RTL10266 Nitro Euro-Style 4-Wheel Rollator Walker With Seat, Red

After extensive research, purchased this walker/rollator for 91 year old mother. You never know if the right choice, but hope for the best (especially since this is not returnable). Luckily, an EXCELLENT choice …mother loves it. It is well made, doesn’t have the cables hanging out where they can get caught on something (thank goodness - this is a really great feature) and is very maneuverable. Seat and adjustable seat back…comfortable. Nice little mesh bag to carry stuff. HOWEVER, its’ claim to fame (and deserving of recognition) is how it folds up and is still maneuverable and stable (I’m sure everyone knows it’s not designed to be used all the time in a semi “folded” position). An elderly person with arthritis and mobility issues (as my mother) can easily grab the handle in the center of the seat and lift…folding it such that she can roll it through narrow doorways (she also folds it into a narrow position to have it right next to bed …and then rolls it easily from the bedside to open floor area). Then, push the seat back down into locked position. VERY easy. I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful this feature is. (The first time you’re trying to maneuver a walker/rollator in a tight space, you’ll be grateful…and there are ALWAYS tight spaces at some point). She can also put things on the seat to carry them from place to place. She can sit in seat when in kitchen doing “stuff”, sits in seat and is comfortable out on patio when taking her dog out, etc., etc…. Additionally, I’ll note that I can lift it into, and out of, the back seat of car (I’m 72) when needing to take her to doctor, etc. (that’s a 4-door car). Note: when totally in “folded” position, it stays locked so doesn’t try to open up when loading/unloading from vehicle. Just set it on ground and push down on handles and it will start “unfolding” and open up. Directions included with walker/rollator explain this. I did purchase a Nitro cane holder attachment (comes in 2 pieces … the cane “clip” and a bottom rest for the foot of the cane) as well as a “hook” attachment (S-shaped with Velcro) to hang her purse or bag on. I will note I couldn’t find a cup holder of any kind that would work (appears the Nitro “sprint” model has a cup holder attachment point). I ended up retrofitting the cup holder made for the Nitro Sprint model by using Velcro wrap, the bottom/foot rest of the cane holder (the cup holder sits on the cane rest and then I wrapped Velcro around the cup and rollator frame). Not elegant, but it’s secure. The cup holder also holds her over-sized cell phone. FYI - regarding the cane holder … the “clip” portion of the cane holder securely holds her cane so I was able to leverage using the bottom/foot rest of the cane holder when doing my retrofit for the cup holder. Quick point … observe the main frame is not round (so it can hide cables), thus it’s more difficult to find generally available walker/rollator accessory attachments so keep that in mind. However, I could either get what I needed, or came up with a retrofit. Like the other features so much I’d still buy it again. So, the manufacturer let us down on a cup holder mount for this model, but I figured out a workaround and didn’t take a star off since because of it. (Maybe they’ll read this and fix their faux pas. LOL) I seldom write reviews, but felt this was deserving of it (and the price was reasonable). Final note … waited over a month, with my mother constantly using it, before writing review.

This walker is very well built and comes fully assembled. The frame is very strong, but the weight is less than a less expensive walker we bought. The wheels grip well. The back support is comfortable. The seat is comfortable. The brakes work well. It folds easily just by pulling up on the seat. It's more expensive than other walkers, but the quality makes up for the expense. In my opinion, this walker has no shortcomings. My husband, who has shrunk to 5'9" and weighs 150, loves it.

The Nitro "Rollator" is a great piece of mobility equipment.This Drive Medical offering is clearly beautifully well made, superbly finished and offers great design. One thing that attracted were the large 10" dia. front wheels. I'm going to use on a trip to our second home in southern Italy where sidewalk paving is sometimes poorly maintained and many streets one needs to cross are rough cobblestones. The Nitro should easily roll over them. It comes fully assembled and folded. To deploy it all you have to do is push the handgrips apart which "unclicks" a unique mechanism that secures it when in a folded condition, so you can pop it into the trunk of your car. The whole thing only weighs about 17 pounds, but is constructed like strong. solid heavyweight. To fold it, a quick pull on a sturdy strap handle on the seat collapses the side together in a compact package. The handgrips are fully adjustable so they're comfortable to users of varying heights. When you pop it open a large, comfortable seat unfolds which would comfy for a wide range of derrieres. Unlike most conventional walkers that usually have easy-to-snag cables that can catch on things, the brake cables on the Nitro are routed THROUGH the inside of handle frames, making them catch proof for careless airline baggage assistants who may be handling your folded rollator. The brakes themselves are fully and easily adjustable for consistently positive braking. The Euro-styled Nitro is also an eye-catcher that makes conventional walkers look out-dated. Just this morning at a physical exam a nursing assistant declared, "Wow! That is SOME walker! Where did you get it?" Amazon Prime of course and for a very attractive price.

Es la.mejor compra que he hecho en mucho tiempo. Muy buena calidad y ha hecho toda la diferencia desde no poder casi caminar a poderme desplazar cuadras.

Se atenia a mis espectativas y las cumplio: esteticas, diseño, peso y maniobrabilidad. Mi mujer gracias a el se mueve en casa, calle y tienda.

This arrived on time and fully assembled, which was a welcome surprise. A really sturdy rollator purchased as a replacement of my 81 year old mothers previous one. Solid, yet lightweight and a shiny bright red, my Mum loves it.

Very sturdy, well built. No wires to get hooked on anything, easy to fold, maneuvers extremely well,,netted basket has ample room, brakes are easy to use, backrest and seat are very comfortable.A light weight and everything is super easy to adjust. The large wheels are awesome for all terrain.I’m 80 and this is my Cadillac for now . You won’t be disappointed with this purchase ! I studied and read all reviews, etc., and decided on this one and am super happy with my purchase. Delivery was quick too.

Ready assembled and immediately life-changing. Changing from a walking stick gave less pain, better posture and the confidence to walk further with a seat to rest on. Folds easily and light enough to lift onto bus or into boot of car. Easy to adjust, solidly made, rolls smoothly, well finished and looks smart.
