Increased user weight capacity to suit user requirements.

Using a knee scooter, also known as a knee walker, can offer several benefits, especially if you're recovering from foot or ankle surgery, or if you have a lower leg injury that requires non-weight bearing for healing.

Here are some of the Benifits of using a knee scooter:

Mobility: 
A knee scooter allows you to be more mobile than crutches would. You can scoot around quickly and with less effort.

Stability and Balance: 
It provides a stable platform, reducing the risk of falling compared to using crutches. This stability is especially beneficial when navigating through crowded or uneven surfaces.

Comfort: 
Knee scooters are generally more comfortable than crutches because they don't put pressure under your armpits or require the upper body strength that crutches do.

Freedom for Upper Limbs: 
Your hands are free when you are not moving, allowing you to perform daily tasks more easily than when using crutches.

Energy Conservation: 
Using a knee scooter typically requires less energy than using crutches, which means you can move around longer without getting as tired.

Speed: 
You can move faster on a knee scooter than you can with crutches.

Non-Weight Bearing: 
It provides a non-weight bearing solution that allows injuries or surgeries on the foot or ankle to heal.

Storage Capability: 
Many knee scooters come with baskets or storage compartments, making it easier to carry personal items around with you.

Adjustability: 
They often come with adjustable height settings for the knee pad and handlebars, allowing for a comfortable fit for different user heights.

Easier Transition:
For some injuries, a knee scooter can make the transition to walking again smoother, as you can gradually put more weight on the injured leg.

Outdoor Use: 
Knee scooters are typically more durable for outdoor use than crutches, allowing users to navigate over various terrains andlong distances.

While knee scooters offer many benefits, it's important to note that they are not suitable for all types of injuries or for all stages of recovery. They can also be challenging to use on stairs or in tight spaces. It's always best to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the most appropriate mobility device for your specific needs.
