shower with my cast on. The vinyl is strong and good quality, however the opening is way too small to fit my foot/ankle/cast through without a lot of pain and pressure on my injury, so I had to make a small cut to fit my foot through it. Once doing that it fit great, but it ripped from where I cut it, and I had to duct tape this around my leg to keep it on. VERY disappointed in this product and the money I wasted on it. Also the large blue ring around the top made it very difficult to move around the shower stool I have. There was also plenty of inside condensation after my shower. Would not recommend this at all.

Customer Review: Wow - did not work for me.
Summary: 1 Stars

This did not work for me at all. If you have a broken leg or ankle, usually you are in pain. Trying to get my boot through this opening was impossible. Literally couldn't be done - maybe could be done but with extreme twisting of my foot which is prohibitavely painful. Maybe it works with casts better. I ended up cutting off the top ring and then taping the top around my boot instead of using the ring. It kind of did it's job after I modified it that way. I hate to give bad reviews but - sorry - this deserved it. My boot is not much bigger than a cast. So, this didn't work in my situation but it may work in yours.

Customer Review: Don't buy the 'long' unless you won a guinness book world record for tallness
Summary: 1 Stars

The handle tie trash bags worked fine. I ordered this in my Vicodin-induced haze. When I got it, it was way too long. I guess I ordered the long version, but there's no way I could tell what the difference since they didn't describe short vs. long. I figured short was midget-sized or something. So don't order the long version unless you're abnormally tall, like 8 feet because I'm 5'7" and it's freakishly long. I can still use it, but I didn't have a problem with handle-tie garbage bags either when I was showering. I definitely wouldn't use this or a garbage bag to soak in the tub though. Both would leak.

Customer Review: Major Disappointment- Save your money
Summary: 1 Stars

This item is difficult to use. The opening is so small that it would be difficult to insert a healthy leg, let alone an injured leg which is what I bought it for. The picture shows a cast on the models leg. I have a surgical scar with no cast and couldn't insert my leg. I resorted to taping trash bags on my leg to shower and they worked wonderfully. Save your money and don't buy this product. I'm currently homebound so I can't get to the post office anytime soon to return the product.
