Bought for my sister who has a broken wrist , .reviews were mixed so took the chance & Not disappointed, although she broke her dominant wrist she has managed to use the Bloccs waterproof cover with no problems at all , so we would highly recommend this wrist cover which can be used on either arm ,
Drys quickly over the side of the Bath ,
Quick next day delivery to her place of work , could not ask for more apart from maybe if the cover could be less expensive.
Good fit and completely waterproof. Following, a trapeziectomy to my left hand this cover provided complete coverage of the dressing, stitches and cast for over a month. I will definitely keep this cover until the surgeon gives the go ahead for my right hand.
A good product and an essential item for protecting an injury/dressing against water.
The upper cuff of this product was so tight that it was very difficult to pull on over my cast and was way too tight on my arm. However a short vertical snip enabled it to stretch more and it still made a tight seal which kept my arm dry.
Works really well and good strong rubber material . Only problem was that even with stretching the neck was too tight on the upper arm and hurt! However using a pair of sharpe scissors I simply cut off 5mm of the upper sleeve(it tapers) and that was enough to make it a lot more malleable and therefore comfortable. Bandages stayed completely dry .And looked really funny on so even had a laugh!
In the passed I’ve purchased the waterproof leg sock that amazing and I’ve never had an issue with. Recently had surgery on my hand and needed an waterproof arm sock. Same outstanding quality but found putting on the sock awkward. Even though it’s designed to stop water getting in I found my bandage not soaking as they would of been unprotected however they were damp. A quick hair dryer after showering helped.
Been diagnosed with Kienbock’s disease, my consultant put my wrist in plaster for a few weeks, I am a keen swimmer needed a cover to cover my cast and this cover is brilliant, better than I expected, keeps my cast dry and I mean dry. I have dived into the deep end of my local pool, swam a metric mile with this cover on and the cast had been dry afterwards. It is worth every penny. When I go into the pool I let all the air out to get a watertight seal to make it work, but there’s one thing I would change and that’s getting rid of the thumb bit, because when you are swimming it is a bit redundant, other than that it’s perfect.
I purchased this item as I’ve broken my wrist and was told conventional carrier bags are not sufficient in keeping the cast dry during showering.
I thought the price was quite high but was willing to pay it, if it meant i could shower and attend a spa with a group of friends. I found this easy to put on myself, although would only recommend this once the initial pain subsides a little as a small amount of tugging and movement is needed. The band at the top of the cover is understandably tight to keep the water out but would be uncomfortable over longer periods. It’s fine for the shower but wouldnt recommend this for swimming as even showering the odd trickle of water went into the pot (easily dried with hair dryer though). Overall really pleased with the item but not 100% water tight seal despite how tight the top is. Arrived very quickly and item soon dries so you can put it away – material feels similar to a swimming cap.
