Medline Premium Empower Folding Mobility Rollator Walker with Memory Foam Seat, Black, 300 lb. Weight Capacity, 8” Wheels, Cupholder,Rolling Walker for Mobility Impairment, Adjustable Handles

I bought this walker for my fiancee who has trouble balancing and walking. We received it quickly and it is very easy to assemble. The directions are pretty clear and each wheel has a colored dot that you match to the colored dot on the Walker frame making assembly even easier.I'm going to list the Pros and Things to Consider (So far there are no cons)Pros:- Heavy-duty. The frame, seat, wheels and brake handles are all well built and sturdy. No worries of anything bending or snapping.- Stable. This is (in my opinion) a heavier in weight than most other walkers. It's also wider at the base, just under 27" wide at the rear wheels. The weight plus the wider stance makes this a stable walker. The old walker was lighter and narrower. It would sometimes tip over if you hit a small rock or bump. This walker is a beast and hasn't tipped over once, no matter what it hits.Wheels - It has 8" wheels which is night and day compared to the old walker that had 6" wheels. They are a softish rubber. The walker is quiet on tile and the rubber wheels don't pick up pebbles or dirt from outdoors. You should be safe going outside and coming back in without tracking in dirt.Brakes - The breaks work great. I think because of the 8" wheels it has more grip when you apply the breaks. Even on dirt, my fiancee has much better control going down slight inclines because the breaks actually help in control.Outdoors - The walker does great on dirt and grass. It's also great on uneven terrain.Seat - The seat is well mounted and is sturdy. Its larger than most walker seats, I believe its 16" wide with 2" of cushion.Step In. The step in feature is great. The seat lifts up and the storage bag slides forward giving you room to step in closer to the cabinets. Note: This will depend on how much you have in the storage bag. If its full, it may not close enough to appreciate the step in feature.Easy to Fold. You can fold the walker by sliding the two yellow sections down and lifting up on the handle under the seat.Traveling. If you reverse the assembly instructions, you can fit the walker into a large suitcase. Disassembled, you will need approximately 20" x 22" x 9" of space.Things to Consider:- Weight. This walker is heavier than most other walkers. (17lbs). However, it makes it very sturdy for those that need assistance for balancing as well as walking. It may be difficult for some to lift to get up steps or curbs.- Width. The widest part of the walker is the rear wheels measuring in at just under 27". It fits in standard doorways, BUT please measure your doorways to be safe. Some older homes and manufactured homes have smaller doorways that might pose a problem.Last Note:My fiancee is 4'11". With the handlebars and wheels at their lowest level, it is a perfect height for her.We would recommend this walker to most anyone. The only two major things to consider is the weight and width.

My 82 year old Mom already has a Drive Medical Nitro Rollator Walker that she uses inside of her home, but we wanted to get her a second walker for use outside of the home in order to keep her Nitro unit clean. This Medline walker was priced right and had a coupon as well, so based upon the good reviews we purchased one. It arrived well packaged and undamaged, and all of the wheels and handgrips were wrapped in separate plastic bags to protect them during shipping. The instructions were clear, but all I really needed for assembly was the picture as all of the non-attached components were color-coded so they would not be mixed up. After assembly I had Mom test drive it and she was very impressed. The wheels are slightly smaller than the Nitro unit, but they are still big enough for stability while going over uneven ground. The brakes work well and the walker has a solid feel to it. I like the padded seat and drink holder features that her more expensive Nitro doesn't have. The only downside is that when folding the unit for transport the handle under the seat doesn't always fold the unit and will lift the seat up instead. But overall I'm quite impressed with the quality of this walker for the very reasonable price and I would buy it again.

Great! A little heavy and awkward to get into smaller trunk. Was using an equinox for a recent trip and it fit in the trunk but little difficult to get in. However super sturdy can double as a wheelchair ( but you will be flagged in park if you do- can only be used to sit or as walker). Great storage walk through and comfy seat. Best one out there

Nice and sturdy. rolls good but it's difficult to fold up and pick up to put in the car. (having to turn the handles and the awkward way it folds) Plus the back wheels won't fit through a couple of my doors in my home...one the bathroom and the back door where I go in and out. I love the seat (thickness and cushion) and the basket is larger than most. I Iive alone so I don't have someone to help me get it in the car all the time.

I bought this for my 94-year-old father. He recently moved into assisted living. He'd been using one of those inexpensive front-wheel aluminum walkers with a pair of tennis balls on the back to act as skids. He's mentally sharp as a tack but has difficulty walking, especially with losing stamina. He can only walk a few dozen feet before he needs a break and is hunting for a chair. One morning at breakfast I saw this walker parked outside the dining room, and I was very impressed with how rugged and well made it looked. So, I snapped a photo of it and did a Google image search to find it.This walker has made a world of difference for him. He's out and zipping around the building a lot more. He uses the seat to take breaks when he's tired, and the seat doubles as a table if he needs to carry something. We reviewed the "correct" way to use a rollator-walker to ensure he was safe. I found a really good video on Youtube called "How to use a walker with a seat the RIGHT way". It's by "Your PT Guy". I highly recommend it. He's funny, and he goes over everything you need to know not to get hurt.I think the only negatives I have for this rollator are that it is heavy and awkward to lift when folded. To fold it, lift the handle on the underside of the seat, and the frame folds together with the front and rear wheels coming together. It's like a folding dining chair. The handles also fold inward. But it's still big and kind of awkward. This is more an issue for me or whoever he is traveling with, not so much for him, as he will never lift it into a trunk. I don't mind, but I could see an older, petite woman struggling with it.Another thing I like is that the wheels are solid rubber. That, combined with the weight of it, helps it hold position on the floor when the parking breaks are engaged. Again, this makes it feel safer and more stable.
