KneeRover GO Hybrid - Most Compact Knee Scooter Knee Walker with All Terrain Front Wheels for Foot, Lower Leg or Ankle Injury

After many hours studying the various knee scooters on the market I decided to purchase this scooter after breaking my ankle a few weeks ago. Meet my 'Green Goddess!' lol It's not cheap but I needed something that folds down super easily and small for travel so we can take in the car in 5 weeks time to France for a our holiday. 3 adults, 1 dog and a car load of stuff! Using crutches continuously is simply not sustainable especially when I would like to be able to freely go further with my family, pop to the local shop, do more things in the house and simply give me back a small amount of independence which is one of the toughest things to ensure when you are non weight bearing for weeks on end. It's light weight, has a good break and turn. wheels are quite sturdy - 2 large at front and 2 smaller at back. I bought a good bike basket off Amazon as the company itself is rubbish and does not offer any accessories in the UK and sadly only model that doesnt come with anything extra (@Knee Rover - do better please!) It takes a little practice, i find it quite hard on my knee/leg as I have a long injury boot plus my has triggered my sciatic nerve slightly but it is well made and has a good gel padding compared to other models I've read about. I'm 5'4, size 10 and fits well to my height/weight. Good luck everyone who like me didnt even know these existed until I broke my ankle! lol

Wish I'd bought this from week 1 of my injury. Made getting around so much easier. Took it on holiday, and made getting around so much easier. Glides around in inside spaces with ease eg shopping centers, airport, hospital. Works well outdoors too. I took it to the beach, the park, the school run, supermarket ect. If also use it as a leg rest or a seat whilst out. Folds away with ease and I was able to lift it up whilst balancing on one leg. There's a velcro strap at the front, I used it to attach my crutches so if I needed to go up or down stairs, my husband would carry the scooter and I'd uses the crutches or I'd ask someone for help .this was perfect as I was able to get around to almost everywhere

Una Maravillosa compra. Me saco de muchos problemas

Purchased after rupturing achilles tendon and having this scooter helped to make the best of the situation!!!

I've only just put this scooter together today, but, so far, so good. A week ago, I sustained a fracture on my left toe. A few days after that, I fell and broke my right ankle walking around on an unsteady and painful left foot injury. Walking with crutches was painful and stressful with injuries on both legs. I read the reviews and decided to go with this model of KneeRover because I need reliability, stability and flexibility. This model was slightly expensive on my teacher salary (knee scooters are not covered by my insurance), but I was able to use an amazon coupon and my Discover rewards to bring the price down a bit. It didn't come with a basket, but I ordered one. When I'm at school, I'll need something to hold my stuff. The knee cushion is well padded, but I ordered an add-on cushion since I'm upright at work all day. I saw a couple of people using knee scooters at the ortho's office yesterday, and they both had extra cushioning. Putting it together was simple and fast. I didn't bother with the paper instructions because I'm super sore and in pain from a visit to the orthopedic office yesterday. My patience was thin. Instead, I watched the Knee Rover assembly video on Youtube, and had everything put together in minutes. Easy. No additional tools needed. It was superbly packaged. It took me longer to get the scooter out of the box and unwrap all of the cushioning than it took to put it together. Finally, I live in a very small house without a lot of room, and I've been able to get around well so far.

Super für ältere, oder besonders schwere oder sehr schwache Menschen, die einen Fuß nicht belasten dürfen. Zum Beispiel nach einer OP und wo die Menschen aber nicht mit Krücken/ Unterarmgehstützen gehen können. Können wir nur empfehlen. Der Roller war schon zweimal genau dafür im Einsatz und ist ein wahrer Segen. Auch gut anwendbar für Leute in kleiner Wohnung. Passt überall durch.

I do not write reviews unless I am really impressed. I am an ER physician who managed to fall off a ladder and fracture my heel. I was very limited in my ability to use crutches and even had a fall using them on my first day following my injury. I went to a medical supply place locally and purchased a floor model Roscoe. I don’t recommend using a medical supply shop as they are notorious for overcharging. The model I got was very good. It was very sturdy and was rated for 350 pounds. But Roscoe doesn’t offer a locking brake and the turning radius made maneuvering in the house awkward as I frequently had to either backup and turn or lift the front end and reposition to make turns even around an island in the kitchen. The PVC wheels were sturdy, but made going over door thresholds painful as every bump and crevice was transferred to my painful foot. My second purchase was an Elenker as it had 2 hand brakes that were advertised to lock. My assumption was that all four wheels would brake —they don’t. Only the rear wheels would brake and the mechanism of a metal bar clamping down on the wheel is far inferior to a drum brake that Roscoe had or this KneeRover Hybrid. Furthermore the locking mechanism was simply garbage and although the brakes would lock, the bar didn’t touch the wheel and it simply didn’t work. Very disappointed with Elenker, the only aspect that had any redeeming quality was the turning radius permitted me to make that turn around the kitchen island. Assembly of the Elenker was a little challenging with my injury and revealed far inferior construction compared to the Roscoe and to the KneeRover Hybrid. On my third attempt to get a knee scooter I paid the extra money for the KneeRover Hybrid. There is another Knee Rover that costs less that is identical in all respects except with all four PVC wheels instead of the front pneumatic wheels. The pneumatic wheels made a remarkable difference in absorbing those cracks and door thresholds. At first I was concerned because there seemed to be too much play in the scooter moving from side to side. After inspecting the tires I realized the tires were under inflated. Adding air to those tires solidified the scooter and the side rocking was gone. This scooter is STURDY. It is well made. The turning radius was perfect without making the unit at risk for tipping with turns. The brakes are a dream. They work and lock perfectly. I was so impressed I purchased a second unit to keep in my car so I can bolt out the door to go to work without delaying for collapsing the scooter for transport. This is the one to get. It is mostly assembled and well packed. The only thing lacking so far is the front basket, but this can be purchased separately as well as a perfectly matching memory foam topper for the knee saddle. Get this one. You won’t be disappointed.
