I absolutely love it, although I have had to have it repaired a few times. To make it more affordable, there's a monthly rent-to-own program.At $500/month, it takes a yearlong rental to buy it. While it's not a trivial amount, my attitude after I tried it the first time is that's I'd gladly pay $6k to be able to walk safely again. <br /><br />It's very good at both preventing foot drop and stabilizing my ankle, making it much safer for me to go down steps (and curbs) and without my cane. Unfortunately, it has not translated into eliminating foot drop or stabilizing my ankle simply by using it; without it, I still have foot drop. If the arm/hand one was something I could wear all day to help me, instead of therapy, I'd buy that too. Actually, I could walk well enough to get by without the leg gizmo, and would have preferred to get my hand useable rather than my leg. But I didn't have that choice.Barb Polanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14673025156245739311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904685628370887899.post-25720534058103752282015-10-11T08:50:22.540-04:002015-10-11T08:50:22.540-04:00All of those robotic breakthroughs are useless if ...All of those robotic breakthroughs are useless if people can't afford to use them.Alex J.
