Vive Walker Ski Glides & Covers 4 PCS - Tennis Ball Accessories Sliders for Seniors, Universal, Heavy Duty - Precut Medical Folding Rolling Slider Replacement Feet Coaster Cap Gliders, Durable

My wife's Guardian front wheel walker came with polymer caps on the back legs. Two days ago one fell off, both had worn away exposing the aluminum tube leg! She had only used them for 4 months, only about 5 or 10 minutes outdoors on pavement a couple of times a week. And she is not heavy but wore the caps through before we knew it. BE SURE YOU ORDER THESE SKI GLIDES BEFORE THE CAP ON YOURS WEARS THROUGH. LOOK AT THE CAP. I ordered these when we got home and they came two days later. I am impressed: quality durable thick polyethylene, well designed, robust locking wedge securely holds these glides in the leg and ar, easy to install. BUT!!! I had a problem because the caps put on by Guardian/Drive contained plastic posts inside the hollow leg that had to be removed before I could install the new Vive Glides. Not so easy, totally flat surface with nothing to grab hold of to pull them out. I had to drill into the plastic plug to get them out out. Then the VIVE Ski Glides slipped right in and it was simple to tighten the Phillips screw pulling up the wedge and anchoring the glides tightly in the leg. They glide effortlessly across carpet, hardwood, linoleum, tile. And will be much smoother on pavement. Be sure to get them tight enough to prevent the glide from rotating. PLEASE READ ALL THE INFORMATION ON THIS PRODUCT PAGE AND IN THE SMALL INSTRUCTION SHEET THAT COMES WITH THESE VIVE SKY GLIDES! Many reviewers have not done so. THE FABRIC COVERS ARE FOR INDOOR USE ONLY! DO NOT USE THEM OUTDOORS. THIS IS STATED IN THE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AS WELL AS THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT COME WITH THE GLIDES. They can tear in one day on pavement. I recommend these for everyone who uses a front wheeled walker. This is much better than tennis balls and look a lot better too.

These little sliders work like a champ. I keep the booties on while in the house and easily navigating over hardwood floors, lightweight carpet and plush carpet. Remove the booties and you are ready for the street and sidewalks. The raised front of the slider can only accommodate a small rise in the walking surface, so be aware of that and you will be fine. Taking the booties on and off were pretty easy, much like putting on a sock. Be sure to really tighten th screw holding the slider in place, otherwise through vibrations it will want to spin on the shaft of the walker. Would buy again if this pair wears out.

These Vive Walker Ski Glides are a great product. I replaced the walker front wheels to a bigger size and the rear leg pegs with these Vive Walker Ski Glides. The replacement parts made the walker much more stable. The Ski Glides were very easy to install. The Glides are made of good quality material and are thick. They do not leave skid marks on my wood, laminate, or stone flooring. Though they are not necessary, the booties are a nice addition for interior flooring. However, they are hard to place over the skids (glides) and taking them off and on when indoors to outdoors and visa versa is kind of a pain. The Vive Walker Ski Glides and Booties are a wonderful product and are highly recommended.

Great

These walker skis are awesome. While the other skis we have tried loosen up and turn a bit or even fall out of the walker, these are heavier, thicker and have a built-in mechanism with a bolt inside that tightens it up inside the walker leg so it doesn't move. I have no use for the ski covers, but I imagine they would be helpful if I had marble floors.

Great concept for covers for gliders to prevent scratching your floor. Only problem is they are very hard to get on, especially with arthritic hands like I have. There is very, very little stretch to these. Takes me at least 10 minutes to get them on.

Purchased this for my mother who was using the tennis ball covers. These are much better! Super easy to install and makes the walker very quiet! Our house has ceramic floor tile as well as thick carpet. The cover slide easily and are so quiet even on the ceramic tiles.

These really help! Just had a hip replacement. The rubber ends on back of the walker drug, jerked and made loud noises. This made if difficult to use at all. I have hard floors so am also using the covers. What a difference! I recommend to all

Easy to install, work great and slide with the booties. Cuts down noise too.

These little ski feet are brilliant for Zimmer frames. They make moving around very much easier both on carpet and hard floors. Highly recommend.

Both my parents have walking frames, and both struggled with the pushing the frame over carpets. Now with these ski's it's no problem at all, well worth the money. They have made walking about so much easier. Easy to install, and sturdy.

I bought these for my uncle’s Walter he uses in the card home. One package seems to last about a year. Good quality and decent price. Happy with this product.
