I don’t know why I hesitated to spend on these. I wouldn’t think twice if it was a drill or a tool. Worth every penny. I do hvac and these are perfect.

Yes absolutely! It’s funny how we don’t even hesitate when it comes to tool but things to take care of us, yikes I can’t spend that kind of money. I do the same thing. These things have been everywhere from in front of furnaces, outside with condensers, roof tops, even flooring. Best decision I ever made. You only get one set of knees!

I’ve tried most knee pads and once you get these you won’t wanna go back, I agree with the comment they do move around a bit when you walk in them but they aren’t made for that ,when you go back to normal knee pads if feels your kneeling one the floor worth every penny in my opinion your knees are priceless

Thank you so much for this review. After 3 days of laying vinyl plank with a couple different pairs of knee pads from Home Despot, my knees have serious rug-burn-like abrasions from poor padding and from my broad-weave 6-pocket pants bunching up (folding?) between the pads and my knee.

Hey great video, I’m a landscaper/hardscaper so at times for example building a long retaining wall I’m on my knees but constantly turning to grab more stone next to me or behind me. But the next day I could me laying flagstone then kneeling to level them but getting up to grab more stone then kneeling etc. Do you think these would be a good choice for me or do you think the ap16’s? My knees are starting to bother me after 15 years of crap knee pads. Also I do walk quite a bit on the job wheeling my material back and forth and I’m not sure if these would be an issue after a while. I appreciate your work
