I bought one last summer - it cooked everything and i couldnt leave the door open or else the chooks would eat the lot.

Finally chucked it after the wind too it over and my plants with it, bending everything so it never fit back together again!

I've tried two different types of knee pad and found both painful to use. I can't remember why now. I'll have to get them out and try them again to find out why I didn't like them. I think i prefer just a foam kneel mat though sometimes I move on without it. My OH tried the knee pads (in the loft not gardening!) as well and also found them painful.

Kea,
Are any of the knee-pads that were recommended early in this thread the ones that you found painful?

Hi all. My partner a heating engineer and uses knee pads all the time. Any plumb centre or similar will sell them. Even better are the blue trousers with special inserts to slide pads into so they don't fall down! I want some!!!
How fantastic was that mans lottie? Absolutely amazing.

Sorry Thomasb I don't know where I got them from and I haven't used them for a long time so I don't know where i have put them. I will have a look and see if I can find them as they may have a label on them.
I have a problem with one of my knees though and it might have made that worse.
