5.0 out of 5 stars Secure and easily adjustable
I twisted my knee after falling down my basement stairs. The orthopaedist appointment was a 3-week wait and I had to do something.I bought this brace as an alternative to the huge, full-leg, highly restrictive, uncomfortable brace that the hospital sent home with me.The first time I put this brace on, I could feel the stability without any restrictions. It fit well under my jeans. In three days I was (very slowly) walking up and down my cellar stairs again [with the brace and a cane]. Within 10 days I was able to walk two miles with my dog, and by the time i first saw the Ortho doctor, he congratulated me on healing myself by staying mobile and taking it slow.This brace is easily adjusted to give you just the right amount of pressure and it is so comfortable, that I forgot I had it on most days. Without it, I would easily have twisted my knee when trying to sleep or waling around in my garden.If you have arthritic knees or need a little stability, I believe this brace will be helpful.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent support
These knee braces are perfect for comfort and support! The extra cross straps also help prevent the knee braces from slipping down your leg. Great product idea that actually works to keep the braces in place! I highly recommend these knee braces for fit, design, and comfort!
4.0 out of 5 stars Easy to put on and adjust
I use this knee brace at night when my poor knees require extra support. I like that it slaps right on there without having to pull the darn thing up my leg. It also makes adjustments super easy to make. The straps are great, appropriately supportive, and adjustable for the stability I require. The velcro is also decent and strong enough to hold for several hours, or overnight in my case. I found this brace pretty comfortable considering I sleep in it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good knee brace
Have a bad knee and finally decided to get a knee brace. This one is comfortable but supportive. Easy to put on and sturdy.
3.0 out of 5 stars Knee comfort sleeve
Doufurt supplies a free gift with the knee brace. This review will cover the sleeve as well as the brace.1. Brace. This is a great knee brace. It completely stabilizes my knee without sacrificing too much range of motion. There is some restriction which is necessary but this brace still offers great movement. I can now play golf without any knee pain. The brace stabilizes lateral movement of the knee which is key to relieving knee pain due to arthritis. 5 stars for the brace2. Comfort sleeve. The sleeve is part of the order, listed as a ‘gift’. It eliminates chafing between the brace and the knee. However, the sleeve is made of very thin material which will tear over time as mine did. See photo attached. I want to order more sleeves, but the Doufurt response claims this is a gift and not for sale. This is why the overall rating for this brace is 3 stars. It should be included with the order, not as a gift but as something you can order additionally. Perhaps a pack of 3 would be nice.3. In a previous question the response from Doufurt was to reach out to the seller’s website and send a request to their website. I could not find a Doufurt email address. Reaching out to Bolo’s email will not work. So I’m not sure what the email reference was.4. Overall, the brace receives a 5 star but the sleeve construction and the inability to order additional sleeves gives the product a 3 star rating.Update to my first review:I gave the brace an overall 3 star but now will increase it to 5 stars. The reason is the quality of customer service. The company agreed to send some new comfort sleeves. Also, the first brace developed a tear in it after only 5-6 wearings. I requested a replacement which they immediately shipped to me. This is a great brace that limits some lateral movement while allowing normal flexing of the knee. I would recommend this brace.
5.0 out of 5 stars The best knee brace I have found for thick thighs RECOMMEND
I injured my knee and the massive leg brace provided from the ER could NOT stay up did not work once I was up and walking around. I mean it was great to protect the knee but if it can not stay in place it is useless. It constantly slid down causing pain in the foot and not stabilizing the knee at all. Even tying it to a belt only gave it bare functionality. With thick thighs and smaller calf it was impossible to think the full leg brace would stay in place. I was in pain and desperate to protect my knees I started doing a lot of research. I knew the one piece neoprene knee "braces" would slide down for same reason or squeeze uncomfortably into the leg fat (always too small) and while only providing compression but no stability.So now the actual review (background helps with understanding). They had good reviews and were not overly expensive and as I was desperate I took a chance.I really liked how they Velcroed above and below the knee to give custom fit without hurting the knee itself more. There are also some stabilizing built in on the sides of the knee where it makes most sense. I was able to bend the knee just a bit but that was helpful with getting comfortable and wearing 23 hours a day. My knee was not feeling stable and the brace really helped with giving me more confidence to walk with a cane instead of the cumbersome walker. I still have to be careful with my steps because the knee was not healed but SOOOO much more freedom.Now just attaching the top and bottom Velcro pieces would not have been enough to stabilize the knee. There was no possible way to put them tight enough to hold the joint in place.This is where I fell in love with these braces. The two straps which come around the front of the brace, around the back of the knee and Velcro securely on the top front of the brace really and tie it all together. The straps were the perfect length for the size of the brace. I could tighten all the way to the logo for most stability or just to front sides for lighter stability. My knee felt so safe and really reduced the pain level of not wearing a brace.Two things in the listing really were spot on. They have multiple sizes so they recommend measuring the thigh a few inches above the knee and matching their size chart. This directed me to the size for the best fitting knee brace EVER. I have never had such an easy time getting a brace that actually fit my dimensions. The second item that was really helpful was the video showing how the straps correctly wrapped around. No a long video but made it very clear which way to wrap the straps for best functionality.The only thing that was not spot on was the cloth sleeve they provide to put under the brace. There is an open area behind the knee that you need but the fat rubs a bit and the edges can rub into the skin a bit. So they provide a cloth sleeve to place under the brace but... they did not take into account that this was a large brace and the sleeve is was not large enough so did not come up high enough. I didn't care because I did not know it came with that cloth sleeve. But if they actually put in the package a sleeve large enough to come up higher than the brace it would have been perfect. I just wore the brace over a pair of Capri leggings when out walking about or over PJ bottoms at home and was very comfortable. I did wear it under a pair of leggings one day and it worked and the brace was less noticeable but I just like better over leggings. Plus I got to choose the color strips in the brace and got a color I like so the brace is spruced up.Really this brace has been the most functional knee brace I have ever used and I will likely get a second one if the other knee is cranky at the same time. Plus I will recommend to everyone I know to get this brace if they need effective joint stability and different size thighs.RECOMMEND !!!Oh and BTW don't try to be a superhero. Your knee is still injured and needs time to heal. This brace will not magically heal your knee, it'll just keep the knee safe while healing. Trust me I know. :P
5.0 out of 5 stars Great, comfortable knee brace!
This is a great knee brace! Very supportive while not being too rigid. Over time the velcro wears out (after 2 years of heavy use), but I've always come back to this one...others don't compare!
