This Rifton mobile stander was donated to our program and needs to find a permanent home. It's in used condition and needs some additional cleaning. This is a smaller size - not for adult sized people. There's no clear markings showing the model/size, however it's got 27" wheels for mobility, and the base is 24" wide. If you need more info or are interested, please contact the office at 518-564-3362.
