I called the number on their site to find out more about Medicare coverage. There are some requirements: you have to have a neurological diagnosis, you shouldn't have had any assistive mobility device covered by Medicare in the last 5 years, and I believe there were a couple of other requirements.

Medicare coverage seems to vary by state, and it sounded fairly involved, at least for my state. I decided to call another time when I felt up to dealing with that much information. But apparently there is Medicare coverage.

i wonder if you call the company if there's a way for you to try it out first?
depends on where they're located. it gives a width. you could try taping out the width of their walker on your own and see what happens.

please let us know. how much?

According to their Website you can try one out by going to a store that carries this item--but only on the store premises.

The price listed is $578 for the walker, seat, and basket, and the optional laser cueing module (light and audio) would be an additional $249. I wouldn't want the cueing module, and Medicare/Medicaid would cover some of the $578, or at least that's what they told me when I called.

I think I want one of these...except that I technically use two walkers. I live in my parent's basement. And it's a pain in the backside to have to carry a folded up walker up and down the stair lift on the stairs. My dad bought me two walkers when I started having to use one. Wish I had the money to buy two this one. One for when I'm downstairs, and in the backyard, and one for upstairs and out in the real world.

I usually pay out of pocket for walkers (or my dad helps me). Maybe I can get one now, and then get another one later on. I'm sure if I got one, my parents would hijack it. So, they'd have to get their own. (they both have medicare, and tri-care insurance. They could probably get medicare to pay for at least one for themselves)

I'm going to have to show this website to my dad.

I believe it weighs about 22 lbs., and that would be pretty heavy. I find that I have to lift my two-wheeled basic walker now and then but it's much lighter.

Yes, 22 lb is way to heavy to hoss around.

I definitely agree that 22lbs seems way to heavy to move around. I mean my wheelchair only weighs 16lbs and even it can feel light a beast on a bad day. I really couldn't imagine trying to toss around 22lbs. But I also don't have any walkers to compare the weight differences. I tried a walker a few times back when I injured my back at PT, but I just couldn't get it down. I never felt comfortable with it, we couldn't seem to get the height adjusted right, it didn't fit my stride length and it aggravated everything too much to try and shorten my stride to what felt like tiny baby steps to get around.

It looks fancy! Lifting 22 pounds would be tough as it's an odd shape. It's not like lifting 2 bags of potatoes or, in my case, my grandson. I'm also not so sure about the back wheels. I think I would trip over them as I have no sense of space when it comes to my left leg. It kind of does its own thing.

If you try it out, let us know how you like it.
