easy to move around, free wheeling front wheels are great, nice looking and folds so easy to put away or into a car.
Will give you as it does to me a lot of confidence in walking. However swivel wheels are good on pavement. wheels go in all directions when on gravel or stone roads I changed to straight firm wheels which I find safer for walking on pavements .Just got back from a cruise, the sliders do not slide on the open decks of the ship. They come to a stop when the slider hits the rubber caulking between the plans on the open decks, there walker is useless for walking around outside for excise, but on the closed area of ship it is excellent over the carpets and marble floors. You have to find some kind of a cover to put on over sliders to use on a cruise ship.
PS .Know Sander makes covers for the feet of the walker, with these feet covers you can walk on the outside decks of the ship, they can be purchased separately. I might add that the new Sander walker has a new wheel system that allows you to change from .the position of the front wheels from swivel to just going straight in seconds, a great addition to the walker. Great for going into a restaurant where you can change the wheel setting allowing it to swivel and walk thru narrow passage ways between tables, excellent for this.
I don't recommend the walker if you are very unsteady on your feet and have lose of balance, why, as you walk on streets you hit joints that can cause the walker to turn fast in a different direction, however if you fairly good balance but need there walker to help you walk and get out into society for some freedom, you can't get a better product than Stander Walker. Replacement sliders are easy to put on and don't cost much. For help walking around cruise ships there is no better product, for anyone who needs a walker and is going on a cruise, this is a must..

I ordered this walker for my disabled mom because her first walker is the regular one the just the sides fold in and it was hard for her to get it in and out of her car when she was alone. I searched the internet for a more compact yet durable walker and came across this one so we gave it a try and man does she love it! It folds up very easily and she can easily and comfortably put in the her passenger side of her car while she is sitting in the drivers side. The only complaint she has is the part of the walker where it folds up is too “in the middle” of the walker. Meaning she can’t get as inside the walker to sturdy herself like she could her old one. But she still chooses this walker over her previous.
Just awesome product. Awesome features. Height adjustable and solid once adjusted. Folds up easily for transportation and moving out of the way when eating out and visiting places. The pouch/pockets in the front make for an extra set of hands. Can carry water and drinks when they are in to go containers or bottles. Compact and lightweight. I needed this for recovery from a hip replacement decided to buy rather than rent am very happy I did and I am now ready to have the other hip replaced. Big bonus all the PT folks wanted to know where to get one!
This walker is unique, as many reviews have said. Lots of people including physical therapists have asked my mom about it. My only concern is that the wheels swivel wildly and uncontrollably when set to swivel, and they splay out slightly when set to stationary. I wonder if the walker itself is defective, but it seems to work fine. The fact that when you squeeze it together to be smaller it still works is an added feature. We don't use it as the primary walker, but for fitting into a car when others are driving, or squeezing into church or theater seats it's fabulous. Like an umbrella stroller compared to a big jogging stroller.
Can't say enough good things about this walker. I have knee issues and have been using the standard bulky stainless steel looking walker for a year. This new one is extremely lightweight yet very strong. It folds with one hand and fits anywhere.
I bought the rose pink one and get lots of positive comments.

Description
Walk with confidence with this contemporary-looking EZ Fold-N-Go Walker, the most compact, portable, easiest open-and-close walker ever invented. When folded, the EZ Fold-N-Go Walker is about four times smaller than the average walker. It fits in small spaces, like an airplane overhead bin or a tiny car trunk. The unique design allows it to open and fold up effortlessly-to fold, just raise the easy-release lever with one hand and the walker collapses. To open, slide the handles apart. The EZ Fold-N-Go Walker is lightweight but sturdy and strong, supporting up to 400 lbs. It adjusts to accommodate users from 4' 10" to 6' 8", again with ultimate ease. You'll also appreciate The walker features NEW Locking Swivel wheels, making it perfect whether you like your wheels strait or to swivel. It also comes standard with rear easy-glide feet contributing to ease of maneuverability. The EZ Fold-N-Go Walker comes in three stylish colors: Black Walnut, Cobalt Blue or Regal Rose. Weighs 8 lbs. Walker comes standard with Locking-Swivel Wheels when purchased from Stander.
Excellent product. Comes fully assembled. There are just two easy adjustments to make: the front wheels can be made to swivel or go straight only, and the height of the handles can be adjusted. Both adjustments are easy to make. The product is light, around 8 pounds, and folds up incredibly easily into a very compact, portable size. It also stands up by itself when folded. It is easy to carry up and down steps or place in a car. I think it would fit in the overhead storage bin on a commercial flight, but I haven't tried to do this yet.
I note that I have a severe ataxia condition and use the product myself. It glides easily over concrete, wood floors, stone or marble floors, and most carpet. A rollator is better for extended walking outside, but this product is much more portable and compact.
The foldable walker is perfect for travel. I am using a rollator for all my movement but when I need to drive my car, this walker is perfect to get from the trunk where I store the rollator to the front seat of the car. It folds nicely and it fits perfectly on the passenger front seat. Also when I travel by plane. They provide a wheelchair to the gate but this walker helps me get to my seat and it can be folded and stored in the compartment above. The wheels can be locked in one position or let them move around but I lock them for stability. I have used it for almost a year and it is just perfect for travel. I would not use it for long walks but when you need a foldable walker, this is perfect
This is so perfect there are not words to properly praise it! Had to raise the handles so I could stand up
straight (easily done). Wheels can be straight or turn which I prefer as they go around objects. The miracle is in the way it folds so easily and can be set out of the way....so perfect when out to dinner or visiting. Have been stopped by others wanting to know where to purchase. Other walkers checked were bulky, heavy and difficult to take out, while the Stander just folds up and lays behind car seats.
This walker is the Cadillac of walkers. So easy to use and the wheels are placed front instead of on the sides which makes it easy to get through home doorways. The folding feature and lightness make it so easy to pick up and set in the car. I highly recommend this walker to anyone!
An outstanding product. One user said the product was unstable, I wonder if the knobs that secured the handlebars were tight. Build quality is outstanding as was customer support. I ordered the walker and then discovered the also made a rollator, they agreed to exchange the walker for the rollator. The walker is very light, 8 pounds and folds easily. While I'm sure they may not recommend it the walker can easily be slightly folded in to a narrower width to go through narrow openings. The rollator can also be narrowed, but t takes more strength to fold it in.
