Drive Medical 1239RD Foldable Rollator Walker with Seat, Red, 1 Count (Pack of 1)

Unit we received was metal. All parts were there and accounted for. Nothing was found broken, bent or otherwise in anything other than brand new condition. Being for my 100 lb, 5' elderly mother we thought it would be a great alternative to the wheelchair for any standing in line activity however, we found quickly that she had not the body weight nor strength to keep the brakes (back pegs depressed with rubber caps firmly on floor) engaged while trying to get up from the seated position. Being new to all this, it wasn't until after we returned it that it we figured before sitting, just put the walker against a wall, furniture, etc. so it wouldn't roll forward - but only IF that was an available option to begin with. The walker was sturdy and the only 1 I found with a seat and NO back wheels with the back support tubes extending down to a point where replacing the seemingly fault-prone spring loaded pegs with skids or worst case, tennis balls, would be easily doable. I wish it would have worked better in our case.

To any one interested in buying this product, it's not with it, the brakes for it does not last 1/2 a use it gets worn and doesn't work any more, when you call the manufacturer they give you a round a round they ask to send proof of purchase and pics, once you send it they do not answer back to you. What a waste of money I got. For experience don't buy it

This is a great walker I like it better than the one with the brakes I feel more comfortable on this one.

It was best decision to buy. The price was worth it.

This is a great walker that adjust well for the height of the user. I like the seat and backrest and the wheels that pivot making rolling much smoother!

I bought this Rollator for my mother when she went into the hospital and rehab. We used it for about a week and the back leg tips wore down making it unusable to push properly. I was sent 2 new tips, and they lasted 4 days with minimal use. Called company again to complain about the quality of the product. All they could do was send 2 more tips that will again probably wear down in less than a week. I would not recommend this product unless you want to spend money replacing the tips every week or less. Unfortunately 2 physical therapists said to stay away from the 4-wheel rollators as it is more complicated to maneuver handle brakes and then unsafe if memory is an issue.

Using this walker currently and have had it for 3 weeks now. The second day one of the braking mechanisms broke so I had to remove the other. Walker sits crooked now and does not lock when pressure is put on the handles. It still loves even though it has rubber feet. I also use this in my walk in shower which is a bonus. It is a bit heavy but I prefer to use this over the aluminum one I have.

This was a very good product. I bought it for a friend after she had surgery, and it worked better than expected.
