CarexLightweight Folding Walker for Seniors, Portable Medical Walker with Adjustable Height, 30-37 Inches, Mobility Aid for Adults, Elderly, and Handicapped, Foldable, Stainless Steel Frame

Sturdy & strong. Helps me get around safely and independently. Helps getting up and down, can go up & down one step without help. Easy to put together, just a few pieces to snap together. Folds easily. Very light. Good price too. I thought I should mention a few things that make it easier for me to get around. I added wheels to the front and ski glides to the back. This was an inexpensive addition and helps me move a little faster while still maintaining balance. I talked about going up and down a step. This has been so helpful in maintaining my independence. Curbs obviously don’t have railings and I sometimes have to walk far to find a ramp. Steps sometimes don’t have a railing or often only have one which makes it difficult and unsafe when you are experiencing issues with pain, strength and/or balance. Now I can walk right up to the curb or step, put the walker up on the curb/step and climb up or put it down at ground level and step down and use the walker to support me like a railing. There are very helpful YouTube videos that helped me make sure I was doing this safely. I can also get in and out of my car by myself. I can push myself up onto the seat and use the steering wheel to help guide me into the car. The walker is so light that I can easily lift it in or out of the car by myself. I slide it in the car and place it upside down on the passenger side. It fits securely on the floor and I don’t have to worry about it sliding around and becoming dangerous or difficult for me to reach. Getting out is easier for me because my car is elevated a little bit and I can put the walker on the ground and lean on it to step down. I have used it in other people’s cars that are lower to the ground and I have needed help to pull myself up. I have also purchased a “door cane” that fits into the door latch and becomes a handle that gives you support to get in or out of the car. It is very helpful. This walker has also helped me in restrooms. In public restrooms one safety rail isn’t enough for me and most people don’t have a safety rail in their home bathroom. I found that carefully turning the walker around and pushing it all the way back against the toilet tank turns it into a safety rail. This allows me to safely sit and stand while holding on to the arms of the walker. I hope this helps someone, no matter which walker you choose. But I have had this walker for over a year now and it has remained strong and has allowed me to maintain my independence and safely navigate the challenges in my life.

Have been using for a week after Achilles surgery- am in a heavy cast and am non-weight-bearing for several weeks. Wanted something to give me some stability when going from the bed to the bathroom and it’s worked great for that- makes me feel safer than using my crutches. Also using it for something to hold onto getting up from sitting position and something to hold onto getting in/out of the shower. Feels pretty durable- wobbles just a little. Easily adjusted for my height. Hubs put it together in about 2 minutes with no instructions. So far so good. I’ve been using it for about 10 days. Pretty lightweight too which is nice. Grips on the handles are comfortable. Good grips on the feet as well. Overall I’m really happy with the purchase and it’s made surgery recovery much easier.

easy to build. its very sturdy i tested it before giving to my mother

A good unit. I would have given 5 stars except for two issues. First, I am 5'11" and the legs are not long enough to adjust to the height described in the instructions. When the legs were fully extended, the unit became significantly more wobbly. I lower the legs to the second highest setting which improved stability noticeably and was still sufficiently high to be comfortable. Second issue, one of the two release buttons to fold the sides is a bit sticky. I was able to fix it by bending the tab a touch with a screwdriver. The other side works perfectly. Neither of these issues are game breakers and I otherwise believe that this is a good design . It appears to be much stronger than the units that I saw being used by other patients in the ortho clinic.I bought the walker as I broke my ankle, need to be careful to bear any weight on it and was not fully comfortable on crutches. I am using the walker at home and find it much easier to get up from sitting than with crutches, feel a greater sense of stability as compared with crutches and just as easy (or easier) to move around. Well worth the cost for the benefits that I am getting.
