Wellnee Knee Brace with Silicone Padding - Wellknee Compression Sleeve for Men & Women - Joint Support that Massages & Boosts Circulation During Walking, Running & Exercise

I have a bad knee that hurts so bad most of the time. I have 7 different knee braces and sleeves plus arthritis creams I try also. Nothing seems to help much at all. Sooo I decided to give it a try and to my surprise it fit well but will it help with the pain and YES it does!! Very happy I went on and bought it. I don’t wear it all the time but I sure do when I have a lot to do. Price wise a bargain and I really like the velcro for comfort and fit.

The knee brace was very hard to put on and when I finally figured out how to put the brace on it was very uncomfortable and it kept sliding down my knee. After a couple of steps I took it off. I bought two because of the advertisement and returned them immediately and went with a full knee brace that slides up and covers the knee completely.

When I initially tried this product I found it helpful in relieving some knee pain I had but when I actually tested it for the purpose I needed it for which is on my outdoor walks I found it very itchy and it would change positions with the movement. So halfway through the walk it would shift off my knee and I would have to stop to adjust it which I found annoying.

Initially looked at all the review which seemed very positive. Upon receiving, and placing it on my knee, it did indeed feel very comfortable and offered good support. The issue I had was that the velcro straps kept undoing. When I was wearing shorts it wasn't that much of an issue, however when wearing long slacks, it became very irritating to adjust and reattach. I would suggest a stronger velcro strap. Unfortunately I had to return and try another type of support.

So, to start, I'm 41, overweight with severe arthritis in both knees (thanks, Grandma), bone on bone. When I walk, my knees feel like they're encased in air splints. Going up steps I can hear my left knee grinding together. If I stand still for too long my left knee locks up and it's agonizing when it pops free again. I work a physical job, and my desk is up on a mezzanine (there is a lift but it's on the other side of the mezzanine from where I typically work) so halfway through my shift I can barely walk. Celebrex barely works, Euflexxa was ineffective... you get the picture.I got these knee braces on a whim, almost didn't bother bc knee braces don't usually do much but roll down bc my thighs are so thick. Boy, am I glad I did. While they don't take the pain away completely, they somehow keep my joints from grinding together, I think this lessens the inflammation, so it's not as painful to walk. We ran so many errands today with more walking than I'm usually comfortable with (next to none) and I barely had any pain at all.Yes, the Velcro sucks. I can't determine yet if it's the hook Velcro (though this isn't sewn on well, that's an easy fix) or the material it needs to attach to. Anyone with two working hands and a brain can sew Velcro back on, or replace a strap. I just ordered two more to wear on weekends when my work pair are in the laundry. UPDATE: Not every pair has junky Velcro!4 stars for functionality, minus one star for the low grade Velcro.

Works great

I received this knee brace after all the advertising and hoped it would be the answer to my damaged knee. How in the world would any manufacturer send out a brace like this with numerous holes and Velcro in and on the straps and absolutely no directions on how to attaché the brace to my knee?!I’m very disappointed after numerous attempts on my part to “figure it out on my own” with no luck.

Husband says this works better than anything else he tried. Good support, fits under pants, comfortable, stays put.
