Of all the products we have reviewed and tested, we find the Vive Mobility the best upright walker. First, this model has an adjustable height armrest with loop brakes which you can efficiently operate with your fingers. It also comes with 8-inch front wheels that allow you to roll smoothly over different surfaces. Its detachable shoulder bag helps to carry all the essentials with you. Plus, the frame of the Vive Mobility is made of quality aluminum alloy that is durable enough to hold up to 300 pounds.
The Vive Mobility upright walker is as good as the OasisSpace model, which we nominated as the Best All Terrain Walker. Most walkers on this list are better for smooth surfaces, but seniors can use both walkers on even rougher terrains while retaining a good posture. Vive features flat-free wheels that will give you seamless stability on these surfaces.
What do we love it for?
- The shape of the walker provides a tension-free walk and reduces pain in the shoulders, neck, and lower back
- The soft armrests and textured hand grips help you achieve a comfortable upright position
- The lightweight aluminum alloy frame with a folding design can be effortlessly collapsed for storage or transport
- This upright walker is easy to assemble, and it weighs only 20 pounds
What were we disappointed with?
- Some users have commented that the front wheels are too close to the upright arm brace, so you have to be very careful with any “obstacles”
- This walker may be too large for the petite elderly as it is best suited for regular-sized people
