BIONIC FULLSTOP Knee Brace - ACL, Meniscus Injuries, Joint and Patella Instabilities, Moterate Sprains

Great knee brace with good support. My son had lateral meniscus surgery and he likes the way it support the knee and keeps it from shifting and rolling during various activities. It’s a little expensive but probably the best non fitted knee brace on the market.

My son tore his ACL years ago and outgrew his previous DonJoy brace. We needed one quickly and ordered this one. It was even better than his customized DonJoy. He said it was comfortable and fit great. He could focus on football and not worry about his knee. As a natural worrier, I had to trust it and it did not disappoint. It’s a bit pricey but he will use it during ski season as well. So we have definitely gotten our moneys worth and it’s so durable, he will have it for years.

This is a serious medical grade knee brace. Extremely supportive and durable.

I bought the Xlarge as I was right between large and Xlarge for sizing. The Xlarge was quite right and I struggled to get it up over my knee. Once on, it felt comfortable and has not punched me anywhere. I appreciate that the back side is a thinner, breathable material and not thick. The straps are easy to peel off unlike my more expensive pre/post surgical DonJoy brace I received from the ED. It hasn't shifted and has stayed in place. Being that it is hot here, my leg has not sweated in it. The sides are a little itchy so I may get a leg sleeve. It is very well made and the stitching and quality is to notch. Doesn't seem flimsy or poorly made. Do I think this brace is worth its cost? No. I feel medical equipment is over priced but that's just me. I am giving it 4 stars because it does NOT stop hypertension. I have Ehlers Danlos and my knees hyperextend to about -35°. The bars and system does not stop my leg from going the wrong way. It has heed though with giving out and side shifting. But it is so not anti hypertension. LOL

The back side of the plastic on the hinge is sharp. First time wearing it yesterday and when going up a ladder my opposite leg rubbed against it and caused an 8” cut!

I read the directions which say, measure you leg., therefore I did (2X for good measure) I’m the exact size my measurements said I would be. Their fitment is clearly correct. My guess people think they wear a size small pant they, wear a small brace. Absolutely not. I wear a S/M pant, I’m 5’3 137lbs and I’m in a size large brace. Just for reference. I definitely noticed the feeling of stability while wearing. Although this will not stop all dislocations, it will get the major ones! I have a completely torn ACL with a meniscus tear and massive bruising of the tibia from an agressive dislocation. I can’t have surgery for 3/4 months and I have a busy schedule. I have used Don Joy in the past for my other knee (ACL reconstruction & meniscectomy) but it was a custom. Honestly I don’t feel a lot of difference in stability between the custom and this one. Obviously fit and finish but this is a quality piece for the price. Fits like a glove. I did adjust it about every hour. But that’s to be expected. I’ll reiterate, just measure your leg properly and don’t guess. You won’t have to worry about a return if you do that.

I really wanted this thing to be all it was cracked up to be. In shorts the Velcro straps cut my other leg, and the lower portion of the brace aggressively stabs into my calf when I’m walking. The brace is made of nice material and very heavy duty. The straps should all end on the left side (for left leg and right side for right) with the Velcro facing outwards, and the lower metal hinge should be heavily padded, not just shoved in a heavy duty sleeve. I really wanted this thing to be better than the McDavis but it’s not. It’s more comfortable if I’m laying down not doing anything, but that’s not why I bought it lol.

Much more stable than the other brands
