Product Description

The UPWalker is a revolutionary new mobility product that enables users to walk upright in a safer, more secure posture as compared to traditional walkers and rollators that cause users to hunch over.  

The UPWalker improves mobility and increases independence for the elderly and mobility challenged, including users with neurological, orthopedic, cardiovascular and other health disorders. According to clinical research, the unique design of the UPWalker reduces pain in the wrists, back and leg joints as compared to traditional walkers, and the upright position enables the user to walk farther with less effort.

Because you are able to walk using upright posture, you are able to look straight at your friends and loved ones without being hunched over looking at the ground.  You can even rest on the armrests in a standing position while having a conversation with others.

The UPWalker was designed with user convenience in mind and arrives fully assembled with an easy-to-follow User Guide. After making a few initial set-up adjustments designed to personalize the UPWalker to your user preferences, using the UPWalker requires no more than a few steps to open and close and to use for walking or sitting. All tabs used for making adjustments are clearly defined in gray color.

The UPWalker is larger and heavier than traditional rollators and may not be suitable for smaller, frail elderly users or others lacking the strength to maneuver a larger mobility device.

No, the UPWalker comes fully assembled with an easy-to-follow User Guide. It can be removed from the box, adjusted to your personal desire and used immediately.

A research study found that users of the UPWalker felt safer and more secure than they did with a walker or rollator.
