I has a pegleg

Today I received my iWalk 2.0 knee crutch all the way from the US. I waited for my other half to get home to assemble it because it works best with two.


So it sat taunting me until he had time to deal to it. Assembly was really straightforward. We didn't need the online videos but I had watched them previously. They were useful in advising about setting the height once you had conquered beginner mode.

Once it was all put together it was an awesome beast. It takes a bit of faith to trust it. The instruction manual had a few exercises to run through that helped to build confidence. Side bends and stretches - the physio has started already!



It's not a subtle device, that's for certain but if it gets me up and moving independently and let's me carry a cup of tea to my bed or the sofa then I'm sold.

What amazed me is the ease of using it.

Here is a demo!


Then within minutes it's adjusted to a higher and more comfortable height and we're off!
