Design flaw causes poor sizing

By Amy Khedouri, Oregon, Verified Reviewer

I am a woman and weigh 125 pounds. I wear a size 7 and a 1/2 Medium shoe.

I purchased an ankle sleeve in size Medium. It was too big. I sent it back. I reordered a size Small. It was too small.

I would like to suggest that these items are poorly designed. The sizing simply does not work. I don't mean that the Medium was too big (ok, that can happen) but the opening to accommodate the heel on the Small was ridiculously small. It was probably fine around the ankle (I don't now for sure as I took it off within seconds before my foot lost circulation). I assure you that I have a normal sized foot, not swollen but the sleeve cut into the sole of my foot really deeply.

I recommend buying Acme or Champion ankle braces. I have been using them for years and just reordered another one since this purchase did not work out.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Disappointed

By Laura Schmidt Ready, Trevor, WI, Verified Reviewer

Size runs small, so the shirt didn’t fit well and kept sliding up. I didn’t see any improvement at all while wearing it. They asked for my review, and when I submitted this information, they refused to accept it. Apparently, they only accept what they want to see in order to con more people into buying their products.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Poor customer service or no customer service

By Frances B., Arizona, Verified Reviewer

It is almost impossible to get a customer service specialist on the phone. Phone rings and rings - no answer during business hours.

I emailed them and as of this date (three days ago), I have not received a reply. I'd like to return an item, but apparently, my 60 days will be up before I can get an approval to return. I won't order from them again.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hole in sock

By Brenda S., Wilsonville, OR, Verified Reviewer

First time I put on compression sock, there was a hole in it, top of the foot, not where I would be pulling up on the dock. I got these from GMA Steals & Deals a while ago. Finally just tried on. Very disappointed that quality control didn't catch this.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Compression Knee Brace

By Doug D., Bristol, TN, Verified Reviewer

I purchased a knee brace to see if it would help relieve knee pain. It has helped somewhat when I wear it at night. It's completely useless during the day when I'm doing any type of activity. The brace will not stay up, slides down to the top of my knee and there's nothing I can do to keep it in place. I did purchase the size recommended, according to the measurements on the label, but it was definitely too large. I exchanged for the large, which is snug, providing enough compression, but it will not stay up. I will try another brand for daytime use. The Tommie Copper is perfect for night time use while sleeping. Stays up then.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Falls down

By Kelly M., Ontario, Canada, Verified Reviewer

Purchased the correct size from the Show Case store. No returns allowed. Wore for a session of outdoor football refereeing clinic that was nowhere near the time I would wear for a game situation. They just would not stay up. Less than 5 minutes, the top was down around the top of my knee cap. Finally just pushed them down around my calf for the rest of the on-field session. I do not recommend this product especially since there is a NO RETURN POLICY!

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Nope!

By Claude M., Florida, Verified Reviewer

I have the long one from ankle to hip - yes, I got the smallest size, one stays up, the other not. I have the knee ones. I have the elbow ones.

None work for pain. But I like the heat - that's all that helps, so a blanket works better, so I only use it when up and around. Again, just for the heat because they do nothing for the pain.

Plus, check out the tag - should copper not be in there? It's 86% polyester + 14% spandex and silicone...so where is it said or mentioned copper?

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Watch out!

By Paul S., Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, Verified Reviewer

Saw their ad for a sale on an item I needed. Good deal till they added in $75 shipping and handling...YES, $75. Couldn't believe it! This was for delivery to Canada, but big deal. Wayfair, Amazon, and other sites do not charge this. I am still waiting for a reply to my email!

Good products, terrible customer service

By William N., Silver Spring, MD, Verified Reviewer

My wife and I ordered two items — a back support for her, a knee sleeve for me.

My knee sleeve has been great.

On the other hand, we had to return the back support (in the first week of December), but returned it (immediately) for a larger size. Over the last month, we were assured that the replacement was on its way. This week, we were told they were refunding our payment. Then it got really interesting...

Pros and Cons

One product seems to work

First delivery was quick and correct

The "customer care team" is a joke

You can spend 20 minutes on hold, for a new order or to check on an old one

Over a month (four interactions) to straighten out a simple replacement

Knee Sleeve

By Steven Wilkinson , California

I was excited to try a new Knee Support. It sounded like just what I needed. I wore it right away and at first was surprised at how comfortable it was. And I did feel a coolness about it!

Unfortunately, after about one week of wearing it, the sleeve would start folding up on my knee after only walking a few hundred yards. It was then really uncomfortable and I was constantly stopping to fix it! They had a good concept but poor elastic or something for support! I was disappointed, I went back to my original Knee Support. Would not Recommend this product.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Does help with the pain

By Kat , Vancouver, BC, Canada

I have severe osteoarthritis in my knee, and am trying to hold off on a knee replacement. I started using Tommie Copper a few weeks ago, and do notice that my pain level has lessened, although it is not gone completely. The Tommie Copper has made the pain level a lot more tolerable.

The only down side to me is that I have had a reaction to the silicone bands that hold the sleeve in place, so I am now going to order the non-silicone version.
