Fixed Wheels with Rear Glide Tips Wheels for Invacare Walkers Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The walker I have came with small, 3-inch, wheels which caused several problems: the walker would snag on carpet, got stuck in cracks in the pavement, etc. The 5" wheels have eliminated these problems. They were easy to install, and adjust: you just snap them in place.

The process was seamless, I ordered, they shipped. The package arrived several days before their estimate.

Knee Wheeled Walker By Drive Medical - 1 ea Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I was told I would be in a cast and on crutches for a minimum of 6-8 weeks I was really bummed out. After a few days on the crutches I was also sore under my arms & had slipped several times & nearly fallen. A friend mentioned that his wife had rented a wheeled walker when she broke her foot and said it was great. The rental price was about $150 per month, or medical supply houses sell them for over $900 (HONEST! I looked!). The Amazon product was a CLEAR bargain, and now I have it for future use for all my friends who may be as clumsy as I was.
This product is WONDERFUL as an alternative to crutches! I can enjoy being out with friends & canmove around my home much more freely. If I am in a place where I need not make turns, the scooter can move faster than my friends who are walking. Little kids are fascinated. I can hang a bag from the brake handle for small items. The walker folds up small enough to fit even in small cars' trunks. But it IS heavy, so small or frail people may have trouble lifting it into a car or carrying it upstairs. IT does need to be carried up and down stairs; it is much too bulky to navigate them. It can handle one or two steps or a threshold OK.
THREE CAVEATS: 1. I am 5' 2", and I have especially short legs. I wish the adjustments had one more notch to lower the knee platform. 2. The walker is a bit clumsy to turn. Given the price difference between this model & the bicycle-style steerable walkers, I think I made the right choice, but if I were going to be unable to walk for muchlonger, I think the difference in pricemight be worthwhile. 3. The Amazon merchant was great, but DRIVE MEDICAL's customer service is DREADFUL. After a week or so, I noticed my walker was missing a cap on one side that keeps the end of a screw from scratching the user's knee. I did not know if I lost it or if the cap had been missing when the walker was delivered.I called DRIVE MEDICAL to ask if I could buy a replacement.They said to call the seller.I called Wheelchairs Plus Mobility Solutions, and a very sympathetic customer service person said she would call DRIVE MEDICAL to get me a cap. They told her that they do not sell spare parts at all and I should go to the hardware store. My excellent local hardware store does NOT carry these caps, and online I would have to buy about 600 of them, even if I could figure out what size to buy. My husband ultimately resersed the screw so that the sharp end was on the outside, but I CANNOT recommend DRIVE MEDICAL.
