I picked this up for my mum who desparately wanted a stick that could be folded away when not needed. She needed a fairly short stick and this was just the right height at it's absolute shortest. Solid construction, not too fiddly for her to be able to pack it away and with the two supplied clips it hides away nicely in a larger handbag/shopping bag. I cdidn't get on with the molded grip myself, but it slipped straight in to her hand and gave her a good confident hold on it.
