Really nice walker for the price.
A very nice walker to help you stand up straight. Fairly easy to assemble. My wife did it since I can't right now. Moves around really nice. Transporting it from place to place might be a challenge as it does not fold up. Does however come a part in two pieces.

Just right
It is designed to last, very well made yet light enough for handicaps to maneuver easily. Extra large diameter wheels are great for getting 'off road' without getting stuck in cracks and tall grass. The taller design really saves the back allowing you to walk upright normally.

Light weight and portable
We purchased this walker for my mother-in-law. It has help with her back pain & standing more upright. It is also light weight and easy to fold down for her 93 years old spouse to put in and out of their vehicle. Delivery was right on time.

Easy assemble, it seems to be the right walker for what we needed.
I assembled it very easy, good instructions. It works well and can be adjusted to me and my wife. Im 6ft tall and she is much shorter, it can adjust to any height you need. Good hand breaks, cane holder, nice seat if rest is needed or just sitting and talking. At this time it is to help thru knee surgery re-coop. It seems to be well built and sturdy.. Happy with the product. If it doesnt hold uo, I will write a different revieww.I like it so far so good. : ) Could use a water bottle holder, its hard to push hold stuff.

High Tip-Over Risk
After using it, I found that it allowed me to stand upright completely and reduced the strain on my arms. However, due to a critical design flaw, it has caused some physical injuries.Design FlawThe front wheels are too short in length. From a mechanical perspective, since this walker is relatively tall, its center of gravity is also higher. If the front wheels do not extend far enough, the center of gravity shifts forward, leading to potential safety hazards:Crossing Crosswalks:When crossing the street, there is often an incline where the crosswalk meets the road, along with bumps or uneven seams (see attached images). This frequently causes the center of gravity to shift forward. Since the front wheels are too short, I have fallen forward three times within just over a month, resulting in scraped skin, bleeding, difficulty walking, and being unable to go out for days.Entering and Exiting Buildings or Platforms:There are ramps at building entrances and exits (see attached images). Due to the short front wheels, the walker easily tips forward, posing a significant safety risk. As a result, I always need assistance when going downhill.Sidewalk Slopes:Many sidewalks in New York have a slight outward slope (see attached images). When walking or turning, the short front wheels make the walker prone to tipping sideways. I have fallen sideways twice, suffering abrasions.Uneven Sidewalk Seams:The seams between sidewalk concrete slabs are often uneven (see attached images). Because of the short front wheels, even a small misstep can cause the walker to tip forward. I have fallen forward once because of this.All of these safety issues stem from the design flaw of the short front wheels. If you observe standard walkers, shopping carts provided in stores, or personal shopping carts, you’ll notice that their front sections are longer, and the rear wheels are positioned further forward, ensuring a stable center of gravity. So that they don't have the same tipping hazards, even on uneven surfaces.During my use, I met two other individuals using the same VIVE MOBILITY WALKER. They have experienced the same issues and share similar concerns about safety risks. They use it with extreme caution, always feeling anxious, and one of them is already considering stop using it.Manufacture response is "The Vive Mobility Walker is designed for stability on standard indoor and outdoor surfaces. However, it may not be suitable for very uneven terrain, inclines, or surfaces with significant bumps or gaps. We strongly recommend exercising caution in such environments and using additional support when necessary."This not listed on their website!!!!!!

PRO'S AND CONS
NOT FOR USE PUSHING A PERSON IN IT IN AN EMERGENCY, WHEELS BUCKLE , WON'T ROLL EVEN SLOWLYASSEMBLY EASY ENOUGH BUT THEY LEAVE OUT SOME DETAILS ON OUTER AND INNER SIDE OF WHEELS UPON ASSEMBLE, BUT EASY TO REMOVE AND PLAVE OTHER SIDEI'M ON THE FENCE ABOUT STURDINESS AS I STATED ABOVE , LIGHTER WEIGHT COMPARED TO WHEELCHAIR BUT AT ABOUT 4X THE WEIGHT OF LITTLE WALKER PICTURED W/IT IN THE ABOVE AD, THE FRAME ITSELF IS FAIRLY STURDY, BUT LIKELY NEED TO ORDER EXTRA HAND SCREWS AS THEY NEED TO BE RE-TIGHTENED FREQUENTLY , BUT NOT SO TIGHT AS TO STRIP OR BREAK THE BOLTSWE'D LIKE TO RETURN IT ANFD PURCHASE SOMETHING MORE FEASIBLE FOR OUR NEEDS AS THIS PERSON CAN ONLY WALK SHORT DISTANCE AND THEN NEED MOBILITY HELPVERY VERY UNCOMFORTABLE FOR NORMAL TO WIDE PERSON TO SIT IN UNDER 5'7 , THE HANDLE BARS ON SIDES OR TOP ARE IN THE WAY, ALSO *** VERY IMPORTANT*** THIS DOES NOT ROLL EASILY OVER LAWN OR GARDEN HOSES, SMALL CURBS AND SUCH LIKE A PERSON WOULD BELIEVE W/THE LARGE WHEELS! THE BRAKES WORK WELL BUT SINCE THE TIRES ARE HARD PLASTIC THEY SLIDE WHEN BRAKE APPLIED ((I'D RECOMMEND GOING TO A RUBBER BETTER GRIPPING TIRES FOR BRAKING AND ROLLING AS THESDE WOULD NEED REPLACED EVERY FEW MOS W/CONT USE)) LIKELY THE DISABLED PERSON WOULD FALL FORWARD OVER ( MIGHT BE FINE PRODUCT IF ONLY USED INSIDE ON SHORT CARPET OR TILE IN A NURSING HOME SETTING, BUT NOT OUTSIDE !)THE STYLE OF ARM RESTS MAY WORK FOR SOME APPLICATIONS, BUT FOR OUR PURPOSE I SEE THIS CAUSING LOW BACK STRAIN. IF YOU ARE LEANING FORWARD W/BODYWEIGHT AND HAVE TO TRY TO LIFT ROLLATOR OVER A HUMP IS A RECIPE FOR LOW BACK OR SHOULDER INJURY POSSIBLE FALLIMNG OVER AND BEING INJUREDIN GOD WE TRUST
