U have owned my UPWalker since before the pandemic. It's a great investment. In order to maintain my physical fitness, I walk at least 10,000 steps every other day. My back won't tolerate a normal rollator. The only problem is that LifeWalker Mobility became Journey, the mail and phone numbers have changed. This is difficult for a Septuagenarian.
- LOLinda O.ReviewingUPWalker® OriginalI recommend this productProduct Standouts Easy to Maneuver, Lightweight, Comfortable, Easy to Travel WithRated 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 1, 2024Buying my 2nd one
I have been using the upwalker since they 1st came out. I love it. I bought a cheaper one another brand to keep in my car. But I had a bad fall with it. So I am now buying a 2nd upwalker to keep in my car. It is more supportive not as films as brand #2. I would really give this a 10. I have people stop me where ever to ask about it. I was probably one of the 1st in Utah to buy the upwalker. Thank you for giving us seniors something that really works.

I have been using the UPWalker Lit for about 2 years. I have scoliosis in my upper and lower back. My caregiver checked my upper back and said the scoliosis in my upper back was gone.
I credit the UPWalker for straightening it. You stand straight. It is very light to put in the car.
