Helavo 3 Wheel Rollator Walker for Seniors, 3 x More Stable, 8" Wheels - Ultra Lightweight Foldable Narrow Walker for Small Spaces, Aluminum Three Wheel Mobility Aid with Height Adjustable Handles

I have breathing issues and tire easily. I have a 4-wheel steady walker, but it’s too heavy for me to pack in the car, so I decided to get a light walker I can take with me to walk from the parking lot to doctor’s office. Helavo 3 Wheel Rollator Walker weighs 11 lb so I can easily lift it to move to and from the car. It fits in the back seat.The walker came nicely packed in a box. It was easy to assemble without tools, and the design is impressively intuitive (a rare case nowadays). It has the handles with adjustable height, hand brakes (I don't foresee using them), a nylon bag (roomy and light). It folds and unfolds easier than my umbrella.Now, here is something to remember when getting this type of walker:- It’s light-weight, which makes it less stable. A disabled person who needs serious support while walking would be better off getting a stable heavy duty 4-wheel walker.- 3-wheel design makes this walker lighter and easier to maneuver, however it also makes it easier to tip over when making sharp turns. It's a nature of such configuration, not a flaw. The user needs to be aware of it and make the turns slowly.- At no time this walker should be used for support while getting out of the car or standing up from seating position! It will tip over and cause you to fall. Again, it's the price we pay for the lightness of the item.- The walker has hand brakes, but no parking brakes (some people expect to have them forgetting that this is a small collapsible appliance). Do not leave it unattended on an incline.This walker is well-suitable for my goals. It provides a light support, a step up from a cane. I give it 5 stars.

This is a gift for my 88-year-old mother. She’s still very independent, but she doesn’t feel completely secure walking alone in open areas with just her cane. She’s really pleased with the new walker—it’s compact yet has large wheels, is lightweight and easy to maneuver, folds up nicely, and even has a spacious pocket. Her only note is that the parking brake is a bit stiff to engage, but we think it’ll loosen up with a few days of use.

We got this for our older parent who lives with us and we're very happy with how sturdy it is and how easy it was to assemble. He has a larger walker that he uses outside the house but this is just the right size for him to use at home to maneuver around tighter spaces.

It is a little heavier then I would likely

Easy to assemble, lightweight and extremely maneuverable. Does NOT have a locking brake, though all the information lists this feature. I emailed the company (the only place I could find to communicate my problem) but got no response.

My headline is to let you know this is a real review & I'm not trying for any freebies. I now have 4 three wheel rollators &6 four wheelers. This Helavo is my latest. My other 3 wheelers are a Vive Mobility, 2 Drive Medical & I forget what the others are. I'm 89, recovered stroke victim, almost no use of left hand/arm, so all assembly must be done one handed.This Helavo 3 wheeler (actually 4 wheels) is well made, very sturdy, a quality product. It's approx 2 in. WIDER than ANY of the others, so it's a problem getting through narrow doors. Once the lock bar limbers up with use or a drop of oil, I can just partially collapse it to get in my bathroom.Assembly was not bad. I started going by the instructions, but just looking at the pictures on Amazon told me everything I needed. I did have to use my de-burring tool to scrape the insides of the plastic collars where the parts slip together because,as received, I couldn't make them go together. A reviewer said they need to supply some zip ties to keep the brake cables from hanging out. But if you look at the picture, note that they run between the frame & the bag. Each handle assembly has to be treaded between the frame & bag during assembly. No zip ties needed. At 1st, I thought it didn't have brake locks because pushing down wouldn't lock them. But you just have to push real hard the 1st few times.It felt heavy to me. I thought the claimed weight ((12#) was off,, but I weighed it & actual wt, is 11.2 #.If you need as light as possible, the Vive Mobility is is only 9.6 #, very stable, & high quality. If you need stability, this Helavo, with it's 2" extra width & double front wheel has a lot better lateral stabilty. I haven't used it on slopes yet. It has hard plastic tires?? The others all have hard rubber tires. So far, traction is good on my carpet, tile, linoleuum,,, & concrete garage floor.Add on 11/6/24 : The 2" wider than other 3 wheelers is a pain. I'm finding that there are a lot more places than my bathroom where it won''t fit.

Exactly what I needed. I gave an older mobile home and needed a walker that could fit into the hallways and through the doors. It shrinks and then can be reset to the original width with ease.

Very easy to walk with very easy to use
