Overview
The Bure XL is DHG’s bariatric-capacity powered walking aid, providing the same stand-and-walk functionality as the Rise & Go DB at a 529 lbs (240 kg) working load and a 35 in (88 cm) wide support platform. For users who exceed the 330 lbs (150 kg) capacity of the standard Rise & Go DB, the Bure XL is the appropriate clinical specification.
The wider frame accommodates bariatric body widths while maintaining the device’s core function: powered sit-to-stand assistance combined with a stable walking frame for subsequent ambulation.
When to Specify the Bure XL
- User weight between 330–529 lbs (150–240 kg)
- Wider body width requiring the 35 in (88 cm) frame
- Bariatric rehabilitation programs where powered standing assist is clinically indicated

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Bure XL appropriate for bariatric rehabilitation programs? Yes. The Bure XL is specifically designed for bariatric users requiring powered standing assist — the 529 lbs (240 kg) capacity and 35 in (88 cm) wide frame provide appropriate support at body widths that exceed the standard Rise & Go DB’s adjustable range. Suitability for a specific patient should be confirmed with the treating physiotherapist.
Does the Bure XL fit through standard bariatric-configured doorways? The Bure XL has a 35 in (88 cm) wide fixed frame. Standard bariatric room door widths in US healthcare settings (typically 44–48 in / 112–122 cm clear) accommodate the XL frame. Confirm doorway widths in the specific facility before specifying.
What is the clinical difference between the Bure XL and the Rise & Go DB beyond capacity? The primary difference is the fixed 35 in (88 cm) frame of the XL versus the adjustable 26–42 in (66–106 cm) frame of the Rise & Go DB. For bariatric users, the fixed wider frame provides consistent lateral support. For users who need the device to narrow for door clearance and widen for use, the Rise & Go DB’s adjustability is the advantage — but only up to 330 lbs (150 kg) capacity.
