Standard Rollator

We purchased this for my mom shortly after she was discharged from the hospital. We wanted something reliable to help her regain her mobility, and this has been an absolute lifesaver. We recently took it to a local festival, and it performed beautifully. When the walking became too much for her, she was able to safely sit on the seat while we pushed her along. It’s incredibly sturdy, giving her the confidence she needs, yet it remains very easy to maneuver and move around.

My chronic illness has progressed to the point to where my PT suggested I get a rollator walker for my bad days. As I'm sure many others do, I found this difficult to accept and fully wrap my head around, but I knew she was right. I compared a lot of walkers and this was the only one that checked all of my boxes, but I just couldn't bring myself to hit "buy." The thing that finally gave me the courage to do it was seeing photo reviews from people who are young like me. So I promised myself I would come back and write a review to pay it forward to other young people who may be struggling emotionally with getting a walker. Every single time I've used it, I've said "oh my god, I love this thing so much." I have hypermobility and an autoimmune disorder, so on the days where I'm in a lot of pain, heavily fatigued, or generally unstable (or all of the above), this walker has been a lifesaver. Even on my "okay" days where I didn't feel like I needed it but brought it along just in case, I've thought to myself "wow, is this what walking is supposed to feel like?" because it just provides so much stability and I always have a seat no matter where I go. It has given me back so many things in my life that I've been in too much pain or too weak to do, like making dinner for my husband and I or going out with friends. If you have a chronic illness, even if you don't have a recommendation from a doctor or an official DX, get a rollator. Yes, I do struggle a little bit with impostor syndrome in certain places because I'm young, and because I only need it about 30% of the time right now, but I've actually had nothing but positivity from both friends and strangers so far. And honestly, even if people were looking at me sideways, I'd still be so over the moon about the fact that I can do lots of "normal" things again that it wouldn't make me regret getting the walker. Features I love the most: - 6" wheels (I thought 8" would look really big) - low profile and easier to fit through doors and walkways than many other rollators and walkers - lightweight. I can carry this even on one of my bad days. - easy to fold. I just pull up on the strap near the seat and it can go right in my compact SUV, my husband's sedan, or be tucked out of the way whenever I need to do that. - height is very adjustable and is accommodating of someone that's 5' tall - 14" wide seat with storage. Every other walker either had a 12" seat, which I felt would be very uncomfortable, or 18+", which was totally unnecessary for me and wouldn't be low-profile. - super sturdy. The build is high quality and the brakes are strong and easy to operate. I've used this walker while actively subluxated and it's kept me standing. The only thing I had trouble with is the brake cables. Because I'm so short and this walker is designed to be adjustable to a wide range of heights, putting it on the lowest setting makes the brake cables stick out really far and they kept catching on walls or knocking things over. So I just put some Velcro loops around them and tied the slack down to the sides of the walker. Problem solved. All that to say: if you're hesitating, just do it. And if you're still feeling bummed about it, put a bunch of silly stickers on your walker like I did.

I had almost grown weary of looking at so many rollators, reading reviews and comparing prices, but I kept coming back to this one due to the great reviews, the quality of the product, and the price! It fit my needs of having a comfortable and wide enough seat; extension of handles for my 5'10 height; being within the weight bearing range of 234 lbs; light enough that I will be able to lift it in and out of the trunk of the car easily, even with my disability. The brakes work great, so there was no need for any adjustment. As my posture has changed since my recent hip replacement this walker helps me to stand up straighter than the aluminum walker did. It glides over carpet so easily and maneuvers corners great! The shipping was fast, ordered on a Wednesday night and received Friday morning. It was just wrapped in plastic, not a lot of protection, but nothing was broken or out of place. I put it together in about 20 minutes and it's true that no tools are necessary. I'm pleased with this purchase!! Hope you will be too!

This rollator is easy to lift and not too heavy, plus easy to get aroung the house as well as outside. Has good breaks and is a reasonable price.

Was lighter weight than I expected. Purchased for my aunt and I am concerned that it will not last as long as her previous one which was also a Drive Walker.

