Perfect for getting a grip on Theraband elastics. Easy to use, and makes holding the Theraband so easy.
Not too good October 16, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Have to agree with those other reviewers who said these handles are not durable. The foam rubber handle covers on mine started to crumble after only a couple months of use. Poor quality. If they're meant to be used for vigorous exercise, they need to be better quality to last. I got one of the other brands of exercise handles (which you can find via a search) and they are much stronger and more durable than these Thera-band crumblers.
So glad I got these!! November 6, 2006 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
I got these on a whim - I didn't really think I would need them, but I splurged, and I'm glad I did. They really make it so much easier to use the Therabands. Plus, I've found that I have a latex allergy, but I can still use the Therabands as long as I'm using these handles. It took me a minute to figure out how to tighten the bands in, but once I did I found that they were very secure. These handles are light and feel very comfortable. I highly recommend them if you are going to exercise with the Therabands!
"Cheap" being the operative word. November 2, 2006 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
To describe these as "light and cheap" is exactly right. And neither is a compliment. My Thera-band handles started crumbling after only a few weeks of regular (3 or 4 times a week) use. The foam rubber on the handles is obviously cheap quality and started fraying at the edges. After picking up several chunks of foam off the floor, I learned that tying my own handles at the end of the Thera-band stretch bands works better -- and is free.
These handles simply are not sturdy or well-made enough to hold up for the use they are intended for. Save your money.
I like them. October 19, 2006 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
I like these. They are purposely lightweight so if the band breaks you don't have some heavy handle coming down on you. I like how light they are and cheap.
