I plan on purchasing this product for a first aid kit and am unsure of whether I should get the 4" or the 6". Any opinions on the matter? Thank you.

The size of the bandage really only depends on the wound. I've never planned to have any certain size or kind of injury, but it would be safer to have both, just in case. The six inch can be a little bit too big for the average medical kit when added to the assortment of other bandages, ointments, adhesive tapes, splints, painkillers and so on, but even more so if you have more than one of these bandages. The good news is, that regardless of size, they are sterilized and vacuum sealed to take up the least amount of space possible. I personally like the 4" more just for the simple fact it is easier to work with regarding pad and strap manipulation when applying the bandage. Also, if you ever have an instance where this dressing needs to be used as a tourniquet, the shorter width pad gives you precious seconds more to tighten down not only the pressure because your working with less surface area, but also with the length of the straps. The 6" pad takes longer to work as a pressure dressing or tourniquet and the straps are very, very long. The straps on the 4" are already long enough for any injury that they might be used for. And remember, If the vacuum seal is broken and you can squish the bag in your hands easily or even hear crinkling noises when handled, the item should be returned and you should get your money back, because the seal has been compromised and the package is no longer sterile, therefore it should never be used unless for tourniquet purposes only and there are no other sterile means of helping the injured individual right away.

Actually, I would think that the shorter you are, the 9" size would be better than the 7" since it would increase the squat angle. I am 5'6", and the 9" is perfect. The greater the angle, the greater the benefit. If you toilet is very low to the ground, you could do the 7", but I would always suggest the 9". You will SO notice the difference. This device will be one of the single greatest improvements you can make to your health. I know, believe me.

The 28" would definitely be a better fit for you than the 36". I'm 5'8", and had always used a 36" ax. We get cord wood delivered, but the firebox in our fireplace is small so I would use the old ax to split the larger pieces. I always had a fair number of misses or poor strikes and just figured it was my skill level. In short, the old ax is good enough to get the job done. In contrast, the 28" ax makes splitting wood fun. My swing feels more natural, I'm rarely missing, and I can split more wood in less time.

Hello! You are correct, it is definitely not 6.5" -- I don't have it with me at the moment. I'll measure it and get back to you. But it will fit in a pocket nicely, as well as the palm of your hand. It's really a good product, I think. :)

This seems to smaller than the standard six.....I kinda like that too. I would recommend this guy. Your question made me unwrap this thing, and I'm sorry I didn't use it yet.The best ones however seem to be the cheapies that I have all over the house at 10 or so for 5 bucks from China.!!!

If you want to completely stretch out, the 6' is probably the better choice. I bought the 5' for my 3-yr-old. We can sit comfortably together. It does take up quite a bit of space so make sure you have the room. Hope this helps.

I got the six footer, and I prefer it. I have not seen the 3 foot size, and don't know the difference. So it actually depends on you, I guess they both work the same way, the difference may just be the length. Good luck!

Very good question. I did buy the 36" axe, but I received a request for the review on the axe you mentioned. I wasn't paying close attention. I cannot speak for the shorter axe, but the 36" is nothing short of awesome!

my dad is a 6 footer... yeah he has been using it with good feedback.. i dont know your case as a 6-4 if that is big difference

5/16" will be a little big- 6.3mm is 1/4". I'd look for the latter, just to be safe.

I carry the 5 inch. It's a good fit. It may work for the 4 inch because of the strap that secures the gun from the top.

Cooking for 4 people, the 6 quart is adequate. I cook for two and it gives me leftovers. But if you plan to cook for 6 or 8 people, I'd get the 8 quart. Or buy the 6 quart and when you have more $$ get the larger size. I wrote an extensive review at ChezBettaydotCom.

Personally I like the Handy size the best. The small one (or the size down) is just to small to do a decent brushing job, and i have used the larger (the size up)(my sister had one so it was in our house, but even she didn't like it) and i find it really clumzy. Just to big to do a nice job. I don't know if this helps much, but i can tell you that i honestly get grouchy when i loose or break mine and don't have it to brush my hair with. MY hair is waist lengh, but it isn't the length that matters to me, it is the way this brush massages your scalp that is so important to me.

I am not sure what you meant. The 6" is diameter, not depth. The depth is less than 6".

High school? I would go with the 6 feet long, I bought mine for young kids. A few of broke rather quickly, but again it was in hands of young kids (6 and 4), so maybe just the fact that my kids break lots of toys by misusing them...

Really depends on your preference. If you like the grip close to the head (better control, I think), then a short handle may work well, even with huge hands. Otherwise, I'd go for the longer version.

I believe the 6.8" figure, is for the Workmate in the collapsed position. With the device unfolded for work, the assumption is that you'll put it where you have room for it, and whatever you've got clamped in it.
