Has anyone compared this one to the version without the metal stays? What is the support and freedom of movement difference?

Christie: I bought 2 with the stays, you can't even feel them and there really sib;t much lateral support since they're so thin. Mine, with the stays, do not limit my [Martial Arts] aggressive movement at all and I hardly notice I have them on 1-3 hrs every day. Denny - Chicago

I found for water in my knee problem that the support was fine but had a tendency to slip. Much happier with metal stays that I later purchased.

I have not compared the movement, but with this model you can remove the metal supports. This brace has a velcro flap on each side, with 3 slots on each side with 2 stays on each side. The stays are a woven metal and flex nicely. So this model can be change for amount of support. I actually added an extra stay on each side from a old brace. With this brace I can flex down to less than a 45 degree angle. The beauty of this brace is you have some control over the amount of support.

It is definitely more sturdy, but I do make an effort to keep in straight, at my side, rather than swinging out in front of me. I have an arthritic hip that can get gamey. My daughter says she has noticed it is more sturdy with side to side movement rather than forward and back. It does balance on its own which is cool, though I have walked off without out it once.

The cheaper version comes with two bar clamps and no adjustable feet. The adjustable height version has identical t slot in table but doesn't come with bar clamps but instead comes with two toggles and four corner stops I have both and love both but thus far have only used bar clamps and never have had need to adjust legs so for me cheaper version best option but I highly recommend either

Good Day...this unit is incredibly stable. The only function of the bar across the back is lateral stability between the left & right sides. The gray foot piece also adds to the forward-to-back/back-to-forward stability. Our parents continue to use the Windsor, now for convenience rather than necessity. This unit is very easy to move away from the toilet for cleaning and storage. This unit is done "right", highly recommended.

I cannot compare it to the slide seat as we have not tried one, but we find this to be a solid, stable, transfer bench. This bench provides a secure feeling to the user without the fear of unexpected movement while on it. If the user has no ability to move on their own though, the sliding bench may be a better option for you. I am very pleased with this purchase, the stability is great. Though not bought for the reason, the clip that holds the hand held shower has been a great plus. Good design. It can be assembled to enter either side, as this was a concern of ours. We needed it to enter the opposite of how it is displayed. I cannot compare it to the slide seat as we have not tried one, but we find this to be a solid, stable, transfer bench.

I have one with and one without. The answer is no, you don't have to but sometimes when walking a fair distance between shots it is nice to have the stabilization that this provides. I suggest trying it both ways.

I have these, received them a week ago or so. There is no metal adjuster. It sits on arm rest and pockets hang over. I have wide arm rest and the table doesn't slide or move. It stays put. I love these and an very happy with the quality for what I paid.

I don't think they're too different, aside from weight limits. Although it's been years since I bounced on one. Hope that helps.

I don't know about the difference, if any, but I have the one with no arms and the back does not adjust. For the price, it is serving me just fine.

I have never tried the previous model. I do not notice any stability issues on this model.

It moves easily if you want to lower or raise it, but it does not wobble at all or shift under weight. It will not come out of the grooves. My son and niece climb all over this thing, and it has never teetered. It is incredibly sturdy.

Not sure how different they are but I absolutely love the mueller one much better than the regular mueller wrist support I previously used much more comfortable it is more bulky so I would not use it outside of sleeping.

I realize this is a very late reply to your query, but I thought I'd answer anyway. I sometimes take several months to make a decision about a major purchase. This is super sturdy and doesn't feel bouncy or like you are leaning forward. It feels really good, very solid. it is very comfortable. I am out of shape and needed to start exercising, and my use of this is increasing over time -- I am up to 3x a week.

I haven't noticed any difference. I have the clear one and it has that nice no slip grip. I set mine on the arm of my leather recliner and it will not move unless I move it.

I don't know the difference, but I did send it back because I found it unstable. I chose the Knee Bug instead, more stable, better turning capacity, and it has a front basket for carrying things.

I don't know about the comparison, but I love our bar. I teach PE and its strong enough to hold me 150 lbs so I am able to demonstrate moves on the bar, and then the kids go on it. The 5 yr olds climb up on the support bar on the side to get up. Sturdy construction, but light enough to move around easily.

I'm afraid I cannot tell whether a model with adjustable legs is better. Though I ordered a mode with adjustable legs, the product delivered was in fact the model without adjustable legs. I've been advised the seller advertised the wrong model ... The model I purchased was shipped with a toggle clamp, but I think a quick change bar clamp should be a better choice, not sure if this is sold separately.
