DMI Exercise Pulley Set for Physical Therapy helps Increase Mobility, White

Excellent! Nicer than the one at my doctors office. I broke my humerus in half and this is exactly what I needed for physical therapy after my arm was in a cast for 14 weeks. Really helps with the range of motion. The rope is pretty long so I just shortened it up to my liking. I am 5’ 11 and do my exercises seated so I can get full extension. Very easy to put together. Quality is good. Pulleys are smooth. I installed mine on my closet door and sit on my bed. Works perfectly! For the price this is an excellent item.

This has been a great help in exercising my frozen shoulder. It is very durable, well made and does exactly what it is supposed to do. It would have been helpful to have a set of exercises included but then you can always look some up on the internet or create your own (I did both). It is very portable and I was able to take it with me on a recent trip. You can only place it on one side of the door (the door closes toward you) otherwise the molding gets in the way. It is less demanding physically than other exercises as you can use your "good" arm to pull the other arm up, sideways, or even behind your back. I found it easier to sit on a small stool to get a better range of motion. You may have to shorten the rope length (or just wind it around the handle as I do). Overall, good product, good price.

It's not the quality of the units you get from the home healthcare stores, but it is FAR less expensive.Mine worked better using one pulley, not both...

Love product. Great for exercising. Very portable

Bought for shoulder physical therapy at home

Item is very sturdy. Well worth the cost. I'm using it to continue shoulder rehab.

I purchased this at the same time I purchased the Multi-Use Shoulder Pulley Deluxe - with Foam Cushion Assistive Grip & Metal Door Bracket, and so you will see an identical review under that product as well. First some waivers: I work for neither company and this is an impartial review. Secondly, both products do the job for which they were manufactured, as long as users understand their purpose. I feel that some of the unfavorable reviews of this item were written because those customers may have not realized these products are only useful for assisted passive rehabilitation to gain flexibility and range of motion for shoulders following surgery or other treatments. They are not for improving muscle strength against a resistance. They are both sturdy enough for the purpose they were built. There is no difference in the results you can expect from their performance. Both will hang from the door and permit closure.In my opinion the Lifeline shoulder pulley is a far better product for a number of reasons: 1. It has an elegantly simple design. 2. It's easier to put together. It's also easier to hang on the door and then take off after use 3. It's quieter and smoother. 4. The instructions are better. 3. It's easier to travel with since it's smaller. 5. It's more versatile permitting exercises off the bracket more readily. For example, in external rotation the Lifeline pulley is utilized horizontally by inserting its rugged nylon loop between the hinged edge of the door and the jamb. That cannot be done with the Duromed Pulley. 6. The Lifeline is also better for people with bad hands because the grips are padded and one of them even has a mechanism to take all pressure off the knuckles. 7. It is much easier to adjust the length of the ropes on the Lifeline. Simply pull the rope through an opening on the top of the grip to whatever length you need and a small spherical catch at the end of a lever will maintain the position. With the Duromed Pulley the rope has to be untied and then retied to the grip.The Duromed Pulley has 4 small rubber cushions on the bracket to keeping it from scratching the door. However the cushions themselves left scuff marks. The simpler Lifeline bracket has no cushions, but it has not scratched or left any marks on the door so far.One tip: With the Lifeline hang the bracket first, close the door, and then hang the pulley by its loop. If you hang the pulley first the weight of the apparatus will cause the bracket to tilt and you will be unable to close the door.

I liked most of all was that it was not hard to assemble, it took less than a minute, light weight, really durable, works good for the price I paid. I didnt like the closeness I am to the door. It could be my arm length is a little long but definitely worth the money.
