Some of our astute followers have noticed me slurring my words. I am not drunk but working with Brad, it would be justifiable. I had 6 infected cysts removed from my mouth (noncancerous) & I have residual scar tissue and numbness. I will try to do better. Thanks, Bob.
I hope you heal well and quickly. Take care.
I’m so sorry, I hope you feel better soon!
Take care.
Ouch ! Hope they've healed by now !
As a daughter of elderly parents and a former nursing home nurse...this walker looks like a wonderful piece of equipment.
I posted a big happy review of mine in the comment below. It's wonderful
I'm
Such a great equipment! Thanks for reviewing and sharing with us! 🇺🇸❤️
Yes!
I have a walker like this. I use it to walk my dog. I use it anytime a lot of walking is involved. It’s very nice.
I just bought the same walker. Love it. I feel so free with it. The wheel base is a great stabilizer for me.
The TH-cam volume needs to louder. It's very low compared to other TH-cam channels.
I noticed that too
Agree!
We will try to do better. Thanks for letting us know!
I have this walker. It's wonderful. I don't have to hunch over, and my wrists don't get sore.
The little holder IS for a cane. However, I find it doesn't "click in" well, and it's come off a few times.
I live in senior housing. Even with walkers like this, the elderly won’t stand up straight, even though they can. This throws off the center of gravity and causes the walker to turn over since their upper body weight is being supported by the arm rests. I have seen this time and again.
Really? That's unfortunate.
You may think people can stand straight but you're probably wrong. I start out standing correctly but the further I walk, the worse the pain. So I lean over, more & more. And my one shoulder gets injured from bearing my weight. So, I don't go out much anymore. I've never seen a walker turn over while being used. People are more likely to fall trying to sit then walking, even leaning over.
mines have never tips. I brought one because i use canes and walker.. Using those items make my shoulder and
back hurt..i prefer standing up straight while walking then bend over
This is just an FYI, this company is based in the UK, which we didn't know until we saw that our credit card company imposed a foreign transaction fee (about $8). So if you're in the US, use a card that doesn't have those fees. Thank you for the video, guys. We're looking forward to having my mother in law try it.
I have a heavy duty model of that brand. Holds up to 450 lbs or 500 that was on the box. 200 dollars from Amazon. It has more hard sided basket with a padded seat cushion. I figured out to stand more upright on these you have to adjust the hand grips about as out as you can get. Then your forced to stand closer to the walker.
Can you actually lean on the armrests , put your weight on them? Thank you ....
I don't use a walker anymore, but I know this would be my choice if I had to do it again.
That's good to hear!
Can you put a lot of weight on those armrests to unload the lumbar spine ? Like say the large shopping carts at Costco and Sams club etc. they are excellent to walk with . Thanks !
Thank you very much for the review. It's a BIG improvement.
great!
At minute 3:45 Brad sits BUT he does it wrong. If you turn your body around, if you're weak, wobbly or tired that's a sure fire way to lose your balance & fall.
I discovered that with my Rollator & luckily caught myself. My Dad wasn't so lucky. The fall broke his back. People sit when they need to rest or when standing still becomes too painful. They're feeling weak or hurt so more vulnerable to falling. Turning around on wobbly legs is risky.
The correct way to sit is to remain stationary & move the walker around you. As you swing it so you can sit, put the brakes on before you sit. To resume walking, stand & roll the walker around you to in front of you.
Practice it Bob & Brad. You quickly get used to spinning around you & can actually do it faster than turning your body rather than the walker. My doctor told me a lot of people fall while trying to sit down. He told me how to do it right (after my Dad fell).
My problem with my Rollator, and I think it'd be a problem with this taller one too is as the pain of walking increases I put more & more weight on my arms & hands. I have a weak arm from a long ago injury so the bulk of weight affects the good arm/ shoulder. And then my "good" shoulder hurts - like bursitis or muscle cramps. It takes days to recover. Is there anything I can do? Thanks.
Hello, Thank You For Reminding Us.
It'd be nice if those pneumatic tires were available for their bariatric walkers...
Thank you for sharing this! I just ordered the fully fold up one! It should be much better for my lower back.
😊
hope it helps!
I have truly wanted to try one of these walkers. I have Ankylosing spondylitis and a severe stoop. Have wondered if gradual raising the arm rests might help correct some of that.
Would the arm/shoulder rest help to prevent shoulder subluxation? You guy are great BTW! Thank you , keep doing what you're doing!
