What is a knee scooter?
Knee scooters are the 21st century alternative to crutches.
The knee scooter has a comfortable padded platform to rest your injured leg on and it takes the weight of your plaster. Then, you are able to push yourself around your house and outside your home. It turns easily, you are in control of the speed you move and you have a reliable brake.
The scooter also has a useful basket and on optional cup holder enabling you to carry things around, something which is impossible when on crutches. It can also double as a seat or a rest for your leg if you need to sit down.
