The U-Step Walker was created to increase your independence. The secret is in our patented U-shaped base. Its ultra-stable foundation braces you in every direction.

It is not like pushing a typical walker. Instead, the U-Step surrounds you and moves with you. You will feel as stable as you would feel holding onto another person’s arm.

The innovative braking system is easy to use and puts you in complete control. The U-Step will not roll unless you are ready to walk. When you lightly squeeze either hand brake, the unit will roll with you. Once you release the hand brake, the unit will stop immediately. This feature is particularly helpful when standing up from a chair because the unit will not roll away from you.

Physician and Patient Testimonials

"Effective aid for mobility and balance for Parkinson patients, and has often been preferred over other rolling walkers."
Peter LeWitt, MD; Professor of Neurology, Wayne State University; Neurologist, Clinical Neuroscience Center, Bloomfield, MI

"More stable and safer than standard walker models. The U-Step is ideal for patients with multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, cerebral ataxia, muscular dystrophy, ALS, stroke and head trauma."
Pat Casey, MS, OTR/R; Department of Neurology, Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation, Chicago, IL

"Great! Anyone with walking difficulties should have one. I use the U-Step to get my husband turned around, to sit down and to get in and out of bed. Doctors and nurses have been impressed with it. My husband demonstrated it at a Parkinson's group meeting. We are very thankful for this walker. My husband wouldn't be able to walk without it."
K. Aumann

"The U-Step is a remarkably well made walker. It, while lightweight, is sturdy. One can use it and feel secure from falling. It has many other pluses. I especially like the felling of an upright rather than the stooped position one almost inevitably develops."
