Arthritis Wares exists to help people with arthritis live more comfortably, safely, and independently — through practical tools, honest reviews, and guidance that skips the jargon.
The site is founded and personally curated by John Allan, who lives with arthritis and understands these daily struggles firsthand — not just as a reviewer, but as someone navigating the same stiffness, grip pain, and mobility limits our readers deal with.
Why Arthritis Wares Exists
Living with arthritis can turn ordinary tasks — cooking, dressing, walking, even relaxing — into painful challenges. After years of working through these struggles personally, John started Arthritis Wares to go beyond generic advice and overwhelming product lists.
The goal is simple: help you find tools and strategies that genuinely make daily life easier, evaluated by someone who has a real stake in whether they actually work.
What You’ll Find Here

Background
Before founding Arthritis Wares, John spent over 30 years as a quality assurance inspector and government procurement advisor — evaluating products against strict manufacturing, safety, and durability standards. That background now shapes how every product on this site gets evaluated. See our full review process on the How We Review Products page.
