Drive Medical RTL10266BK-H Nitro Aluminum Rollator, Hemi Height, 10 Inch Casters, 1 Count (Pack of 1)

I looked long and hard at rollaters for my 89 year old mom. Not only did I want the BEST for mom, cause, well, she’s my MOM, but I also knew it was going to be a hard sell as this was her first. I had only just gotten her to start using a cane a few months before, but it wasn’t cutting it, from a safety standpoint. She lives in an assisted living, and I think that even though many of her friends use these, it was a point of pride for her to NOT have one (stubborn as a mule, she is). We started off with the petite (mom is 5’2”) but it was too short so we swapped for the regular - just right. Arm length matters! She did, indeed, balk at first, but OMG, all of her pals swooned over it so she got on board real fast! Everyone tells her that she has the “Cadillac” of rollators! And I concur. Not only does it look sleek (I put flame decals on it) and well built (because it is), it has no cables to snag or get in the way and is soooo easy for her to operate. The “foot step” to maneuver up stairs is a great add-on. I put orange tape on it so that it stands out (her vision is very bad). She enjoys the seat, says it’s comfy, and the storage bag is her favorite feature. She can keep sunglasses, visor, lotion, a snack, Kleenex, all her essentials, packed and at the ready. It folds like a dream - easy to store in her narrow hall and even fits in my tiny trunk where some of her friends do not (I play cheauffer at times). She can easily fold it up/ unfold it herself when she goes to a class or the dining hall. The big wheels mean she can take it through the grass to get to the picnic tables. All these features add up to one thing - she uses it - she’s safer! She calls it her “truck”. It’s built like one (although it’s amazingly light). After 6 months, I can say, very, very pleased.

(Continued from Mom): And snow! And grass! And mud! And gravel! And of course, on house floors and concrete! And the bag is fairly roomy! And it folds side to side, so I can fold it partway to get through narrow store aisles, etc! And it’s built for my height! (I’m 5’0”, and I got the Hemi style.)I sat on it outside for an hour today, and it was quite comfortable. It feels extremely stable, well-balanced, and very sturdy, which is good since I weigh 220 lbs and I fall a lot. My 80-lb dog can’t pull it over when he walks with me, whether I’m walking or stop to sit on it. The brakes work very well, both rolling and parking. It’s not super easy to lift into and out of my car trunk (my muscles are not in the best shape), but I can manage it without help.I know this sounds like I work for the company’s PR department, but I really cannot say enough good things about this device. I researched dozens of rollators, and I was convinced by reading many of the reviews on Amazon, as well as several websites of Best Rollators of 2023. I’m an engineer, so I know good design and construction, and this is both. It was well worth every penny. I expect this product to last for many years. I’m so pleased!I only have 2 complaints, and both are trivial: (1) the cane holder and cup holder accessories are sold separately. They appear to be very flimsy plastic, and this is borne out by their reviws. I think they were made by a different company. I’ll have to rig up something else, which will be tricky, as the structural bars on the Drive are rectangular, not tubular. (2) the Hemi (short) size only comes in black. The Standard and Tall sizes come in black, red, or white. I was hoping for bright blue or purple. Story of my vertically-challenged life. Sigh.TLDR: This device is fantastic. Run - do not walk - and buy it! You won’t be disappointed.

Sturdy. Easy to maneuver in tight spaces. Comfortable seat with vertical adjusting back.I don't need it anymore after my very successful Knee replacement but I still use it when I walk my large dog who tends to pull when she pulls too hard every once in a while, I just let go of the roller and it follows her and scares her so she doesn't pull again for a while.

I got this for my aunt for Christmas, she said that it’s amazing.Looks like a well made walker

This is a nice walker, easy to use, easy to collapse and not too heavy. Biggest issue is the seat height is not adjustable. I would not purchase it again.
