At minute 3:45 Brad sits BUT he does it wrong. If you turn your body around, if you're weak, wobbly or tired that's a sure fire way to lose your balance & fall. I discovered that with my Rollator & luckily caught myself. My Dad wasn't so lucky. The fall broke his back. People sit when they need to rest or when standing still becomes too painful. They're feeling weak or hurt so more vulnerable to falling. Turning around on wobbly legs is risky. The correct way to sit is to remain stationary & move the walker around you. As you swing it so you can sit, put the brakes on before you sit. To resume walking, stand & roll the walker around you to in front of you. Practice it Bob & Brad. You quickly get used to spinning around you & can actually do it faster than turning your body rather than the walker. My doctor told me a lot of people fall while trying to sit down. He told me how to do it right (after my Dad fell). My problem with my Rollator, and I think it'd be a problem with this taller one too is as the pain of walking increases I put more & more weight on my arms & hands. I have a weak arm from a long ago injury so the bulk of weight affects the good arm/ shoulder. And then my "good" shoulder hurts - like bursitis or muscle cramps. It takes days to recover. Is there anything I can do? Thanks.

I live in senior housing. Even with walkers like this, the elderly won’t stand up straight, even though they can. This throws off the center of gravity and causes the walker to turn over since their upper body weight is being supported by the arm rests. I have seen this time and again.

You may think people can stand straight but you're probably wrong. I start out standing correctly but the further I walk, the worse the pain. So I lean over, more & more. And my one shoulder gets injured from bearing my weight. So, I don't go out much anymore. I've never seen a walker turn over while being used. People are more likely to fall trying to sit then walking, even leaning over.

that sounds very weird to me. I've got a 3 wheeled normal walker and that doesn't tip up. I don't see how a 4 wheel walker can tip up in the way you say. Having your upper body supported is far less likely to cause the walker to tip. I would be looking at the floors and the outside grounds of where you live because maybe there are places where it is uneven and that is what is happening.

I have a heavy duty model of that brand. Holds up to 450 lbs or 500 that was on the box. 200 dollars from Amazon. It has more hard sided basket with a padded seat cushion. I figured out to stand more upright on these you have to adjust the hand grips about as out as you can get. Then your forced to stand closer to the walker.

I used a safety roller with platforms a few years back for hyperekplexia and ataxia. I miss it... Can't wait for my new toy!) Adjusting the brake cables is exactly the same process as for a bike.

I am waiting for my upright walker to arrive. They weigh about 20 pounds (some are heavier at 30 pounds which is somewhat ridiculous in my view). I have a truck with a canopy. I am going to have to put mine in the back of my truck under the canopy. I have a telescopic ramp which was for my dogs originally. So what I intend to do, is have the ramp up at the back of the truck (the ramp is fairly light) and wheel the walker already folded, into the back of the truck using the ramp. I can then use the ramp to roll it back down when I want to get it out. This will save me lifting it. I do have a normal 3 wheel walker, but the strain on my arms and wrists is such that I cannot walk very far with it. I am hoping the new walker is going to allow me to walk much further and get more exercise. My hope is that once I've built up my stamina and learned to walk upright again, I may be able to ditch it altogether.

Have bad knees and a bad back. My knees got worse over the years. When I found myself moving around my home by holding onto walls and furniture I researched canes and ordered a pair of quad canes with offset handles. They are a help, but not as much as I'd like. Also, my knees continued to get worse. After several years of using the canes, I researched walkers, and ordered a rolling walker. It's important to get one in the right size, which I did. I've had it several years now, and I love it. If I were to get a new one, I would prefer a forearm rolling walker, but it will probably be years before they make a model in my size (short & fat) in the American fold style (front to back). The Euro style (side folding) is being pushed a lot, but I hate the seats on them. The American folding style rolling walkers have better seats. Fortunately, there's nothing wrong with my current rolling walker, so I can wait a while before I have to buy a new one. I also still use my canes in narrower areas. Whether you use a regular rolling walker or a forearm rolling walker, they are great! Mine helps me move around better than I can with my canes, and with less pain. My legs don't dangle when I sit on the seat because it's the right floor to seat height for me. The seat is wide enough for me to walk between the handles, so I don't have to bend over at an angle that would strain my knees, back, and shoulders. That also helps me maintain proper control of my rolling walker. Definitely, getting the right size is absolutely important. I do recommend rolling walkers for people with mobility or other health issues.🤗

So I can tell you quite categorically they are in the USA. Maybe they have a UK subsidiary, and you chose the wrong website.

Are these wheels good at going over slight lips/bumps? Like a bit of a difference in height between sidewalk segments? And is there a walker/rollator combo version or something? My mother gets tired quickly but she still wants to be able to get out & go places. She can walk herself with her walker to the bathroom & back, but long distances, she wants to be able to sit & if we go to a store for example, I can push her around (pun intended :D ) the one we have currently, the wheels suck :/ she's literally fallen out of it once & almost fell out many times while I push her around, all because it gets stuck on a tiny little bump in a sidewalk. I now tell her to lean back far & push back to keep her from falling out if we need go over a tiny lip somewhere.

I took mine across bad sidewalk bumps which I couldn't 9reviosly do with my old walker. It's amazing. It walked pretty far and over uneven terrain multiple times, whereas my old walker absolutely couldn't even go over a sidewalk crack. I have the elenker and I highly recommend it! The best thing since I'm wobbly some days because of Huntingtons disease, I don't have to worry about holding my hand on the old style of walker and possibly hurt my wrist because my wrist and whole arm are in the sleeve like area for holding. And when I would start to fall, I could very easily catch myself with all my arm in there. The only problem with my version is it doesn't really fold but my mom is always with me when I need to put it in the car. There's a very expensive version that does fold but this was way less and the only difference is it can't fold. Mine came with a little bag instead of a basket but you can put your purse directly over the armholder, I even took it shopping it holds a lot.
