18 Best Hand Controls For Disabled Drivers (2022 Updated)

The device works as described, was in near new condition. I installed it in a Honda Fit. The controls will take some getting used to but I believe it will enable my wife to continue driving despite declining use of legs.

Price of the device make it easier to justify trying the unknown device.

The only problem I have with it is. You have to pull to go and push to stop. this is a little confusing once in a while. I can cause unnerving lurches in acceleration if you are not paying attention.

Takes a little getting use to with the pushing and pulling. But on the flip side it is unbelievably easy to use.

The product works good for the price. other products out there but you will have to pay a heavy price. I have a 5 speed transmission in my car and only my left leg is available , So I use thee freedom staff for gas and brake it took a little time to get used of it but I mastered it.

Al.

I have severe arthritis, and several joints locked up causing me to lose mobility. Its become harder to move my legs back and forth from brake to gas, so I began looking for options. Having a permanent system installed was a choice, but time consuming and expensive.

The Freedom Staff solved both problems. It’s portable, easy to install, and the learning curve is quick. I’m so glad I made this purchase. the only one that’s been a true life changer.

I read some reviews from previous buyers who complained about bird’s nests in the wire rope on the drum causing some jamming of the spool against the winch case. Some buyers suggested cutting some of the wire rope off to shorten it and help prevent such problems.

I used it once (so far) and found that if you keep an eye on how it is spooling as you bring the load in you can pretty well move the winch sideways (if and when it raises up off the ground) as it is spooling and carefully use a gloved hand to help guide it onto the drum to distribute the wraps more evenly across the drum.

In the future I will most likely be yarding logs a fair amount of distance so I am not in favor of cutting off any wire just yet.

The handle swings from console, it does not stay stable, causes some error when excelerating and breaking. Have to be careful. It will work in a pinch but for permanent usage I think we will have hand controls installed instead.

I use just the brake side of this tool , and so far I have liked it only used it like 4 times now but really nice to operate and easy to install , going into the city to my doctor tomorrow so thats going to be the real test for me.

I use my right hand on the control and my left sometimes it’s nice to be able to switch if I need to. Only complaint I had was the over the steering column strap isn’t long enough to go around my column in my F150 just to much stuff and to big around so I just rest the arm on my lap.

be nice to see a longer strap for the bigger vehicles like a truck.

As a disabled single mom, this has made it possible for me to continue to independently transport my children/family places safely despite severe nerve pain & significantly reduced feeling in my lower extremities.

Where before I had to drive “double footed”, placing 1 foot on each peddle prior to beginning to drive so I could keep my eyes on the road while independently pressing on the gas or breaks as needed; now I’m able to safely drive without any concern about the risks of a foot slipping off a peddle as I drive without me realizing it until it’s too late.

I have better control of my vehicle & feel safer as I drive down the road.

These hand controls were kind of hard to install only because it was difficult for me to get both hands around the steering wheel in order to tighten the screws once I had it on the pedals. It took me about half an hour the first time I tried it only because I was taking my time to make sure I did it right.

I did not install the steering wheel spinner so I have no idea if it works or not. The controls are easy to use but do require some practice until you become familiar with them. These controls perform as advertised.

Ever since the first Rouge came out that was the only driver I would use. My drives usually have a nice mid trajectory, but I put lots of spin on the ball, so most other drivers I would hit would end up ballooning a bit and getting no roll out, and the only driver that I came close to liking as much as my Rouge was the SIM.

Then the Rouge ST was released and since the course I work at is a Callaway retailer, we had lots of demo clubs. Hit the Rouge ST LS (9° set to 8°) with the shaft I currently use and instantly fell in love.

Played on course with it for the first time today and it was incredible. Drives were carrying 300+ almost every hole which was a 30 yard increase from my Rouge, trajectory was perfect, and the spin was perfect for my liking.

The control and consistency with the club was amazing, I could stop a drive if needed and if not it had decent roll out, and the couple shots that got away from me were not bad misses, so the club also has a decent amount of forgiveness.

