I have been looking for a seat cane that I could use for the many events I attend where there is limited or no seating. While I do not need a cane for support for walking, I do have trouble standing for long periods of time. This company's seat cane provided a very good solution. I looked at many different seat canes and this one seemed to be the only one I could find that looked like it would hold up to my 275 lb frame. It is a very well built product and I expect to get many years of use out of it.
