  • Walkin up the stairs was made easier because of the white straps that where added.

  • hey I have the same amputation as u, i just want to find out how much does this leg cost and where and when is it available? thank you so much

  • The leg is about 100,000. I can go up the stairs but it needs some programing work on flat ground. You can buy it through Ossura. I use the Rheo knee.

  • the power knees a prototype, thats why it making this noise as the user goes up stairs, I'm training to be a Prosthetist and have looked into some amazing knees!

  • The noise is normal. It used a long screw to work. Thats why it can lift my weight.

  • Is it always so noisy or is that just when it goes up stairs? I'm an LAK.

  • this is the noise it makes when it walks.

  • Hip-disartic, wow man. I am a double AK and BK with a power knee and have been working on stairs. It's awesome to see others to see what works. Looking great man!

  • For $100.000 you can build your own... only requires some knowlegde in electrical and mechanical engineering, material science and feedback control design ;-)

  • The price will come down eventually, lets say to $50,000. I think alot of people with an amputation would be willing to cut back on the kind of car they drive or house they have to pay $50,000 to regain their knee.

  • $100,000? :( No ordinary person can afforf even one.

  • hello i am double above knee amputee. Is it areliable leg and are u ok with it? please tell me its complete brand and model

  • ok thank you, which one do u think is better and how much is the Rheo knee
