Breg T Scope Premier Post-Op Knee Brace

This is my 3rd brace and here is why: Following quad tendon surgery, I woke up with the $450 DonJoy (top of the picture) brace provided by the hospital. It is a very good and heavy duty brace that I also still use occasionally for travel. The only reason I started looking for another brace was because 1) its hard to sleep in with the big bar/flex adjustment dial on the side and 2) it did tend to slowly slip down when walking (even with crutches). I do wear shorts, but think with pants and a belt on under the brace any of these braces would hold position pretty good. It just hard to wear pants for awhile after surgery and you want the scar to get air to heal. The 2nd brace (middle in picture) cost $34 on Amazon. It's non-adjustable for flex, so only good for keep a leg straight and that works for me. It was purchased primarily because 1)sleeping (smooth side with no adjustment dial) and 2) it cheap. So it is only used for sleeping, because it easily slips down the leg when standing or walking. Now my 3rd brace was the $130 BREG. This brace has been my daily brace, except when sleeping, because of the following: 1) it is much better at not slipping than the other two 2) it has better ventilation (live in Florida) 3) its lightweight and 4) the easiest to put on. When I first got the BREG I thought the pads were cheap because did not have a soft feel, but later realized it is much better for holding to leg than a soft pad would. Also noticed that it take a few times adjusting to get it right or you can end up bruising your leg wearing and walking all day. Really got to wear it a little, then keep fine tuning to get it perfect. I can now comfortably wear all day. It also has the flex adjustment, so will be able to keep using this once rehab starts. Also all it can be slept in, especially if a back sleeper. I am a side sleeper, so dial is bothersome. However, I have napped a couple times with it on. Overall, very pleased with this brace for daily activities and use the cheap one to sleep.

This brace has worked well for my son since he had knee surgery. Good quality.

Little pricey but worth it. Very well made and recommended by the orthopedic surgeon. We've been using it for 2 months and it's still in great condition.

The price is good compared to what I could get at my doctor's. It rarely slipped down my leg on me. I could wear it with pants or on my bare skin with shorts or a skirt. Easy to adjust and lock and unlock the hinges. I had to wear it during the summer and after a few weeks, it did start to smell a little like a gym bag. I had to order some extra padding because it just got too funky. Other than that, a great product. I torn my medial meniscus recently. Instead of doing arthroscopic surgery right away, my doctor suggested that I try physical therapy to strengthen and stabilize knee. I decided to give it a try first before subjecting myself to the risks inherent in surgery. Unfortunately, I was struggling with knee stability to the point that it was difficult to walk (and I live in a city where walking is essential and crutches are nearly impossible to use). My doctor suggested buying a knee immobilizing brace that would allow me to lock my leg in a straight-leg position when walking, but then would allow me to unlock my knee so that it could bend and my leg could rest naturally while I rested/sat. This brace was great! I wore it for two months, locking my leg straight when I walked (so I walked like a pirate with a peg leg) and then unlocked my knee so that I could bend it up to 90 degrees when sitting. My knee has stabilized and strenghtened because of my physical therapy exercises and the stability the brace offered and I no longer require surgery. I'm walking normally brace-free. The brace has multiple ways that you can adjust the fit so that it doesn't slide down your leg. It allows you to adjust the minimum and maximum flexion and extension for your knee. The hinges are easily locked and unlocked. I am 4' 11.5" inches tall and I was able to wear it, but my dad, who is 6', easily wore the same brace a few years ago when he had his knee replaced.

100 % we ordered this per the doctors office visit because there’s was extremely expensive and they said this was the same one. Great for people if you don’t have health insurance and a leg up lol

Excelente calidad!!!
