KneeRover Quad All Terrain Knee Scooter Knee Walker for Foot, Lower Leg or Ankle Injury in Metallic Blue

A little difficult to build, so definitely buy it prior to surgery or ask someone to help put it together.However, worth every penny spent.The knee scooter has increased my mobility and makes getting from point a to b so seamless.

Not impressed bearing in mind the cost of this piece of mobility equipment.Whilst it appears to be ok on a reasonably flat rough footpath if a unlevel section of path is experienced it has a tendency to throw you off sideways. Avoid as it’s not worth the cost.

Update 4 week review : im quite happy with this little guy still. The only beef so far after 4 weeks of use is the brake leaver locking mechanism. It doesn’t hold in place or does’t release easily anymore. You have to push it from underneath with your thumb. Minor issue if you consider how the mobility this thing gave me….Original review : Wow, had this for 3 days now and its an absolute game changer. I tried typical crutches, but im 300 lbs and they hurt and restrict movement so much. Plus with painkillers and relaxers and risked falling all the time. Going to bathroom was a real challenge. I tried forearm crutches and it was and improvement while waiting for this thing. My first reaction when it arrive was that it was heavy. Assembling it was a breeze without instructions. It is well build, solid and very sturdy. My 4 tires hold pressure no problems. It makes moving about sooo much safer. Brakes work really well and the leg rest is real comfortable… dont waste your money on the memory foam add-on, its stiff and makes it dangerous as it sits way too high. The rover fits in real tight places. So far i havent noticed any tire marks or anything and i dont wale everyone out in the middle of the night when i get up now. I installed a ram coffee holder on it and an olight flashing for night time around the house. I tried it outside too. Amazingly smooth on pavement, concrere and gravel. It works well on wet grass too. Just watch for ruts and holes as they will tend to throw the balance off a bit. So far extremely satisfyCons : on the next itteration, the rear axle should have an open differential concept so both wells can spin independently. This will allow for much tighter turns too. You’ll just need to double up the braking system for each wheel.

I like my All-Terrain KneeRover, it’s perfect for rolling over hard floors, carpet, and small bumps with ease. But where it really shines (compared to other models) is outdoors. I’ve taken this thing everywhere one might reasonably attempt to go, including through loose driveway stones with relative ease and stability. The large(r) diameter pneumatic tires help immensely in that regard. Other models with hard/small tires are prone to catching on cracks, pebbles, and even the small transition strips between carpeting and hard flooring.NOTE: if you are physically weak, unstable, have balance issues and/or have difficulty backing a car in close quarters, then, a KneeRover may not be for you. This thing doesn’t turn very short, so it helps immensely to plan ahead when you enter a room, and have your route planned out in advance.Note: This note is more of a comment than a complaint. The KneeRovers turning radius is necessarily large so that stability is maintained - otherwise people would be turning too short (at speed) and falling off. If your balance and physical condition permits it, you can lift the front wheels while standing on your “good” foot/leg and “pirouette“ on the rear wheel(s) to shorten your turning radius, thereby reducing the number of back and forth steps required to turn around in tight spaces (like a bathroom).While the positive benefits of the KneeRover far outweighs the negatives, there are a few things that could be better:* Wobbly steering column connection. As long as you assemble it properly the steering column and retaining bolt will stay secure... but it’s - loose fit and it wobbles.* The brake seems to require excessive force to get it into parking brake mode, and even then it doesn’t seem to stay engaged.* Max air pressure on the tires is 40psi, which is still a bit soft for my 270 lbs. because they feel just a little more squishy than I’d like.I initially bought my All-Terrain KneeRover “Used-Like-New, with all original packaging” from Amazon (see first photo).What I received (from Amazon) was a compact/portable model (meaning foldable) KneeRover GO with small, hard wheels (see photo two).The markings on the box indicated that it was an All-Terrain model, but that’s not what was jammed inside. And Amazon’s claim that it included “all original packing” was literally a joke (see third photo). The original purchaser obviously purchased two (2) different KneeRover models, then pulled a switcheroo by returning the less expensive model KneeRover inside the more expensive box! And Amazon never verified the contents when they accepted the return; rather they merely re-sold it as the ($100 more expensive) All-Terrain model.OK, I get it, mistakes happen. But what REALLY steamed my clams is Amazon flat-out refused to make it right by shipping me another All-Terrain KneeRover, until I had returned (and they had physically received) the KneeRover GO that had erroneously sent me.That was unacceptable since I had already spent 5 days waiting to receive my KneeRover from Amazon the first time. Not only did Amazon refuse to ship another (hopefully the correct model) KneeRover until they had the first one back in their hands, they said that it would take an additional 5-7 business days from when they received my return before I could expect a replacement.At this point I elected to switch from an Amazon Exchange to a Return/Refund, and called KneeRover directly.Trey at KneeRover was exceptionally helpful, even discounting my purchase by graciously applying a sale coupon to my All-Terrain KneeRover and even provided free shipping. I had my brand-new KneeRover directly from KneeRover in LESS time than Amazon would have taken to correct their mistake... and at a price that was within $5 of Amazon’s “Used-Like-New” price.CONCLUSION: While I am thoroughly disgusted with the refusal by Amazon to make good on their mistake, I am grateful to have found KneeRover because the walker that the hospital sold me (so I could get around with my shattered ankle) was killing my shoulders since I had to lift my entire weight for EVERY step. Like anything else there are aspects that are the result of compromises between functionality and safety, but KneeRover has done an excellent job of providing an outstanding product that fills a niche.HOORAY for KneeRover! Amazon, not so much.

