Enablers Home Helpers Kit by Apex - Discontinued

I purchased this kit for my painfully deformed arthritic hands. I most especially love the knob that turns the light switch (we have only 1 lamp with this type of switch and it is in our living room; when my husband is away, I am not always able to turn the switch on or off and since it was his departed mother's lamp, he will not part with it.). The button and zipper pull I have not had to use yet but I know I will depending on the size of the button. The light switch was easy for my husband to attach. The button/zipper pull seems well made. I wish I could say that I love the key holders, but feeling like thin plastic and being so bulky in size (so as to be too big for pockets if you need them for multiple keys you carry), I was not so impressed. I was hoping that perhaps they could be put on my clock key as I am unable to wind the 3 places without a lot of pain. My husband did a much better job by making it padded and wrapping a lot of duct tape around it so that it is both bigger and has a little flexability/cushioning. I don't really need the pen holders as I buy the fat cushioned pens/refills. The utensil grips are just so-so, again, feels rather hard, and feels flat underneath, thus not being as comfortable to me as the padded utensils I purchased. The other issue with these is that the fit will depend on the style of the utensils at the restaurant I would go to--unless I bring my own. Depending on the style/design of the utensils, I do not think these would fit on all. They don't seem to have any weight to them. Overall, IMO, the kit as a whole was overpriced, (considering shipping and handling on top of that), but yet again, the lamp switch has been worth the cost of the kit. Thank you.

The dexterity kit is supposed to help people with using their hands. Most were not sized large enough for an average adult. The lamp knob extenders work well, but had to shorten the stem to attach to lamp. Pencil holders slide on the regular octagon wooden pencils. The zipper pull/buttoner is very difficult to open one-handed. The utensil handles are made for small hands.

Had this kit before and lost some of the pieces. Especially like the zipper/button helper. Keep it in my pocket at all times. Came in a timely manner and was in good shape.

pencil or pen sleeves are not pratical since they do not fit over today pen or pencil...furthermore who writes with pencils

The EZ Key Turners were too loose for any of my keys. The Pen and Pencil Cushions were fine on conventional pens but slid around on pencils. The Lamp Switch Turners worked great on the switches on my lamps but I could see how they wouldn't fit all switches. The Spoon and Fork Holders are very hard to push onto fatter plasticware handles but fit on conventional tableware however it slides around on the handle. I haven't yet used the Button Hook/Zipper Pull but it looks kinda flimsy.
