The freedom leg was well made. Due to my health condition I was unable to use it. The service was amazing.
Even though the 14 days to return the leg had passed they were great about accepting it and refunding our money. I tried for a couple of weeks to use it hoping I would get used to it but I am just too unstable. Thanks guys for being so good to work with. Good product and great service

You can put the Freedom leg on and get around. You don’t have to worry about elbows and knees, giving out when you’re trying to use crutches. I recommend getting used to it like it’s a semi permanent, artificial limb.

I would like it if my toe was somehow secured in a position that it is pointed down because that would ensure that my NWB BOOT is never being stood up upon with even mild pressure. with continued practice I keep the heel back in the toe down. It is truly a game changer.

I received my freedom leg about a week ago after getting a very intensive ankle surgery. I am non weight bearing while i heal and it has allowed me to do things I can't on crutches while still keeping my foot off the ground. I can still carry things and have the use of my hands. It does have a small adjustment period getting used to the mechanics of using it. I am very happy with it now that I am able to get up and walk and not stuck trying to fumble around with crutches. The brace also allowed room for a post op boot.
Also I was surprised when I texted the website helpchat I was almost immediately called by the representative who answered all my questions and concerns. I give the company a great review.
Thank you freedom leg for a great product and great service!

I ordered but couldn't use it do to doctors orders.I have to be immobile non weight barking for 6 weeks.I mailed it back for a refund.

I had an ankle arthrodesis in early November and the first 4 weeks were brutal. I was told 12 weeks of non-weight bearing was minimum. I am very active and immobility doesn’t work well for me. I came across the Freedom Leg and decided to ask my surgeon if I could try it. He told me yes and to let him know so he can refer others. It arrived very quickly. I’m delighted that I decided to get this equipment. It’s easy for me to use. I’m able to go up and down stairs and can carry items in hand. I can also bend down, walk nice distances and resume daily activities without major limitations. If I could change one thing it would be the uncovered velcro pieces that stick to clothing. I ruined a pair of my favorite leggings but it is what it is. Highly recommend!

Works so perfect

I am a 74 year old 6’ tall female. While I am strong and fit, I was initially concerned that I might be “too old” to make use of the Freedom Leg. Fortunately, it works perfectly for me! 4 weeks ago I had a Total Ankle Replacement and I knew in advance that I would be non weight bearing for at least 6 weeks. I purchased my Freedom Leg 3 weeks in advance of the surgery so that I could practice using it. I was very glad that I did because using it is not really intuitive. I quickly became comfortable, but forgot to simulate the added weight of first the surgical splint (10 lbs) for the first 2 weeks and then a hard cast (12 lbs) for an additional 2 weeks. I found that I was most confident at first using both my Freedom Leg and crutches, to give me added stability until I gained the strength and confidence to walk hands free. I also found that wearing yoga pants allowed me to tighten the top strap around my thigh very securely as well as the strap below the knee. The less the brace moves around, the easier it is to pick up as you walk, so having it securely attached is key.
After my surgery I checked in to a rehab facility for a week, thinking that the therapists would have some tips and tricks for me to maximize the use of the Freedom Leg. None of them had ever seen the device and most were highly skeptical of it. I wound up delivering a master class to the PT professionals and the Director of Nursing for the facility. As soon as they understood the physics of it they were enthusiastic converts.
Moral of the story - you aren’t “too old” to use a Freedom Leg” if you are reasonably fit and motivated.

Replacement Freedom Leg base

I had to be completely off my leg for three months, and after the first month, I was going absolutely mad. Being stuck and dependent on others was so frustrating. Then I found the Freedom Leg, and it truly changed everything.
This device gave me back my independence and confidence. I could move around freely, carry things, and actually live my life again — all while staying completely non–weight-bearing. It was amazing to be hands-free again after weeks of relying on crutches and scooters.
I even went to Hawaii during my recovery and was able to do a little hiking! The Freedom Leg made that possible. It’s comfortable, sturdy, and gives you back a sense of normalcy you don’t realize you’ve lost until you can’t walk.
Truly a game changer and worth every penny. I can’t recommend it enough for anyone who has to be non-weight-bearing for an extended period. It makes a difficult recovery so much easier and gives you your life back.

Great leg brace!! Despite having unusually thin thighs, the brace fit well and was very comfortable. It was easy to walk in it and definitely it is an enormous aid to mobility. Very high quality construction as well. Customer service was excellent. We returned the brace for reasons unrelated to the brace itself, and the return process was smooth and easy. FYI many insurances cover this as a medical device - please check with them!

They work amazing, I am able to walk without crutches and can be active and working. They are a live safer and I recommend these for sure.

This is my second jones fracture.And I was so depressed, because I knew I had eight weeks of just sitting, and I am not good at that.The freedom like gave me my freedom.The doctor even okayed me to go back to work on it.Cuz, it is one hundred percent.Non weight bearing and it gave me my life back.It is easy to use and worth its.Weight in gold best handsfree, non white bearing unit ever made.Thank you freedom leg.

So, 2 weeks ago, I fell off my shop roof of 12ft and shattered my right foot. I'm looking at a surgery and 4-6 months recovery. So, I'm not one to sit down as I work a ton on my farm, taking care of animals, running my company all by myself and was looking at a way to still work and walk. Found this and I was hesitant but decided to order. Just got it today and was so excited to put it on. I told the UPS guy that he's delivering my new leg to me! Already a huge game changer! I immediately went outside and started walking around. I have to use 1 crutch still for balance but no strain on my arm at all. It's more of a walking stick. And then I did practice walking around without the crutch as well but that will take some time to learn to balance properly but I can already do so much more than I've been able to do the past 2 weeks. It's not difficult to put on at all. you do have to adjust it to you though which took me about 5-6 times to get it to fit comfortably. But hands down, this is a game changer for sure.

