As someone who's used multiple therapy putty brands, the CanDo TheraPutty stands out for its versatility. The 6-piece set offers progressive resistance levels (pink being softest, black extra firm), making it perfect for rehabilitation or casual stress relief. I personally love the non-sticky, crumble-free texture – unlike cheaper alternatives that leave greasy residue.

The 'buried objects' exercise mentioned in reviews is genius! I hide beads in my medium-green putty during work breaks to strengthen pinching muscles. After 3 months of daily use post-wrist injury, my grip strength improved noticeably. The latex-free material stays fresh without drying – a major win compared to putties that harden over time.

Parents will appreciate how kids naturally engage with it; my nephew uses the soft pink one for sensory play while unknowingly developing fine motor skills. Therapists will confirm the accurate resistance levels – the black truly requires forearm effort! Minor gripe? I wish containers were larger for advanced users needing bigger portions.

Pro tip: Store in fridge between uses to maintain ideal consistency. Whether you're recovering from surgery, managing stress at work, or helping a child's development, this set delivers lasting quality worth every penny.
