Is a knee scooter worth it?

Is a knee scooter worth it? A knee scooter is an excellent option for someone who needs a little extra help with mobility, whether due to a foot/ankle injury or post-surgery. It has significant benefits over traditionally used crutches.

How much does it cost for a knee scooter?

We rent leg scooters for $40 per month. Buying a knee scooter can range from $150 to $400. Renting one from a local medical supply store will normally cost you $100 a month plus a $100 deposit fee which means you'll need to fork over $200 upfront to get a knee scooter.

Is knee scooter better than crutches?

Comfort - When it comes to overall comfort and convenience, plus ease of use, the knee scooter definitely wins by far. Knee scooters don't require any upper body strength to get around and are much easier to navigate than crutches.

Can I fold the knee scooter?

Yes, all our knee scooters are foldable. You want to push the handlebar tubing towards where the seat was placed before and it should allow you to completely fold the frame into a compact shape that is easy to store almost anywhere.

Our Story

Knee Scooter USA was started in 2019 in Monument, CO (originally as Knee Scooters for College), after our founder, Rob, broke his ankle while mountain unicycling. Rob was unable to find a knee scooter for several weeks and got frustrated with the pricing of rentals and the inability to rent online and pickup quickly – including nights and weekends. He didn’t want to buy a knee scooter, wait 4-7 days for it to arrive, unpack it while hobbling on one foot, assemble it and then use it for just 4 weeks and attempt to sell it later. He was convinced the knee scooter rental experience could be seamless, convenient and affordable so he set out on a mission to fix it for others.

Our mission is to provide super convenient knee scooter rentals of top quality yet at an affordable price to people with foot and ankle injuries.

Our network of distributors rents well-maintained, sterilized knee scooters out of their homes. This keeps costs low and gives you an affordable knee scooter available to rent online with immediate pickup 365 days a year. Our distributors are mostly retired and they enjoy being able to help people while also generating a dependable, monthly income to supplement their retirement.

We’ve researched and tested every knee scooter on the market and only rent the most comfortable and reliable models that fit the widest varieties of rider heights and weights. Our typical renter needs a knee scooter for 4 or 5 weeks and wants one that will be comfortable, reliable and available on a moment’s notice. A knee scooter will allow you much more freedom to move around as you recover from your injury. We make the pickup/return process easy and our rental rates are affordable which means that’s one less thing for you to worry about during a difficult time. Having been injured myself, I completely understand what you’re going through right now and I hope you’re happy with our service.
