Product as Advertised - A Satisfied Customer July 4, 2010

I experienced a first-time delivery glitch (??), but the vendor promptly sent out a second unit with no questions asked. The product itself is great. Speaking as an engineer, I find it very well designed and attractive.

Too tall for short people January 25, 2010

There was no description given for height regulations other than how tall the walker was. It was only after we had used it that we discovered the lowest setting was too tall. The model number is for people over 5'5". It also would be nice to have a lock for the brakes. Other than that, it works fine.

Big wheels good for uneven terrain November 5, 2007

I bought this for my mother. We are about the same height so I set it up comfortable for me in the handle bar height, for a 60" person I find the seat a touch high but not horrendously so. There's almost nothing to setting it up, just pop in the back rest, adjust the handles to the proper height and take the plastic off the wheels. My biggest challenge has been getting mother to use it (stubborn as two mules--doesn't want to be embarassed using it in public, would rather fall I guess). I find it light and easy to fold, only problem is with the handle bars attached it's a bit big to fit in the trunk of her 94 nissan sentra (and to take the handlebars off you have to completely unscrew a bolt with a large hand-turn knob on it--yes this is probably more reliable and safer but they should be able to come up with a more "quick release" type thing for here), i.e. I think for the price of these it could fold a bit more. If I had it to do again I'd get a cloth basket, may add that or make one myself. The metal basket is sturdy but you have to remove it when folding it up and that kinda defeats the purpose of a folding walker if you ask me. If you've got an older 50's house with smaller rooms this may be a bit large for use inside the house and tiny bathrooms. It seems very well made, paint job is pretty, the wheels are not solid hard rubber they are somewhat "grippy," the brakes work well but I'm a little concerned that after heavy use they may start to loosen up but we'll have to see about that (handles lock down to lock brakes or function as pull up brakes too). You need a somewhat large space to lean it into when not in use, it folds very easily and I think it's very light but the large wheels do tend to flop around a bit when you pick it up. If mom is putting this in her own car you might hear some complaining about it being hard to deal with. The large wheels are better if this is being used on the golf course, moving across a gravel driveway or just across uneven sidewalks period (our patio walkway uses paving stones and the surface is somewhat uneven). Before buying this one I looked at this one at our local stores, they were all over 200 bucks and I didn't see anything there that I don't see on this one for half the price, of course all those places were medical supply stores, this unit carries a bit more weight than some of the others I looked at. About the only thing I'd change is the basket, i'd switch to a cloth basket instead of the metal one. The handle bars don't have the odor someone complained about that I can detect. The seat is basic, padded and the back rest bar is curved not straight (pretty comfy to sit in), I was hoping to get mom out for a walk with it but haven't won that fight yet.

The better rollator (a stable of 3) in the barn? July 26, 2007
Sloman (Santa Rosa, CA)

This is the 3rd lightweight rollator I have purchased, and probably the most structurally sound. The frame feels more in balance even on uneven surfaces, and the braking system is unique from the other two, and hopefully more substantial (Time will tell.) Also the wheels have flat surfaces (rather than tapered) so the sense of stability is more acute. It comes with a carry basket, which will do when needed. I prefer the under seat storage on my HUGO Elite, which comes in a very close 2nd, with its excellent customer service. Both are available at Amazon.com at very affordable prices.
The worst experience is with DRIVE Medical Design's D-Lite 750 because of a very sub-standard parts and repair service policy.

Works OK, but there is a problem. June 25, 2007
Ralph E. Smith (Warner Robins, GA United States)

Bought this item to replace a walker without wheels and this item works okay but there is a problem with no apparent solution. The material that the grips on the handlebars are made of has an extremely foul odor that you cannot get rid of. The odor is so profuse that it can make you ill feeling and it rubs off on your hands. I contacted customer service at the manufacturer, Invacare, and they were aware of the problem but had no suggestions to correct the problem. Even though they had been aware of this problem for a period of time no action had been taken to correct it, such as, a change in material. They only said to live with it and eventually the odor would wear off. If you buy this item, don't say you were not warned!!!
