Uplivin Gavo 2-in-1 Rollator Wheelchair
The Uplivin Gavo combines a four-wheel rollator with a caregiver-pushed transport-chair mode in one folding aluminium frame. A simple pin system changes the handle position and configuration, allowing the same mobility aid to support walking or seated transport during an outing.
Available in both Small and Large/Regular variants. Both are rated to 136 kg, with 20.3 cm (8") front and 30.5 cm (12") rear wheels. The Small weighs approximately 10.5 kg with a 40 cm-wide seat, while the Regular weighs approximately 10.8 kg with a 45 cm-wide seat.
Gavo or Trive?
Choose the Uplivin Gavo when you need one product that can work as both a rollator and an attendant-pushed transport chair. Choose the Uplivin Trive when portability is the priority; at approximately 6.5 kg it is much lighter and folds more compactly, but its seat is for stationary resting only and it does not convert to a wheelchair.

Why Choose the Uplivin Gavo?
The Gavo is useful for outings where the user can walk with a rollator for part of the journey but may later need to be seated and pushed by a caregiver. It is not a self-propelled wheelchair; the transport-chair mode requires an attendant.
Flexible Support Through a Full Day Out
The Gavo is designed for days when walking ability or energy can vary. In rollator mode it provides a stable frame, hand brakes and a place to pause and sit. When continuing on foot becomes difficult, it can be changed into transport-chair mode so a companion can assist with the next part of the journey. This makes it especially practical for shopping trips, appointments, community outings and travel where taking separate walking and seated-mobility aids would be inconvenient.
Choosing between the two sizes is primarily about seat width, overall width and comfortable walking position—not simply body weight, because both versions share the same published 136 kg capacity. Check the intended user’s seated width, doorway clearance and handle-height requirements. Before the first outing, both user and attendant should practise changing modes, positioning the handles and operating the brakes using the linked manual.
