KneeBlades

Perfect for laying floors, very sturdy and easy to use

These knee pads are the best I have ever had. I bought these in 2018 and I’m still rolling on them. I’m a flooring installer I have been on my knees from 1989 to today. Wow! The knee blades are amazing after a long day of work I used to come home and put ice on my sore knees but now I cannot tell when was the last time I had do that. The knee blades work on laminate flooring, Hardwood, Vinyl, Laying tackstrip down,tile, spreading glue, it won’t leave roller marks on the vinyl when you have to roll the vinyl. Not made to roll on carpet or pad. On a glue down carpet you can use them tho. Very durable I don’t strap in them I like the freedom of standing up easily. I don’t recommend strapping in that’s my personal preference. I used to have to buy new knee pads every month and now with these this is all I need amazing.

I think this is the only Milescraft product I own to which I cannot give 5 stars. It certainly deserves 4 plus, maybe 4.7. I'll adress the negative aspect first. As soon as I removed these from the box while at my table the second brace fell off the roller base. No, problem, put it back, held the straps to pick up the pads and try them... Both pads separated and the bases fell to the floor. I read instructions which refer to a button you must push to release these, but all I see is a hole to push against the kee pad - no moveable button at all. Made sure to reinsert per instructions and the pads held until I shook them - fell apart at once. Perhaps my set was a factory defect, but I can't keep these to gether unless I carry them level, and not by the strap. Not a fatal flaw, but a major annoyance for a $70.00 tool. As far as use and function these are incredible. IThey feel like heaven on a cloud after decades on working on bare knees or just hard foam and plastic pads. They do have a short learning curve to use because they roll super fast and as smooth as the surface you are on. You will quickly lear to use your thigh muscles too control and navigate. Took about three minutes to move comfortably and accurately without using hands to pull or push about. Best of all is no trouble keeping both parts together while wearing, so that was a relief. I can stand up pain fee and ready to go for the next job. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND these for every flooring mechanic and anyone else who has to move about on their knees. If these ever get a connection upgrade they will be excellent as all my other milescraft tools have proven to be.

They are awesome! I can clean my floors again. They are good for stretching your legs. I bet I find a lot to do with them. Worth the price. Would buy again

They do roll pretty well. That's the best part. I can see where some reviewers said they cause you to do the splits. You do have to keep tension on your adductor muscles. Most flooring guys wouldn't have a problem with this. If you're a little doughy, well, that could be an issue. They are heavy. If you're on the floor, not a problem, but if you're up and down, it wears on you. And it feels awkward to walk with them on. They flop around and work their way down your leg. You can snap off the wheel part and just wear the kneepads. The kneepads themselves are pretty good. It's hit or miss when snapping them back on. I found that I'd do something wrong in some cases and they would fall off. They are held on by a single strap. Here's what really annoys me. They bunch up and tend to hit you right behind the bend in the knee. I'm attaching a picture of how the strap bunches. Not uncommon for crappy products to have straps that deform and bunch up but for $55, it really shouldn't happen. I think something much wider like webbing or a sleeve would help.

I bought these on a whim. Rather than crawling across the floor on knee pads, these sliders allow you to be very mobile when installing flooring. Things to note: 1. They only work in hard surfaces; not carpet. 2. They come with straps so they can be worn like knee pads. DON’T EVEN TRY IT! I folded the straps over so they are out of the way. I kneel on these then slide across the floor as I work. 3. Also I wear a thin comfortable pair of knee pads when using these. The built in knee pad is a thin memory foam type material that causes my knees to sweat to the point my skin would get raw. The knee pads I wear with the knee blades make them more comfortable. In spite of these draw backs, such as augmenting the knee blades with my own knee pads, they are still worth it. Once you get used to them you’ll find your mobility on the floor is improved and fatigue decreased.

Bought the kneeblades as I have numerous rental properties where I am removing carpet and installing laminate. I first used these on 5/15/18 and one of the gelpads would slip out of the wheelbase everytime I put weight on it. Also, the stitching was starting to tear as mentioned in another review. I contacted Milescraft on 5/16/18 and after providing photos and a short video of the issue a new set was sent under warranty which I received on 5/19/18. Kudos to Jessica in customer service for her assistance. I used the new set on 5/24/18. The pads stay in the base however the buckle that the strap goes through constantly turns sideways as soon as I kneel down. This lengthes the strap which loosens the fit of the kneeblades against my knee. It also puts stress on the stitching of the strap. I do not believe the stitching will last under this stress. In conclusion, I was impressed with the quick customer service response. I am disappointed that I spent $54.00 on a product that I will not be using. When the buckle turns sideways, it twists the strap making it narrower. The strap then digs into the back of your leg making it too uncomfortable to wear. I am surprised that the buckle problem is not mentioned in the other reviews and I am open to suggestions if there is a way to avoid this.

Excelente ayuda para el trabajo

Awesome Product

Die Teile sind Klasse! Keine Knieschmerzen mehr! Mehrere Jahre jetzt schon in Gebrauch.

Love them especially when I have to work on my knees for an extended period of time. Only draw back, you have to work on your split otherwise you'll spread... I have to get a strap to keep them at the same distance apart, small improvement but big impact.
