I purchased two of these almost three years ago and they are the best walkers. I have serious medical and mobility problems and so do my parents. I often have to use an electric wheelchair, but because I need to stay as ambulatory as possible I use a walker or cane on my better days. I have a tissue dysplasia, two skeletal dysplasias, and PsA. My parents also have similar health problems and I am the one who picks them up to take them to their doctor appointments. Because we all have joint problems, and are unable to lift much weight these walkers are perfect. They are space saving, light weight, fold easily, portable, and are sturdy. I am able to lift and slide them into my van behind the driver seat with ease. They are easy to fold to get them out of the way in a tight space. For example you can fold it and lean it against the back of your chair or wall in a doctor office. They fit through narrow spaces and doors better than many walkers. Both my mom’s walker and mine have held up well with all the use and abuse including the light red finish. I replaced the skis on the back of my mom’s walker with Funski glides by Vamp Medical and rehab inc. they are round plastic ball skis that do not catch on rugs or other transitions. Also, unlike tennis balls they can be wiped clean. Both of our walker’s front wheels have held up well and show minimal wear. I going to replace my walker skis as well with the Funski brand. In conclusion if you don’t have to worry about shoulder or back problems and have good upper body/core strength you can get away with a walker that you lift as you go or even one with a seat. However, for individuals with significant mobility and joint problems I recommend this walker. I should also mention I have another walker that I don’t use because it is too heavy and is extremely difficult to fold. My parents have another walker with a seat that my mom uses only out in her garage to move items from the house to the car or to the trash cans. However, that is all they use it for because it is heavy and difficult to fold. It also takes up too much space and does not fit into my van because I have a wheelchair lift. It only fits into a trunk, and would require the assistance of a strong individual to lift it in and out of a trunk. It is also larger and hard to maneuver in tight spaces and through doors.

The idea of a wheeled walker that folds into a small, very portable is irresistible. Over the past few years, airports with their long walks and, especially, their ramps have become an increasingly hostile environment for me. The thought of having this walker available immediately upon deplaning was extremely attractive. And if were a few inches shorter than 5’11”, I think all would be well. But at my height – and being quite new to walkers – I found this unit to be a bit too wobbly for my tastes. I have balance problems, so I want my support to be as stable as possible. Beyond the “wobble” factor, which others might find acceptable if they even notice, the unit is very well-designed and manufactured. The folding mechanism is cleverly engineered. When you’re bot folding it into its tiniest form, the side frames easily fold inward forming a package only about 4 inches thick. For those without balance problems that would be adversely affected by some wobble in the unit, I think this is a fine, extremely portable unit. I actually regret not being able to use it, but with the wobble, I am concerned with staying upright.erry

This walker was purchased for a mid-90’s woman recovering from hip surgery. She has used both 2 wheel and 4 wheel walkers for several years. She is very impressed with the light weight and portability of this walker. She has found the skids on the back legs to be much more useful than end caps and tennis balls used on previous walkers. Excellent value and quality.
