Comfort and Fit

Pros:

  • "The knee brace works great. I work in a kitchen standing on my feet all day and these braces have definitely eased my knee pain."
  • "The fit of the braces are excellent and they don't bind up behind my knee like other braces have done in the past."
  • "They're not crazy tight, and also don't slip down thanks to the grippy material around the top of the brace."
  • "They fit tightly but they don't cut of circulation."
  • "These are great. They are light weight, comfortable and give good support to my knees."
  • "This is a great knee brace! It’s supportive and thick while still be breathable and discreet."
  • "I’m 6’3” and 250lbs, and I went with the large. It fits amazing and supports my knee during my gym sessions."

Cons:

  • "However, the support is fairly minimal, so it works best as a preventative measure, rather than a protective one."
  • "But I went to try them on as well, since I like to run, they did not fit at all."
  • "I measured my thigh according to the measurement chart, but the Medium was still too big for me."
  • "Based on the reviews I really wanted this to work, as I need it for pain relief recovering from an injury on the inner left side of my knee... but it is so loose in the central knee area it just doesn't feel like there's any compression."
  • "Even when I only walked around they wouldn’t stay up well."
  • "It was still tight enough to make my feet start going numb from being to tight I was sitting in chair with my legs bent I had to take off."
  • "I wore the brace on my left knee one day for only 2 hours. This is some scaring from the inside of the brace days later!"

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "I was amazed at the quality for an extremely reasonable price."
  • "These braces work so well that I can put off knee surgery!"
  • "I love the material and softness of the material."
  • "They never get itchy, are always comfortable and honestly I forget I am wearing them most times."
  • "Washed it so many times, and the product holds up very well."
  • "The item looks good quality-wise, hope it lasts long."
  • "I also accidentally put this in the dryer after washing it and it held up through that, which is crazy."

Cons:

  • "Once wash (cold) and stitching fell apart; didn't even bother to dry them, threw them out."
  • "Looks decent but does not hold up well. Disappointed. I guess you pay for what you get."
  • "It also has started pilling."
  • "By June the silicone grip started to chunk off but surprisingly they stayed put."
  • "Unfortunately it does not hold well after a while. The bottom area towards the feet does not have a tight grip or hold on the area below the knee."
  • "After a few hours the support seemed minimal and after a few days they were actually rolling off with use."
  • "I had a few issues but you get what you pay for... the size doesn't seems accurate with the description, the stability of the sleeve doesn't work as good, since it constantly flips down."

Customer Service

Pros:

  • "Cambivo has Superb customer service."
  • "However, the best part is the seller! I had some issues with sizing but Cambivo helped me get a size that fits better. They were fast, friendly, and helpful."
  • "I contacted Cambivo and got an immediate response with a sincere message that, above all, they wanted me to have the product that would fit correctly and meet my needs."
  • "Cambivo has Superb customer service. I had issue with the size and they immediately shipped a smaller size the same day I reached out to them."

Cons:

  • "Extremely disappointed as well as disgusting. I purchased it due to arthritis in one knee. Shipment was more than 2 days."
  • "They smell so awful fresh out of the package that it makes me concerned for the factory employees involved in manufacturing."
  • "Was hopeful that this would be what I needed, however the rubber grip left this mark on my thighs as if it irritated my skin and almost feels like a burn."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "These are a good deal for a set of 2. They are thick, stable feeling...I've already washed and dried them on hot and they still kept perfect shape and work well."
  • "I loved that this came as a two pack, very economical."
  • "You get 2 knee sleeves for under $15."
  • "I loved that this came as a two pack, very economical. Also loved the color options."

Cons:

  • "I could deduct a star because they're not machine washable (which will be a bit of a headache after a few visits to the gym)."
  • "I had another compression sleeve that worked great, but used so much it was falling apart, so I purchased this one... but based on the fact I can't get any relief on the purchase I made based on their sizing suggestion, I just can't give it a decent review."
  • "This item was at least two sizes too small. I ordered based on my measurements and their size chart. Still wrong."

Use and Effectiveness

Pros:

  • "These Knee Sleeves have taken away ANY PAIN on my knees/legs."
  • "Definitely stabilizes the knees during runs."
  • "The knee supports work very well as they keep the knees in place and prevent injury."
  • "After I had two knee surgeries I get dull aches when walking for long periods or when it gets cold out and my legs swell. Takes the swelling down to a manageable size."
  • "This knee brace gives a very comfortable level of compression, and lets me walk for miles without pain."
  • "You can buy way more expensive sleeves, but will be hard pressed to find better than these."
  • "The pain/discomfort went away and I was still able to jog and jump rope."

Cons:

  • "Not enough compression to even wear on its own, with workout tights it was a bit better."
  • "Got them for knee pain, but they have low support for the kneecap."
  • "I was hoping for more support on the sides of the knee, which these don't truly offer."
  • "For me there was not enough compression around the knee."
  • "Having issues with my knees so I was looking for something to help with the pain, bought this for the compression. Well this wasn't it cause you knees to swell and when walking couldn't quite straighten up so returned."
  • "The biggest complaint with this knee sleeve is it bunches up behind the knee."
  • "Doesn't put pressure on the knees but still holds compression while allowing breathability and flexibility."
