Medline Premium Empower Rollator Walker with Seat, Folding Rolling Walker with 8-inch Wheels, Silver

I recently purchased this walker for my 83-year-old mother, who is 5'2". After adjusting everything to the lowest setting, it works perfectly for her. However, if you are shorter than 5', this might not be the right walker for you.I've found it to be very sturdy, although the handles do rattle a bit, it doesn't compromise the walker's stability. One of the features I particularly appreciate, which isn't common in rollators, is the movable seat. This allows my mom to step into the walker when she's near a sink, reducing her risk of falling, which was a problem before when she had to move the entire walker. Additionally, because she is shorter, she can sit and rest briefly on our walks by using the backrest in reverse when she gets tired.While the doorways at her assisted living facility are ADA compliant, it's worth noting that the walker didn't fit through the bathroom door at my home. On a positive note, I found it easier to fit this walker into the trunk of my Honda Civic compared to her previous, smaller one. The arms of the walker fold in, creating a slimmer profile for trunk storage.Overall, I'm very satisfied with this purchase for my mom.

Got it for my father who's nearly 90 years old. While he's relatively new to walkers, he really likes this one over the couple he is used earlier. It makes both him and my mother very happy that he can stop and rest instead of needing to look for a place or limit where he goes in fear of no seating. He's got the Locking brakes down as a good habit, so it never rolls away from him. My mom calls it his Mercedes Walker. We drive really junk cars, so that might not be appropriate reference for some people

The rollator came in great condition and is really useful to help my dad get around!

Nice Rollator, but one part was off, had to return item. The eturn was easy.

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.

It's not quite what I expected, but it will do. The cons:-Day-glo yellow everywhere (although you can swap the bolts with black ones if you already have a rollator--they'll probably fit).-The mechanism for folding the handles in is cumbersome. You have to grasp the large yellow mechanism and pull down to release the latch, but the angle and height of the mechanism makes that difficult to do.-It is heavier than you think it will be. My larger heavy-duty Guardian rollator is lighter.-The seat is narrow, but the back wheels are wide so you can't get it through smaller doors.-I seems a little flimsy, compared to my old rollator (which is much too large, but very sturdy).Pros-The blue is a nice color.-The under-seat storage is handy and the little removable carrier fits quite a lot--unfortunately, it isn't centered, so you have to be careful to make sure the seat is locked down and the pouch isn't obstructing the lock on the left side of the seat.-I like the cup holder, although it sticks out enough that the rollator won't fit through anything but large doorways. For me, it's okay. There are restaurants in the building where I work and I can now get a glass of tea or pop and take it back to my office. Before, I had to either pay more for a bottle of pop or tea or bring my own from home. I don't need the cup holder at home, so it's not a problem.-If you fit on the seat, it's comfortable--more comfortable than other rollators.-I LOVE that you can change the direction of the back so that you can sit in the "back" of the rollator (with the handles behind you) and it allows you to get close to a desk or table. This is especially helpful for tall people like me who are constantly faced with chairs that are too low in restaurants or meeting rooms.You should never fold it from the font--it folds very easily and fast and could pull someone down with it. Folding it from the back is a breeze. If you stand behind it and lift it by the yellow handle, it's easy to lift and won't open. Opening takes a little getting used to and once you figure it out, it opens very fast.The wheels also move very easily, so you must put on the brakes before sitting. In my old rollator, the wheels weren't as movable and I usually started to sit and then moved the rollator under me. Can't do that with this one. You'll end up on the floor.Other than not being sure how durable it's going to be, this is an adequate rollator. I was expecting much more functionality. It's not all that easy to reach a counter when you've folded up the seat, but it is a lot easier than an unfoldable rollator. And, unfortunately, the width between the posts, while just large enough to allow a large person to sit, are not far enough apart to make it easy to walk "inside" the rollator with the seat up.I expected more. I'm disappointed, but it will do.

Purchased for 90 year old for stability when walking and having a place to sit when needed. Easy to assemble and sturdy. Nice cushioned seat and handy cup/phone holder. It fits through most doors, but probably won't fit through most bathroom doorways. I would double the width of your doors if it is going to be used inside. We use it primarily outside and function type buildings. Inside we use a standard hospital type walker. Very happy with our purchase. Also it folds easily for travel.