The club also looks and sounds amazing which is always a big plus. Overall, I 100% recommend this club, especially if you were a fan of the original Rogue. If you have your own shaft that you like with a Callaway hosel fitted, I recommend using that because personally I didn’t like the Mitsubishi shafts, but the driver head itself is 10/10.

Buying the driver and a 3 wood to match this weekend, and they will likely be the only long clubs going in my bag for a long time.

So product seems really well built. Very easy install. Is 100x better feel n driveing expereince then stock pool ball imo. Not saying poolball was bad by any means but absolutely love the new shifter.

Would highly recommend. Only downside is paid for 2 day shipping n took 5 days to get it. And website is not accurate on delivery dates can constantly change sometimes within hrs.

2019 Scat Pack 392 with 6sp manual. This Hurst pistol grip shift handle is way better than the factory shift knob. I wish it was a slight bit bigger like the old style but the finger groves are really good.

I ultimately used the red Locktite because it kept moving while I was adjusting it. I re-adjusted it three times over three days to get it exactly where I wanted it. Better to hold the knob with one hand while tightening up the nut to the lock-nut with the other.

The cut circle around the Hurst logo is surprisingly sharp, not a good thing and Hurst should address this, although it would raise the cost. If there was a better/different pistol grip shift knob I would have considered, but this is the only one I found and it is WAY BETTER than the factory.

Pretty awesome even. American Muscle shipped it with no issues.

I just took delivery of my very first American Muscle purchase, the Hurst Pistol Grip Shifter for my Challenger R/T Shaker. FAST shipping, excellent packaging. And wow, the shifter is NICE! It took me all of 10 minutes to install, and the Hurst Pistol Grip feels like it should’ve been a factory item.

Perfect fit, killer quality, and the look is pure Hurst Nostalgia. Can’t wait to put this Pistol Grip shifter through the motions!.

I had been searching for a well-made, easy to use and effective support for my wrist (tendonitis). I came across this wrist support at VIVE HEALTH. Reading the reviews, and seeing that it was very reasonably priced, I thought I’d give it a try.

and I was not disappointed! It is well-made, very easy to use (easily adjustable to one’s own preferred firmness, and able to use on either hand), and it is a perfect support for my wrist. In fact, in lifting weights (dumbbells), my pain is no longer.

It has worked beyond my expectations. Highly recommended! By the way, you should check out their website (lots of very good health products). No one asked me to say that, but VIVE HEALTH has become my one-stop go to place.

Thought I’d pass it along.

The brace is awesome ane very comfortable wearing it to sleep with at night. It is not cumbersome as my old brace and the velcro straps do not catch on any other material. Mr wfrist feels much better as I have been wearing it every night.

Definitely would recommend the brace for anyone with carpal tulnnel or wrist injuries.

I have carpal tunnel and found the Vive X support wrist brace to stabilize my wrist to the point that my pain is gone. I also found this brace to be very comfortable because of it’s three adjustable bands.

It comes with 3 internal supports which can be removed for washing. Looks good, not bulky, and looks to be very durable. Good job Vive, Joe.

This thing is awesome. I have never used them before but I bought the highest resistance one and I have noticed a change in my hands, fingers, and forearms in just a few weeks (Not how they look, but the way the feel and how they perform).

I am on the computer a lot be it for work or school or Warcraft, and I would use this thing at the computer constantly or carry it around the house. Got a loading screen, do a few reps. On a zoom meeting? Lets get in a few squeezes.

The instructions that come with it are perfect too for proper use. Easy to master. Worth every single penny.

I first used this with my Pilates Instructor and was impressed by the option of exercising all the hand or individual fingers, which is great for me. The range of resistances available is very useful and well described – I chose to start with faily easy.

I just keep it to hand so it gets used every day. They are popular with musical unstrument players for toning up and it’s easy to see why.

I bought this product with the intention of increasing my grip strength. I ordered the extra heavy tension (white version) to get the best results. I’ve never measured my grip strength in pounds so I wasn’t sure if this tension would be too much or just enough.

