Tips for 5'4" larger woman
I love the product. Tip for those of us who are 5'4". If you have shorter legs or a larger bottom, I'd suggest buying the petite size. I had first bought the standard size, but the seat was slightly too high for my short legs and rounder bottom. I bought the petite size and gave it a try, and it fits my shorter legs perfectly. When I sit in the seat on the petite size, my feet are firmly flat on the ground and everything feels supported in a balanced and proportionate way. I was able to easily return the standard size rollator to my local UPS Store.So far it does everything it claims. I like the durable feel of the welded frame, the pretty look of the blue color, and the comfort of the seat. The wheels move well and make changing direction in small spaces very easy. This "walker" will give me more independence with shopping or going to the library, places where I can browse. I highly recommend it.

Wonderful, well made, pull it right out of box & use
Could not be happier with this, you did not need to put it together, it is so well made, everything about it is perfect. We ordered tall, but if you were 6’5 this would still be short My husband is 6’1 and this is perfect. I saw a man at a restaurant where he got it and took a picture of it and ordered. The price and quality are amazing. Wish I found this when my mom was alive. This is so much nice than the one I got her. You will not be disappointed. It is so easy to fold up, chair is steady and strong, brakes on handles work well. It is perfect in every category

Great indoors and outdoors. Travels well.
I am 81 years old, having balance and strength issues. I want to stay active but have fallen several time the last few years. I have a hospital supplied folding alum walker; it is ok indoors, but not outdoors.. It lacks some features I want. I want a seat in case I have to wait for a ride. I want large front wheels for safety on grass. I want capability to maneuver through narrow spaces. I want as light weight as possible.Within the past year I compared various rollators and eventually came up with this Drive Medical Nitro Sprint Rollator, model 10266. Nitro has capabilities I was looking for: seat, large wheels, side-to-side folding, 20# or less, I am 5’1” and female. I ordered Standard size in Black. Placed the order about a month ago, was shipped the following day and was delivered the day after. I opened box and began trying it out. No assembly needed (not a decision point for me). Easily adjusted it to fit me precisely. Can sit with feet on the ground, can stand upright between handles and walk between handles with a normal gait.First thing I did was pick it up. Was prepared to return it immediately if I couldn’t lift it. Various descriptions of this model had various weights, so I had to try it out.Amazon, pay attention here.It weighs about 20#; I ride with Uber, so driver must hoist it into vehicle for me. Various drivers may be husky or frail. So far, so good.Hospital-supplied walker can accommodate a tray (purchased separately) for carrying items such as food, books, drinks, etc. Nitro accommodates a tray (purchased separately) onto its seat only. Neither of them can have a tray attached while folded. Therefore, tray is only useful at home for me.In addition to my pocketbook, a crossbody shoulder bag, very small, I carry a “saddlebag”—a fairly large purse—on my hospital-supplied walker. Use it for carrying “necessities”, like flashlight, water bottle, garage door opener, book, change of underwear, etc., it hangs on my shoulder when walker is folded. Nitro recommends NOT hanging anything on it. Therefore have to have saddlebag on my shoulder or resting on seat at all times when using Nitro.The Nitro is very sturdy; it rolls very smoothly and quietly indoors and out. I just press a lever with my foot to go up a curb. Tried it on grass, works fine up a grassy incline. I lean forward slightly when going uphill, a little backward when going down and hold “slow down” brake when going down. Had a learning curve about operating brake. When new, I parked it at top of my driveway without setting handbrake. It rolled down the driveway and out into the street in no time! Now I set the handbrake every time when it is parked.The Nitro is versatile in its folding strategy. I can fold it by lifting up the handle on its seat and it folds side-to-side, just like a wheelchair folds. I can navigate narrow hallways and can push it ahead of me when entering a church pew (when there is enough room in the pew. It will stand upright when folded, don’t have to lean it onto anything. I can swiftly open it when conditions permit just by pushing down on the edges of the seat.Now for a comment about the bag. The bag hangs either in front of the seat or behind with two little fasteners on the bag and two pegs on either side of the seat. Has a handle atop bag. Good if you have enough free hands. Bag come with a shoulder strap included, but no way to hook shoulder strap onto bag. Zipper is flimsy, needs stiffening behind the zipper. Takes two hands to zip and unzip around corners. Bag must be empty…or off pegs… when Nitro is folded. Bag absolutely useless to me.Oops, didnt realize bag is supposed to fit onto handlebars. Haven't tried that yet. Will update this review laterHope this helps.I ordered Nitro clip-on cup holder and Nitro Cane holder when I placed order for Drive Nitro Rollator. Will review them separately.Long story short: I cut off the hangtag yesterday. Nitro is mine now.

Version 2.0 and I love it!
As a younger person living with multiple sclerosis, having to use a Rollator is about the last thing you want to have at my age. I have been using one of these (what I will call the older model) for the last eight years and have absolutely loved them.I have multiple. I keep one in the car and one in the house. They get extremely heavy use being that I teach full-time and use it at school. I get asked so many questions about it no matter where I go and always sing its praises. I should be a rep for these people because I could’ve sold at least 100 of them by now.This is the latest model and has some new features. I really like that the pouch is not webbed, but an actual bag which gives you some security when keeping stuff inside. It’s also raised a little bit higher so the bag won’t get caught in the front wheels when you turn, you also have three options to where you want to keep it on the device. The seat is a little bit higher than the older model which just feels nice, not like you’re sitting on the ground. The ride is smooth just like the other model but the backing on the seat is a little bit different and I’m curious to see how that feels over time.Still lightweight and easy to handle in and out of the car. I am only 5 foot 2 and have owned the petite model in all of them that I purchased. I’ve never tried the standard size and certainly don’t need the tall size.As a young person having to use one of these, I cannot recommend it enough. I can’t speak to its functionality for an older person being that I’m not one, but as someone who is very ambulatory and still moves relatively quick, other than having terrible balance, I don’t know how it would be for an older person to use.I purchased the color black because it suits me the best. It does come in cool colors and I bet you those look great too. $200 for one of these I think is a steal.Don’t hesitate, it’s worth it. I will update this after a bit to keep you posted on my impressions. Again, I should be a rep for these people! Hey Amazon hook me up!!!Impressions after one month…. Works great feels good. In fact a little bit sturdier than the previous model. Brakes are great. Everything works really well. I just feel like they’ve completely upgraded the entire device still a fan. It’s worth it no regrets. And the new design of the backrest is spine actually feels more supportive.
