Drive Medical 10266HD-BK Nitro Heavy Duty Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat, Black

I love this walker as it allows me to do the things I love including filling my multiple bird feeders, create and care for a large container garden and put my 2 cats in their carrier and take them out to their catio in the back yard. I am 67yr old and have a painful knee and ankle and am quite overweight. I got the walker several years ago after having several falls. This walker has kept me safe. And it makes walking so much easier!!! I like that it closes side to side and is easy to lift into my trunk and easy to it up 2 steps into my home. With the larger seat width it is a very tight fit thru my bedroom doorway, but all I need to do is pull up on the seat handle just a bit and easily get thru the doorway. Also so many walkers are rated for 300 or 400 lbs but the seats are only 15 to 18 inches wide. There is no way my butt and hips would fit in those. I can comfortably sit in this walker as needed to rest while walking or when I take myself or my dad to doctor appointments and I don't need to worry if I can sit in their waiting room chairs. This winter I was lucky and spent several months in Florida and was able to trim and weed my father's yard and even go to the beach or parks and walk on nature trails. The large wheels make it easier to get around on grass or well kept mostly flat trails. This walker keeps me safe and allows me to do the things I enjoy which keeps me happier!!!

When I was told I could upgrade to a rollator I went on a search and The HD Nitro is what I decided on.I've owned it since May, 2020.After regaing ability to walk again I needed something reliable. This rollator was it along with the independence and confidence of having a place to sit when needed.I love having a seat that sits high enough 20 inches, that I don't have to hoist myself up with alot of strain. And the arms on the rollator adjust in height so I can stand tall (not huntched over). Having the arms adjustable have helped with carpal tunnel issues I developed with a regular walker.You won't regret owning this rollator.I have independence because I am able to lift this and place it in my smaller SUV, for outings or a quick stop at the grocery. The bag holds just enough. It's very durable.I usually get comments about it.I'm 5'8", way under the max weight but bought the HD for stability & ease of use, foldable & maneuverability.Love it! 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I purchased the Nitro HD Rollator by Drive Medical on May 17, 2018. The free delivery was supposed to be between 5/21 an 5/23, it was delivered on 5/19/18. The unit comes fully assembled, including the wheels and brakes. It appears very well made and solid. I got the HD model with a max weight of 450 pounds. I weigh 320 pounds. But I bought it primarily for the wide seat. My wide hips easily fit between the main supports. And it fits through the doors in my house without having to collapse it. The seat and back support are not cushioned. They are more like an expensive, high quality lawn chair. They are very comfortable despite having no cushions.I bought a heavy duty rollator called the Mighty Mack last year. It is well built and will hold up to 600 pounds. But it is too bulky to get in my car, either the trunk or back seat, even when collapsed. And my car is a large Chrysler sedan. So I keep the Mighty Mack in the garage and only use it when I am working in the yard. By comparison, the Nitro HD collapses well enough to fit in the trunk or back seat.I made a mistake buying the Mighty Mack first. If you are looking for a heavy duty rollator that is comfortable, collapses easily, fits easily in the car and has support handles that can be adjusted without tools, go for the Nitro HD. If you are small, I would recommend the regular Nitro rollator.

Very easy to fold. Sometimes doesn't catch when folded, so I have to push one side to the other to get it to catch.I wish the back support could either flip around or be removed.Very sturdy, and overall, fairly easy to lift into and out of the car. I don't need to use it all the time, so I'm glad it folds up pretty thin. When I need it, I'm glad to have my "bariatric geriatric".

I am in an extended surgical recovery and I purchased this rollator to replace the standard rollator for use away from home. Among the benefits:* The curved plastic back strap is much more comfortable when sitting, compared to the metal bar on a standard rollator.* The wheel brakes actually work.* This rollator folds flat into a nice compact package to put in the vehicle.* When folded, the rollator latches so you don't have to wrestle with it unfolding while lifting it into the vehicle.* The handle height easily adjusts with a pushbutton, and is taller than a standard rollator (which is good for me, as I am tall).* The rollator folds side to side rather than front to back. This means if you need to go through a narrow doorway or down a narrow hall, you can partially fold the rollator by pulling up on the seat strap so that narrows and it will fit.* I don't know what, if anything, the "shock absorbers" do, but they look spiffy.10/10 so far. Would buy again.
