I just purchased my second Duro-Med Rollator so Papa has one for the house and one for the car. This rollator is so much sturdier than other walkers Papa has used in the past. The wheels are bigger and the brakes work extremely well. The wheels are not only bigger around (8-inch wheels), but they are fatter (width) so they easily go over small bumps, carpet, and gravel. Papa has a tendency to lean on the walker with his full 235-pounds of weight so we needed excellent brakes. Note that it took some practice to get used to folding this rollator for when we travel -- the trick is to hold the lever down with one hand and then grab the crossbar and jerk up on the walker. Also note that this walker is heavier than traditional walkers, but that is what we wanted -- a sturdier walker. I'm very pleased with it and would strongly recommend this walker over the lighter, 4-inch or 6-inch wheeled walkers!!!
