This particular knee scooter allowed Dr. Holtzman to work! Other scooters didn't have YOUR 90 degree turning radius .. it was a game changer! It allowed him to operate! Without it .. he would have been out of work for 6 weeks! "

Covid 19 Pandemic
- Due to the Covid Pandemic the photo contest was suspended - Capturing the spirt of the season - Our 2019 Fall Photo Contest Winner
"The photo was taken in Spirit Lake, Iowa, right on the lake. With my knee scooter, I was able to enjoy time outside making a snowman with family. The picture shows me putting the final touch of a carrot nose on our snowman!
My injury was a ruptured tendon in my right foot. My knee walker allowed me to work and play during the holidays--never missing a beat! I'm a teacher and my knee scooter enabled me to still be present in the classroom. Further, for the holidays, I was able to fly up to Iowa to see family and participate in all our family traditions! Thank you Rent-A-Knee-Walker! "
Megan from Dallas, TX- Megan’s picture warmed our frosty hearts with her great picture building a snowman while using her Orthomate Knee Walker.

Michael from Pensacola , FL!
"Holding up the entire weight of Spaceship Earth (Epcot) with the help of my Knee Scooter!
I took my girlfriend to Epcot for her birthday. I thought we would have to cancel our plans when I injured my ankle a couple of weeks before. My knee walker allowed me to spend all day on my feet (well, my foot) instead of having to use crutches for 12 hours. My girlfriend logged 40,000+ steps on her Fitbit right next to me! "
Michael from Pensacola , FL - There is never a better feeling we get than when customers show us how /knee-scooter-rentals made a positive impact on their recovery. This photo is the pinnacle of the freedom a knee scooter allows. There is just something so magical about it, Maybe it has something to do with being at the happiest place on earth Disney! That spaceship sure looks heavy and even if he didn’t really hold the ball up in the air it sure made for one cool photo. We are so proud to have been a part of Michaels wonderful day and we wish him a happy, healthy and speedy recovery!
Michael rented the Orthomate All Terrain Knee Scooter, and added the Comfy Cushion Knee Pad Cover and Drink Cup Holder to made visiting even easier. (as shown) Summer 2018 Winner

Anissa from Haines City, FL!
"Was not supposed to place any weight on it on my ankle and I refused to walk down the aisle on crutches. Surprised by an injury just before a planned wedding date that could not be changed. My knee walker helped saved the day. I call it 'The Bride's Ride'. "
Anissa from Haines City, FL - We get all mushy when customers let us know our knee walkers made a special occasions possible. The fact that she was able to still "walk" down the aisle and the basket even worked well as a bouquet holder! We are proud to have been part of their special day and we wish you joy, love and happiness as you begin your new life together!

Susy from Burbank , CA!
"At my job as a veterinary surgeon at a humane society. Helped me get out and about and reclaim my life ."
Susy - We loved how Susy utilized the Swivelmate as another tool to get the job done! She is a Veterinary Surgeon at a Humane Society so lots of animals depend on her so she had to stay mobile and be able to perform lifesaving surgeries. Upon hearing she was the winner, Susy chose to graciously donate the prize winnings toward a knee walker rental for someone who couldn’t afford it otherwise. We are proud to have provided a knee walker for such a kind hearted person!

Irma from Brooklyn, NY!
"It help my boy enjoy the summer much better than if he didnt have, he was able to go to the movies, the park, the mall, play days and most importantly the POOL which is his favorite summer fun day."
Irma - Irma from Brooklyn sent in an emotional testimonial about her Grandson's experience. We love these kind of stories! Normally a broken foot would ruin a kid’s summer, but not with a knee walker and a DryPro cast cover. He was able to still do all his favorite summer activities. Thanks for sharing Irma!

Winner was....
David from Greenwich, CT!
"The scooter is so much easier and better balanced than crutches, and much more comfortable. With a non-weight bearing broken ankle, I am able to participate in activities and be so much more independent than when using crutches. Love this Swivelmate; back up and moving so much faster."
David - Wow, this sunset is a show stopper! David was in Cape Cod, MA on vacation when he snapped this shot. The Swivelmate is ideal to take on vacation with you during recovery as they fold easily and are slim in design. With a knee walker you don’t have so sit in the hotel room, so get out there and explore!

Rick in Roswell, GA!
"The Martha Stewart Bulloch chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution held a ceremony at the 'Faces of War' monument located on the Roswell, GA City Hall grounds which was the 43rd anniversary of the end of fighting in the Vietnam War. It was a ceremony to honor the Vietnam Veterans and give them the welcome home that they never received at that time.
As President of the Piedmont Chapter Sons of the American Revolution, I attended that ceremony in uniform and functioned as Color Guard Commander with members of our color guard to present the colors (US and GA state flags) to open the event to open the event.
The knee walker has been a lifesaver for me. I have been non-weight bearing on my left leg since I broke my ankle. The knee walker has allowed me to not only get around in my house, but also to participate in events and meetings that I would not otherwise have been able to attend. The 90 degree turning radius is a great, and makes the knee walker very maneuverable."
Rick - Just another great example of how using a knee walker keeps you active and involved in all aspects of your daily life. We thought the composition and subject matter were great and really enjoyed Rick's story. We were thrilled to hear how his Swivelmate knee walker allowed him to not skip a beat in his duties as the President of the Piedmont Chapter, Sons of the American Revolution. Congrats Rick!
