Knee walkers also called knee scooters are a convenient alternative to crutches. These come in handy when you are recovering from ankle, or foot injury. Using a knee walker instead of crutches means that you will not have to go through the uncomfortable hassle. Plus, knee walkers will allow you to get around quickly both indoors and outdoors. Which means that you will not have to limit your normal day to day activity.

With that in mind, we are going to look at two different knee walkers. The All Terrain KneeRover Pro Steerable Knee and the All Terrain KneeRover Steerable Knee Walker/Scooter. Both of these knee walkers are a great alternative to crutches. They were also designed to be used on many different types of surfaces. But while they have some similarities they differ greatly from each other.

All Terrain Knee Rover Steerable Knee Walker

The All Terrain KneeRover  has set the standard by providing a safe and effective knee walker. It is designed to handle any type of terrain that you may encounter. This is made possible by the three large 12-inch pneumatic tires that make it easy to go over indoor and outdoor surfaces.

The All Terrain Knee Rover  is both left and right leg compatible. This steerable knee walker offers maximum stability and control while maneuvering around your home, or workplace. Having such complete control over the steering is made possible by the advanced automotive style tie-rod steering mechanism, that has an adjustable locking handbrake. This type of technology is not available in other brands of knee walkers.

The handle bars and the knee platform are completely adjustable. This makes it easy to fold the all terrain up and transport it in your car or store it away when your done using it.  The heavy duty double bar construction provides strength and stability to the walker.