Turns out “extra heavy tension” is a pretty loose definition- it’s quite easy to use if you’ve done any amount of climbing. I’m honestly a little disappointed in the amount of resistance in the product.

In order to feel any sort of minor fatigue I have to squeeze this device 70-90 times in a row without stopping. However, it’s not all bad. It does at least work individual fingers (but even my pinky finger doesn’t have a problem with this tension).

If they had a similar product with a much higher resistance then I would gladly return the Prohands Gripmaster for it. Until then I suppose I’ll just keep using this one with high reps. I’ve started to use it like a stress ball when I study.

I’ve been having pain in my left thumb for over a year, foolishly assuming it would eventually heal itself. Once I bought this brace, the pain greatly diminished within just a few hours of use, and mostly disappeared within a couple days! I can still feel it twinging sometimes, but its only been just about a week since I started using it, and googling says that it would take a few weeks to fully heal.

Some minor detractions though: as some people have said, once the bottom velcro strap gets fastened in place, you are Never going to be able to undo it. It’s worked out fine, because its stretchy enough for me to just slide my hand in once I undo the middle strap, but for some people who’s injury is worse than mine, it may not be feasible to do so.

In addition, I have very small hands, so I was worried about the brace being too large but I was able to get a snug fit by adjusting the middle strap. However, after a few days of use, the soft part of the brace around the hand and wrist had become less stiff, so I wasn’t able to tighten it as much as I would like, but it still maintained a workable fit.

Slight durability concerns: from the beginning there were loose threads all over and I’m paranoid about the longevity of the velcro. All in all, it works well, providing almost instant relief, and the hard support around the thumb is especially good and sturdy.

Would recommend! Sorry for the novel :).

Good product and well made. Wasn’t sure which brace to pick since there are so many on the market. I researched this quite a bit and the Vive brace looked like it was in the top 3. I’m very happy with my decision.

Brace has helped stabilize my thumb and i’ve seen significant improvement over the last 3 weeks and i’m no longer in pain. Of course I ice as well, so you need to do other therapy as well. It allows free movement of the top of my thumb and 4 other fingers which is a BIG plus when working in the office or around the house.

I love that it’s adjustable around the wrist as well. At this price point I was expecting a piece of crap, but that is not the case at all! All around it’s a very good brace and I would highly recommend it.

Being able to wear this brace on either hand is a super feature. Both of my thumbs have problems; fortunately, they rarely act up at the same time. This brace is one of the better thumb braces I have found: stiffer material but softer than plastic.

I have short fingers and this does not hit my thumb in any uncomfortable places. However, it is uncomfortable around my wrist; it is stiff and rubs against my wrist when I bend it.

Wanted more resistance than the standard Gripmaster Pro and this does the job perfectly. Just as comfy and sturdy as the Pro version but requires significantly more grip strength. Great training aid for finger-to-palm squeezes for those with strong grips and some finger-to-thumb squeezes as well.

Excellent for working out your forearms.

If you’re concerned that 13 lbs isn’t enough, since you’re a rock climber, then you may find yourself initially disappointed. For me it’s not to hard to crush this gripper repeatedly, though I have relatively strong forearms, I’m ~215 lbs and my highest climbing grade in the gym was a 5.

11b. However, then I realized there are a lot of grip variations that make it quite difficult, and so probably helpful for gaining strength: * You can squeeze and hold it as long as you can, like when hangboarding.

* You can place your fingers between the pads, such that your finger is squishing two springs at once, effectively doubling the force. Using just one or two fingers at a time is also interesting.

Using this will not improve health! For an older person it might be dangerous. I mean joints and ligaments. The impression was meant to convey that increasing hand strength will improve an older persons health.

That is playing it backwards! If a person is still able to maintain muscular strength,this might keephim from falling or dropping something. 1. stop smoking 2. start walking 3. Eat healthy 4. Get proper sleep.

