Drive Medical Nitro Sprint Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat, Standard Height Lightweight Rollator with Large Wheels, Folding Rolling Walker, Walker Rollator with Seat, Red

Over a few years I have been a heavy user of walkers. Using them for transporting shopping, laundry, charity shop stuff etc. Also on rougher terrain at National Trust places etc. I have had seven walkers and three of them have have been Drive Nitro’s. Friends have had six. They win on having concealed brakes and very comfortable seat.The latest Sprite has updated its braking system which on the old version worn the tyres down quicker. Although I have managed to buy new back wheels in the past. My only complaint is please could they do more colours as with just red and black we get them mixed up when we meet up!

Muy buen artículo

I have used an earlier model of this walker for years due to back pain.Sometimes I feel like the pain in my back is so bad I have to sit down immediately. It is nice to always have a chair with me. It is also nice for carrying boxes too. My husband recently needed a walker to prevent falls. I wasn't sure he would use it very much so I got him a less expensive smaller one from a different brand. Turned out he really liked it and felt safer using it. The problem was the wheels. They were about 5" in diameter and maybe an inch wide. The wheels got stuck on the threshold of our front door and in the crack at the front of the building elevator. He got very frustrated trying to shove the wheels over the obstructions. So I did a search for the brand of walker I have and found this one. He really likes it. The front wheels are big enough they roll right over the things his old walker got caught on. The hand grips can be adjusted for different heights but his tend to not stay where we set them. I have reset them twice and I noticed yesterday they had slipped again. I will have to see if there is something I can tighten. The brakes are good. The seat is comfortable but he does not use it very much. I like the bag on my older model better. Mine is rather rectangular and holds more. His is shaped like a large fanny pack and doesn't have mesh like mine does. You can't see what is in the bag as easily but some people may prefer that for privacy. I use the bag on mine all the time so I don't have to carry a purse. Both models have zippers on the bags but mine is bigger and easier to get into. I really like the way these rollators fold up. All you do is give a strong pull/jerk on the handle attached to the seat. The seat folds vertically and you can squeeze the sides of the seat together until it clicks and it locks in place to make it easier to lift up and put in the car. Then when you get it out you spread the sides of the seat until it locks in the open position. Very easy. I would recommend this brand to anyone looking for a good walker that rolls and has a comfortable seat, is easy to lift and stores in a narrow place.

This kept me mobile whilst recovering from surgery. Sturdy and stylish.

As a younger person living with multiple sclerosis, having to use a Rollator is about the last thing you want to have at my age. I have been using one of these (what I will call the older model) for the last eight years and have absolutely loved them. I have multiple. I keep one in the car and one in the house. They get extremely heavy use being that I teach full-time and use it at school. I get asked so many questions about it no matter where I go and always sing its praises. I should be a rep for these people because I could’ve sold at least 100 of them by now. This is the latest model and has some new features. I really like that the pouch is not webbed, but an actual bag which gives you some security when keeping stuff inside. It’s also raised a little bit higher so the bag won’t get caught in the front wheels when you turn, you also have three options to where you want to keep it on the device. The seat is a little bit higher than the older model which just feels nice, not like you’re sitting on the ground. The ride is smooth just like the other model but the backing on the seat is a little bit different and I’m curious to see how that feels over time. Still lightweight and easy to handle in and out of the car. I am only 5 foot 2 and have owned the petite model in all of them that I purchased. I’ve never tried the standard size and certainly don’t need the tall size. As a young person having to use one of these, I cannot recommend it enough. I can’t speak to its functionality for an older person being that I’m not one, but as someone who is very ambulatory and still moves relatively quick, other than having terrible balance, I don’t know how it would be for an older person to use. I purchased the color black because it suits me the best. It does come in cool colors and I bet you those look great too. $200 for one of these I think is a steal. Don’t hesitate, it’s worth it. I will update this after a bit to keep you posted on my impressions. Again, I should be a rep for these people! Hey Amazon hook me up!!! Impressions after one month…. Works great feels good. In fact a little bit sturdier than the previous model. Brakes are great. Everything works really well. I just feel like they’ve completely upgraded the entire device still a fan. It’s worth it no regrets. And the new design of the backrest is spine actually feels more supportive.
