I give a huge thumb up that I use to take some travel. I can do some shopping. Otherwise I do not like to stand up too long for me that I take my rollator in anywhere. It's easy to use very well.

A remarkable value for the price! Great overall walker that is what is said and more. The only problem is that if you have split levels or sunken rooms and the user is perhaps frail and not able to lift it the walker is a bit difficult to manage. I have narrow hallways and a sunken living room and it made it virtually impossible to use indoors. It is very sturdy and the seat is quite comfortable.

Overall this is a good product but there are two spots where I've had to glue it. These are the fittings into which one screws the knobs that adjust the handle height. They are pressure fittings and they both came loose within the first year. A bit of SuperGlue did the trick, but I wouldn't be surprised if that has to be repeated once in a while.

I bought this for my Father who is 82 and uses a walker 100% of the time when walking. It's very sturdy and easy for him to use. The drawbacks to it are that if you don't have a ramp or a level doorway it is difficult to get in and out for people who might be a bit challenged, as my father is, with lifting. The weight of the walker is modestly hefty for the same reason. Not a problem for an average person but if you have limitations this adds to them. Though the walker folds easily it still does not become very space friendly. It takes up about half the space it normally does but now you also have a taller object. Brakes are easy to work and the wheels are wonderfully large enough to keep the ride smooth over even good size spaces that may be ecountered. If you have a large home with lots of room this would be great but we have a townhome with limited room. He uses this walker for outside only when he goes for walks and it is very good for it. Overall I am very pleased with the use we can get out of it, though I had hoped it would be one he could use indoors also. I don't know if others of similar type have the same limitationsor size considerations. It is definitely worth buying and using if you have the need for where it can be used. I would definitely recommend it but I try to would educate the friend on size and weight limitations before I let them just run out to buy one.