If you do these things you might still be able to gain muscle as the years pile up. AND YES, I LIKE YOUR PRODUCT. IT IS WELL MADE AND AFFORDABLE.

I just got this, so we’ll see how it goes. This really should come with instructions. Looking at the pictures I managed to figure out how to adjust the strength settings. You pull the handles apart and then put the end of the spring in either the first, second, or third slot inside of the handle depending on the pressure you want.

Another reviewer was super helpful and answered my question about the button on the handle. If you pull the handles apart, you can put the spring inside of the handle with the button. You push the button to get the spring back out.

I hope this helps.

The scooter itself met all expectations in terms of being an excellent mobility device – ease of handling, manoeuvrability in small spaces such as store aisles, and ride comfort. Unfortunately the auto fold did not work and we had to use the manual fold.

The scooter is everything I wanted. I never received the free gifts (cup holder and arm bag). I called 2 times and was told the gifts were on the way. Still haven’t received them!

But, the electric fob won’t work. Either will the button on the back fold it. So we have to do it manually. The co is working with that to get it fixed. Otherwise we are enjoying it. Gives my partner real freedom.

My mom has rheumatoid arthritis and it affects her hands pretty badly. Her pinky finger kind of just hangs there and is susceptible to getting snagged. This splint helped her keep her pinky in place and allowed her to actually use her pinky when gripping.

Only thing that would be nice is if the Velcro didn’t hold as hard. It is difficult for her to get it off. I understand it is a fine line to be sure it holds and is able to be undone. Just something to think about for people that don’t have strength in the other hand to undo the Velcro.

This splint would probably help my hand more if my knuckles and hand had not already starting turning to the right and the knuckle under the index finger was not so swollen and disfigured. That keeps the splint from staying wrapped around my knuckles tightly as it should.

Wish my RA doctor had recommended this much sooner.

It has been slightly difficult only because my finger joints are quite deformed so it’s tricky to put the brace on and off. But it has been helpful in slowing the degression of my knuckle joints. Just wish I had found these braces sooner.

Helps with range of motion and works the eighteen muscles in the hand. Can feel my fingers, especially the ring and pinky finger on the left hand (which I’ve had trouble with) strengthening. There is a certain ‘looseness’ in my hand and they are not quick to ball-up, which is the main reason I purchased.

I’ve been able to open certain jars by myself which I haven’t been able to do in the past. I do 3 sets of 10 daily and in a couple of months I’ll be able to move to the medium (red) ball. This is a staple in my fitness regime and I can’t think of any other hand product that has all the features that the Hand Master Plus does.

I highly suggest purchase. Also, on the official site, there are exercise steps if you need further instruction.

Looking at the photo representing the product, I felt that ‘set of three’ included one of each strength. Not so. You are sent a set of three of one strength without a choice of which one. I purchased this set for both my husband and myself and could have used the less strenuous for myself and maybe graduating upwards.

It is useless to me, as all of them were medium strength. My husband did not like the bands , they are pretty tight on his fingers. No returns on this one.

I bought 2 sets of these. One for my husband who plays guitar in 2 bands (and paints cars as his day job). His hands get really stiff and sore from overworking them. He LOVES these! Says they are surprisingly helpful! I haven’t had a chance to give the other set to my 84 year old mom, but I’m betting she’s going to love them, too! She has a touch of arthritis and stiffness in her dominant hand.

these should be just the thing to help bring back her mobility and strength.

I bought the first generation in grey and the velcro strips separated. I bought the second generation in black. The velcro strips did not separate and you could use a computer mouse and be comfortable.

Both had a metal strip that was very important to stabilize your hand if you have arthritis. I was so satisfied with the second generation that I ordered two pairs of braces and found out that they were the third generation.

They were uncomfortable holding a mouse and had a smaller velcro strip that separated. I spent $60. 00 on these replacements. I called the company and they said they would replace them with the ones that work for me.

