NEENCA Professional Knee Brace for Knee Pain, Hinged Knee Support with Patented X-Strap Fixing System, Medical for Pain Relief, Arthritis, Meniscus Tear, ACL, PCL, MCL, Runner, Sport -FSA/HSA Eligible

I love this brace. In addition to having bone-on-bone Osteoarthritis, I also tore the Meniscus on my left knee.I have a different, more complex brace to wear when I go outside (I use a wheelchair mostly), but when I am home, I prefer a less cumbersome brace. Most braces do not support my knee well enough to control the pain.I finally bought this knee brace, and I now I have a winner.Throughout the day, I may sit in a regular chair or I may have to recline on my bed, because of disability. This brace allows me to keep it on even when I am reclining on the bed. It is comfortable no matter where I sit or if I am doing "furniture walking" in the apartment.Other braces did not have enough support, but this one has a lot of support.With other braces, the velcro began to NOT stick much too quickly. This brace seems to have medical-grade velcro, which is much stronger and usually lasts much longer than retail-grade aka sports-grade velcro. The only thing with the stronger velcro is that it takes a while to learn how to use it without irritating the skin on your fingers.It helps to not pull at it with the tips of the fingers. I've learned to sort of use the sides of my fingers, and that lessens the strain on my fingers.I like that there is a double strap on the top and on the bottom, allowing me to tighten (or loosen) the brace as much as I need.My only caution is choosing the size. I measured my thigh as they said to do, and my measurement was right at the border of 2 different sizes; the max on one size and the least on the next size. Since I read one reviewer say the brace was too big for her, I decided to buy the smaller of the 2 choices. Well, it turned out to be way too small for me, not even getting over my knee!I finally reached out to the seller, even though I thought I had waited too long (busy with treatments for breast cancer & other health issues), It was the last date they allowed for returns, and it was late at night. I decided to try anyway. I sent them an email, explaining the situation. The next morning, A Saturday, they responded & said they would be sending out the larger size immediately, which they did. I had it Monday morning!The larger brace fit me fine. I wanted to wait a while before doing a review. I wanted to have time to use the brace for a while, to see how good a job it does and to see if the fabric & side hinges felt sturdy. After wearing it every day for a few weeks, I have to say I am very satisfied with it. It does not irritate my skin at any point, & the hinges feel strong and are supportive. The knee cushion is very protective, too.

This knee brace works for me, thankfully. I've already had meniscus surgery on the knee but it started to hurt again five years later. I'm waiting on getting nerve ablation called Cool-ief but the wait is two months.Make sure you measure your thigh 6 inches above the knee to get the proper size. My brace is snug without tightening the velcro straps. With the straps tightened I can wear it while working without having to re-adjust the brace.The brace is a temporary fix, I'm great full it's available and works like a boss. The brace reduces 80% of the pain which is better than expected. I tried wearing the brace over my pants but it felt weird. I put on the brace then my jeans over the brace, no troubles.

I love this knee brace. It helps support my knee very well and eliminates a lot of my pain, though not all, but I can’t expect it to ease it all. I even fell while wearing it and it helped prevent a lot of potential damage and pain to my knee that would’ve occurred had I not been wearing it. It took most of the impact as I fell on the top of the knee part where the circular padding is. I wore this while hiking and I honestly believe my knee would’ve been much more worn afterwards had I not worn this brace.I love that it has so much size adjustability and that it isn’t so bulky and ugly. It also bends with my knee very well and seems well built.It holds up pretty nicely and overall is definitely worth the purchase.It is seamless in the way that it has to be put on like a pair of jeans instead of being placed over top and strapped on like some other smaller ones. This is nice as it helps with the support, however, it does cause struggle with wearing over my jeans as they ride up with the brace as I pull it up into place. I’m sure if I got a larger size this may help at least a little bit.The only thing I don’t love about it is that it keeps slightly bunching at the knee pit and causing discomfort there and it tends to slip down a smidge requiring adjusting, though not as bad as some others. This might be remedied if I got a larger size, but I’m not sure.

I’ve tried multiple knee braces for a torn medial meniscus and this is my favorite. There is a big difference in size between large and XL. I wish they had something in between. I ended up buying one of each size. I wear the smaller size if I need maximum stability during exercise. I wear the bigger size if I’m more concerned with comfort and when I don’t want to feel the top of the brace cutting into the area above my knee.

Velcro rubs on skin. Painful

Love this brace! The brace that my insurance paid for was so uncomfortable didn't fit correctly and made the day hard. This brace gives you stability but also let's you move, this in my opinion is true to size and I love how simple the straps are.

Dead serious, this brace became a life changer for my mobility and knee stability after my injury. I'm finally able to take my dog for short walks and I can slowly limp my way around my home without holding onto the walls for dear life. I'm very very happy with this purchase. It's comfortable, you can adjust the straps/support easily, and all around a good brace. One thing to note, this is a brace you have to pull up to your knee and peel it back down. Totally fine for before surgery, but if you can barely touch your knee because it hurts so much, you'll want something else.100% happy with my purchase!
