So far so good, May 1, 2010
By Kung Fu Vicki(Redondo Beach, CA)
It's about a month so far using the braces (I have one for each knee - have had ACL surgery on both). Easy to use and adjust. Best of all easy to clean. The only complaint I have is that I have very thick thighs and calves so I had to order a size 5. But my knee is a smaller circumference than my calf and thigh so there's a bit of space in the knee part. I'm hoping that is okay. My legs may be a different than most. As I said so far so good.
