This was well worth it! The case, the straps, the whole piece is phenomenal. I was diagnosed with muscle disease. My legs are going downhill fast. I purchased this to build my strength. Going to PT is often stressful. The fatigue, fighting for my life feeling just to walk, this machine has brought stability in my home. My goal is to avoid a wheel chair. I am hoping this brings me back to life. I love being able to choose the resistance on good/bad days. It’s mini and doesnt take up too much room. It’s amazing for those whom cannot get out of bed, or need a chair for balance. It doesn’t discriminate. Assembly was so simple and easy. It was worth the cost, it has a QR code for setup a long with a booklet. You are set for success with this! 10/10. Review: This is revolutionary... Rehab/Exercise in a Brief Case! - I am a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation resident physician and I am always looking for creative ways to make rehab accessible and help functionality as much as possible. My mom had open heart surgery recently and needed some home physical therapy while she recovered at home. I was told about the Movao Leg Press from a physical therapist I work with and in my experience (medical and personal), this has been so instrumental in my mom's rehab! The Movao Leg Press is light, but sturdy. Such super high quality! When I opened the case, I was so surprised by the quality and the detail that the designers put into this to make it so super functional for the user. You can use this sitting, laying down, standing up. It is safe to use and has added clips/supportive straps that you can attach to the press to make it even more secured! It does take some getting used to initially, but the instructional booklet is so easy to read, has pictures that make setting up and exercising simple. This is an all-in-one answer for lower limb rehab. You can change resistance levels and the incline which makes it multifunctional, and help you start slow and build up your endurance and strength. It is so convenient to use. Small enough where you can move it around, store it under the bed, and it is not heavy at all. This would be great for people trying to work on sit-to-stand mechanics, wanting light-to-moderate workout, improve endurance and strength. This could be beneficial for people who have already finished physical therapy after hip or knee surgeries, ankle or muscular strains (make sure to clear with your PT first). My mom loved using this and even after her rehab, she still uses this on the daily in the morning as it has helped her stamina and joint pains. It is so good, I got one for myself! I think this is revolutionary and so many people can benefit from this. ## Features - BUILT FOR EARLY-STAGE RECOVERY, NOT THE GYM — Movao uses elastic resistance (roughly 11–66 lb of band tension across 6 levels) designed for stroke, post-surgical, neurological and deconditioned patients rebuilding basic strength. If you currently leg press over 100 lb at the gym, this will feel light. - 6 PROGRESSIVE ELASTIC LEVELS + SPARE CORDS INCLUDED — Start gentle and progress at your own pace. Cords swap in under 60 seconds (step-by-step video in the manual and on our brand page). Extra cord included so you can keep going if one wears. - WORKS ON FIRM SURFACES — Best on a firm mattress, hospital bed, recliner, floor or sturdy chair. Included stabilizer straps and carabiners anchor the unit so it won’t slide. On a very soft pillow-top mattress, use the included straps or place a board beneath. - 9 LB, FULLY ASSEMBLED, CARRY CASE INCLUDED — 24.5″ × 11.5″ × 5.5″ folded. No tools, batteries or power cord. Unbox, choose a cord, start pressing - Smooth Linear Glide: precision rails plus padded, non‑slip footplate keep joints safe and movement comfortable. - Redesigned in October 2025 to include more resistance and a smoother glide. - Our mission is to provide accessible and efficient rehabilitation products that promote strength and independence, supporting patients from ICU to home care. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0DSV58WYW | | Best Sellers Rank | #22,090 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #36 in Physical Therapy Leg Exercisers | | Brand | Movao | | Brand Name | Movao | | Color | Silver | | Controls Type | Push Button | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 95 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00198715605174 | | Included Components | Carabiners, Protective Carry Case, Stabilizers | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 24.5"D x 11.5"W x 5.5"H | | Item Type Name | exercisemachine | | Item Weight | 12 pounds | | Manufacturer | Movao | | Material | ABS Plastic | | Material Type | ABS Plastic | | Maximum Weight Recommendation | 350 pounds | | Model Number | Basic MOVAO | | Number of Items | 7 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Number of Resistance Levels | 6 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Product Dimensions | 24.5"D x 11.5"W x 5.5"H | | Software Update Supported to Date | unknown | | Warranty Description | 1 Year | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Movao - **Color:** Silver - **Item Weight:** 12 pounds - **Material:** ABS Plastic - **Product Dimensions:** 24.5"D x 11.5"W x 5.5"H ## Images ![Mini in-Bed Leg Press for Rehab | US Doctor Invented for Stroke, Post-Surgery & Limited Mobility | Use in Bed, Chair or Wheelchair | 6 Resistance Levels | Portable 9 lb PT Equipment - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7169PlGhMiL.jpg) ![Mini in-Bed Leg Press for Rehab | US Doctor Invented for Stroke, Post-Surgery & Limited Mobility | Use in Bed, Chair or Wheelchair | 6 Resistance Levels | Portable 9 lb PT Equipment - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71JJtdkvy6L.jpg) ![Mini in-Bed Leg Press for Rehab | US Doctor Invented for Stroke, Post-Surgery & Limited Mobility | Use in Bed, Chair or Wheelchair | 6 Resistance Levels | Portable 9 lb PT Equipment - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hSYR8iu+L.jpg) ![Mini in-Bed Leg Press for Rehab | US Doctor Invented for Stroke, Post-Surgery & Limited Mobility | Use in Bed, Chair or Wheelchair | 6 Resistance Levels | Portable 9 lb PT Equipment - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71gqDLph-zL.jpg) ![Mini in-Bed Leg Press for Rehab | US Doctor Invented for Stroke, Post-Surgery & Limited Mobility | Use in Bed, Chair or Wheelchair | 6 Resistance Levels | Portable 9 lb PT Equipment - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tb7L5e3kL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Invest in yourself! *by K***L on September 8, 2026* At first I was hesitant because of the price but taking care of your health, shouldn’t have a price tag.
