Futuro46204EN Adult Pouch Arm Sling

A good stand-by item to add to my many knee, wrist and ankle supports. It's better than many we have tried. The sling in made of a lightweight breathable fabric and the over-shoulder strap is adjustable. There is a thumb loop to help hold your arm in place. Mum tried it for me as she has a torn rotor cuff. She said it was comfortable.Good item to have.

This is a slightly-too-simple sling really. All the elements are there, but the way the strap adjusts, and the lack of comfort padding around the shoulder area, suggest that it wasn’t really tested all that thoroughly. The thin strap around the shoulder area rubs quite badly against your neck. If you’re planning to wear a polo neck or something that will stop it rubbing directly against your skin then that will help, but if you don’t, it becomes quite painful quite quickly.Like other slings, it’s quite difficult to put on or to adjust single-handed. Hopefully you’ll have a second pair of hands to help you with it, but then that’s generally true if you need a sling anyway, so it can hardly be criticised for that.The manufacturing quality is fine. It’s made of the same fabric that Futuro’s wrist supports are made from, nicely flexible and breathable but not particularly pretty, looking a little bit like a light grey plaster. It’s not going to win any fashion awards either.As other reviewers have said, the lack of shoulder padding is a real problem with what would otherwise have been an adequate, comfortable sling.

Did the job of supporting my husbands arm.

A sore shoulder can benefit from rest. A sling can help. But what type do you go for?This sling is fully adjustable, can be used for either left or right shoulder. I am not sure about the colour tho.The material is vented for comfort.It might be just the ticket for you.

This arm sling has been so useful for me! I broke my arm 8 weeks ago, and I would have struggled much more than I did without this product! It is comfortable, supportive, easy to wear, and helps to keep the arm protected against the body. It is less cumbersome than a bandage sling, which I really liked. Recommended.

With a fully adjustable shoulder strap (someone else will probably need to do this bit if you have a serious break or sprain), ensuring the proper fit is fairly straightforward. Once the strap is the correct length, the sling can be used to support either arm. I tried it out with my right, so that I could see how easy it was to take on and off with my preferred hand immobilised; it was easy.Although I had my arm at the correct position, I didn’t find the shoulder support very comfortable, even for a short period of time. It felt as though it was cutting off the blood supply in my neck and I couldn’t move it to any alternative position where it felt more comfortable. I was also less keen on the thumb loop, although I have a slight tendency towards RSI in that joint, which doesn’t help.The sling is well made overall in terms of fabric choice and security of clips and straps. I personally did not like the shoulder pad and would probably add some foam to soften its impact on my neck/shoulder but overall it provides some good support to either your left or right arm should you need it. It can be hand washed as required.

Quite smart-looking, in grey with a white strap, it has an adjustable strap but I struggled to do this myself and had to ask a friend to help.Once on, my arm felt secure and comfortable but after half an hour or so, the shoulder padding started to rub behind my neck, and I really didn't like the thumb loop which was very uncomfortable.If you were to ignore the thumb loop and wear a top with a high enough neck that the strap didn't rub, then this would be perfectly good to use, but those, in my opinion, are its limitations.

Easy to unpack. this is made of firm yet comfortable material. It offers a lot of support to your arm and you can wear it for long periods with no problems at all. Handy for when you have an issues with your arm.

Okay, as a full figured woman I was optimistic about this sling. However, I was rather annoyed when it arrived today only for the darned thing to be awkward and uncomfortable. There was just not enough length in the adjustable shoulder strap for my arm to sit comfortably, in a comfortable position. My arm was hoisted up over my bust, and the neck strap was digging into my neck, plus the back of the strap sat awkwardly up the back of my arm and shoulder blade.Like many products, it seems that plus sized bodies were not a consideration in the design process, which was a shame as the light weight breezy fabric was exactly what I was looking for. So, if you have a generous bust (or are generously proportioned) then this may not be the arm sling for you either 🤷🏻‍♀️ Thankfully I can pass this on to a more petite family member.

Perfect! so much better than what they send you hom with. Doesn't cut into your shoulder.

very uncomfortable. Considering they are supposed to be therapeutic that misses the ball by a long mile.

The sling was ok, but I had to add an extenseion to the strap since it was too short for my broad shoulders. Would be fine for someone with small shoulders.

RECEIVE THIS SLING YESTERDAY. REPAIRED THE PULLED STITCHING ON THE STRAP BEFORE GOING TO BED. IT FITS GOOD BUT RATHER FLIMSY IN THE STRAP ATTACHMENT. I AM NOT A LARGE PERSON (195 LBS. AND 5' 10") BUT THE STITCHING GAVE WAY AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS WEARING. IT HAS HELPED RELIEVE THE PAIN IN MY SHOULDER A LOT, SO I AM VERY THANKFUL FOR IT. OTHER THAN THE STITCHING LETTING GO I AM STILL SATISFIED. WOULD I RECOMEND? YES, JUST BE CAREFUL WITH THE STITCHING.
