2.0 out of 5 stars Soft but knees go to side, June 30, 2002

This review is from: Alta G1 Gel Swivel Professional Knee Pad #60200 (Tools & Home Improvement)

The concept of Gel in kneepads is good but something must be done about the design so that my knees do not move to the side. Basically no matter what I do, my knees always end up on the side of the pads because of the hard face. What needs to happen is like the older foam type pads. Your knees must be cushioned but also allow the pad to compress under your weight so that your knees do not rotate to the sides. Basically, you use these with your knees never in the middle unless you keep your weight perfectly centered over your knees (legs have to be together). Obviously, you could not work like this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Max comfort and reasonably priced, November 23, 2001

Being a tile setter I have had different knee pads in the pass. The semi hard plastic on the front will not scratch wood floors like other knee pads do. And the gel make life easy on your knees. The straps do not cut into the backs of your knees like other brands. The one piece design assures you of this. A Great Product for professionals and home owners alike

I am also a tile setter who decided on these higher priced pads. When your in one place and do not move these pads are fine. However when grouting, setting or even doing wet beds these will not do the job. I find myself almost falling over most of the day. I do not suggest these pads for anyone working on a flat surface. Maybe they'll work for gardening?
