Some users of 5'0" height and lower have reported the seat to be slightly higher than what they had expected The seat of the walker provides you with superior comfort while sitting down during your break periods A rollator walker that's the right height for a person of six feet two inches is going to be far too tall for a person of five feet two inches. Conversely, a rollator that's the right height for a shorter person is going to be uncomfortably low for a tall person. That's why it's vital to buy a rollator that's height adjustable. Your chosen rollator should ideally be easy to adjust so that you could do it alone if you needed to.

Speed: You can go faster using a rollator than you can with a standard walking frame because you don't need to stop and move the device forward every couple of steps. Instead, you can just cruise along.

Secure feet in the right position. Adjust sandals to rotate or slide, and add wedges for additional heel or toe elevation to align legs if one is shorter. Most rollators feature some kind of storage, from a simple basket to a range of baskets and pouches. How much storage you need depends on how you intend to use your rollator. If you plan to go out and do some grocery shopping, you'll need enough storage to bring your haul home with you. On the other hand, if you'll only be using your rollator around the house or on pleasure walks, you may need only minimal storage. For many rollators, it's possible to buy additional storage pouches that fit the crossbars using Velcro, buttons, or snaps.

Second Step has been manufacturing the highest quality standing and walking frame equipment since 1989. Believing that passion drives purpose, we have devoted our lives to helping people learn to walk again using the Second Step Gait Harness System (GHS). An upright walker allows the user to stand and walk upright with good posture, which isn’t the case with traditional walkers. What to Look for When Buying An Upright Walker Much more stable than a Standing Walker, the client is comfortably supported at the center of the frame and is safe from falling in any direction. The GHS allows clients to exercise according to their conditions and abilities. A family medicine physician from our Medical Expert Board then reviewed the contents of this article for medical accuracy surrounding what to look for in walkers, who should be using them, and various safety concerns. Using the GHS has changed my patient’s life forever. At first, he needed 2 people just to assist him standing. Now, he is ambulating 40 feet with only minimal assistance to advance his left leg. He wouldn’t be walking if it weren’t for the GHS. I can’t thank you enough for helping him achieve his goals. Stacey TomczakThere are many different types of walkers on the market that differ in size, weight capacity, design, etc. Some models might work better for your needs, while others will not suit you at all. Therefore, this section will break down the most important factors to consider when choosing the right one for you or an older person you care about. Height & Size First, I would suggest talking with your doctor or healthcare provider to see what they suggest. They can assess your current mobility needs and suggest any modifications or equipment that may help prevent future falls. The GHS allows the client to increase their level of functioning as they progress through rehab and recovery. The client can perform greater movement than they could perform safely without the GHS’s support during over ground training. Make sure the brakes on your rollator are easy to operate. Stiff brakes, or brakes that are either too sensitive or not sensitive enough, can be dangerous and should be avoided. Also, the best upright walkers for seniors should not be heavyweight, so you can easily carry them around without straining too much. Low weight not only improves mobility but also reduces the physical effort to move this device around when standing up or sitting down.
