“good if you order right size & not quite as described”

The actual brace is supportive though on discription it says "It has a strong but lightweight plastic shell that protects and immobilises the wrist and thumb as well as an old fashioned plaster cast" and it did not seem to me to have a plastic shell and was nothing like a plaster cast, and be careful which size you order as i ordered a medium as my wrist size is 6.4" which was between small and medium so i thought to order medium incase of swelling but that was too big so i had to re-order a small, but the product itself when get you get right size is quite good and supportive.

“Excellent support with A2 wrist brace.”

I broke my scaphoid in a fall and was put in a cast by the hospital.After 6 weeks,the cast was removed but my arm was not right.The x-ray was showing the bone was healing,but I couldn't move my wrist and was in a lot of pain.While in the cast I had no problems at all.
I was put in a small,flimsy cheap NHS removable cast,with the velcro fasteners which did absolutely no good at all.I am unable to go back to work and am losing almost £300 a week,something I cannot afford to do.
I saw this A2 wrist brace and decided to try it as it looked like a quality and robust item.
I bought it online on Saturday and it arrived on Tuesday and the P&P was very cheap.Excellent service.
The A2 Wrist brace is a superbly made and extremely effective cast and I have been incredibly impressed with it.I am no longer in pain,and am able to pick things up (within reason) and was able to drive my car for the first time since the accident.
I am now hoping to go back to work in less than a week,possibly 2 weeks earlier than planned.This wrist brace cost me less than £30 but is going to save me well over £600 and give me the support and protection I need at work to prevent further injury.
I would certainly recommend this product and company for both excellent quality and service.
