Journey 08979 UPWalker Premium Lite V2 Upright Walker, 10" Front Wheels, Collapsible Wheels, Reversible Backrest, Motion-Activated LED Lights, 300 lb Capacity
The Premium Lite V2 is the mid-size frame in the UPWalker line, lighter than the Original but carrying features the Original does not. It keeps the same patented upright geometry: forearms rest on padded, height-adjustable supports at shoulder height, the user stands inside the frame, and weight sits centrally over the wheelbase rather than out in front.
What separates it is the ride and the detail. The wheels are larger and softer than the Original's, 10 inches at the front and 8 at the rear, which makes a real difference over thresholds, expansion joints and packed paths. The backrest reverses between two positions for mid-back or lower-back support. Two motion-activated LED lights come on in low light. The armrest pads are removable and washable. The V2 revision adds collapsible wheels: the frame, legs and wheels all fold inward, which is what brings the folded package down to 9.5 inches wide.
Fit range: 4'10" to 6'1", rated to 300 lbs. Users taller than 6'1" need the UPWalker Original Large frame, which reaches 6'5" and 350 lbs. Users shorter than 4'10" need the EZ Lite. Journey rates the Premium Lite for both indoor and outdoor use.
Journey classes the UPWalker as FDA registered and ISO safety certified, and states that it does not diagnose, prescribe or process insurance claims.
