By J. Manly
If you are comparing this only to the hospital-issue plain aluminum tubing walker with small wheels on the front and no seat, it will look as though it's worth five stars. However, if you do your homework and see what else is available, you will have the opportunity to make a more informed choice. As a licensed social worker, I encourage clients to take a look at what's on the market, checking out at least three different models.The back rail on this walker is straight, rather than curved, which would make using the seat as a substitute chair a lot more comfortable. Its wheel asssembly is relatlively wimpy, perhaps explaining why the stated weight limit is 250 lbs. In comparison, the Drive Medical 750BK D-Lite Rollator, Midnight Blue, has a curved back, better wheel assembley, and supports up to 300 lbs--and it's a bit less expensive. Amazon carries that--and other--models, too.However, if the person who will use this is especially tall or heavy, there are more appropriate walkers/rollators available than either of these. Look for the words "tall" or "bariatric" in the description. There are also "junior" models suited for short, frail elders and disabled children.A final point: Amazon carries quite a few walkers/rollators, not all of which offer free super saver shipping. Be sure that you calculate the cost of shipping when making comparisons. But most of all, be sure that the model you are buying is suitably sized for the person who will use it.

By Sushi-n'Grits
Bought this for a 90-y-o mom, who needed an more stable alternative to a cane. She indicates that her neighbors in the retirement community call this walker her "Rolls Royce" as it has such nice features. I was impressed by the quality of the walker, the finish, and the attention paid to detail on both design and fabrication fronts. The only amendments we made to it were to add a bicycle light (as she uses it to walk to the dining room for dinner, often after dark) and some ID ornamentation to differentiate it from the literal parking lot of other walkers - none as nice as hers, I'm told. I'd buy this one again in a heartbeat - great walker, even more incredible at the price.

By Sally R.
This walker replaced a standard "tennis ball" walker for my mother-in-law. She loves it. So easy to use and maneuver, and she has weak wrists. The thumb supports are very nice. So easy to turn corners instead of the old "lift and place." The basket is nice for storage and it lifts out. Walker folds to put in car. A great purchase.
