''The first time I tested Recoil out over an 8 hour day shift, this is where I was blown away! my knees (not the best condition) didn’t feel like they usually do, aching and stiff, they felt absolutely fine, I just wish I had these years ago.''

''They’re an absolute God send! They’re the best on the market in my opinion. We’ve now finished for the day/week and it doesn’t even feel like I’ve been on my knees at all, no redness, no soreness, no aches or pains when getting up off them.''
