Standard Walker with Wheels

Here’s my personal experience setting up and using the Drive Medical deluxe two button folding walker that I just got from Amazon. And I’ve included my own pictures too, to show you what I’m talking about. First, I liked that this Drive Medical folding walker came in flat box that was only 4” deep, which made it really easy to lift, carry up steps and into the house. It was also easy to open the box and slide out the walker. The walker is folded flat, out of the box, and the front wheels and back leg extensions are separated into plastic bags. Putting the legs on this Drive Medical walker was much easier than I thought. And I really love that I put the whole walker together without any tools! You just slide on the front legs (with wheels), and back legs, onto the existing walker legs. And you can adjust this walkers height by aligning the holes in the leg extensions with the locking button on each of the existing walker legs. Really, it was very easy to attach all 4 legs and adjust it to my height. As you can see, I’m pretty short, so I set my walker legs to the #2 position. Now, I gotta say, I was worried about how this walker would fit through my doorways & hallways. A few of my hallways are narrow and I was worried that this walker would be just too wide. BUT, here’s a very helpful solution I really want to share because I think it can help a lot of people: when I was reading reviews of different walkers, I found a great tip on [...] that showed me how to reduce the width of my walker by just switching the wheels! It’s a really EASY fix: just take the front left & right legs, with wheels, and reverse them. And you’ll see that your wheels are now sitting inside the frame of the walker. Not on the outside. By switching the position of the front wheels, I cut down my walker width by almost 4”! And now my hallways are not a problem. I found this easy fix on [...] I tried out the push button release, at the top of the walker, to unfold the two sides. I was happy to see that the red release button was easy to press down. I have a little neuropathy (numbness) in my fingers, so I have to avoid buttons or levers that are hard to press down. But I didn’t have any problems using the red release button on this walker to fold & unfold it. This Drive Medical Walker is light, but it still feels very sturdy to me. The 5” wheels roll smoothly and I don’t see that the wheels have made any marks on my floors. (That’s important to me.) The hand grips on this walker are cushioned and I think anyone would like the way they feel. I’m going to try this walker for a while, and if the neuropathy in my fingers flares up, I can just get inexpensive, even more cushy walker handgrips covers to help. All in all, I really love this foldable walker and I would recommend it to any friend of mine. I guess, the only thing that I think could be improved would be to clearly mark the legs with wheels to show that they should be put on the front of the walker. When I first put on all the legs, I put the wheels on the back. Wrong. It was my mistake, I know, and I could easily fix it, but I think the directions/packaging could have been a little bit clearer. All in all, I think this walker is a winner. In my opinion, it’s a great mix of quality & price.

This is a basic, no frills walker that is lightweight, easy to put together and seems sturdy and safe. If your intended use is post-surgery rehab, it’s all the walker you need. If you live alone I would suggest getting a tray for it to carry things from room to room. It’s a decent walker, especially at this price point. I’m happy with my purchase.

A walker is not a sign of age. It is simply a sign of your current ability and the need for assistance. I just had a partial knee replacement and I bought this two days before my surgery because I didn't know I needed one. It came the next day and my daughter helped me decorate it before taking it to the hospital for my surgery. Seeing as I'm not gonna use it long-term, I didn't wanna spend 60 to 80 bucks on a walker. It's sturdy it folds up like it's supposed to it gets the job done.

Nice and light weight folding walker suitable for home use. It could be easily folded and unfolded. I wish it has 4 wheels so that it won't scratch the floor when used. The size of the walker is perfect to move from room to room for indoor use but it is only good on wood floor not on carpet. But with only 2 wheels, it might scratch the floors for long time usage.

Very light weight, easy to fold, easy to assemble. Nice grip handles, great for early morning wake up when your body feels stiff, I use this to help me move around until my stiffness starts to lessen. With age joint pains show up unannounced, especially hip/leg pains and this walker helps take the full load off the pained leg. also good for walking around the store or going where you have to stand for a long time.

This walker is sturdy, lightweight, and very easy to fold for storage or travel. It provides excellent support and feels stable while walking. Assembly was quick, and the quality is excellent. Highly recommend!

Solidly built, but lightweight rolling walker which helps considerably in maintaining a stable upright position while allowing the user to feel safe while walking. We had a walker without the wheels and a Physical Therapist, upon seeing my wife struggling, suggested we move to one with wheels. Great recommendation and my wife quickly started walking much better and faster. She said that although the wheels made her a little uncomfortable in the beginning, she quickly became used to them and now it's the only walker she will use. It folds up to a convenient size and fits in the back of our SUV with no trouble. It's good value for money and I highly recommend it.

This walker has been helping my wife a lot around the house and has made moving around safer and more comfortable for her. It was easy to put together, feels lightweight without feeling flimsy, and folds up quickly when we need to move it or store it away. The height adjustment worked well and the grips feel comfortable even during longer use. For indoor use on hardwood and tile floors it glides smoothly and gives good support and stability. The only reason I’m giving a more balanced review is because it’s not the best option for rough outdoor surfaces. On uneven sidewalks, gravel, or cracked pavement it can feel a little awkward and not as smooth as indoors. For inside the house though, it does exactly what we needed it to do and has been very helpful overall.

My dad is 86, has weak legs and hip. He could walk but could also lose balance or get weak knees all of a sudden. This works really well, and it's nicely constructed. It's so nice, I'm likely going to keep it for myself to use when I have weak knees.
