The Proactive Protekt Pilot Upright Walker is designed to put the user in a more upright posture. Where other walkers may create slouching or hunching over, the Pilot allows users to stand up straight.  The adjustable height padded armrests allow the user to stand more erect preventing the potential for back pain.  Standing more erect due to the height adjustable armrest causes many users to feel safer and better supported, decreasing their fear of falling. Standing upright will also raise your head position so the eyes look straight ahead which increases your field of vision decreasing incidents of tripping or loss of balance. Lockable ergonomic dual handbrakes provide better control for braking, sitting and parking.

What Makes It Different:

Proactive’s Protekt Pilot comes with a great standard accessory package which includes a beverage holder, cane holder, personal item bag and safety LED light. When out for a long walk or having been standing with your Pilot for an extended period you can take a break by using the Pilot as a place to sit with its comfortable fabric seat and padded back support. Once you are ready to get back up the Pilot has padded Stand Assist Handles that make the transition from sitting to standing much easier and safer. Large 8” front rubber wheels which swivel 360° make for easy and safe maneuvering and are also great for going over bumps and uneven surfaces whether indoors or outdoors.

Why We Like It:

The Proactive Protekt Pilot Upright Walker is a great option for those wanting a walker that will not only assist in their ambulation but also improve their posture. The upright positioning will help you to feel more in control of your walker due to a better line of sight and added stability.
