Unwearable due to seam
I wanted to like this sleeve since it also has a band attached to it. However, upon trying it the first time, there is a seam that runs across the bend on the inside of your elbow. The seam feels flat like it wouldn't be a problem, until you actually wear it. I had it on less than an hour the first time before that seam irritated my arm to the point I had to take it off. I have looked at the sleeve, but I don't believe it can be modified so that it doesn't irritate. I tried it a second time and resulted in the inside part of my elbow being rubbed raw. I do not recommend this product. Oh and Amazon won't accept a return on it, so beware.

McDavid vs Rehband 7720
I have both elbow supports, and I find the McDavid to be better, particularly for heavy weight lifting. I have tennis elbow and olecranon bursitis of both my elbows, and this is the only support I've found that provides sufficient support to allow me to continue exercising.The key feature of this support is the adjustable strap -- it allows one to increase support as needed depending on the weight. Until I found this elegant device, I was looking at platelet injections and trying to avoid surgery. Hands down the best elbow support on the market.By comparison, the Rehband 7720 Elbow Sleeve , while decent, does not have the adjustable strap, and tends to loosen over time. It is a decent device, but better for less intensive activities that require a more complete range of motion, but not as much support.Also, for those who find the device too tight, I would recommend going up a size and using the adjustable strap to tighten as needed.

Size Chart Not Accurate - No Reurn Policy
Product Quality outstanding however size chart not accurate, we measured circumference and ordered size to fit, unfortunately it was too small. Also, no refund/return policy as well. Needless to say, very disappointed in this vendor product and policy for returns.

Waste of money- Returns not accepted!!
I wanted to like this sleeve since it also has a band attached to it. However, upon trying it the first time, there is a seam that runs across the bend on the inside of your elbow. The seam feels flat like it wouldn't be a problem, until you actually wear it. Less than a half an hour after I put it on, the seam irritated my arm and rubbed inside my elbow raw to the point I had to take it off. I have looked at the sleeve, but I don't believe it can be modified so that it doesn't irritate. It’s been 2 days since I tried it and my arm is still raw. I do not recommend this product. Amazon won't accept a return on it, so buy at your risk.

Sizing Chart worthless- no returns
Even though I measured and compared to the sizing chart the XL was too small. Could not bend my elbow. No big deal if returns were acceptable. Having used McDavid products in the past I'm sure the product would be decent if it fit. The 1 star is for seller!

Good support and comfortable.
I needed elbow support for some arthritis. Adjustment allows for a lot of support ratings that help alot with pressing exercises. They are comfortable enough to leave on for an entire workout. These will not limit range too much but with a tight setting will promote a lot of support fully extended as well as in tucked position like a sling. I have even slept in these to keep the arms out of painful positions . Hey whatever works!

It works.
This is a great support. I have a problem with my Bicep tendon and as a result I have a lot of pain around my elbow. This provides better support than anything else I have tried. McDavid products are excellent. I have several different ones.

3rd time I've ordered the same product. Wear it ...
3rd time I've ordered the same product. Wear it every time I work out. I guess I'm hard on gear, but the functionality of this item is right on.

Size guide, useless. No returns
I’m pretty sure if you could get the thing on it’d be great support but trying to put something with very little stretch on an injured arm is impossible.. bought according to size guide for my partner and he struggled to get it over his wrist. My arms are much smaller and I can’t get it on. Side note, you cannot get a refund which is a pain as I’ve already ordered the next size up and thats probably not gonna fit either. Not a happy customer.

Make sure to size it properly....
The neoprene sock fits snugly and the strap is solid. A well made product overall.The size (large) was too small for me, which was rather surprising. I do have large-ish arms, but didn't think they needed an XL.It's really a 1 or 2 star for me. Due to the incorrect size, it was very hard to get on. It eventually caused some chaffing at the inner-elbow-corner stitching with prolonged active use with home improvement type stuff (e.g. I had red/raw lines on my skin exactly where the stitching was). But I can't fault it for being too small - that was my fault (I guess?).If sized correctly, I'd be much happier.

I had to return this arm support due to it ...
I had to return this arm support due to it being very snug to the point where my veins were bulging. I have small arms and ordered a medium as small wasn't in stock. Order a size or two up from what the measurements state.

Sizes are a bit tight
Good product, it does what it advertises. I feel this may not have been designed for gym-goers though, who have a bit more muscle on their arm. I first ordered a medium, which did not fit my 12 in elbow. I returned it for a large, which was better but fits pretty tight. The last size to go to is XL but that may be too loose.

Amazing. The pain in my elbow has lessened
I received this on Thursday. Have been wearing it on and off all weekend. Amazing. The pain in my elbow has lessened. I highly recommend. Even with xl size, I find it tight, maybe my muscle are just too big ;)
