BL Steering Wheel Knob Spinner - Universal Non-Slip Fit, ABS & Premium Silicone Finish Suicide Knob with Metal Ball Bearing - Ideal for Cars, Trucks, Boats (Silicone Red)

I love this knob! After a serious shoulder injury, I was having problems using the steering wheel in my car with just one hand. I ordered this to make one-hand turning easier. These knobs are a common thing on farm and construction equipment, as well as semi trucks and buses, so I was familiar with their use.The knob ring is held on with one screw and a rubber insert that helps prevent slipping. The whole installation took less than 10 minutes and most of that time was trying the different thickness inserts to find the one that fit the most snug. It all seems well made and has made my life a lot easier for the past three months. I recently added one to my wife's car so I can drive that as well. She said it took her about 10 minutes of driving to get used to it. The biggest thing is that since it makes turning much easier, you have to get used to NOT turning too quickly, but that's not hard. This may not be an essential addition for most drivers, but definitely helps if you need one-handed driving, or your backing up a lot etc.

I purchased this for my mother who recently hurt her shoulder. It really allows her to maneuver the vehicle without causing pain to her infirmed arm. It's easier to make left turns than right turns but she can still have a full range of motion. The extra grippy material is comfortable and allows for full maneuverability. We are pleased with the product. And can recommend.

Simple to install. A screwdriver is all that’s needed. My daughter broke her left arm and this knob is ideal for helping her get back to driving. She took to it instantly.

Very convenient to use specially I have my right shoulder injur and I need to drive. Even in one hand very easy to turn the steering wheel.

Works as expected

Item was as promised.

Works perfectly as designed. So great I bought two more and now I regret that decision. Well "live and learn", the coating on the part you see in the picture is coming off little by little. It is not silicone. Perhaps the top part of the handle is coated with silicone but the lower half is painted. It is NOT made in china but in Korea. Korea is on a par with Japan or so I thought. Smooth turning as there are ball bearings. Well made, good matte finish on the painted parts which are metal and not plastic.and which the matte finish is now coming off. The spacers for smaller wheels are made of a better material not cheap rubber that gives off a terrible smell. These two spacers may be made of black vinyl and yet you can tell they are also a quality made item. It has a metric Phillips head screw to tighten it ( 8x 1.25 m). I put it at the 5 o'clock position on the wheel. You can then rest your left arm on your arm rest while keeping your right hand on the Power Handle. Naturally in heavy rush hour traffic or in town you should have both hands on the wheel but for long drives and where you need to make only minor corrections to the wheel to stay in your lane,this cannot be beat. Why did I not look into this sooner. Of course this is not meant for some women (and this is not meant to be sexist) who upon getting into any car or truck immediately put the seat up so that it looks like they have their girdle caught on the dashboard. It might be possible that a non-zippered coat or a buttoned coat might interfere with the power handle but this kind is relatively "flat" and not a large protruding handle like some of yesteryear. In short this handle will hardly interfere with anyone having to make quick movements with their hands on the wheel of a car or truck. As a parking aid, it is "hands-down" a great item to use. You can look towards the back of your vehicle and with only one hand on the wheel you should be able to maneuver skillfully your vehicle into a parking place. One substitution I made is to go to an ace hardware or other and get an allen head screw. It takes a 5mm allen key and is the same length as the Phillips head screw. It costs $.30 cents. It makes it easier to tighten and to change the position on the steering wheel and you do not have to see what you are doing to tighten or loosen it. The allen key wrench will fit snugly. An allen head for those who do not know is a commonly available hexagon head fastener. You can buy a whole set at harbor freight for $1.19 plus tax. But take the Phillips head screw with you and let the person in Ace find the right size and yes I opted for a "stainless steel" allen head screw. It must be the exact same length and thread, but if you just bring the Phillips head screw with you and tell them you want an allen head screw in stainless steel. This makes it a lot easier to tighten when you need to and/or move the handle to another car or truck.

Overall it’s good but it’s hard to tighten up.
