Question
How heavy is the mesh. Our old carts have vinyl covers and we are looking for something thicker - not sheer.

Answer
We have two color options available, both of which are made of vinyl fibers, one would be the "mesh" which is the lighter of the two but it does have pinholes as any standard mesh would.  The other option is the "sure check" which is also a vinyl material but it is solid with no pinholes and in turn is a bit heavier, but only comes in Pink, White, Brushstroke and Mint.

Question
My son hurt his satorius muscle during a soccer game. he is senior. and wants to play. which brace would you recommend he wear when he plays and what he should wear while he is healing. or would this brace work. thanks

Answer

Dear Mr. Vann:

Thank you for your inquiry.  If your son has not yet seen a doctor, we would recommend doing that first and then contacting us with his findings.  Being a lifelong soccer player myself and having played at various levels, I can assure you that getting advice from a good specialist first will prevent reoccuring injuries and extensive time in rehab or on sidelines.

Question
I have had this nebulizer for about 10 years and it is a great machine however, a couple of months ago the motor went out. I was wondering with a five year warranty if it is worth trying to send back to the manufacturer for repair or simply buy a new one.

Answer

Dear Ms. Cleveland:

Considering the age of the unit, it is quite possible that replacement parts are no longer available.  The cost of repair may be more expansive then a purchase of a new unit.  If you decide to proceed with a purchase of a new model, we will be happy to assist you.
