Great product for the price. I wore this for six hours and it made an incredible difference in my knee pain. Yes, there are a lot of Velcro straps, but very easy to get it on, just takes a little longer than others. It is big, covers a large part of your leg, but I think that is why it is so effective. Definitely worth the time to put it on. I do have a different, smaller brace I use when getting a little more dressed up, and not using it a long time. For day to day, this is my go to.

I've been trying to find a knee brace for a while and have tried 2 or 3 others before this one. None of them would stay up, they all kept sliding down my leg. This one though stays in place perfectly. No sliding or slipping. I don't have to keep adjusting it. It stays in place and gives my knee the support it needs. My pain level had decreased significantly and I'm able to sleep without waking up in excruciating pain now!! What a difference! I highly recommend this knee brace if you're struggling with pain issues like me. I'm thrilled to be sleeping better because of it!

I’m writing after 3 days use. It seems very good at what it’s intended for. It added a lot of support and gave me confidence to walk about without worry of my knee locking. 4 stars cuz I can already see some minor degradation, in stitches at stress points.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:My knee has been bone on bone for several years and I’ve tried countless different knee braces. This brace is amazing. All day at work with this brace on and when I got home my knee was nowhere near as sore as it usually is. IT WORKS. Just buy it you won’t regret it.

The 3 star rating is based on my practical use of this knee brace. I wanted something sturdy and supportive and this brace certainly provides that. The size chart also seems to be accurate. The problem I had is the design of the brace is just too much. I watched the video and it looked simple enough to use, however, in practice, it is quite cumbersome to put on. Once on, it works and feels good. But there are so many velcro straps and some are too long, that you spend time untangling it all. You first wrap the brace around your knee and where the 2 ends meet behind the knee and you overlap them using the velcro strips on the brace to hold it in place, both at the top and at the bottom. Meanwhile, you are navigating around the 4 extra long velcro straps that are hanging. Once you have secured the brace at the top and bottom by overlapping it behind your knee, then you start the process of feeding the 4 velcro straps through their designated hoops. If you find the brace isn't snug enough you have to re-do the overlapping portions behind your knee. If you try to make the brace more snug by tightening the velcro straps, then the sections you overlapped become bunched up. Like I said, once I could get it properly adjusted, it felt great and offered great support. But I found the process of putting it on more than I wanted to deal with on a daily basis. I had to return it...too much work. Sizing chart was accurate for me.

Item itself gets a 5 star, but the delivery driver was very unprofessional and rude to my teenage daughter. There was no reason my daughters age should have been brought up by the delivery driver. My package did not require a signature by a person 18+, and I've never had a driver take a picture of my packages when they are handed to a resident of the home.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Extremely supportive. I’m recovering from a lcl strain and my knee felt unstable, making me afraid to walk. After some adjustments, I felt almost normal, at times I even felt like my knee was 100%

Great product for my particular muscle,joint injury condition. Durable, I wear it every day. For extra support for daily activities. Material could be more Durable for wearing under work pants.Fabric tends to rub and wear a hole fairly quickly.
