| Brand | Ossenberg | Flexyfoot | Ossenberg |
| Our verdict | The Big XL has the widest handle range we found, 73 to 103 cm, with a 150 kg limit and a 750 g crutch weight, and both the UK page and the Ossenberg instructions agree on those figures. | The Flexyfoot Soft Grip reaches a 1092 mm handle height, the highest here, but its 130 kg limit is the joint lowest and neither of its documents states a warranty. | The Ossenberg Classic weighs 650 g and takes 140 kg, but it is single adjustable with a fixed 23 cm cuff, even though its UK page talks about positioning the cuffs. |
| Best for | most adults on elbow crutches for weeks or months, including taller users and people up to 150 kg. | tall users, and people whose wrists or shoulders object to the jolt of a plain rubber ferrule. | people who want to let go of a crutch quickly, or who use crutches on and off for years and like a light one. |
| Not for | anyone over 150 kg (look at the Days, rated to 160 kg), or anyone who wants an open cuff they can slip out of quickly. | anyone over 130 kg, or anyone short: the lowest handle setting is 787 mm. | people with long or short forearms who need the cuff moved, and anyone taller than a 96 cm handle height suits. |
