Finger exerciser is junk but the hand grip trainer is well worth the money!

One Finger Too Many? No Problem!
This grip and finger strengthener combo just arrived today, so I can't comment yet on its durability.The two devices are primarily made of plastic supplemented at key points by metal, with soft rubber hand and finger grips.I have deducted one star for one curious ergonomic failing -- the finger strengthener has five pushers, though only four are needed, as your thumb rests on the flat side of the device.Why in the world did these geniuses include a fifth pusher? So either you must straddle one or more pushers with your fingers -- which feels awkward and undermines the idea of the individual finger exercises -- or just ignore one pusher entirely and use the other four.I notice also that the orange rubber grip on the flat side of the finger strengthener comes off the black plastic base rather easily. Is that a good thing? I don't think so...In addition, two metal inserts fell out of the finger strengthener when I unpacked it. I have no idea what the purpose of these is, or if they were simply shipping inserts. No instructions are provided, so who knows?On the positive side, I must disagree with another reviewer who said the hand grip strengthener doesn't offer enough resistance. At its highest resistance -- the setting the device was shipped with -- it was as tough to squeeze as a metal spring strengthener I have on hand, which I was finding a little painful to use with my arthritis and carpal tunnel problems.I reset this one for about half-force, and that feels much better to me. I also tightened up the finger pushers to half-force as well, which feels in "lezone."In sum, this pair of products, reasonably priced, seem to offer decent performance for the money. And if you have six fingers on either hand, you'll have more than enough pushers to exercise them simultaneously!UPDATE: After writing this review, I had another look at the Lezone's product page on Amazon and discovered explanations for the five pushers and two metal inserts. Supposedly, the former allow you to increase the gap between any two fingers as you exercise them. Why is this desirable? Beats me, but maybe it's useful if you're a horn player.As for the two metal inserts, they're designed to lock down up to two of the pushers. Why would you want to do that? I don't have a clue. Well, if "Lezone" is a French company, that might explain a few things -- the French can be rather quirky and contrary, after all. That makes me wonder if President Macron used either of these hand or finger strengtheners before his infamous forceful and prolonged handshake with Trump at their first meeting. Nothing could surprise me any more...PROS:* Both strengtheners seem well made.* Comfortable soft hand and finger grips.* Adjustable and adequate range of resistance.* Reasonably priced.CONS:* Finger strengthener seems designed for folks with six fingers.* Rubber thumb grip removes easily on finger strengthener.* No instructions explaining purpose of two metal inserts included with finger strengthener.

Great price, better service.
I purchased this on July 26th and it arrived quickly, which was nice. The price was great, as it also comes with two pieces for what others normally charge for one, so the price point is excellent. I did have a major problem though...The grip exerciser broke in less than two months. There is a ring that compresses the sides to keep the screw\spring assembly from falling out. The problem is, that silver colored ring that holds the front end together...it snapped on me today. If I compress the handle, it pulls the tension screw out of the case making it an accident waiting to happen. I guess it would be fine if it was under 15 pounds, but it removes the ability to have it set to the higher tensions.Manufacturing problems happen, nothing is perfect and for the price it would be fine to just let it go. However, I was able to contact the seller and they were a great help. They sent me a replacement at no cost to me, even though I was outside of the return period. There is a lot to be said for good customer service; it can make up for many problems and it this case I am satisfied with the result.

Decent Well Made Strengthener
The handgrip strengthener feels sturdy and well made, but only time will tell if it last long. I will update should it break within a few weeks like my previous one. The finger strengthener is also well made. Adjust for both is pretty simple and straightforward. The finger strengthener doesn't seem to have as much resistance as I would like even if you adjust it to max. I have my doubts it'll strengthen my finger anyways so I'm not too worry. The hand grip seems to have some decent resistance when adjusted to max. Overall decent product as of now, but a little pricey for my taste.

I only have four fingers
I bought because I had carpel tunnel surgery and Doc suggested this device. I came with 2 little wrenches (i think that is what they were) and no explanation. I have a question for the manufacture. What does it have 5 button when I only have 4 fingers? There is no way the thumb come into play. They work fine for what they were intended for and I suppose that is what is important. Canโt go wrong with this good value product(s).

I purchased this grip and finger strengthener package to improve my finger strength for playing guitar. The coils can each be adjusted separately and that is a great feature. There are no markings to show how many pounds they are set for, so that can be a challenge, especially if someone else uses the device and changes your settings. But that is really a minor inconvenience. Overall, it has proven to be durable and easy to use.

Solid
Strong solid constriction. Ability to make adjustments in resistance is a very nice feature. The only problem I have with it is on the finger exerciser the rubber cover that rests in your palm slides off. It should've been glued on.

Seemed easy after awhile
Nothing to complain about. Seemed easy after awhile, even after turning the tension all the way up. However if you do enough repetitions with it I guess It kind of negates that.
