I purchased a Chest Binder from Tynor Australia (Australian Healthcare Supplies) after taking the precaution of making a phonecall to them, and relying on their so-called expert advice on sizing. The product arrived one size too large and was entirely unsuitable. Despite this being entirely their error, they refused to accept a return, citing irrelevant policies and dismissing their responsibility by claiming their advice was merely 'general.'
First, they claimed the product should be used under a physician’s direction—completely unrelated to the fact that they gave me the wrong size. Then, they used a “sanitary/health” excuse to deny the return, even though Australian Consumer Law states that hygiene policies do not override consumer rights when a product is unfit for its intended purpose. Finally, they mentioned a restocking fee—something that does not apply when a refund is legally required.
This company hides behind restrictive policies to avoid taking responsibility for their mistakes. If you value your rights as a consumer, avoid Tynor Australia (Australian Healthcare Supplies) at all costs—they will not support you if something goes wrong. Before purchasing, I strongly recommend researching other customer reviews, as I have since found many similar complaints regarding sizing and product quality issues.
It is also worth noting that reviews under 4 stars, are impossible to publish. I can only imagine that this is to keep average ratings higher. Also, your review will be taken down if it is casting a particularly negative light on Tynor.

The splint is true to size, very solid construction, lightweight, and as comfortable as it can be for its function. All edges are smooth, the foam has remained attached to the metal, and the strapping is well padded.