OasisSpace also has solid wheel and bariatric versions up to 450 lb. The pneumatic are sold as "all terrain." (Mine' walker is going to be delivered next week. I used a safety roller with platforms a few years back for hyperekplexia and ataxia. I miss it... Can't wait for my new toy!) Adjusting the brake cables is exactly the same process as for a bike. All you need is a little know-how and a pair of pliers.
Literally had my first walk to the shops with one of these today, no pneumatic tyres so it did rattle my cage!
Love it so far, I did laugh about the cup holder as we were puzzled too by it, doesn’t look like a cane holder and it’s too small for a cup of tea 😂
This would be great as I’m learning to walk again after spinal surgery.
Have you ever reviewed the Comodita' brand of walkers? The joints are welded rather than bolted, the wheels are 8-inch, and they make an Avanti model which is designed for use with just one hand. Finding a one-hand operable walker is a challenge.
Searching upright walkers for my mom and this brand never came up in the search. Thank you! I am looking at them now. Still trying to find the best one for her. Do you own a Comodita brand?
@@blackeneddove Yes, I have the Comodita' Avanti model - it is designed for one-handed operation and has the brake next to the single handlebar - you do not even have to release hold of the handle bar to brake. I have had my unit for about 1.5 years and I am delighted with it's functionality.
Hi B&B
Thank you for your informative posts. To answer the
cup holder question. It is for a walking stick.
and thank you!
Have bad knees and a bad back. My knees got worse over the years. When I found myself moving around my home by holding onto walls and furniture I researched canes and ordered a pair of quad canes with offset handles. They are a help, but not as much as I'd like. Also, my knees continued to get worse. After several years of using the canes, I researched walkers, and ordered a rolling walker. It's important to get one in the right size, which I did. I've had it several years now, and I love it. If I were to get a new one, I would prefer a forearm rolling walker, but it will probably be years before they make a model in my size (short & fat) in the American fold style (front to back). The Euro style (side folding) is being pushed a lot, but I hate the seats on them. The American folding style rolling walkers have better seats. Fortunately, there's nothing wrong with my current rolling walker, so I can wait a while before I have to buy a new one. I also still use my canes in narrower areas.
Whether you use a regular rolling walker or a forearm rolling walker, they are great! Mine helps me move around better than I can with my canes, and with less pain. My legs don't dangle when I sit on the seat because it's the right floor to seat height for me. The seat is wide enough for me to walk between the handles, so I don't have to bend over at an angle that would strain my knees, back, and shoulders. That also helps me maintain proper control of my rolling walker. Definitely, getting the right size is absolutely important.
I do recommend rolling walkers for people with mobility or other health issues.🤗
I like your caricatures in the intro!
thanks!
I have one of those.. I brought one to help me stand up straight
Does it help?
@@cynthiadianecarey9902 yes
@@vikky1376 Thank you. I'm not ready to give up, yet. Maybe it could help me, too
@@cynthiadianecarey9902 God Bless
@@vikky1376 May God bless you always
It would be nice if the front wheels would lock in a forward position when folded up, otherwise a person that has trouble walking may have trouble guiding it in their vehicle. We just bought one similar to this one last week, the one we have has shock absorbers on each side, but almost identical. Thanks Guys, you are helping so many people!!
Glad to help!
Hi Craig, what is the name of the walker you got & do you still like it?
Exceptionally very very good..
Thanks!
It looks like an umbrella holder.
And BTW: I really like the opening caricatures of you guys.
Also, I appreciate your videos a lot!!
it can hold an umbrella.. in the manual it says it for a cane. there a video on this they show it for the cane
Thanks! We appreciate you watching!
You are right.. It for the cane
Hey! Where’s the wise quote at the beginning?!
I am looking for a walker/rollator that I can use in my very bumpy yard todo yard work. So I need something with a heavy-duty seat to set full sprinkling cans,etc
Can u suggest what would be the best walker for someone with no balance. Need sturdiness to feel secure?
Do you know of a walker that can be used as a knee scooter? I use a two-wheel walker. This week I fell (thank you MS) and broke a bone in my ankle and another in my lower leg. I can’t use a knee scooter because of balance issues.
My name is Ed Malloy and I have a Comodita Tipo standup advance walker it has the arm rests on it and that is a cane holder mine also has a cup holder and it’s a double fold with a carrying bag for it also
Oh, I like it!!!
