Drive Medical10266HD-BK Nitro Heavy Duty Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat, Black

Good quality heavy duty walker. Bought for my husband who sometimes has neurological issues with balance/mobility. Got it largely because the big wheels will go through slush in the parking lot at work, if he's not able to get the handicapped spot that day. It's easy to fold and carry in the back of the car. He's 6 feet tall and about 200 lbs now, so he didn't need the weight capacity so much as the solidness of it.I chose it because another friend had one, and after an airline damaged the front wheel, we found it easy to obtain and replace the parts ourselves. Now that friend has two - one to use in home territory and a slightly scratched up one with a replaced front wheel to take on airlines if he travels again.

I love this product because the item is very light and was easy for me to load in my truck also my car! It is easy for my husband to use and has a great seat on it! I have used it push my husband SHORT DISTANCES , when he is unable to make it to car. You are NOT to use it this way, but sometimes I have. It does good, but I Would NOT in place if a wheelchair for any great distance. Other than that I love it because it folds up flat and is very lite to lift/pick it up!

I love the handles can be raised. Sometimes I like leaning on the handles with forearms. With them raised I still need to bend a bit but not too bad. Easy to adjust handles for when walking or higher when shopping allowing me to look at shelves and use forearms comfortable sitting. Easy to fold and for me to lift in suv

I have owned a nitro for 5 years. When I first got it I was very happy and still would be if the seat had not stretched out and is now 5" lower and hangs like a hammock. I have to put a pillow on it to bring it up to new level. Not sure why they can't use a material for seat that does not stretch out. Seat belt material comes to mind. It is hard to find a rollator that gives you hip room and this one does. Most 300+ lb weight limits still only have 17.5 inches between handle bars . Does not make sense to have same width as rollators for folks under 250lb. More weight, more hip room needed. Unfortunately, last 5 years has also diminished my ability to lift it's 23lbs (sure it is more) bulky frame into my car, so I am looking for a new rollator with a solid seat and lighter more compact frame. This is a beast to load and have many dings in my paint trying to get it in.

My Dad has had his Drive Medical 10266HD-BK Nitro Heavy Duty Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat since July 2021. Dad is 6'7" and around 280-300lbs - he's a big guy. Dad also has neuropathy that has weakened his legs tremendously which means that when he sits, he almost plops. This Rollator has withstood his way of sitting for 2 years plus. He's also gotten to where he can no longer stand without holding on to something, and this thing has done the trick. He resisted when we got it for him, but now he'll admit that he's grateful for it because it's allowed him to keep his independence. He can still load it in the back of his SUV. It gets him around so he can go to Little League games, high school football games, his evening walks, and just about anywhere he wants to go. The only time we've seen an issue is on a gravel or a really uneven path, and we've never tried sand or soft ground - it would be cool though if Drive would make one of these with knobby bicycle tires and heavier shock absorbers...hint hint! The only other thing he's had an issue with are the brakes, but all it took to fix them was a little adjustment. We've not had to replace the brakes yet (2 years after purchase). This Rollator has extended our Dad's independence and his ability to get around without the worry of a fall.

I love this walker as it allows me to do the things I love including filling my multiple bird feeders, create and care for a large container garden and put my 2 cats in their carrier and take them out to their catio in the back yard. I am 67yr old and have a painful knee and ankle and am quite overweight. I got the walker several years ago after having several falls. This walker has kept me safe. And it makes walking so much easier!!! I like that it closes side to side and is easy to lift into my trunk and easy to it up 2 steps into my home. With the larger seat width it is a very tight fit thru my bedroom doorway, but all I need to do is pull up on the seat handle just a bit and easily get thru the doorway. Also so many walkers are rated for 300 or 400 lbs but the seats are only 15 to 18 inches wide. There is no way my butt and hips would fit in those. I can comfortably sit in this walker as needed to rest while walking or when I take myself or my dad to doctor appointments and I don't need to worry if I can sit in their waiting room chairs. This winter I was lucky and spent several months in Florida and was able to trim and weed my father's yard and even go to the beach or parks and walk on nature trails. The large wheels make it easier to get around on grass or well kept mostly flat trails. This walker keeps me safe and allows me to do the things I enjoy which keeps me happier!!!

This is the second one we have purchased. First one lasted for 6 years but one brake just broke. We will have it replaced so we have an indoor and outdoor car rollator.DISLIKE - It seemed locked shut when it arrived. VERY FRUSTRATING TO HAVE EXPENSIVE NEW EQUIPMENT NOT WORK. We could not open it. Though it was the lift handle attachments. It was not. After much examination we realized the problem was that the bar had hooked onto another piece. We had to knock it free. When getting new equipment we do not want to force or break anythibg.
