Absolutely wonderful walker
When I ordered this I had no idea what to expect as I have never had a need for one, so had nothing to compare it to. My Father-In-Law needs the help of a walker to get around so decided to give this a try. He has been using one of those walkers with 2 wheels up front and you just drag the back legs. He didn't do a lot of walking with it. Once we gave this to him he has been out and about every day, even in the rain!! The seat is so hndy as he does get tired during his walkabouts. This is so easy for him to use that he has started investigating a lot more of the neighborhood. And... best of all, he is meeting the neighbors and making new friends.<br /><br />It comes in a tripple boxed state. Yep, 3 sturdy boxes which actuall are heavier than the walker itself. The walker is very light but is strong and very well made. It includes the walker which folds down for transporting in a small space. There is a drink cup which slides right into the supplied bracket. A small cup snaps in place and one can take their cane along while walking. The wheels are large 10 inchers up front with smaller trailing wheels. Tires are rubber and mounted on some snazzy looking wheels. There is a black bag that hangs up front and zips open or closed. It also has a larger bag so that you can fold the walker up and slip it into the bag for traveling. They have thought of everything on this one. We are now calling my Father-In-Law Hot Rod.<br /><br />Assembly was easy as it was already assembled with the exception of the cup holder, the cane holder and the bag. Everythng was in perfect working order with one exception. The zipper on the hanging bag has 2 zipper heads. One of the zipper head pulls broke off when I tried to zip it shut. I am going to remove the broken one as well as the second and install a small rope type pull that would be easier for some people with hand issues to operate. The maker of this might want to do the same. The pull will hang down about 2 inches and is easier to handle and will be a contrasting colour for easy visibility. I had considered a 4 star rating because of this zipper issue but it is such a sweet walker that I just cannot bring myself to downrating it for the zipper pull. Yes, it is that nice!!<br /><br />If you are looking for something like this and want the best, you might do yourself a favour and get one of these.. This is going to last for a very long time.