I have had several different types of Drive walkers. They are the best walkers you can buy and they have a very high quality and their customer service is excellent. I had a problem with one of my previous walkers and I emailed their customer service with pictures and they sent me a brand new one. I started out with the heavier Drive walker that converts to a wheelchair. It is wonderful because my boyfriend can push me in it when my leg gives out. It is very important to know that with that type of walker that you have to be pushed backwards over bumps. However, that one is quite heavy and difficult for me to lift in and out of the car when I am alone. It actually hurts my shoulders now if I have to do it. I needed a lightweight walker like this one when I am out and about alone. I did a lot of research and this is the lightest weight walker I could find. It is stable and perfect for me. The pouch underneath the seat is large enough to hide my purse and no one can tell it is even in there. It is very easy to lift, fold and put in and take out of the car. I read a few negative reviews and I was shocked. First of all, if I weighed over 250 pounds then I would not purchase ANY lightweight walker. That is just common sense that these are not going to be stable enough for you and that it will eventually break. When you take this walker out of the car, sometimes it starts to open a little, but it is so lightweight that this is NOT a problem at all. Actually this just makes it easier when taking it out if the car, because there are no buttons or levers you have to manipulate to try to open it. In cases like those type of walkers, you end up trying to balance and stabilize the walker on the ground in an upright position while trying to open it up before it falls over. So actually this makes this one so much easier for me, because many times it starts opening before you get it to the ground unless you hold it a certain way. It is really NOT a problem at all. I think people who make any negative comments about this walker have not ever used other brands, which are made of poor quality. This walker can be $150.00 at a DME store, but to be able to purchase this one on Amazon for such a reasonable price with free shipping makes this an awesome purchase. It is very important to know that this is not a walker that you can be pushed in, but when you are sitting down it is very easy to move around some when you use your foot to move yourself a short distance. This walker is so easy to put together and pretty much comes assembled, except for putting in the handles. I have put other walkers together that came in small boxes from the pharmacy and it is a struggle. You even have to put in the wheels on those, unlike this one. The price is outstanding, considering purchasing a low quality one at a local store of a different brand is double the price. I highly recommend this as long as you do not weigh over 250 pounds. If that is the case, then you should purchase one that is not designated as lightweight. I highly recommend this walker. I love it and it has made my life so much easier. Thank-you Drive for creating such an awesome reliable product.

i just love this Drive Rollator! Mom needs to use one - but what makes this DRIVE model unique is 1) the back brace folds up - which makes is so much easier [and possible] to put it into the car: Mom's other rollator has a firm - non movable back support - which means that in the Ford Escape, the device takes up the entire trunk area and one fold-down seat. 2) The DRIVE Rollator weighs about 12-13lbs. WOW ~ the other models i've used weigh much much more, and they are so very difficult to fold, to lift up to the height of a trunk, and then use a 'scooping motion' to put it into the car's trunk; the back seat would hold the upper handled part - again, because of the non-movable back support, this is the only way to get it into the car. i'd buy the DRIVE Medical Rollator AGAIN - for the 1) weight - it lifts with one hand!, 2) it is so very easy to fit it into the space allotted by a typical trunk, and 3) it comes with a carry caddy [Mom loves it] - and you don't have to remove it to put the Rollator in the car. The thin connecting rod from left leg to right leg has a strap, and you just tug on it, and the Rollator folds into itself, Raise the back support brace, and it all lies pretty flat in the trunk. All i do is ensure the cable [breaking cable from the hand grip to the legs/back wheels] remains out of the way of the closing of the trunk. The Rollator comes completely assembled. It is VERY easy to adjust it for height. i've seen men using the same model in medical facilities, and they appreciate it for the same reason: easy to lift, easy to fit into the trunk, and the caddy/pouch gives them a place to put their medical files, e.g. Can't go wrong ~ we chose blue, but other colors are available, too. Very well-made device. Mom likes the comfort of the padded seat - the other [RX'd after my neck surgery - didn't have as soft of a seat. It also had a basket (things always were falling out), not a completely enclosed caddy - nothing falls of the DRIVE's pouch :) ~ and there's a separate zippered- area [inside, under the top of the lid] to conceal whatever you may wish. Mom likes to always have certain things with her all the times, and this really fits the bill. The 6" size wheels make it very easy to push - and Mom's had no problem using it indoors nor outdoors [to/from doctor appointments]. It's been through snow, rain, mud, etc. i just wipe it down with Armor All wipes, which i have on hand for general car cleaning. Only the back brakes lock - but that's the case for almost ALL of the Rollators, Anyone who plans to use theirs often, please consider this for the weight [12-13lbs,] , the security of having the back brace support if needed, the ability to raise the back support to make it easier to get into the car, and the really handy pouch, and the padded seat. Amazon's price is VERY comnmendable - i've seen it sold elsewhere - the exact same Drive model - for at least twice the price. Want to know how easy it is to push? Mom had her rotator cuff so severely damaged during a fall, that she needs a complete shoulder replacement. She feels very secure with the Drive Rollator. Thanks for asking ~ and best of luck to you!

This has helped so much. I never thought I would need a walker, but I am so glad I got this one. Rolls smoothly, easy to maneuver. No one ever wants one, but this is great for the price. Folds up kinda big, but still fits in back seat fine.

Bastante bueno y funcional

Easy to put together and very well made.

Muy mala calidad, nada que ver con las imágenes mostradas.

I bought this for my 94 year old dad, who suffered a broken hip this past year. We were looking for a walker that provided stability but was also light weight (so my 91 year old mom could pack it in and out of their car). THIS WALKER IS AMAZING!! The weight is minimal - my dad can maneuver it wherever he wants to go, and my mom can still lift it in and out of the trunk of the car. Yet, the stability is 100%. Including the seat my dad can sit on for a break, if he needs one. And there is the bin under the walker if they go shopping. I cannot say enough about this walker, it has transformed my parent's needs, in the 90th years of their lives!

Muy buen producto. Excelente para movilizar en casa a enfermos, ancianos, etc. Ligera y confiable.
