As described - easy to put on.

Pros: Easy to put on; Applied a small amount of diluted washing up liquid on stems and put tubes in warm - hot water for a few seconds to soften them before pushing them onto rest.

Cons: None

Other: Stringzone service was excellent & very quick delivery; unexpectedly arrived in time for first violin lesson.

Tricky to fit
1 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: This is exactly what you need to buy if the rubber feet on you Kun shoulder rests have perished.

Cons: These are the most difficult things to get on and I began to wish I'd just bought another shoulder rest! To minimise the horror of putting these things on, run them under hot water, with a little washing up liquid to get them to expand and ease on. What a job, even then! My thumbs have recovered now but I hope these things last for YEARS.

Other: Difficult to rate. 5* for quality of product, 1* for ease of fitting, hence 3* overall.

Review of Purchase of Kun foot tube

Pros: It is made of the right material

Cons: It is short and the website should sell them as a set for the shoulder rest, or at least specify the length of the tube.

Better than buying whole new shoulder rest
1 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: The fact that you can buy these as spare parts, as there are so many things these days that we have to throw away when bits perish. Not difficult to fit, just a a bit of perserverance required.

Cons: -

Getting to grips with a Kun!
1 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: Had to order foot tubes as new Kun shoulder rest continually fell off! Have not fitted them yet, as resorted to spare Wolf rest. Was advised to get foot tubes by fellow player, who had same problem with his new Kun shoulder rest. However, he has had good success with the foot tubes. [tip, he says,"Apply with a bit of spit!"]

Cons: The need to use them at all, as the shoulder rest should have adequate gripping power built in, as formerly, or be supplied with "grips".

Other: String Zone cam up trumps in supplying required item, as always. Am recommending "you" to others.

Exact replacement for originals

Pros: They worked as well as they original rubbers that came with the new shoulder rest

Cons: Very difficult to put on, but then if they were not tight they wouldn't do the job. Expensive for all that they are.

Doesn't grip very well

Pros: N/a

Cons: I needed to replace the old shoulder rest tubes which were perishing. This rubber doesn't seem as sticky as the old one and the rest keeps falling off.
