FinBurst Knee Brace - First Class Reinforced Support for ACL, MCL, Meniscus, Arthritis & More

On the whole a great product and I wouldn't have been walking at all this last week without it, but there is truly no such thing as "one size fits all". The center strap is 17 1/2 " long rather than the 18 " claimed. It should be 2 inches longer because even though it goes around my knee and attaches to the body of the brace, it is not long enough to allow for all of the long velcro strip to attach so I have rubbed a sore place on the bend of the back of my knee from the exposed velcro. This is most uncomfortable. Also it could use 2 more stays, one behind each of the existing stays on either side of the knee to provide greater support around the sides for larger knees. The price is great but I would willingly pay a little more to have a larger size that fits better. It is well made and has held up well this last week with no signs of deterioration. With a few little changes it would be an excellent brace.

I have a pretty messed up knee after I got hit by a car when I was walking. This Knee brace help a bit and give me the support I need when I go for a short walk. It's hard to stay put and always slipping for some reason. I have to fix it a couple times when wearing it. I can snug it too tight cause then it will bother my blood circulation. Overall, it is good for the price I paid.

I've been doing the C25K training and I have never in my life been a runner. After the 3rd week I started to have issues with runner's knee in both of my knees. It got to the point where I had to take a week off. I had a choice to either give up running or find a brace that worked for me. With that in mind, I went to Amazon and began my search. After several days research and review reading I decided to purchase the FinBurst knee braces for both my knees.Well, last night was my first run with them on and after I got the position correct and the straps adjusted correctly I ran like a dream. I woke up today with ZERO pain. That hasn't happened in weeks. Once I had them on properly, they stayed in place throughout my entire run, which is amazing considering the heat and humidity I have to deal with here in FL. The non-slip gripping on the inside held nicely. And the velcro held like a champ! I did my stretches and full run while wearing them and these braces held on tight. I love them and I'm very happy with my purchase!

Fits pretty good, I mean I'm in my 50's and my knee is worn out, but before I have knee replacement (that nobody i've talked to says it's better then new) I'm trying everything I can to stave off the inevitable and this Brace is OK better then others in all price ranges and I can wear it for 8+ hours before I have to remove it. That's a good deal longer then most. Also the support is pretty fair like I mentioned my knee is worn out so if you need a brace for the money your not going to go wrong.

I like being able to use on either knee and adjustments are easy.I find bending the knee challenging, however, so I like the braces best for standing and walking. I have bakers cysts in the back of both knees, so the adjustability is very important.Best knee brace I have tried so far.I also like that you can roll each one up when not in use, so they are more easily stored in a backpack or handbag.

I played soccer with my son and it felt great. I need to repeat that many times since I will be ordering another one to where on both legs simultaneously. My story is that I was always and avid sports guy. Tennis, weightlifting, strength training, football and cycling. I am now older and with time the joints, muscles, and body changes. I am sure that you know it goes downhill as you age. My title is holistic support since I prefer to cover the fact that this product does exactly what I was hoping for without “medicine”. The support is exactly in the place it needs to be which is the knee and the surrounding top and bottom. The Velcro seems very strong, which leads me to believe that the product will last quite a long time. I must end with how excited I am to have played soccer with my son at a competitive level without the aches and pain of old joints.

The first knee brace I got from my Ortho specialist worked but was too tight (my toes turned blue). The second one is too big even with the velcro straps. It seems I need a medium and a half, which they don't have. After looking through Amazon I found this. The brace came in just a few days (thanks, Amazon Prime!), and it's been a joy. The brace has gummy zig zags inside on the top and bottom to keep it from sliding, the three straps with velcro are very strong. Since this is a one size fits... most, there is a small square of velcro tape inside the top and bottom strap to help hold things in place better. It was scratching my leg since I'm not skinny, but they were easily removed with a seam ripper. With this comfortable brace my mobility has improved. The brace is cushioned enough to be comfortable and holds things in place (I'm waiting on a full knee replacement and also have a torn meniscus), yet it's not bulky and fits easily under my pants. I would recommend this product, it's made a difference in my life.

My doctor thinks I should have a knee replacement, but as long as a brace will work for me, I will keep the knee God gave me. I bought one of these braces about a year ago to see if it worked better than the larger braces I have had for years. Now I bought 2 more, after a year the first one is still fine, but it has stretched out a little. This is the first knee brace I have used and never have to adjust it during the day, the old kind that is much longer always slip, no matter how tight you get it when you put them on. If you have bad our weak knees, this brace would be worth you buying one to try it out. I LOVE IT.

