I found mine brand new, second hand …I can’t wait to get using it in summer . I am waiting to get Afos ..speaking of which …do you recommend any bracing for drop foot or difficulty lifting feet due to uhthoffs issues when cold.when hot I get issues with more unstable drunk walking, so my knees are out of alignment \are needing bracing, do you recommend any I can tell my Physio about ?
My physiotherapist was concerned that I would not be fully extended Ae as I a when walking with Walker. I have transverse myelitis and I can only walk only very slowly ..
There are many ways to help improve foot drop. I am big advocate for MS-specific exercises (many of which I have on my page for easy access)! Mobility aids of all kinds are great for increased confidence, safety, balance, and more!
Great question - I wouldn't say that one is better than the other. It just depends on what someone is looking for in an assistive device. Personally, I like that the Alinker allows someone to "sit" and rest while remaining as close to eye level as possible with other standing individuals.

You could always try using both the Alinker and walker - it doesn't have to be one or the other.
$2700USD is just too expensive for me, but looks like a great product!
They do campaigns , so the community pay for your campaign to have one 🎉
Thank you..I have drop foot and will this retrain my brain to walk better?

How is it better than a rollator walker?
