Rehabilitation AdvantageRehabilitation Advantage 19.5 Inch Plastic Shoehorn with Hanging Hole

This long shoehorn is built just right for its intended purpose- to help slip into shoes/sneakers without much, if any bending. It is comfortable to hold, works well, won't rust or splinter, is adequately long, feels sturdy for its purpose, and has a handy hole for hanging it up in the closet.I don't get all the negative comments about this plastic long handled shoehorn. It's perfectly utilitarian without any unnecessary embellishments. The part that does the actual shoe-horning, the 5" at the very end, is adequately stiff to get the job done. The shaft may be flexy but that's pretty much irrelevant because it just connects the handle to the 5" business end.It's job is to keep the back of the shoe up and let your heel slide into the shoe instead of crushing the back of the shoe and eventually turning it into a slipper... bam! 5-stars right there! It's a shoehorn for goodness' sake- not a demolition tool nor a coffee table conversation piece. Let's be realistic, it doesn't need to be made out of 16 gauge hardened steel or Brazilian tigerwood with gold inlays. If that's what you're looking for, then expect to pay 20 or 30-fold, cuz this ain't your huckleberry. For under $4, this does the job, got delivered in 2 days for free, and should last an eternity when used as directed.My only other comment is that this slender, 19.5" shoehorn came in a humongous 30" x 7" x 6" carton along with enough paper stuffing to choke a horse... so much for Amazon's initiative to minimize packaging! A 20" cardboard tube without any stuffing would have been perfectly adequate and, I imagine, would have saved Amazon a good portion of its shipping cost.

The shoe horn is long enough to reach my shoe when sitting in a chair and is flexible enough to bend while slipping my shoes on. It replaces a poorly built metal one that gouges my foot and does not slid around the back of my foot. Love it!

Hard plastic is smooth and quick/easy for successful shoeing! Great for all ages to help with quick, injured or elderly difficulties with positioning to get shoes on! I actually bought this one for a 10year old who saw a "shoe horn" at the shoe store and was ecstatic to get one of her own! Great Christmas Stocking Gift!

I got this because I like the color and it was cheap, but when I use it to put on my Chelsea boots I have to bend down in order to grab it closer to the end, because otherwise it is too flexible to hold my boot open while I shove my foot in it. I think I'm going to pass this on to the nearest Goodwill. I'm sure it would work fine for someone that just needs a little help slipping into a low top sneaker without having to stoop.

Super handy for folks with limited movement. The horn is stiff enough to do the job. I had another one, but it collapsed when I put pressure on my heel. This one does not and it was less expensive too.

I have tough cowboy boots to put on and get off every day and I need a longer, stiffer shoe horn.

Purchased this because I had knee surgery and I couldn’t bend enough to put my sneakers on. Until you can bend enough to put your own sneakers on, its just the right length to be your perfect assistant.

great for my mom to use.

Good price!

It may be just cheap plastic, but so far it didn't break or bend out of shape like other products. I very happy with it and the price I paid for

Helps me put on my shoes and I just have to bend a little.

Work with no problems but wished it was longer and had a hanging hook. My problem as I should have realized the length.

I was surprised how "plasticy" the shoehorn was. Some might find this to be a good feature; not me. I'm hoping it will be durable and stand the test of time.
