Drive Medical Nitro Sprint Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat, Standard Height Lightweight Rollator with Large Wheels, Folding Rolling Walker, Walker Rollator with Seat, Red

Exactly what I required

Muy buen artículo

Apenas un par de semanas de uso, pero buen desempeño y muy práctico, solo lo siento un tanto debil al subir las varillas a la altura máxima de las empuñaduras.

Back up tell me what you're gonna do now. I got kind of punked with the first delivery rollator in an open box, and the rollator was stuck in the folded position. My return and replacement rollator request got processed quickly. Only hassle was taping closed the open box for shipping, and waiting in time window for porch pickup by UPS. Return got confirmed to me several days later. Movin’ on. My replacement Nitro Sprint rollator was delivered in a fully sealed box one day after the return pickup and two days after Santa consumed the milk and cookies I left for him under the tree in my home. The Drive bag was better quality and easier to zip compared to the bag that came with the rollator I had returned. It was somewhat stiff to unfold the replacement rollator for the first time, but I've been rollin’ rollin’ rollin’ ever since. Smooth steering requires both hands for precise maneuvering control which is great. Brakes work the way they should, and adjust well. The toe pedals are a little small but nonetheless can help stabilize the rear wheel while I'm pushing down on the handles to raise the front wheels up and over curbs and similar obstacles. All of the rollator adjustment features are effective and relatively easy to use. The seat is comfortable as is sitting on the folding handle. I always follow the extremely important safety warning to NEVER SIT AND ROLL. I'm glad I had also purchased the cup/phone holder accessory. It is real handy to have, and there are several places to attach the holder to the rollator. I like the bright red color of the frame I got. It makes the rollator very noticeable in the pedestrian mode of use. I find the quality of materials and construction to be top-notch, and the functionality of the rollator is superb. The rollator is worthy of the reasonable investment I made to improve my mobility and help prevent falls.

I have used an earlier model of this walker for years due to back pain.Sometimes I feel like the pain in my back is so bad I have to sit down immediately. It is nice to always have a chair with me. It is also nice for carrying boxes too. My husband recently needed a walker to prevent falls. I wasn't sure he would use it very much so I got him a less expensive smaller one from a different brand. Turned out he really liked it and felt safer using it. The problem was the wheels. They were about 5" in diameter and maybe an inch wide. The wheels got stuck on the threshold of our front door and in the crack at the front of the building elevator. He got very frustrated trying to shove the wheels over the obstructions. So I did a search for the brand of walker I have and found this one. He really likes it. The front wheels are big enough they roll right over the things his old walker got caught on. The hand grips can be adjusted for different heights but his tend to not stay where we set them. I have reset them twice and I noticed yesterday they had slipped again. I will have to see if there is something I can tighten. The brakes are good. The seat is comfortable but he does not use it very much. I like the bag on my older model better. Mine is rather rectangular and holds more. His is shaped like a large fanny pack and doesn't have mesh like mine does. You can't see what is in the bag as easily but some people may prefer that for privacy. I use the bag on mine all the time so I don't have to carry a purse. Both models have zippers on the bags but mine is bigger and easier to get into. I really like the way these rollators fold up. All you do is give a strong pull/jerk on the handle attached to the seat. The seat folds vertically and you can squeeze the sides of the seat together until it clicks and it locks in place to make it easier to lift up and put in the car. Then when you get it out you spread the sides of the seat until it locks in the open position. Very easy. I would recommend this brand to anyone looking for a good walker that rolls and has a comfortable seat, is easy to lift and stores in a narrow place.

Following is the initial review offered for this product. After a lot os use, I must say when eviewed originaly I had no ideqa what I was talking about. My rollator is very well made, looks better than most, is very comfortable to sit in and is easy to fold up. A bit heavy for some, I have no problem picking it up.. The brakes could not work any better and the wheels hold very well. Doubt if pneumatic tires would add anything positive. The only problem or shortcoming I have noticed is the seat back is fraying where the cloth and metal join. I doubt this will last another 6 months and am hoping a replacement part can be purchased. Love this walker, use it every day for at least an hour and have taken walks of up to 2 miles with it. The major problem I have with my Drive Medical Nitro Sprint Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat is the lack of a brake I can set while just sitting. Where I live seemingly ever street is at least a slight hill. When I stop to rest the rollator wants to roll. If I had a brake I could set at this time I'd be very happy. Folding the unit is not tough if you don't want the rollator to close tightly. I use a snap cord to tie things together when folding. A snap cord doesn't require knots or bows making it easier to use. The rollator came with a black plastic addition which snaps on somewhere. The instructions for this are not at all clear. I'm told to use "my smart phone" to access detailed instructions. Guess what? This dumb user doesn't have a smart phone so no detailed instructions. Now the good stuff. It comes assembled save for the little black plastic thingy. Hooray! It is very easy to adjust. A big hooray. I love walking distances again. I have no feeling of instability. I fell over with a basic walker more than once (have a brain based problem with balance). I have NO feeling of not being in complete command now. It is a bit heavy but I carry it up to a doctor's office on the second floor every week with no feeling of being challenged. Major thought about my Drive Medical Nitro Sprint Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat is I'm a fool for not purchasing it much sooner. I tested a number or rollators and I am certain I purchased the best for me.
