Doesn't have the metal bar at the end to make the cuff tighter by pulling it through it. How hard/easy is it to put it properly on your arm, YOURSELF?

The metal bar to pull through would have been helpful. Too bad this particular one doesn't have that.

It's all about pressure. If you are speaking of the red sleeve area pictured, really any ring area you must not screw in tight till all are joined. Just attach or screw in enough for the screw to stay. I don't have my instructions right now so I suggest you do not tighten till the ring is complete.

No, it's hard to use and when you do get cuff on and pump it up you get an error. Should have returned but don't. Don't buy.

I don't think it needs to fit snug on your arm. Just let it hang there as you would a bracelet.

Hi Mandy I'm joe I've been using this machine for over 3 years this is the best in the market I think the problem might be the cuff size primary , if not maybe is the way you put it on the cuff have to be 1or 2 inches above the elbow you should be able to slide one finger under it or go on YouTube to see the demo

Not TOO easy, it kind of clicks in so it does not just fall out. Stays wrapped around your wrist when jogging, etc....

I am but with some difficulty. The brace is rather small and the Velcro sometimes comes undone. It depends on how far back you can reach with your arm to be able to put it on yourself.

Once you've unscrewed the cuff and fully inserted the attachment past the ring wrapping around the attachments nozzle, tightening the cuff isn't keeping the attachment in?

I don't know if they're meant to be, but the springy steel of the cuffs can be "opened up" for us with larger arms. I've found they work better a little tight, so as to stay on the arm if you release the handhold to use your hand for something. Very satisfied with mine.

A larger arm cuff is available. Call Blipcare customer service. They provided mine at no charge.

the band is bendable but stays it's shape like the picture when untouched. material feels rubbery to touch. even with vigorous activity it won't fall off unless it's physically being ripped off your arm or if it's loose on you (size is too big). the way you get your arm in the band is to slip your wrist in at the opening by pulling the band apart where the ends of the band crossover each other.

Jim I have very small wrist and I do not have any problems with this trying to come off. The material that they are made of and the shape of them allows them to stay on, it you really wanted to clinch it down you could always place a rubber band around it to tighten it up but it is not needed. I did this with a previous floatable strap. When I was snorkling in the Dominican Republic recently on an excursion, I saw several people on the trip with the same thing and when I was talking to them about them (men & women) they all said they really liked them and had no problems. Hope this helps.

Loosen the cuff slightly by turning the left - no needed to remove the cuff just loosen slight then insert the attachment and tighten the cuff by turning to the right.

There wasn't really a trick . i just read the directions. However I must warn you to be careful operating when fully extended. Very hard to manage fully extended without straining the shoulder. I had the harness to relieve some of the tension, what a piece of crap.

Hi put the strap over your shoulder , with one arm out . Make sure the smaller strap is hanging down, pull it under your arm and click the two ends together. If you go back to amazon website and click on the small boxes , you will see how it connects under the left arm pit .then it allows you to pull it freely with your right hand as it hangs on your right side .hope this helps

You've found the Achilles heel. When I first got mine I damn near was rolling on the floor trying to get the cement, or whatever was holding it to loosen. I was having physical therapy at the time for a replaced shoulder and, in desperation, asked my therapist to see what she could do. I'm 6'6, Mary is ethic Chinese, all 5'1" of her and in front of my eyes, popped it as easily as a self opening beer can. The trick is to hold it, facing you, and put both thumbs under the bottom of the lower blade and give it a push. Once you've done, it you'll wonder why it wasn't obvious but, as you've discovered, answering the riddle of he Sphinx is somewhat easier. I hope that helps and you find yourself with a head in one hand and the body in another.

Sure. I don't like this cuff, though. Too sensitive. Buy a different cuff. Buy an Omron.
