Drive Medical Nitro Sprint Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat, Standard Height Lightweight Rollator with Large Wheels, Folding Rolling Walker, Walker Rollator with Seat, Red

Over a few years I have been a heavy user of walkers. Using them for transporting shopping, laundry, charity shop stuff etc. Also on rougher terrain at National Trust places etc. I have had seven walkers and three of them have have been Drive Nitro’s. Friends have had six. They win on having concealed brakes and very comfortable seat.The latest Sprite has updated its braking system which on the old version worn the tyres down quicker. Although I have managed to buy new back wheels in the past. My only complaint is please could they do more colours as with just red and black we get them mixed up when we meet up!

Muy buen artículo

I have used an earlier model of this walker for years due to back pain.Sometimes I feel like the pain in my back is so bad I have to sit down immediately. It is nice to always have a chair with me. It is also nice for carrying boxes too. My husband recently needed a walker to prevent falls. I wasn't sure he would use it very much so I got him a less expensive smaller one from a different brand. Turned out he really liked it and felt safer using it. The problem was the wheels. They were about 5" in diameter and maybe an inch wide. The wheels got stuck on the threshold of our front door and in the crack at the front of the building elevator. He got very frustrated trying to shove the wheels over the obstructions. So I did a search for the brand of walker I have and found this one. He really likes it. The front wheels are big enough they roll right over the things his old walker got caught on. The hand grips can be adjusted for different heights but his tend to not stay where we set them. I have reset them twice and I noticed yesterday they had slipped again. I will have to see if there is something I can tighten. The brakes are good. The seat is comfortable but he does not use it very much. I like the bag on my older model better. Mine is rather rectangular and holds more. His is shaped like a large fanny pack and doesn't have mesh like mine does. You can't see what is in the bag as easily but some people may prefer that for privacy. I use the bag on mine all the time so I don't have to carry a purse. Both models have zippers on the bags but mine is bigger and easier to get into. I really like the way these rollators fold up. All you do is give a strong pull/jerk on the handle attached to the seat. The seat folds vertically and you can squeeze the sides of the seat together until it clicks and it locks in place to make it easier to lift up and put in the car. Then when you get it out you spread the sides of the seat until it locks in the open position. Very easy. I would recommend this brand to anyone looking for a good walker that rolls and has a comfortable seat, is easy to lift and stores in a narrow place.

This kept me mobile whilst recovering from surgery. Sturdy and stylish.

Apenas un par de semanas de uso, pero buen desempeño y muy práctico, solo lo siento un tanto debil al subir las varillas a la altura máxima de las empuñaduras.
