No one ever wants to use one of these especially when you’re only 40 years old and living with multiple sclerosis . This roller is very sharp looking and extremely comfortable it folds up very nicely and is very light going in and out of a car . I love using it outdoors it rides really nice over all sorts of terrain . This roller has given me back part of my life . Using a Walkingstick just wasn’t reasonable anymore with this I don’t look like a little old lady! I walk faster and it has a great turning radius and I feel like it fits into the smallest of spaces . If you’re young and you have to use one of these I highly recommend this one the design is very stylish and sharp and it really doesn’t look like some sort of Walker device !! I have the white one and get many compliments on it !
I’ve been using this for over a year and I love it. First it’s really cute and for a young person, it totally does not look like a walker. In fact I’ve had a few people ask me where’s the baby? Thinking it’s a stroller. I work full time as a 6th grade teacher and it gets around my classroom no problem and my kids think it’s cool. I get around everywhere and I get so many comments and questions about it. Drive needs to do a campaign geared toward young users, we all aren’t older!!
I love almost everything about this walker:
- The way it folds makes it much easier to transport/lift than my old walker. It folds smaller.
- Larger wheels are much nicer and stable for outside and uneven terrain and going over curbs.
- Much more stylish than standard type walkers.
- Seating is very comfortable. My old walker's seat was a bit high and uncomfortable for me because it was standard size. This being available in petite height is the biggest plus for me.
- Build feels sturdy. Cables are hidden. Brakes easy to use and stable.
What don't I like?
- For me it's not always the easiest to turn in a tight area. The larger wheels are an adjustment for me.
- Handle a bit wobbly. Only on one side so it might be an issue with my particular unit and not the design. (I purchased discounted unit from Amazon Marketplace.)
- The price. I hate that something I rely on to function in every day life is so expensive.
- I don't love the storage bag and how it attaches. I'd prefer something others couldn't see into and could be removed more quickly (velcro or snaps).
Purchased this for an elderly relative. It is really well made and much easier to navigate outdoors because of the big wheels. It collapses in half by pulling the handle in the middle of the seat. This makes transporting it so much easier. Simple, sturdy and very well designed. The other more common models offered by Drive and approved by medicare have a seat that is too high for a short person with a wide butt. For those of you that were struggling to find the correct seat height and width - look no further. Would purchase again in a heartbeat!
My dad LOVES his new "walker friend". He was very reluctant to use a walker ( it took him a week to open the box!), but after falling once we knew he needed some more support and stability. He likes the look of the walker too, but especially appreciates how easy and smoothly it works. Since he stated using it because he feels safer, he is walking more outside, getting more exercise, his back doesn't hurt as much and he getting stronger too! This one RLT is great for a small sized person. Great price too. Highly recommended!
This walker is superb!!!! The larger wheels are great for traversing over rough terrain. Braking ability is excellent. The attached bag is great for storage. The seat is nice to rest when needed. Design and features are proficient. I have needed to tighten a screw. I have not abused, but I have used it a great deal since purchased and that is why the screw came loose. I am 5'4 and it is a great fit. The handles can be adjusted to different heights. This walker is for shorter humans.

I bought this to replace my Hugo and I like it better than the one I had. The seat is comfortable and it's so easy to fold. I'm a big girl and it's comfortable to sit in. Very smooth ride. It came out of the box completely assembled.
I bought this last week, I bought it because it was a petite and I'm 5'1" tall. It is built very well and very good looking. However, I returned it because I found it too short for me. But it is a very good walker and I have already received the regular size walker and I love it.
This is my little white Cadillac! I get lots of comments about it, and it is very light weight for a walker, folds up easily to put in the back seat of the truck, and the large wheels go through lawn, sand and gravel easily. The only problem I have is my husband assembled it for me and lost the band that keeps it from unfolding until you remove it. Hopefully I can order another one from the company. Also, it paid to order on line; it was $100.00 less than in the local medical supply store.
This product has been wonderful for my 83-year old grandmother. It has increased her mobility and allows her to engage in many more activites without the stress on her back the older model walkers often did. The taller model allows her to stand straight, rather then bent over which was a result from other walkers she has tried. She is constantly approached by people whenever we are out inquiring about this walker. She has recommended it to several of her neighbors and friends.
Much sturdier than my rollacart. Will roll easily over grass and gravel without threatening to pitch me over. Nice foot pedal helps on curbs
Not good for transporting much stuff but you can't have everything! I saved some money by selecting white color and open box shipping.
