Excellent Product! November 15, 2008 This canvas basket is an excellent product, that is much better than a wire basket. It has an internal frame that allows it to expand or contract, as needed, so it doesn't take up any more space than needed at any given time. It is very well made and durable. I added a couple of plastic tie-wraps to make the attachment to the legs more secure, which helped a lot, as it tended to come loose too easily without them.
Great for my Father August 19, 2008 I ordered this for my father, and it works like a charm, he tends to fall even with his walker, and the basket will come off when the walker goes over, but some velcro cord ties stopped that problem. Now people are asking him where he got it.
Not a horrible basket, but I had problems August 12, 2008 I bought this basket to replace a cloth pouch my mother had sewn for me which hung straight down from the center crossbar, as the pouch had seen heavy wear and was ready to be retired. (I had never had a basket attached to my walker that stuck out the front.)
The attachment mechanism is not the best, either. The are mere sprung hooks, which come off easily with any sort of rough treatment (putting it in the car, for example). It would have been better for it to have something that wraps around the bars that make up the walker, thus securing it.
The walker had a definite tendency to tip over forward if left unattended with any kind of load in the basket (two bottled waters, even). This led to its eventual downfall (literally), as one of the pieces attaching it to the walker broke off, rendering it useless. And having the load that far forward of the your center of mass when walking multiplies the strength needed to lift it, if that is a concern.
Now I'm back to the homemade one, I guess, repairing it as necessary until it falls completely apart. I definitely won't buy a basket that attaches to the front.
good product June 5, 2008 We purchased this to use on a walker for quick access to a phone, tissues, etc. I wish it was made of a lighter color material. Things get lost in the black material. Otherwise a handy item.
excellent walker basket March 27, 2008 This is an excellent walker basket. It fits on the carex walker perfectly. It is a strong and lightweight basket. It does not add unnecessary weight to the walker which some other baskets do.
