Review: What a difference! I could immediately walk without assistance, WOW - I have a High Grade II torn MCL with 80% or so and grade I ACL tear. I was in a wheel chair or walker all week until this came in. I literally could walk with almost a normal gate with this immediately. AMAZING! I have had this injury even worse many years ago and I've used full leg immobilizers, crutches, I have a neoprene sleeves, wraps, and a knee brace with metal stays to stop twisting or lateral motion, THIS PRODUCT hands down beats them all. This was worth every penny and more. The product: Tt's hella light, padded on every strap, the straps (thick and relatively soft for being sturdy and very adjustable), the hinge is robust and geared and has range of motion stops that are simple to install with the provided hardware. It keeps your knee open to breath or wrap for patella stabilization, and the hinge adjust angle for medial vs lateral pressure and to adjust pressure placement on the knee. Also the strap pads are rubberized to prevent slipping and it really helps reduce load on the knee OMG what a relief! It really makes a huge difference and has already (in a matter of days) lead to gains in recovery just by knowing I'm protected I've pushed harder and used increased range of motion. BUY IT NOW, so cheap for someone with a knee injury it's a no brainer NOTE about 4 stars: I rated it 4 stars in Pain and Comfort, BUT realize it can only do so much as I have a serious injury there will still be some occasional pain (nothing outside of drugs can change that....hard pass). For comfort; it's as comfortable as a robust brace can be...it can't offer the relief without being tight and restrictive to a degree. I've worn many braces and honestly this thing is fantastic...just wanted to offer some insight into my ratings
Review: A real brace that helped - I will be more than happy to submit a honest review of the brace as without it, I could not walk. When my son gave the brace to me, it was for the short term as I was scheduled for a knee replacement 6 months from when I received the brace. In the meantime, I tore the total rotator cuff of my left shoulder so the surgeon decided I had to have a reverse shoulder replacement before the knee replacement, so I had two arms after the knee surgery. That pushed the knee surgery back 6 months while my new shoulder healed. Before my shoulder surgery, I discovered I had rectal cancer. Another push back. I needed months of radiation and possible rectal surgery. Lucky the radiation got rid of the cancer so now I am moving forward with the shoulder surgery in February. Four to six months after the shoulder replacement, I will finally have the knee replacement surgery. Doing this entire episode my Orthomen OA Unloader Knee Brace has allowed me to stay mobile. With the brace, I have no knee pain from the bone-on-bone status of my knee. I am a very active 82-year-old so moving around is a must. With the brace, I have that freedom. Without it, I must use a roller and only for short walks. Believe me, this review is from the heart. Your product is a God sent. Thank you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked well; broke after three and one half years; still worth it
*by S***H on June 19, 2025*

The brace broke after about 3 1/2 years. It broke under normal use conditions; though it did get some hard use over time I had it. I did not wear it day to day, I only used it for hiking, skiing, pickleball and other high impact outdoor activities. I thought the brace worked fine. It did provide support and pain relief for medial osteo-arthritis until it broke. For the money, I think it was worth it for my 3 1/2 years of use. On minor complaint - the buckle system worked fine, but wasn't great. The clips were too hard to clip when it was adjusted tight enough for use (since it tended to loosen a little after being on for a short while). I almost always just had to use the velcro to fine tune so the clips weren't really a benefit. It didn't really affect performance; just a slight nuisance putting on and off.
