Drive Medical Aluminum Rollator Fold Up and Removable Back Support, Padded Seat with 7.5-Inch Casters, Red

Sprained my ankle badly, but the dog still needs to go for walks. This has helped give me support and made the ankle less tired and sore. It seems to be sturdy enough. Folds easily and isn't too heavy. Easy to put together. Took me about 10 minutes alone. Handles on grass or dirt very easily. Cons: This is the ugliest color I have ever seen. I'm going to have to paint it because I just can't stand it. The brakes work well, but I have very small hands, so while I can easily do temporary braking, I have to remove my hands from the handles to reach down to set or release the brake. This can be dangerous. I think sometimes it is too maneuverable, so it can be a bit surprising. The instructions were impossible. No photos of some of the parts and how they go together. And they are so tiny I had to use a magnifier anyway. I haven't used the seat/storage because I had to put a box on that to put the dog in when we cross asphalt or sidewalks. It's a billion degrees in Phoenix already in May. But I'd recommend it as an affordable

This walker works great. The controls are easy to operate. It folds easily to put in car. The basket holds a lot of items. The seat is convenient to use as a chair. It’s durable and sturdy and lasts a long time. Totally worth the money!

I have purchased several of these, and all have performed. Easy to fold, light weight makes it easy to load in a vehicle. Rolls and swivels well. Seat size is ample and handles adjust for height.

This 14lb Drive Medical Aluminum (DMA) rollator is probably the best buy for a lightweight rollator walker you’re gonna find anywhere. At $90 it compares most favorably to Drive’s top-of-the-line Aero Ultra Light walker, which goes for $300 and is actually 1/2lb heavier. Also many of the $600 to $700 carbon fibre walkers are also in the 13-14lb range. So anything in that weight range that sells below $100 is a bargain! This DMA rollator is an older style in that it folds from front- to-back instead of side-to-side like the newer ones do. ~But IMO this is actually an advantage as it allows a larger 14x12” nicely padded firm seat instead of those awful canvas slung seats the newer styled ones have! And it also has a decent storage area under it’s seat, which at a full 23” above the ground is easier to sit down and rise up from. (Although shorter legged folks might find this to be a bit uncomfortable for them?) Also there’s no fold-up lock, so while it’s very easy to get this walker in and out of a car it does tend to open up on you if you’re not careful when carrying it. I think an inexpensive Velcro strap might well solve this problem. This DMA rollator rolls great on it’s 7.5” wheels. Indeed it’s really quite zippy, so you have to be aware of this and not let it get away from you... The brakes work good as does the brake lock, and the brake shoes are strong metal bars instead of more easily worn down plastic. The handle bar grips are just meh, ~coming in a hard pebble grained black plastic. But they’re formed right and comfortable enough, so they do the job okay. So that’s it. Where I did return a more expensive modern side-to-side folding roIlator I found uncomfortable, I’m keeping this and am glad I bought it… ADDL: When I first got this it had sort of a not-exactly-smooth, slightly jiggerly ride even on my smooth apt floor, and I just accepted it as not worth fussing about.... But after being pushed around a few times on some outside street terrain {concrete and rough tarmac} it now glides as smooth as glass indoors. I suspect one of the tires had a small production flaw, a bubble or a blip, and wheeling it around outside naturally shaped that tire into a more perfect round. ~LOL! ~And this has now made the walker even more enjoyable to use...

I am experiencing walking issues as both my knees have arthritis making walking for long distances painful and exhausting. Walking with a cane puts added stress on my arms and shoulders. This rollator has kept me moving! I’m 5’7” and this model allowed me to adjust the height of the handles so I don’t slouch or lean over when walking. The storage seat is comfortable and can hold a small handbag and foldable cane. Love this color red. It’s not a bright red, more of a darker crimson red. It’s lightweight but feels sturdy and the 7” wheels glide easily on most surfaces. Takes one hand to fold up for easy transport or storage. (Just a suggestion, when folding it up to lean against a wall, be sure to set both hand brakes as this will help it to not roll.)

Easy to put together and very comfortable to sit on. The wheels are fantastic and make moving around very easy. The weight is excellent to allow me to put in the back of my car. I used it on the boardwalk at the shore and could not have been able to walk the distances I did without it! Great quality!

The Cadillac, no, the BMW of rollators! A major step up from a walker! Everything you need. This is well constructed and will definitely last a long, long time. Comes with a seat, wheel-locking brakes, and rolls easily. In addition - very stable! This helpful aid has helped two different people while they recovered from knee replacement surgery, and it's still as good as new.

I purchased this for a friend whose walker gave out on him. This is a very nice unit. Build quality is amazingly good for the price. I tried to find one locally and the lowest priced unit was $174.99, So it was financially more logical to buy this, and even with overnight shipping I saved about $75. Back to build quality. The frame is heavy gauge, the welds are smooth and even and the powder coat finish is great. There's a lot of plastic in the connectors, handles, etc., but it is heavy stuff for the most part, and especially on the high-wear areas. There are cable clips for the brake cables, which is an improvement over the last one because they would get hung up in the frame when you folded it. Speaking of folding, this one has a carry strap that is handy to carry the walker with, so when I take him to the doctor, it's easier to handle putting in and taking out of the car. The seat is sturdy and solid and padded reasonably well. The pocket is adequate for a variety of things including a sweatshirt /hoody thing he carries around. There's a zipper pocket on the seat bottom too. Nice touch. The brakes work well and are easy to engage and release, with ergonomic hand grips. Decent tires too; they're solid but have a bit of give to them so they're somewhat cushioned. Overall, this is an excellent deal and I expect it to last a long time.

Tuve que aceitar los rodamientos de las ruedas. Se encontraban oxidados. En general la calidad del producto es buena. El tamaño de las ruedas facilita desplazarse.

Would buy from this seller again. Excellent Rollator, supports me very well when I need to move about. I thought it was very reasonably priced too.

The rollatorv was too big to use in my bungalow, however I found it nice and sturdy to use when going for a walk. Therefore, we decided not to return it. I found it difficult to fold and too heavy to get on the bus, but I am pleased to have it as enables me to go out.

Excelente

Bought for my 90 year old mother who keeps having falls, it's really sturdy and the seat is handy to have , the shopping bag underneath the seat is useful too.
