I have weakness in my quadriceps caused by a spinal cord injury. Until now I was never able to standup from a seated position without help. With this walker I now can for the first time, which is great!! My only diappointment is that the grips are a black foam rubber. I expected and would MUCH prefer the standard gray hard rubber grips that other Gaudian walkers have. I'm afraid the foam will get dirty easily and wear out quickly. The foot-print is also bigger than I expected. A little wider and 3-4 inches deeper.
I can now get up on my own for first time
