Medline Premium Empower Folding Mobility Rollator Walker with Memory Foam Seat, Black & Blue, 300 lb. Weight Capacity, 8” Wheels, Cupholder, Rolling Walker for Mobility Impairment, Adjustable Handles

This is an excellent walker. It's very sturdy and the height of the seat makes it easy to sit and stand. The assembly instructions are clear and thorough and assembly was easy, even for a non-mechanical person like me. This was a replacement for my old walker which had a broken part after six years of daily use. I was happy enough with the old one to replace it with the same item. If I need another one six years from now, I'll buy it again.

I bought this for my 94-year-old father. He recently moved into assisted living. He'd been using one of those inexpensive front-wheel aluminum walkers with a pair of tennis balls on the back to act as skids. He's mentally sharp as a tack but has difficulty walking, especially with losing stamina. He can only walk a few dozen feet before he needs a break and is hunting for a chair. One morning at breakfast I saw this walker parked outside the dining room, and I was very impressed with how rugged and well made it looked. So, I snapped a photo of it and did a Google image search to find it. This walker has made a world of difference for him. He's out and zipping around the building a lot more. He uses the seat to take breaks when he's tired, and the seat doubles as a table if he needs to carry something. We reviewed the "correct" way to use a rollator-walker to ensure he was safe. I found a really good video on Youtube called "How to use a walker with a seat the RIGHT way". It's by "Your PT Guy". I highly recommend it. He's funny, and he goes over everything you need to know not to get hurt. I think the only negatives I have for this rollator are that it is heavy and awkward to lift when folded. To fold it, lift the handle on the underside of the seat, and the frame folds together with the front and rear wheels coming together. It's like a folding dining chair. The handles also fold inward. But it's still big and kind of awkward. This is more an issue for me or whoever he is traveling with, not so much for him, as he will never lift it into a trunk. I don't mind, but I could see an older, petite woman struggling with it. Another thing I like is that the wheels are solid rubber. That, combined with the weight of it, helps it hold position on the floor when the parking breaks are engaged. Again, this makes it feel safer and more stable.

My 82 year old Mom already has a Drive Medical Nitro Rollator Walker that she uses inside of her home, but we wanted to get her a second walker for use outside of the home in order to keep her Nitro unit clean. This Medline walker was priced right and had a coupon as well, so based upon the good reviews we purchased one. It arrived well packaged and undamaged, and all of the wheels and handgrips were wrapped in separate plastic bags to protect them during shipping. The instructions were clear, but all I really needed for assembly was the picture as all of the non-attached components were color-coded so they would not be mixed up. After assembly I had Mom test drive it and she was very impressed. The wheels are slightly smaller than the Nitro unit, but they are still big enough for stability while going over uneven ground. The brakes work well and the walker has a solid feel to it. I like the padded seat and drink holder features that her more expensive Nitro doesn't have. The only downside is that when folding the unit for transport the handle under the seat doesn't always fold the unit and will lift the seat up instead. But overall I'm quite impressed with the quality of this walker for the very reasonable price and I would buy it again.

Many features for the price. It is adjustable, reversible seat, large under seat storage, and 8 inch wheels. I only gave it a 4 because of a few issues. Assembly was easy except for a brake handle assembly part that was loose in the box. the other one was fine. A call to the 800 Help Desk was helpful. The storage bag / seat bag access release lever does not properly set over half the time without a strong and deliberate push. Folding the Rollator is difficult due to the seat latching issue above. Also the cup holder needs to be about 1/2 to 3/4 inch wider so it can hold an average sized sport container.

When my mom's Nova Cruise Deluxe rollator started to show wear & tear, I started looking for a new walker for her. Nova changed their product and it is definitely more flimsy than my mom's version. Plus, I was finding I am needing to push her in the walker more often, as she gets tired more easily at this point. It is awkward pushing her with her body facing me. Then, I saw someone using this Medline at Johns Hopkins Hospital and stopped to ask them about it. They gave it glowing reviews and I felt fortunate to have gotten to see it first hand. I ordered one here on Amazon and it arrived quickly and well packaged. It is a very heavy duty walker, and heavier as a result. Initially it is difficult to fold up, as the mechanics need time to break in. It is true that sometimes the seat will pull open when you go to pull it into the folded position. This is more often a result of not grabbing the handle to fold it, catching the bottom of the seat instead. It comes with a built in, low profile cup holder that folds up flat. I like the pouch/bag area under the seat, but it does take some getting used to if you have had a front basket, like my mom did. Their is a nice tray under the seat as well to hold pens, meds, keys, etc... A handy feature. The wheels are all the same large size and make it easy to push on most surfaces. The brakes work well, and the locking feature. Although, again, the locking mechanism is tight initially but gets easier with use. The best part is being able to instantly rotate the back rest to the other side so mom can sit facing forward while I push her. I made a strap with Velcro ends. It stores easily in the pouch and I can wrap the ends around the front cross bar to allow her to rest her feet on the strap if needed, while I push the rollator. I also make a custom cover and applied custom decals so she has a one of a kind rollator. She loves it! Highly recommend.