It takes a little practice to get use to it but once you have it down, it's good. I finally got my confirmation that I broke my foot. I'm using my Freedom leg mainly for work, so I can actually go to work. Even though it hurts at the end of the day, now it hurts a lot less when I get home. This is a great idea.

It just didn’t fit the bottom of my leg properly. It seems like a good product. With me having ankle surgery I just needed more stability for it to work for me

Great solution for staying off foot and ankle while being upright.

I had foot surgery two weeks ago that required me to stay off my foot for at least two months. I’m not one to stay at home or be inactive after surgery. I’m also fiercely independent - I don’t have or want a caretaker.

My friend warned me that standard crutches were difficult to use, but I didn’t believe him. He was right! They hurt my armpits, wrists, hands, and shoulder, and I couldn’t do any household chores with them. Even extra padding on the crutches (armpits and hands) wasn’t overly helpful. They still hurt.

I found Freedom Leg 3.0 online, and it was covered by my FSA. Freedom Leg allowed me to do so much more than standard crutches. At home, I could cook, clean, do the laundry, make my bed, water the plants, wash the dishes, carry things, and much more, none of which I was able to do with crutches. Outside the house, I could go to work, eat at restaurants, shop at the grocery store and farmers market, ride crowded trains and buses (sometimes standing room only), attend house parties and garden parties, go to bars, walk though street fairs, and work out at the gym, all with confidence. (I told you I was active!) If I had knee crutches instead and my foot was sticking out behind me, I wouldn’t feel comfortable doing many of those activities. I would probably avoid all crowds. With Freedom Leg, I could easily navigate crowded spaces, which is critical in busy San Francisco.

I remove Freedom Leg in some circumstances, like at work, in restaurants, and at the gym on some machines. It’s quick and easy to put back on.

Going up and down steps with Freedom Leg is much easier than with crutches. I abide by the same rule - up with the good; down with the bad.

Problems with Freedom Leg have been minimal. My first cast was open at the shin, and that wasn’t too comfortable, so my second cast was intentional built to cover my shin. Also, I didn’t like the base pins or the optional base bolts provided. Both stuck out too far on the inside and rubbed up against my cast. I covered the base bolts with duct tape, but that wasn’t a good permanent fix. Also, one of the base bolts came undone. So I went to a hardware store and got bolts with flatter heads and sturdier screws for just a few dollars. That was an easy fix. I did fall once with the Freedom Leg, but that was because I inadvertently stepped into a pothole. I do have to remind myself constantly to fully lift my Freedom Leg with each step so it doesn’t get stuck. I usually bring a cane if I’m venturing out of the house. Lastly, going down the steep hills of San Francisco is challenging. Going up the hills is much easier.

In summary, I’m extremely happy with Freedom Leg 3.0, and I would definitely buy it again if given the choice. Two full months with my foot in a cast would have miserable without Freedom Leg.

Freedom Leg 3.0

This genius device is by far the best mobility option available and it is not even close! I've had every mobility device imaginable and the Freedom Leg is in a category by itself. Literally the first time I ever tried it I was mobile and hands free. Yes, there is a slight learning curve to become really comfortable because this is something new that you are experiencing. But literally my first walk was successful and so freeing emotionally. Hands free and mobile immediately, what a joy when you are immobile otherwise. If you are on the fence about this product please look at as many reviews and videos as you can because you'll really be doing yourself a favor. Yes, it costs a lot but it is worth every penny. You really can't put a price on the freedom this device gives you. Plus, it is usually covered by your insurance. Just message the staff at Freedom Leg to get the medical device number and give that to your insurance and they can look it up to see if it is covered, most likely it will be. This is what I did it was covered 100%. Even if it is not, this will be one of the best investments you'll ever make. Any money you've spent on crutches, scooters or any other walking device is really just wasted money. Once you use the Freedom Leg you will understand completely. And look at it this way, once you throw away all those other useless things, which you will definitely do, you'll be clearing up some room in your house to do things while wearing your Freedom Leg...

Have had it for about 3 weeks now and have been highly impressed. Positioning it while wearing a hard leg cast was a bit tricky at first , but I figured it out it good to go. I believe it will be more comfortable once I get out of the hard cast and into a soft boot. Can’t wait!!!

I used this about a yr or so ago. Then recently, I had to use it again after foot surgery. I was non weight bearing for a few weeks.
This allows me to walk until I'm able to walk normally.
Roger is a godsend and I'm grateful for superior customer support, as well as a sturdy, reliable product.
Thank you very much for your help, I appreciate it!!!!

I bought this leg brace after using the eye walk three which worked pretty good but it tires you out and this brace allows me to walk semi normal with better balance. This is the best thing ever if you have to have a no weight bearing restrictions like I have for eight weeks. I’m very active and being sidelined was never something that I could do and the Freedom Leg has allowed me to continue for the most part with few restrictions. This should be a standard offering after surgery even my orthopedic doctor was impressed and they had never heard about it.

This is not actually what I bought. They didn't have a choice for ordering replacement straps. I called and he sent the part I needed super fast! I have used my freedom leg through two surgeries. My very rough fiberglas casts started wearing one of the lower straps. I got the straps in 4 days over a holiday weekend. Fantastic service!

Arrives fast and replacement is quick and easy!

Wow these guys will call you and take care of any issues you have, give you all the options and you don’t have to ask. Premium experience.
I have not received the freedom brace yet this is a customer service quality not product quality review.
I will write that after I get the brace.
Seriously good folks to deal with.
