Sports Medicine Self Adjusting Knee Brace for Men and Women, Knee Stabilizer for Compression and Pain Relief Support, Ideal for Arthritis, Sprains, Black, One Size

Supports my arthritic knee pretty well. I’m wearing it for daily wear, not jogging/running or other sports. Walking and daily activity. Comfortable enough, with no pinching or gouging, to wear all day. I sleep in it as well when I need some nighttime relief. Replaced an older Ace open back brace, and this is as good or better. Prevents the soreness, stiffness and swelling I get when active and not wearing a brace. I much prefer the open/wrap around style. The pull on/over style is just not as convenient for me as the wrap around. I also believe the wrap around braces are more comfortable. The brace can also be put on or taken off without removing shoes. That’s a big deal if you want, or need, to remove the brace during the day, or forget to put it on before putting your shoes on. I’ve only had it a month or so, so I can’t speak to how durable the brace is, or isn’t. . It’s a $15 brace, it’s not a miracle device. If you needed a knee replacement 5 years ago and still haven’t had it done, it’s probably not going to help you all that much. For an old damaged, 4 times operated on knee that is going to need to be replaced in a few years, it is helping delay that replacement. Good support. Comfortable. Convenient. Having crappy knees and being old simultaneously, isn’t for the weak. This brace makes life easier and less painful. Update - this brace is still working and performing as desired. Sad to note the design change. Seems like a bad decision. Maybe they'll change it back.

The brace helped stabilize my knee while allowing me to continue to function. It fit well and is of solid construction. Very durable I am impressed with the value for the money.

I purchased this to treat a non-infected, trauma-induced bursitis (swelling) at the knee. I chose this product because of the extra elastic bands across the top and bottom of the kneecap as well as the price. Right off, I noticed a great decrease in my discomfort level, and was able to keep on my feet all day. After a week, the swelling had gone down considerably and I was able to increase my range of motion. The hook and loops ("Velcro") adjusting straps allows for a tighter and tighter fit as the swelling continues to go down. This has greatly accelerated my recovery. The only complaint is that the lower strap needs more "loop" area for the hooks to grab onto. (The lower strap has popped off a few times during extreme knee bending.) Overall, very satisfied with the quality and performance.

Works good for my wife

I have purchased the Mueller # 56427 four times in the past 12 years and have historically been well pleased with the product. I was surprised, however, when this one arrived. The Neoprene is thinner than prior versions, and the velcro straps are about 1/3 narrower than the early versions of the product. These two factors combine to make the knee brace seem less supportive. I would rank the earlier versions of the product a 5-star. This one just doesn't meet my needs as well.

This knee support is exactly what I was looking for. It offers good support while stabilizing the patella. I have had similar braces where the materials bunched up at the back of the knee. This support is designed without materials directly behind the knee so there is no bunching of material which makes it much more comfortable to wear.

I put this on an 8 1/2 X 11 piece of printer paper for size reference. First, the gel "donut" is only half, not all the way around. The other brace I bought from a different brand has a full circle of padding. The straps and Velcro are sturdy but one side is very, very small area of Velcro that the strap is supposed to attach to. For comfort, there is no leeway, or the Velcro scratches the back of your leg. There is no give to the straps at all which is good for support but since the long strap also attaches to a very small area of Velcro, I'm not sure how there is a "range" of sizes listed. The other brace I purchased, based on the measurements, according to the directions, fit me perfectly. This is too small and CANNOT BE RETURNED. My bad, I guess, for not paying attention to the return policy. I thought it was an Amazon Prime item. Second, if this is NOT a returnable item, then I would love to know why the one that I received had CLEARLY BEEN OPENED BY SOMEONE ELSE, YET SOLD AS NEW. The clear security tape had been opened removed and was folded over the plastic packaging. This was NOT NEW, though it is not dirty, so hard to tell if it has been worn before. My guess is that someone else had the same experience that I did but was somehow able to return it. I try to buy items manufactured in the USA, when available but in this case, although the item seems sturdy it's very poorly designed for a "range" of sizes as "one size" does not fit "most". Very disappointed in the inaccurate sizing and a used item sold as new. I am now stuck with two braces (since I also bought the hinged version and it's too small as well).

Very nice product for stabilisation

Die Kniestütze funktioniert, ist leicht anzulegen und bietet einen (gefühlsmäßig) wirklich stabilen Halt. Genau das was ich gesucht habe. Die Knieprobleme beim Joggen (Ich weiß, nich joggen wenn das Knie weh tun.....) sind mit der Stütze Geschichte. Das Material und die Verarbeitung machen auf mich auch einen sehr guten Eindruck. Einziger Kritikpunkt für mich ist die Größe. Meine Beine sind nich gerade Schlank, aber ich muss die Stütze um einen festen Halt zu bekommen etwas -wie soll ich sagen- "überlappen" beim Schließen. Sie hält aber trotzdem. Is eben 1 size... Also wenn man nicht zu schlanke Beine hat dann gibt's von mir ne klare Kaufempfehlung.

However, sweat may cause a slight displacement over the knee because of the continuous movements.

Offers good support and mobility while bending and lifting weights

My wife has has injuries to her knees over the years and about a year ago she bought one of these to wear in the gym and found that they aided her a lot. When her other knee started to give her discomfort she decided to have support for it. In my wisdom I decided that she should try a different type with ajustable straps to see if that would be better. Bad mistake. The other one proved to be too large and restricting. I returned it to amazon and bought this one again and there was happiness all round. This stabalizer provides just enough support without making you look like an out and out Jock.
