Would this be easy enough to put on, fasten & adjust with one arm immobilized & unusable?

I don't think it would. Neither of my arms is impaired, and I still enlisted the help of my teenagers in the "fitting" process.

I have tried using just one arm. It was not easy but did manage to get it on with one hand/arm, however it was almost impossible to get it back off with just one arm. Could possibly have been done it if something nudged it off the shoulder. Maybe even attach a cord to it to reach with the good hand.

Yes, I believe it would be. You will just have to put it on loose and then tighten it more once it's on.

It probably would help, but this one does not have a stiff immobilized. It is slightly flexible and may not be as fixed as other items.

Not easily. I did it once out of necessity but wouldn't plan to do it on a regular basis. I haven't encountered any styles that are easy for one person to set up yet though...

Hi Skot! The arm is movable so you will be able to modify the position as you see fit.

It's not hard to get on at all. Make sure you measure your arm though to get the right fit. It will be snug when trying to get off but that's how you want it.

It's not actually that odd of a response. It would depend on your flexibility. I was able to get the brace on easily on my own, but I'm still fairly limber. If you are stiff or not very flexible you're going to need a little help getting it on. You'll have to decide that on your own. It is a very good brace and I'm not sure I've seen a better one advertised.

It has the ability to adjust the fit, and I primarily use it on my forearm, so I would think you'd be able to do this.

Based on your being in shape, you might be able to do it - it's heavy but more awkward than anything. To align and attach, I had to hold up one side/press tightly while my husband screwed in the other side. Trying to align/attach with just one person is theoretically possible but again, I imagine much, much more difficult than if you had a friend help with the holding and aligning. We needed a screw driver and you'll need either pliers or a socket wrench. Hope this helps!

oh goodness, very easy....unless you cannot lift much at all...one other person to steady the other side can be useful, but in my case, I was the other person, my husband put it in ...I was just the safety factor...it took very little time. If you never do anything like that in your home, don't know what to suggest, but hiring someone seems over the top to me.

If you have average or better flexibility, you can put it on by yourself. (Good thing, too, because I found it impossible to adjust without taking it off and putting it back on several times.)

Yes the cuff can be easily placed with one hand. It's very easy to put on and take off

No not with any real ease,,It would be difficult..And I would not on one this small

Hi,The arms are bendable/pliable so you can adjust it for the size you need.

Sorry to hear about your arm. I would not say it works one handed without some modification. The other hand is used to apply pressure which holds the cable to the rubber wheel while retracting it. It may be fairly simple to rig it up to work fine with a bungy cord or similar. I'm not handy in the least and think I could make that work. So if you have some creativity, you could do it. Hope this helps.

Absolutely! The lower and upper arms are independant of each other so you can leave a set off, I actually only have 1 set of arms on right now myself!

Yes it can be ... You just don't need to fix arm rest which comes as a separate piece.

Having taken a look at the clamp, it doesn't seem to me that you could do so handily, unless you intend to allow the arm to extend horizontally. You'd need to devise a different means of fastening it to the post.Jim
