The Mustang is a heavy duty special needs walker or gait trainer, available in 4 sizes and recommended for children aged 1 to 18 years of age, with a maximum user weight limit of 66 to 176 lb respectively (29.93 to 79.83 kg). Colors vary with size and between size 1 and 4 your unit will be either yellow, white, red or silver.What sets the Mustang apart is the fact that it’s versatile enough to be used as either an anterior or posterior gate trainer, while a comprehensive array of optional accessories will provide all the necessary support for children with varying degrees of physical requirement. The Anterior position is ideal for children who are unable to bear all their own weight on their feet, while the posterior configuration is perfect for users who’re a little more stable and want to be able to move up close to things and interact more. One thing is for sure, in no time, your special needs darling will be out and about, supported enough to engage and focus on the business of moving forward, all while learning to walk at his or her own pace.