I’ve been wearing the wrist brace I purchased for a week now due to severe carpal tunnel. The brace is comfortable and gives the support my wrist needs. Works great. The one downside is the thumb hole is not reinforced like the rest of the outer edges of the guard and is, therefore splitting at the lower outer edge of garment.

Though comfortablle to wear, there must be a way to reinforce the only raw edge left unbound. Because of this “defect” I’m not sure how long it will last before the split/year gets too big and has to be replaced.

Otherwise, a very good product.

This is the first wrist brace I have used, so I cannot say from first-hand experience how this compares to other versions elsewhere. However, I ordered it because it looked more attractive (more streamlined) than versions I saw at the drugstore.

I am an average-sized woman so my wrists are on the smaller side. I do find that I have to cinch the velcro very tight to get the brace to fit. My biggest complaint, though, is that the brace support bar does not seem to line up with the design of my wrist.

It sits too far into the palm of my hand – the place where it has a bend does not stay at the heel of my palm, but it creeps up closer to my palm, so I have to keep pulling at the end that is on my arm to tug it back down to where it is comfortable.

Also, I can see that after about 2 weeks of use, the velcro is ripping up the neoprene and so over time it will develop a very bad frayed texture in those areas where the velcro constantly attaches. This probably won’t last me for a long time, but perhaps it will help in the short-term to alleviate my wrist pain.

I have become pretty tired of buying crap tools from China that seem to plague the store shelves these days. I would rather pay the price for a good quality tool and keep it for life. Good luck finding that unless you buy from Snap On or MAC.

This driver feels solid in the hand with a quality build. Combined with my Torx and hex bits, this single tool makes removal of body panels a breeze.

I love this Motion Pro spinner handle. It is a great tool for removing or installing multiple bolts. I like it so well I just ordered the same tool with a 1/4 drive also. The price was good and delivery was quick.

Nice fabrication, smooth ball bearing, not light but solid, and good inertia with spinning bolts in or out. Motion Pro hasn’t disappointed me so far. Nice quality

When your quality of life deteriorates to the point where you cannot walk thru the stores, go to festivals, fairs or to do basic shopping for groceries then it is time to purchase one of these scooters.

It was very easy to assemble, the battery comes charged so you are ready to go. I have a small SUV and this scooter had about 4 parts that can be taken apart so it fits well into my trunk area. The ride is smooth, the controls are so easy to use, the scooter turns corners just fine.

the basket is adequate if you are just doing a little shopping, you might want to invest in a basket that attaches to the back if you need more room for items, but that is a separate purchase. Getting the scooter parts out of the car is not that difficult particularly if you have someone to help you.

Forgot to mention that the ride is smooth and there is a dial on the steering column to adjust the speed. Great little scooter for the money!!.

I purchased this for a family member. It’s a great product, it’s better looking than an electrical wheelchair. Coworkers at the office loved it, they even want to get one, they like the fact that it’s very compact even to use in tight spaces.

It’s great to take to the mall, and don’t have to look for a rental wheelchair or rental scooter. It will pay by itself in a few months. It’s compact enough to carry in any trunk, and the battery has a great range.

I will recommend it to anyone who wants to look cool, and at the same time make it easier to move almost anywhere.

Having been denied a mobility scooter by the VA, and desperately needing an alternate means of getting around, I found myself needing to buy something out of pocket on a fairly limited budget. After doing some research on everything I could find within my price range, I settled on (not for) the Segmart 4 wheel mobility scooter.

I liked that it was delivered to my door and easy to assemble. The only negative I’ve found so far – and this is a matter of opinion – is that the seat feels a little short as measured from front to back.

Otherwise, this scooter has met my needs admirably, taking me to the store, the bank, church, and even to go vote.

Helpful combo. The cushion is flat and twirls to provide some help with mobility. The grip bar gives more confidence to person in the seat. Nice packaging, too.

I purchased the auto assist grab bar and the universal stand assist to help my friend get out of my low car and to help her stand up when getting off the sofa. These products have been a life saver for both of us.

Thank you!.
