Lumex Gaitster Upright Walker, Stand Up Forearm Walker, Padded Seat, Large 9" Wheels

”I Have Idiopathic Periperal Neuropathy. It’s call it Idiopathic, because none of the idiotic doctors, know what’s causing it nor a cure. No feeling in my fingers, hands, wrist, toes, feet and ankles. Little feeling in arms and legs, no balance, without visually seeing what I’m doing. “if I fall extremely difficult getting back up; like impossible” Everything I pick up slips out of my fingers no sensation whatsoever, cannot handle anything small or slippery, watching me eat you will laugh. An absolutely no core strength, my three-year-old grandson has more strength. In other words I’m useless. Other then that, this 81 year old has very good health brain probably working about 75%. Use a roller-walker inside and outside, can’t use a cane because I’m unable to hold it. I believe this will be a huge help for me.

Like the high handles. Helps with posture & not leaning over the walker.But it’s too big and bulky to use in my home. When folded up, it’s too heavy and bulky to lift into my SUV. Wish it was lighter and folded up more compact to be able to travel.

The upright walker is wonderful however, the hand brakes get stuck sometimes

I love this walker. It doesn't strain my back like a normal walker does. The armrests can be raised or lowered to the perfect height for me to stand up straight.

I was looking for something light and easy to put in the car. It is quite big. I haven't had chance to put it in the car but the bottom looks like it will be a bit challenging to get in the car. It is very sturdy.

Thus product is far above the upright walkers I have seen on TV. My husband tried that one and we immediately returned it due to instability. The Lumex accommodates my husband's fused leg which is minimal weight bearing right now. This is a game changer and allows him to get around securely and comfortably.