The arthritis in my left knee, osteoarthritis type, might well have contributed as to why I do not find this support comfortable at all.I have grade 4 arthritis to my kneecap, having worn away all / most of the cartilage underneath, On the anterior side of the knee there is no cartilage and on the other lots of bony spurs etc lead to a grade 3 /4 diagnosis there - from xray and MRI scans etc.With that in mind I had some hopes from this support as I have also found relief when using an elasticated tubigrip type bandage. I tend to use that when gently using my exercise bike or if my knee feels a little unstable, quite often these days.But when trying this support brace I have found that the hole and ring of padding around the front actually causes me more pain and discomfort than just wearing a tubigrip which is pressed against the whole of the knee. I thought that it would have helped with that by not pressing directly against the kneecap.The straps at the back also cause some discomfort.I have tried different tensions in the straps but without much success.Whilst I can appreciate the other excellent reviews here, and I really did have great hope for this brace for me and my situation, it sadly only increased the discomfort and levels of pain rather just support the knee.Back to the tubigrip as needed, along with the minimal medication to get me by as well as keeping as mobile and exercise as best as possible.I hope that others find relief when using this what otherwise appears to be a well made and strong knee brace.EDIT:Additional update....The seller of this knee brace allowed me to keep the brace rather than return it. So further testing was possible. My review above still stands for me and my condition, I really think that the knee cap issue prevents me from having comfort whilst wearing this support.However my wife has started to use it now has she does have issues with her right knee. As her issues are very different to my own, and much less severe, she suffers none of the comfort issues that I had whilst wearing it.However she has said that she does feel a lot of support whilst she is cycling or doing her step workout. This has meant she rarely gets her typical aches from her knee following her exercises and so for her it has been useful. Perhaps she will continue to use it, she just doesn't like the feeling of the straps or mobility restrictions when exercising.I think that the above findings just agree with my initial findings. Each persons needs and problems are kind of individual when it comes to benefitting from a support bandage or knee brace. What has been apparent to me after buying this knee brace is the good and considerate customer support from the seller.So whilst the knee brace was not suitable for me and my issues at this time I can now appreciate that it can work well for some people and if it doesn't then please contact the seller for help.

Having osteoarthritis in both knees and in particular the right one which is now weak and unreliable makes life pretty difficult at times. I now have knee supports in plenty in my quest to find something suitable. FinBurst knee brace was my last attempt at finding something both comfortable and effective. When it arrived most promptly, I was glad to find my skin doesn't object to it like some in the past which have left me with a rash/reaction. I have yet to wear it for long periods, but so far so good and I might actually have found something that works. It certainly is worth persevering with this brace and the omens so far are positive. Thank you, FinBurst.I wrote the above review about a year ago and now in 2016, I have just received another Knee Brace. I assure you there is good reason for this. Unstable knees never improve and there is a constant fear of the knee joint buckling, but since acquiring the first one, I really have complete faith in it.When wearing it, my confidence is such that I no longer fear falling because the support on either side of my kneecap is exactly where I want it. Secondly, should the day come when my other knee is less reliable, I now have one brace for each knee and finally, if this FinBurst brace should disappear from the market place, and I do hope not, I would be devastated not to be able to get one. So you see, I depend greatly on this product and would recommend it to anyone with arthritic knees. I am sure you will not be disappointed.

This knee brace is great. About 2 months ago I had a bad fall at work due to someone leaving a open box on the floor & I didn't know it was there & as I turned round my foot got caught in it & I went down full weight on my left knee. Doctor signed me off work had to go hospital to have an xray but I hadn't broken nothing jus badly damage my knee bone. I have had to rest it for the last 2 months. Then was looking on here as my son told me to get a knee brace I done a lot of looking before I ordered it & it feels a bit weird when i first put it on as i am not used to wearing anything on my knee when walking but i used to ride my bike to work & have not been on it since the fall so thought i would have a go at riding it with the brace on, i was shocked how easy it was i really thought that there was no way i would be able to ride it. But i was wrong in fact riding the bike with it on was a lot easier than walking with it on lol. But all things aside it is a great knee brace & i am glad i bought it. I will be going back to work in a few weeks & the knee brace is the only reason i can go back to work as my knee is still a bit on the weak side.

Received promptly and now getting used to using the unit. I had already tried a two strap system before but this three strap system is infinitely better ( at least for me).Their e mailed added information is very useful .I was worried as to the issue of fit as I have legs like tree trunks having cycled a lot when younger ( sadly I no longer have the balance or the mobility with a cross bar bike I will see what can be done with the additional brace) .The unit actually fitted perfectly.At 67 ( T2 diabetic for 20 years) I have problems of peripheral neuropathy damage to the leg nerves /muscles making walking difficult. This has just been compounded by arthritis in the knee joints particularly the right knee giving problems of pain and with walking, as the knee now has a weakness making it difficult to get up and down steps. The brace provides excellent support and often reduces the ongoing pain ( it also works well with additional painkillers like paracetamol and or Tramadol). I have been rushing to see the world before the legs finally give up and this additional support will be ideal for when we get to the US National parks in June. The brace works well under clothing and also allows me to resume many elements of gardening which I have had to give up. It may not stop the deterioration but it will extend the use of the legs without having to use sticks and other external supports.

Still getting used to wearing this particular knee brace but it does feel comfortable. This is my third knee brace all by different suppliersI am female 5' 8" and was looking for something not too bulky. Need to wear it when playing golf and when walking any distance - arthritis in the knee that can be painful at times - the brace really helps. This particular one is 12cms less in width than the previous one I had - dosn't sound a lot but it makes it neater to wear and does not feel so cumbersome - just hoping it will be just as effective. Would like to see a nude colour one to wear under light coloured trousers - they all seem to be black - found only one in a light colour and lighter weigh which has two straps - but it is only really suitable for wearing in bed when the knee is bad .Found the follow up email from Finburst once the item was dispatched with tips on how to use helpfull - Only had for a few days but at the minutehappy I decided to try a different brand.
