A week or two with redback kneepads

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

I got a £6 kneeling mat from Screwfix and it's great! For chucking around a small bathroom floor anyway, saves wearing pads.
For proper floor jobs though I'm still using my Snickers beaded pads in Blaklader trousers.
The Fento look interesting though...!

Invest mate in some fentos, I used to use beaded inserts for everything, I’ve found my self wearing the fento pads for bathrooms now as well as flooring. You won’t look back I assure you
 
Expensive yes but if they last 2 years ? Even one year. Small price for healthy knees. I’ll never be without a pair now. I haven’t tried Alpro
 
£83 a pop.... Are they worth it..?
How do they compare to the alpro..
IMO the Alpro's are too heavy and bulky and get heavier the more addy that ends up sticking and drying quickly to the front of them due to the material they're made from and then you end up further from the floor. They're like stilts for your knees lol and are hard to clean. They also take weeks to mould to the shape of your knees which can be uncomfortable until you break them in. With they're weight you need the strap to be quite tight which annoys me.
