Medline Heavy-Duty Bariatric Folding Walker with 5” Wheels and Durable Handles, 500 lb. Weight Capacity

This is a very sturdy walker. All you do is take it out of the box and open it up. There are two leg pieces that have the wheels attached, and you just make sure you match the left piece to the left side and the right piece to the right side and slide them on the walker. There are notches on each leg to adjust height. Make sure you match the number of notches on each side so it's even. It clicks in place. There are two tabs or buttons on top of walker on each side (left & right) you push in to close or fold up each side of the walker. It folds up very nice and is pretty easy to use. Work with it a few times to get comfortable with it. Under $100.00, I feel the price is fair for the quality. Although, the price was much better during Thanksgiving / Black Friday 2024, but I hesitated to make the purchase then. Overall, I'm very pleased with this walker.

Great quality and sturdy.

These walkers are light weight yet very sturdy. I like the double wheel front and makes moving this walker easy on foors both wood and very short carpets.

Had hip replacement surgery. Fit the bill for me. I am 6'-3" and 220#. Solid and stable

I am 6' 5" tall, 285 lbs. This walker was essential to my hip replacement re-hab and I would recommend it for any of the bigger folks out there. It's extra width is both a plus and a minus, more on that below, so make sure you understand that when you get it. Background I bought this walker based on measurements. I wasn't sure I'd fit in a standard size and was pretty sure this one would work. After I received it and set it up, I began practicing using it around the house. Though it fit me perfectly and is quite sturdy, taking my full weight, it was quickly apparent that it would have trouble with some of my doors and some of the toilet closets themselves. Though I could find ways to navigate the doors (side ways, etc.) I decided to talk with the doctor about adding a pair of crutches to my arsenal - walker for walking and crutches for in and out of the bathroom. My doctor wasn't keen on crutches but said OK to writing me a script. As luck would have it, the hospital had a standard size walker which I tried and found I fit in making it workable. In the end I decided to go with the second, standard size walker instead of crutches for in and out of the bathroom. Details If you are in a similar situation, I would absolutely recommend getting both this larger walker for general walking and a standard size one for getting in and out of tighter spaces like the bathroom. - Even though you can "walk" around after surgery, you're so unstable that a walker is really the only way to go. For me it was weeks before I could use a cane and I'm grateful I didn't try the crutches but had a second walker for going to the bathroom. - The bigger walker is much better for taller folks. The extra width of the base clearly enhances the stability. There a few times when I worried about tipping over with the standard size walker. - Width wise, I just fit within the standard walker which meant, when I would step into it, my knuckles would sometimes scrape against my incision. Ouch. This is one reason why I wouldn't want to use it all the time. - In the week(s) following surgery, you are far more unstable then you expect. Going sideways through doors, angling and twisting, is more challenging then you anticipate. This makes the standard walker much nicer because you can go through doors straight on. When you're doing better, not a big deal, but in the early days the convenience is worth the price of getting two walkers. - For guys, the walker will go right over the toilet so you can step directly up to it to pee. The toilet closet in our bedroom bath, has both a slim door opening and a thin footprint. The larger walker doesn't fit on both accounts. Being able to walk straight in and pee when you're hurting and unstable was, once again, worth the price of getting two walkers. The walker did develop a bit of a twist. I think this is probably from using one side to leverage myself up from the bed or a chair. When putting equal weight on both sides it would go away and not be noticeable. Lastly the manufacture of the walker is Guardian which is the same as the standard size I got from the hospital. Nice to know this is the same walker used by hospitals. Summary In summary, if you're a bigger person and your walking environment can handle the width, this is a great walker and a no brainer. If you can only have one, the bigger one is the way to go. If you can afford two walkers (I bought one and insurance got the other) and you can still fit within a standard size walker and you've got small doorways and water closets, absolutely get two. You won't need them for too long but, while you do need them, convenience and ease of use is king.

My father with Parkinson's is a wide walker and his physical therapist recommended the bariatric walker. It works much better for him. We got him an attachable tray from the Medline website as Amazon didn't have it in this size.

Purchased through Amazon resale. It was listed as condition being Very Good. Arrived in Like New condition. Happy with purchase.

Good seller, great price, very quick ship and delivery. Product is very sturdy and supports my weight during leg injury recovery.

Excelente opcion Precio/calidad del producto. Andador muy robusto, practico y ligero para su uso. Ideal para personas con sobrepeso, muy robusta y facil de "doblar" para su traslado. Por sus dimenciones (ancho de 21") resulto muy practico para su uso dentro de casa ya que cabe perfectamente bien a traves de las puertas de cada cuarto.

These are great. I returned because prefer them with no wheels. Cost is reasonable. Great after surgery or for seniors.

Good heavy duty walker and price was way better than at a medical supply vendor. Bought for my dad who is 280 lbs and leans heavily on the walker. Have had it 9 months and has held up really well. Fits through standard doorways.

I weigh over 400 pounds and need a walker while my broken leg heals. Only issue, it is wider than some of the door frames in my house. But I think this isn't a problem with newer homes.

Good walker for the price. Doesn't fit through a normal doorway,
