I got the device to check how wide I should order shoes to accommodate a bunion. I needed to watch a video to learn that the appropriate width is based on arch length rather than foot length. I still have a problem, though its not an issue with the Brannock device. Wide shoes (2E) turned out to be too wide in the heel because the overall shoe is wider, not just the toe box. Stretching D's sideways seems to work better than heel inserts on wide shoes, though custom made shoes would be ideal. Maybe individual shoe manufacturers have solved this dilemma. It would be nice to have heel width measures on shoes and Brannock devices.
