Comfort and Fit

Pros:

  • "One of the standout features of this knee brace is its comfort and adjustability. The breathable neoprene material is soft against the skin."
  • "It's the first brace I've been able to wear on my bare skin, even in the current hot weather."
  • "The brace is comfortable, strong Velcro should hold up quite well, and adjusts to fit how you need it to."
  • "It's relatively comfortable and very stable thanks to the thick padding and inside material which holds the brace in place and keeps it from sliding down."
  • "The brace is quite comfortable."
  • "I love this knee brace! It holds nicely in place while walking and the extra straps add a nice amount of support."
  • "It is easy to put on and after a while you don't notice it is on."

Cons:

  • "Every now and then the straps burn the back of my knee from movement."
  • "This is supposed to be 'one size fits most' but it's not very snug around the actual knee itself."
  • "I'm a 230# woman and this was quite difficult to put on as the part above the knee wasn't really big enough."
  • "There’s just way too much gap at the lower part of brace and it flaps up."
  • "The top is not wide enough because of this, the Velcro chafes."
  • "The pressure on the calf is uncomfortable."
  • "Very bulky. I couldn’t even get it on. Will not fit under clothes (pants)."

Support and Stability

Pros:

  • "I definitely feel like my knee is supported and have more stability."
  • "This brace has been crucial in my recovery, I run at work and I’ve been using it every day."
  • "The pain was almost non-existent, and I felt confident to step with that leg and didn't have to worry that my knee was going to collapse on me."
  • "This brace gave good support and pressure allowing me to walk in relative comfort and return to work."
  • "It stabilizes my knee for sure and is very adjustable to the strength of stability I need."
  • "The gel pad protects the anterior kneecap area very nicely and helps stabilize the knee anteriorly."
  • "The knee brace provides excellent support."

Cons:

  • "with age it is losing support."
  • "Wearing this just made it worse."
  • "The Velcro did not last at all."
  • "I have arthritis in my knee and I was hoping that the brace would help relieve the pain a bit but it didn't."
  • "The only reason I have not given 5 stars is that it tends to pinch the skin at the back of your knee."
  • "It doesn’t stay in place during workouts, the Velcro is constantly coming undone and I don’t have full range of motion."
  • "The straps rip off all the time and it loses ALL support."

Durability and Quality

Pros:

  • "I can also say that I've now had this brace for several months using it at least three times a week and it's holding up very well with no signs of deterioration."
  • "Very well constructed knee brace. At least that's what impressed me."
  • "This product met my expectations 👍either you use on a daily Basis to perform your day-to-day routine or while exercising."
  • "Used the product three times, and by the looks of it, the product proves to be of quality and utility."
  • "Great support and great quality. Does not slide and supported me through a whole day with a known laxed ACL and torn meniscus."
  • "For the price it has many features and feels very well made."
  • "The price is excellent as is the quality."

Cons:

  • "The Velcro's grabbing ability wore out after just 1 week."
  • "I have been wearing this brace while playing soccer and after only 2 months the stitching is coming apart exposing the gel pad around the patella."
  • "The Velcro and what it sticks to just wears out."
  • "After using it just for two months, the velcro doesn't work that well, and the stitches are coming off."
  • "It’s been few months now and the Velcro does not stick."
  • "Slowly the Velcro started to get more and more worn."
  • "I have only had it 5 months and the velcro won't stay."

Customer Service

Pros:

  • "It’s a well made brace but it did not work for me. Lisa, the customer service rep, went out of her way to make sure I was satisfied."
  • "First and foremost, their customer service is excellent."
  • "They apologized for the issue. And sent me a new brace, which I had in 2 days."
  • "They responded the same day. Made a suggestion, asked questions to narrow down the possibilities."
  • "Great customer service, my first order was a little too small, but found me a perfect replacement."

Cons:

  • "Ordered this brace for my 87 year old mother who needed knee support. The written instructions didn’t match the video demonstration of how to put it on."
  • "Quality control is an issue here. The product arrived with no size on box or stitched into fabric."
  • "The box had been ripped open and then taped back up. The brace was just stuffed in the box."
