    I know nobody is going to want to hear this one, but doing the dishes by hand in really, really, warm water (as warm as you can stand) works wonders!!! I also suffer from achy fingers and hands ~ Recently our dishwasher broke so I’ve been doing the dishes by hand and the pain is gone! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

    Are you using it in spin mode only then?

    I liked mine better without the pad too! Much more stable.

    I use it in both spin and static modes with no problems and without the pad and collar. I’m going to take the advise of joni1 and get some industrial strength velcro for extra reinforcement!

    Set my Star Stand Alone (1.75) up this morning without the round rubber pad that’s supposed to go under the base, and without the collar ~ What an improvement!!! I just cut one of my old yoga mats in half to use under the base, as I have wood floors, and that worked beautifully! The pole barely moved and there was very little movement or noise from the base. If you are not going to use the collar, just don’t step too close to the edges ~ However, I didn’t have any issues. I’m liking my Star Stand Alone MUCH better now https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

    Thanks joni1 ~ I will give the velcro a try! We are taking our pole on the road this weekend for a demo ~ It will be a big time saver by not having to mess with that collar! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Just got my 1.75 star stand alone 2 days ago! It does wobble, but I feel secure on it. It’s very easy to set-up and take down ~ Tightening the "collar" takes the longest. It does come unscrewed a little when spinning lefty. Overall I think it’s a "good" portable pole.

    Yes, I think they run small. I have a pair of (never-been-worn) "star light-up" platforms in a size 7 if anyone is interested! If you are normally a 61/2, they should fit you perfectly https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
