Who We Are The Kneebilizer Story: Background: My husband of 18 years, John, has been a quadriplegic since 1988. Being 6' 5" tall and in a wheelchair, it can be difficult to find things that fit him well, and his wheelchair is no exception. The Problem: While most wheelchairs may be adjustable, they never really "fit like a glove". The standard lap belt was functional, but I thought that he would be more comfortable and stable if his knees were secured instead of his waist. Enjoying the freedom of the Kneebilizer! The Kneebilizer, is the future in wheelchair safety devices. The Kneebilizer is an advanced system which secures you comfortably to your wheelchair at and around your knees rather than traditional seat belt around your waist. The Kneebilizer offers advantages in the areas of security, comfort, style, and provides you proper posture. Not only do you look & feel better, the Kneebilizer allows you to move around with confidence and take back more of your independence! The Solution: I started experimenting with different designs and, working with Eric Fasser, we quickly came up with a functional prototype. This "Knee Stabilizer" had really improved John's life, and hence the name "Kneebilizer" was born. My goal was to develop an American-made product that offered superior comfort, security, style and provides proper posture. Proudly made in the USA.
