I have gel and foam filled knee pads, and although they're obviously better regarding freedom of movement around the garden, I can't use them for more than a few minutes before my knees get painful. The basic, high density kneeling mat works better for me. I guess it must be down to where the pressure is applied and how widely the load is spread.
Hi guys, I know this is a bit of an ask, but if you do own a garden kneeler then would you mind taking a photo of it, annotating it with dimensions and sending it on this forum?
Even if only some dimensions, for example the area of he kneeling area/how high from the kneeling area the handles are/the weight of the unit. That would all be great
Do you find that your back/core muscles begin to ache after using a garden kneeler for extended periods of time, like along the red lines in the following photo?:

No neither back, core or feet ache. My last post was taken down because it was considered promotional so won't add links or images this time - I use a kneeler called KneePal which because of the moulded design your legs and feet are better positioned to avoid aches and cramps. To me a kneeler should be about taking the pressure off your knees especially if you have bad knees.

I have one of those kneelers, but don't like it being a few inches from the ground, also it's far too narrow, so never use it.
I have Gel Knee pads, also my favourite is a chunk of foam in a strong plastic bag, think it came from sack with bird food.