:)
What cause neck spasms so painful it stops me in mid-movement.? ..no warnings either.
I have a damaged wheel how do I find a replacement.
How much does it weigh? Does it fold? I’ve got to pick up my Mom’s walker to get it in the car and get it upstairs.
Are these wheels good at going over slight lips/bumps? Like a bit of a difference in height between sidewalk segments?
And is there a walker/rollator combo version or something? My mother gets tired quickly but she still wants to be able to get out & go places. She can walk herself with her walker to the bathroom & back, but long distances, she wants to be able to sit & if we go to a store for example, I can push her around (pun intended :D ) the one we have currently, the wheels suck :/ she's literally fallen out of it once & almost fell out many times while I push her around, all because it gets stuck on a tiny little bump in a sidewalk. I now tell her to lean back far & push back to keep her from falling out if we need go over a tiny lip somewhere.
I took mine across bad sidewalk bumps which I couldn't 9reviosly do with my old walker. It's amazing. It walked pretty far and over uneven terrain multiple times, whereas my old walker absolutely couldn't even go over a sidewalk crack. I have the elenker and I highly recommend it!
The best thing since I'm wobbly some days because of Huntingtons disease, I don't have to worry about holding my hand on the old style of walker and possibly hurt my wrist because my wrist and whole arm are in the sleeve like area for holding. And when I would start to fall, I could very easily catch myself with all my arm in there.
The only problem with my version is it doesn't really fold but my mom is always with me when I need to put it in the car. There's a very expensive version that does fold but this was way less and the only difference is it can't fold. Mine came with a little bag instead of a basket but you can put your purse directly over the armholder, I even took it shopping it holds a lot.
You aren't supposed to sit in the Rollator / walker while it's moving. That's dangerous as they aren't built for that. Your mother may need a wheelchair instead. Transport wheelchairs are smaller & more lightweight than regular ones. Your Mom can get hurt badly falling from the Rollator or walker.
there are some walkers that are both wheelchair and walker combine.. but this one is not. it not safe to push someone in this type of walkers
Brad they do make larger size. I have one in an larger size
Does anyone know how to loosen brakes on these walkers please??

Just had this walking device with my patient. In fact, it’s not really comfortable to work with if you compare it with regular rollator
Really? Seems like the brand also have the regular rollator.

Okay.Thanks

How do you recommend getting off the toilet
Did I hear a give a way
Does MEDICARE COVER THEM?
Medicare gave me a very sad rollator that literally couldn't get me to the grocery store and back because the size of sidewalk cracks. So no, and from what I was recently told they barely cover anything anymore, I had to buy my own shower chair when my other got wiggly and they no longer covered even that
How much does it weigh?
23 lbs
it depends on the model you get.. because it also comes in a larger size
❤❤❤😊
Thank you for watching!
That isn’t a cup holder. It clips to the bottom to support a cane.
Unfortunately if you are 5’ 0” it’s too tall, even on the smallest setting. We bought one for my Mom but had to take it back. Disappointing.
Thank you for mentioning that. I'm not quite 5 ft tall and I was looking for an alternative to what I've got. Glad to know that it doesn't work for 5 ft. Not a lot does.
this is not the only model by this company,, I'm 5' 3'' And the one i have it is adjustable
@@vikky1376 If there is a smaller version I'd love to know who makes it. I was told not, but maybe that store just didn't know. On the one we had the smallest setting was just enough too tall that it was unusable. Possibly your few inches taller made it workable for you but not my Mom. Glad you had success with it, it looks like a great product.
@@camillemazurek ok i misunderstood.. before i brought this product i did search around.. i haven't seen one in a shorter model. your mom might need to talk with her doctor and see if they customize one for her
That's too bad!
Canadian viewers may find this interesting. This walker is under $200 in US. It's almost $700 in Canada.
Yeah, I know, it's crazy how inflated the prices are Canada vs US for the exact same product!!
Can the walker hold an oxygen tank?
Are they very heavy? The version I have could hold quite a lot on the arm holder because the bag it came with was very small and awkward. If you only have something heavy on one side, it will go a little sideways but we got the less expensive version than the one my mom saw advertised, I have a elenker which is perfect for me as younger person with Huntingtons disease but you might have to spring for the stronger one with better Storage
@@daniexmachina yea, one weighs about 5-8lbs. He can't get a portable oxygen concentrator, so he has to carry a bottle.
That is for a cane.
All so heavy
