Baseline 12-1012 Plastic Goniometer, Finger, Flexion to Hyper-Extension

Although this is a specialty item not everyone would need it was very cruical to a project I was working on. The size of the goniometer was perfect for what I needed, durable, very reasonably priced, and it arrived ahead of time, which was very good, because I was faced with delaying my analysis work until it arrived. I recommend both the product and the company highly.

Needed this for practice at school and it works great. Numbers are easy to read and it is stiff enough to hell with reading but loose enough for easy movement

Works as expected

I have been using this to measure my progress with range of motion following total knee replacement. I see a physical therapist twice per week who also uses this, but I like to measure each day to help me push a little more towards the goal of full range of motion (probably about 130-135 flexion for me and 0 degrees extension would be my goals). My husband does the measurements while I stretch and flex. One note: I notice that the measurements are somewhat variable depending on who is measuring. I have had physical therapists who get slightly different measurements within the same visit and my husband might also get a slightly different measurement, however; they are all within a few degrees of each other and I think it is the progress I am evaluating rather than the exact number.

This goniometer is affordable and durable. It didn't become loose over time as some goniometers do, so it has served its purpose well. I know some people who left theirs in a hot car and it melted somewhat, so I'd recommend storing it inside.

For some reason, the picture has recently changed to a Digi-Flex, with a note that says "Image is representative of the product family." That's a stretch, Amazon. But whatever. This product is a GONIOMETER, not a Digi-Flex, used for measuring range of motion of joints. This one is great! The 12" size makes it great for ranging knees, hips, and shoulders. I'm in PT school, and having this bigger one makes life SO much easier. I decided to invest a little more than my classmates who were just buying the cheapest ones they could find. Theirs hardly survived the first semester - a lot of them cracked pretty badly. Mine is still going strong!

This product only comes in 6" sizes at the medical supplies stores in my area, they are pricey for how small they are, and they take 2-3 weeks to arrive after the week you ordered them. Was pleased to find a size 6-3/4" size, for 3/4ths of the cost, and received by mail much sooner than 2-3 weeks! :) So happy for this sort of availability :)

The product arrived quickly and was accurate to pass my ROM test this semester. The flexible arm is great to bend out of the way to get a good shoulder horizontal abduction/adduction reading!
