Hi all,
I am an Australian Orthotist/Prosthetist.
I am wondering if people could please provide me with their thoughts on the most suitable and durable knee unit for a client who works as a mechanic and therefore does a lot of kneeling on the unit, is light weight (under 70kg = 150 pounds) and is a K3 activity level.
The client is new to me however the only problem with previous knee units is reportedly the rate at which they wear out so something with a decent warranty period that is not void with all the kneeling would be of benefit.
Thank you for your thoughts.
Jackie O'Connor.
