I just received the Rubbit by Armaid. armaid.com/store/products/7…
My concerns about the Rubbit were how well does it get the bicep and how well does the rubber base keep it in place. As the Armaid is able to strap to your leg.
After talking with customer service, they assured me that this wasn't a big deal. I was super happy I found this to be true. I could put it on my leg and get at my bicep easily.
I found the green dog toy looking roller to be surprisingly firm. It really does work it's way in there very well. However I would like to see more attachments like the beads on Armaid. They did they were coming out with one but were having difficulty with manufacturing. So I'll look for that soon.
The second function of being able to break it apart and use it on your legs is actually really nice. I figure well I have a foam roller for that. But I was able to get into harder to reach places on my legs.
With the price at 50 I think this is pretty good product, I'd still like to see a few more attachments so I can vary the pressure of my roll, So I'm hoping they come out with those soon.
Overall I'm happy with it. the real question is will it help stay off tendonitis or not. Well I don't have an answer for that but will update with longer term use.
I also really found this video useful especially trigger point part. armaid.com/page/2-3060/rubb…

I just got one of these too. More convenient and effective than using a normal foam roller against a wall, which is what I had been doing. FWIW that has been helpful in reducing the pain from medial epicondylitis, so I expect the Rubbit to do even better.

Hi Guys, for the Rubbit, was it able to do away with your tendinitis problems in your elbows?

I like the smaller size and portability of the Rubbit (now called RolFlex), but there aren't enough reviews out that I see for it. I know the regular ArmAid device works well for the arms, but I'd also like to use a device for the rest of the body. At this point, I guess I'd be leaning towards the original ArmAid, since based on people's reviews it definitely works for tendinitis, and has the other attachments of varying densitiies already available.

Thanks for any follow ups. Cheers