This is a great walker! I bought this for my 83 yo mother to get her out walking more. She loves it and so do I. The main deciding factor was the storage situated under the seat for easy access. It is not only spacious but has a removable tote for valuables. Too many walkers have a smaller storage pack positioned on the front of the walker making access difficult. The colors stand out and we appreciate the reflectors for safety. The breaks are easy to lock and unlock. We like the sporty look as opposed to a "medical" look. It is sturdy and gives my mom more confidence. Assembly was easy, too. The only small negative is that the beverage holder is only big enough to hold a cup of coffee on the go or a small water bottle. Not a huge deal but would be nice if it was a little bit bigger to hold her regular water bottle. Although some reviewers are frustrated that it is too wide for doorways, we bought this for outdoor use, not inside the house. I want to get my mom out walking more on paved trails, sidewalks, and shopping mall walking during poor weather.

I bought this walker for my fiancee who has trouble balancing and walking. We received it quickly and it is very easy to assemble. The directions are pretty clear and each wheel has a colored dot that you match to the colored dot on the Walker frame making assembly even easier. I'm going to list the Pros and Things to Consider (So far there are no cons) Pros: - Heavy-duty. The frame, seat, wheels and brake handles are all well built and sturdy. No worries of anything bending or snapping. - Stable. This is (in my opinion) a heavier in weight than most other walkers. It's also wider at the base, just under 27" wide at the rear wheels. The weight plus the wider stance makes this a stable walker. The old walker was lighter and narrower. It would sometimes tip over if you hit a small rock or bump. This walker is a beast and hasn't tipped over once, no matter what it hits. Wheels - It has 8" wheels which is night and day compared to the old walker that had 6" wheels. They are a softish rubber. The walker is quiet on tile and the rubber wheels don't pick up pebbles or dirt from outdoors. You should be safe going outside and coming back in without tracking in dirt. Brakes - The breaks work great. I think because of the 8" wheels it has more grip when you apply the breaks. Even on dirt, my fiancee has much better control going down slight inclines because the breaks actually help in control. Outdoors - The walker does great on dirt and grass. It's also great on uneven terrain. Seat - The seat is well mounted and is sturdy. Its larger than most walker seats, I believe its 16" wide with 2" of cushion. Step In. The step in feature is great. The seat lifts up and the storage bag slides forward giving you room to step in closer to the cabinets. Note: This will depend on how much you have in the storage bag. If its full, it may not close enough to appreciate the step in feature. Easy to Fold. You can fold the walker by sliding the two yellow sections down and lifting up on the handle under the seat. Traveling. If you reverse the assembly instructions, you can fit the walker into a large suitcase. Disassembled, you will need approximately 20" x 22" x 9" of space. Things to Consider: - Weight. This walker is heavier than most other walkers. (17lbs). However, it makes it very sturdy for those that need assistance for balancing as well as walking. It may be difficult for some to lift to get up steps or curbs. - Width. The widest part of the walker is the rear wheels measuring in at just under 27". It fits in standard doorways, BUT please measure your doorways to be safe. Some older homes and manufactured homes have smaller doorways that might pose a problem. Last Note: My fiancee is 4'11". With the handlebars and wheels at their lowest level, it is a perfect height for her. We would recommend this walker to most anyone. The only two major things to consider is the weight and width.

It was a very nice product, but it was too small for my body. If you’re a small person, I think it would be great, but I am a big person not that I’m talking about big wide.

I purchased this not because of my age, which is 65, but because of five open knee surgeries on my left knee, and the fact that my knee is now deformed. I’ve been walking with a limp for the past 10 years and finally gave up on walking with a cane. Believe me when I say, I have looked at dozens of these Rollators and finally settled on this one. This one is very lightweight. Not heavy and cumbersome like some of the others. Now maybe a heavier Rollator is what some people prefer, but not me. When you’re out walking with it, I don’t have to fight with it to get it to go up and down off sidewalks. The brakes work very easily and yes, the manual brakes are easy to apply. But I particularly like the big wide seat to this Rollator. It is entirely in one piece and not a split seat like some of them. It is fairly easy to collapse, and then place in the trunk of our SUV. And yes, there is some storage underneath the actual seat itself. All in all, I am very happy with it. I like the ease in which you can adjust the height to the strap at your back when you are seated. I like the rubber hand grips on it, which also have a thumb rest, that I appreciate very much. I like the rubber handle grips on it which also have a thumb rest, that I appreciate very much. Basically, I took a chance on this one, having not seen it prior to purchasing it, and I’m happy I bought it.

Excelente!! Muy recomendable, nos fue muy útil para mi mamá porque es de altura pequeña y operada de sus rodillas y gracias a que se ajusta a la altura cumplió las expectativas. Estéticamente muy bonito. Lo recomiendo al 100

This rollater walker looked a little intimidating at first but really was easy to put together. I put this together myself actually in about 20 minutes. The brakes are nice and tight and lock into place. The wheels are large and easy to maneuver. The seat is made of memory foam and comfy to sit on. I am 6 feet tall and was able to adjust the chair for me without any trouble. Very good sturdy walker for the price. I would recommend this walker to anyone with mobility issues

Mejor de lo que nos imaginamos para mi papá

For the price I am quite happy. Takes a bit to assemble but instructions are clear. I really like the large wheels (much bigger than they look in the photo). It is a bit heavier but is manageable. Water bottle holder is completely dumb! doesn’t hold any bottle. ** DO watch the video and see how to sit properly.
