Dr. Chuck, PT explains one of the most unique safety features of the U-Step: reverse braking. Traditional rollators can get away from people, creating what's known as the "runaway rollator" effect. Instead of providing support, the walker rolls ahead and forces the person to keep up or fall.
The U-Step works differently. It will not roll until you lightly squeeze either hand brake. Once you release the hand brake, it will stop immediately. This helps promote better control, stability, and confidence while walking.
Watch Dr. Chuck demonstrate.
