"I have bone-on-bone arthritis in my left knee. My orthopedic surgeon wanted to order a £1,500 knee brace for support before a total knee replacement next year. I remembered that I had this knee support about several years ago when I was on holiday and it helped me get through the walking. I went looking for it in my travel accessories but had no luck finding it. So I had a look online and found it! The point of this is that this really works. With it, I don't need to use any pain relief and am able to walk without main or worrying about support for my knee."

“I was in a car accident 10yrs ago. My right knee folds up on me when I do a lot of physical activity. I have tried a lot of things. I have spent money for things I never even wore because they hurt. But this summer, I had agreed to help a friend move. I kept imagining myself falling up or down the flight of stairs at my friends new place. I read a lot of reviews. I did not want to fall!! At long last, I purchased this band. This thing works like magic. It kept my knee stable and my knee was less sore than usual after a lot of trips up and down steps! And I didn’t fall!!! I never even stumbled!! And I can’t recommend this band enough!! You will forget your even wearing it!!! So comfortable!!! If you need support or relief for your knee- you can’t go wrong with this purchase!!”

"This is my second FLX knee brace and they are awesome. I had to replace it because my very large puppy decided it should be a chew toy....that's what I get for not putting it up after taking it off. Anyhow, I have had a number of knee injuries over the years, resulting in patella and tendon weakness. I find using this brace really offers support without bulkiness and fits well under levis. I put it on mornings my knee feels unsteady and can leave it on all day without agitation or discomfort. It is important to adjust securely without being too tight. Because I stay active and sit very little durng the day there is no need to remove it until evening. I walk with my dog daily and we live in hilly terrain so the support is awesome. I definitely recommend this brace for moderate support."

"Usually after running, I limp around for a day or so with terrible knee pain. I did a little research to find out what caused this pain and if it was something that I should be concerned about. My research led me to this little band. WOW! I'll say it again - WOW! I love the shape of it (as opposed to other knee supports that are straight) because it hugs at exactly the right spots. Its a sturdy support while the padding keeps it comfortable. Its a far better design than the straight bands. Who knew that pain was not just a natural part of running? Hey! Maybe I can finally run that 10K now!?!"

"I swear these are magic; when it arrived it looked so inconsequential I was sure it would not do anything, but lo and behold! Couple of hours later minimal knee pain and a day or so later, none at all. It somehow massages as you walk and gives you support. Worth every penny and then some! Unlike bigger braces this doesn't interfere with bending the knee and can barely be seen under slacks. Being rather small it is also a lot less hot than bigger neoprene or ace bandages, which is great with all day wear and in the summer."