I needed a knee walker due to a foot injury. I didn’t want one and thought I could manage with crutches. Boy was I wrong. I did some research to find something that would be sturdy and provide sufficient traction so it would not to slow me down in my daily outdoor activities. This walker did not disappoint! It goes practically anywhere. It is so much better than crutches. I can’t believe I fought getting one. I kept this for outside and the crutches for inside. I was hesitant on the colour but after seeing it, it’s great. Who knew I’d get so many complements on my new ride! I’d actually give it 4.5 stars, if possible, as the drum brake is a little jerky when going down a grade. However, I’ve only had it less than a week so it may smooth out. This is the mountain bike of knee walkers. I would also recommend the basket, it can be quite difficult to steer with one hand when holding something in the other. As guy you say no way but it’s so practical when needed (holds a six pack 😁 in a small cooler) and it’s removable. This walker has allowed me to continue doing what I enjoy as I recover from this injury. Thank-you Knee Rover!

So I had Achilles tendon reattachment and repair surgery done. This means zero weight bearing for some time. Crutches were too temping for me to put weight on the foot and a knee scooter is highly recommended regardless. Decided to spend the extra money (HSA dollars) and get this one. Some specs on me... I'm 5'9" (1.75M) and 195-205lbs (91kg). I'm also generally good with balance as well and overall decent health. I thought for what it was it was strong and well built. I didn't need any extra padding for my knee. I was able to take it out in my yard comfortably. You aren't going to do any bike flips with it but was able to go over my bits of bumpy grass without too much issue. I do think the air filled tires were key to keeping the "rough" bumps at bay. Wife was able to fold it up and lift it into a Rav4 trunk and use the mechanism to collapse it without to much issue. My daughter thinks it is a toy for her to play with (10 year old). Is it "unstable"? I don't think so. I have a slightly tilted driveway and if I came down it too fast and tried a full turn oh ya you would flip, but I assume you don't do that. For those with qualities issues, I had none of those. The wheels were straight upon assembly. Wheels didn't leak air, never had to add more air during my month solid usage indoors and out. The issue with the nuts on the wheels is semi legit. I think the rounded tips on the one I got reduced any major issues but I was aware of them at all times and a few times it would have been nice if those bolts were recessed. Turning radius is large, but it's that or be even more prone to tipping. These things aren't a car with a wide base. Its designed to help you be mobile. One trick around the large radius for me was to hold the break which brakes the back wheel then "wheelie up and rotate" when I needed to. Use that tip at your own comfort level or not at all. I also only used it on a single floor for the most part other than when I got it outside. I used crutches for the floor I wasn't going to be on very much. I did think just buying a super cheap one but crutches worked good enough for those few times I had to go to my second floor. In the end now that I'm finally cleared for weight bearing walking (in boot) again I no longer need it would be the right time to review. I would 100% recommend this if anybody has this type of surgery and are understanding that it's not a wide wheel based "stable" device. I never tipped, I never felt unsafe, brakes worked great and if you know how to adjust wire brakes (motorcyclist and cyclist here) you can tune them in perfect. The seller also took HSA for this which is great and the shipped product came on time and there were no damages upon arrival to the shipping box. Assembly was easy for me and intuitive enough. Thank you Kneerover for making a product made my life a lot easier than it could have been during my recovery.

I absolutely LOVE my knee stroller, it has given me the freedom I desperatly needed to be able to move without pain or further injuring my foot fracture. It is sturdy, comfortable, and adjustable to exactly my height, and its super cute. I purchased a basket so that I can carry my handbag, water bottle and anything else I need to move around with me, leaving my hands free.I took it down a gravel pathway to the beach, its perfect for zipping around the office and has made home life a dream. My only regret is not ordering it sooner. Customer service from Knee Rover were a pleasure to work with aswell - I had a lot of silly questions, and they were fast to respond. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
