12er M/L REVIEW

Rating:

What was your concern with this review?

I got my Rollator back in May of this year.

On the plus side the vehicle is wonderfully made --- design, materials, craftsman, elegant looks. My primary requirements are: 1) a high quality elite machine, 2) exceptional wheels and brakes, both running brake and emergency brake, 3) an exceptional seat and backrest 4) pneumatic tires,, 5) comfort, both when walking and when seated.

I would grade the vehicle as follows: Requirements 1), 2), and 4) --- A++. I would grade 3) --- D. The seat is just too small to be useful. My cheap DRIVE Rollator has a larger seat that is safer and more comfortable. I think it would be easy to incorporate a proper size seat into the design of this machine. I would likewise grade 5) as a D. I rest my arms on the handlebars when I am seated. The brake hardware
on the top side of the bars makes resting the arms there very uncomfortable. I think a simple design change could also solve this issue.

Before it could be corrected a fistula in my lower back damaged or killed some nerves in my lower back. As a result my legs are partially crippled and loaded with neuropathy. As a result I have no walking balance. The vehicle really supports and helps me walk fairly normally.
I am going to try to modify the Walker to see if it can
meet my needs. In the meantime, it is sidelined, and I am looking for a new Walker. .

Sorry to grade the Walker with 4 Stars. When you fix these problems on new designs, I will change my rating.
