Komzer OA Unloader Knee Brace, Osteoarthritis of the bone on bone Knee Support, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Knee Joint Pain and Degeneration (Black, Right)

This uploader has been perfect for me as I recover froma Meniscus lateral root tear - have worn it for 4 weeks and it has held up great. Didn’t want to buy the $550 one that ortho dr ordered.

Light weight, easy to adjust and comfortable to with with great support.

This brace starts out good but after about a month of daily wear, the hinge starts to slip. I thought it was user error but I’ve returned it 3 times and the same thing keeps happening. Now i know it’s just poorly made. Unfortunately the window to return this brace has passed and I’m forced to keep the brace that I can no longer use. Very frustrating and disappointing because it really helps with my pain, too bad the brace keeps falling apart

I've got bad knees and have tried all types of knee wraps/brace, but was not aware of this type of knee brace until I saw a video of it on-line so I decided to order one. Putting this on wasn't too bad, but I suggest using a sleeve before using this for more than a few hours. There are cushions that go underneath the straps that's supposed to help prevent irratation, but there are wavy designs on the custions. I had mine on for about 10 hours and when I took off the brace, the cushion left red welts on my leg and has not gone away even after three weeks. Use a sleeve if you can.The brace isn't very heavy, but it's not going to really matter once you start walking with it on. The fit was very good and even without a sleeve, the brace stayed in place all day. For the price I paid for the brace it was built okay. There is a hex screw that you need to adjust depending on what kind of damage you have on your knee. The metal on the hex screw seems to be a little soft as when I was ajusting the pad that goes in and out by the knee, the screw kept slipping as if it was getting stripped.Now on to whether or not this thing helped. For the price, I expected it to take some of the stress/pressure off the inside of my knee (torn meniscus). Seeing multiple videos of this brace in action, I expected the adjustable pad to push into my knee to remove some of the pressue from the inside knee. Well, it didn't do that. The pad barely touched my knee, even with turning the hex screw as far as it could go. I couldn't tell any difference between using this unloader brace from my other braces. For the money, I don't think it was worth it.However, the thing I do like about this compared to other braces is that it does a good job with controlling the side to side movement and there is nothing pressing against the meniscus. I have a couple braces that have the metal side support that slides into the the brace. The problem with those braces is once I strap them in place, the metal sides on the inside of my knee sometimes presses up against the meniscus, and when that happens it's instant pain. With this brace you won't have that issue which is probably the main reason why I like this brace over the other.If you're thinking about getting this brace I suggest checking out the videos on-line. There are many that talk this brace up, but there are some that go over the "not so good" about these braces.

Funciona muy bien para mi rodilla, cuando lo utilizo no tengo dolor.

Brace works great. I’m allergic to most braces so materials are perfect. Feel top most brace should be a hard plastic with click in connection. The strap slides down my leg

Purchased for my girlfriend after she tore her meniscus and damaged her ACL. Her surgery was set out for several weeks. After putting it on she was so happy it reduced the pain and stress on the knee for her. She is now able to power through work days in the medical field with the brace.She is 5’5’’ 125lbs all the straps were all too long but had a cool way to adjust them for her smaller size and now it fits perfectly. However I do suggest also buying a knee brace sleeve with it because how tight you need to wear it and it bothered her overtime throughout a work day. Now she has the brace and sleeve she can’t be stopped.She is still working and going to the gym working on things she can do until her surgery date comes.

I had seen a review of someone who said they had a severe skin reaction to the gel grip pads but I honestly overlooked it because I thought either A) they had it on too tight and it was just user error or B) they were just one out of a million that is super sensitive and allergic to certain things. But now after less than 12 hours of use I have welps in all 4 pleases where the gel grips were. I started feeling like my skin was on fire and being ripped apart and when I took it off I noticed the burns/welps. This is very unfortunate because the brace it’s self made my knee finally feel normal again and I was so happy to be walking with absolutely no pain!! It’s been over a year since I could say that. But the burns hurt so bad I cannot wear it. :/
