Your ad says the metal is removable, but customer comments say it is not. Which is correct?

The metal brace is not removable, it is very narrow approximately 1/2" wide and is not constricting. The cloth binding insert that this metal piece is in on the inside of the brace can easily be open to remove the brace if yu do not wnat it at all. FYI, I had decided that after Xmas I would have surgery on my thumb, beause it had gotten that bad. My friend told me to start taking Magnesium vitamins, which I need and also wore the brace daily. Within 6 weeks I no longer needed daily wear of the brace, as the Magnesium helped greatly. It is now 5 months later I have basically no pain now, do not wear the brace any more, though I still have some restriction in movement. I no longer seek surgery as I can now live with this, but this brace was a great relief until my thumb reached a point that I no longer had pain.

It is sewn into the brace and not removable. You could probably cut it out if you had to but it doesn't slide in and out.

Yes it is removable. I recommend watching the YouTube video for a review of features http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jdt3wTVOfXE

I really don't know. It came as one piece and doubt its removable. If its missing and not giving a strong burst of air, you may have gotten a bad one.

Honestly, I am not 100% on that. I would say no because of the plastic on metal construction but I am not sure.

I don't know, but I directly contacted Amazon and they were very helpful. I originally wasn't sure if the metal plate was included and called - the rep. was very knoweledgleable.

It is not metal. I agree with the others who said it's some kind of nylon mesh.

No it isn't removable. Just clean it with soapy water and a sponge after each use.

You could probably break it off as it doesn't appear to be welded, but it is not removable to my knowledge.

I am assuming it is metal of some kind. The best way to know for sure is to ask the seller. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I do not remove mine, its very flexible, have not had any problems and I have bent it over almost 90 several times. Always returned to its form.

It's just metal exposed, I have 2 of them, the design is not worth the cost!

The metal holding it on is easily bendable! Mine actually bent off and I forced it back on!! So yes!!

I find this question and the answers very humorous since the product comparisons list the material as aluminum. Should't Amazon remove the product for false advertisement then?

Everything is metal except for the cover on the step. The plastic cover on the step has a logo. "can it be taken off" Why would you want to?
