There Needs to be a Larger Size for the Foot Waterproof Protector
Always a good product for protecting the foot, I just wish the item came more than Medium to Large as this is still very tight & challenging to get on & off due to the elastic rubber around the top of the boot. Due to this I always have to cut the rubber to try to get it on to the foot.
Please look into making a larger size as I am sure I am not the only one who finds it challenging to wear.

Excellent customer service
Several years ago I purchased a Limbo product for my foot which was excellent I recently fractured my elbow so purchased protection for my arm which is in plaster from hand to armpit in a fixed L shape Unfortunately was unable to put it over my elbow Jo from Limbo discussed problems with me and refunded the cost for which I am very grateful

Excellent product 👍
I bought the half leg option for the cast for my fractured ankle. It is so easy to pull on, needed no help at all, and totally waterproof. I can sit in the shower without any concerns about getting the cast wet. LimbO were recommended to me by the hospital. This product is a life saver as the thought of no shower (or bath if it was an arm cast) for six weeks would be a nightmare.

Waterproof but Painful to Use Due to Tight Fit
I bought this cast protector hoping it would make showering easier, and in terms of waterproofing, it actually works well. Once it’s on properly, it keeps the cast completely dry, which is exactly what it promises.
However, the main issue is how tight it is. Putting it on is quite difficult and honestly painful, especially with an existing injury. The opening is very narrow and requires a lot of force to get over the cast, which caused discomfort around the injured area. Taking it off is just the same, because it pulls tightly against the cast and skin.
Overall, while it does its job in keeping water out, the design makes it uncomfortable and even painful to use. I would only recommend it if you can tolerate the tight fit, otherwise it might not be worth the hassle.

Very pleased!
I was really pleased with how well it worked. It was a little tricky to put on, with just my working right arm but once there, it was comfortable and amazingly waterproof. Despite the shower water hitting the seal directly, not a single drop of water got on to my plaster. Very impressed.
A suggested improvement would be a more glove like shape at the end. Although my left arm is in plaster, my fingers are working and it would have been nice to use them in the shower, for example, to pour the shower gel onto. The current shape makes this not practical.

Half arm waterproof sleeve
Possibly a slightly more pliable sleeve material and hand shape so you can sort of use your hand as it is it is a big pokey spikey shape which is not easy to manoeuvre. Also putting it on was easier than getting it off as the excellent seal catches on any cast / bandaging especially when you have to do it all on your own without assistance, not sure anything could be done other than perhaps a couple of little loops either side on the outside to catch hold of, to help peel back over the seal?

Highly recommended
I have recommended these to.patients for many years but am currently dealing with a nasty leg wound myself. Limbo is a high quality item that slows showering during long periods of enforced limitations to bathing and showering. Easy to measure and find the right size. Easy to apply. They are great!!

Cheaper than Amazon
Ordered a replacement foot cover for my wound M200 and it was cheaper than getting from Amazon even when postage was included while I get free delivery from Amazon.
Order was received the next day so very happy with the whole process. Always worth checking costs and delivery timescales when ordering products.

Works well, easy to use
This waterproof arm cover is working really well so far. I fits over a fairly large hand brace and forms a tight seal. Importantly it's also easy to put on and take off with one hand. It feels tough enough to be reusable many times and it's certainly better than taping bin bags round your arm!

Limbo half leg cast waterproof protector
The half leg cast waterproof protector is excellent - easy to put on and take off and absolutely no water leakage, leaving the cast 100% dry. An absolute godsend and my partner can shower almost normally despite a broken ankle. Great product - thank-you.

A great product that resolved so many issues.
One of my biggest problems with my cast is that I have to keep it dry. This was problematic when washing dishes and made showering and bathing impossible. I couldn’t find any rubber gloves that would fit or were long enough. I tried using plastic bags but didn’t have any that were long enough. They were also quite flimsy and challenging to seal when on. I bought a waterproof cover for my cast from LimbO and my problems were solved. Fantastic product and a great price. Highly recommended.

Game changer
At last I could have a shower without getting my plaster cast wet. The best thing I have ever purchased. Whoever thought these up deserves a medal. Fantastic quality too. Thankyou Limbo. You have bought a smile back to my face.

The last one lasted 20 years! Thought it was time for an upgrade. I'm an amputee and the old one had just started to leak around the rubber at the top...not bad considering i use it most days. Excellent quality and service all round

I ordered quite late in the day and received my Limbo the next day! I used it in the shower and it did as was stated and kept my PICC line dry.
As a petit woman (1.8m) the sleeve is a little long, I wondered if I should have chosen a child’s sleeve, further information about the lengths would have been useful.
Thank you for your excellent service.

Excellent products
I have bought two coverings now, one for a cast and the second one for a boot and they have both been very effective in keeping my leg completely dry. They are very reasonably priced and delivery is very quick.
