Stander Wonder Walker Plus, Lightweight Folding Mobility Aid for Adults, Seniors, and Elderly, Collapsible Travel EZ Fold-N-Go with Wheels, Glides, & Basket, Sport Red

This will be the second one of these I have purchased for someone. They are so convenient, lightweight, and portable. Especially if your a traveller. It folds up like an umbrella, and can be used like a cane. It's genius.

After seeing a friend’s Stander Walker, I was impressed with its portability and ordered one. This Walker is great for taking to church, restaurants, etc. because it is so lightweight and compact, yet still sturdy. For my needs, however, it was incomplete since it lacked two features – a seat, and small rear wheels. Being a retired engineer, I eventually figured out two solutions worth sharing that have solved my problems yet do not significantly affect the unit’s weight or compactness. As shown in the attached pictures, NO ALTERATIONS TO THE WALKER ARE NECESSARY: 1). ADDING A SEAT: Amazon carries all items -- one 21” Axle Strap (item “ALL10204”), plus two 3/16” Large D Shackles (item “BOOJH1SL65”), plus two Seat Belt Pads (item “B001JEIHAG”). This will yield a padded sling seat that is about kitchen stool height (26”). {If a longer 24” Axle Strap is used, such as item “B005C2ASRQ” or “B00EEFJ9EA”, the seat will be about 1 ½” lower.} Place a strap D-ring in a Shackle and place the removable piece into the lowest visible hole in the walker’s handle, with the “eye” on the outside so you don’t hit you’re hips on it when sitting. Subsequently place the seat belt pads over the strap, with a small gap between them and with the opening side toward the crossbar and with the double layer of padding on top. [If you use one longer seat belt pad, instead of two shorter ones, then the seat will not fold properly when folding up the walker.] 2). ADDING REAR WHEELS WITH “BRAKES”: If you are concerned about the walker sled feet potentially damaging your floors, or how the sliding sled feet slow you down when walking, consider adding these “Rear Brake Attachments”. Because the Stander Walker’s rear legs slant, however, it is necessary to have a handyman make some relatively easy modifications to the Invacare units before they can attached to the Stander walker. When installed, your walker’s re-installed sled feet will normally rub slightly on the new rear wheels and this will keep the walker from sliding away when not in use. However, when a user presses down SLIGHTLY on the walker handles, the new rear wheels will roll smoothly. When a user presses down MORE FIRMLY on the rear handles, the walker’s original sled feet will touch the ground and act as the walker’s brake, just as originally intended. Amazon carries a Rear Brake Attachment (by Invacare) in several lengths. I used the cheapest and shorter 10” size (item “B005PGD830” for a pair). First, a handyman will have to use a sharp 3/16” drill-bit to drill out the aluminum rivets that hold the wheel assembly onto the Invacare tube. Next, slide the plastic brake assembly up the tube as needed so you can mark and cut off the excess tubing and foot from the Invacare tube just above the last hole in the tube (about 15/16” below the centerline of the drilled out hole). The easiest and best way to cut the tubing is to use a tubing cutter (a 1 1/8” capacity cutter is needed). Finally, unscrew the Stander Walker rear sled foot hex screw and temporarily remove the sled foot (a wrench apparently is also supplied with the Stander sled feet replacements, if you don’t already have one). Lay the walker on its side, slide the brake attachment back over the walker aligning the holes and re-insert the walker foot in the walker leg. Next insert a 1 ¾” long standard #10 Machine Screw (available at any hardware store) through the brake assembly, tubing, walker leg, and sled foot and add the nut, and screw everything together – both the screw head and nut will fit snugly into the existing holes on the plastic brake assembly. Repeat the process for the second walker leg. If you no longer desire either additional feature, either or both changes are easily removable and the walker restored to its as-shipped state. These changes work well for me and hopefully this information will be useful to someone else. /Henry Vaughan

If you’re caring for a senior or other who is wobbly when they walk who doesn’t seriously believe they are not 23 year old athletes this walker is terrific. It has a relatively small footprint and weighs less than 8 pounds. It easily folds up for easy transport and easily opens up. It’s strong: handles up to 300 lbs. and it’s well made and very sturdy. It’s also brilliantly designed. The front end has wheels of course, but the backend has little skis that slip easily along all kinds of surfaces without getting stuck. My 97 year old mother has complained bitterly about the last two walkers we got her. This one she loves. And uses. No more fights about whether she will take her walker out in public. She’s happy with it. She uses it. And that just thrills me!

This Walker is very hard to steer. I want to walk straight forward and it veers to the left and the right.Back and forth. I have to fight it to keep it going in the direction I want. It tires my arms and thighs. I do like the fact that it is so lightweight I can lift it even though I am 82 and have had a stroke And it is easy to fold ;however, it is so very very difficult to guide that I fear it could cause falling. we have tried locking the wheel straight and /or swivel.. That doesn’t help. We have tried raising or lowering the handles. That doesn’t help. Very hard to steer.

After my an accident in my 30s left me and my spine with life altering injuries I found myself needing a walker to help me to get around, especially with new balance and proprioception impairments. The standard $20 folding metal walkers probably impede walking more than they help it as they're not terribly sturdy and if you can't lift them properly between taking steps (slowing your walking speed) they will catch on ever rock, pavement change or fiber of carpet. I prefer to the rollator walker because it's so smooth and there's a certain amount of relieved anxiety I never knew I had by knowimg that I'll always have a place to sit when I need to and that I have the means to carry things without asking for help. The only drawback of these rollators is that if I want to go out with a friend or via lyft/uber I can't count on their being space in the car from the former or help from the latter as it's too heavy and cumbersome for me to get in and out of a car without sliding it along the bumper. This walker is so light weight that I can easily get it in and out of a car and even have it with me at the seat. It has a strong and sturdy design. The wheels and mini skis that it glides can sometimes catch on things but it won't put you at a fall risk like the standard walker. Because this walker is so light it takes some getting used to as it's very easily influenced by carpet and other floors to wander from side to side. Putting a bit more weight on it will solve the problem. My favorite feature is that by nature of how it folds, if you dont lock it in place you can easily slightly close the walker, while still depending on it to keep you upright, to get narrow if you're walking through areas that won't allow for the full expanded width of the walker. This is especially helpful when you're trying to get through a crowd of people. The bag that comes on the front isn't great for carrying much and as soon as you use it for anything not flat the fabric stretches out and looks saggy. Other replacement bags that give you more storage or cup holders won't work because to close the walker with a bag atrached it can't be rigid as it must crumple inward as the metal folds. This is one are I feel could use improvement, as could the option for a cupholder accessory.

Este andador es muy práctico, portátil, ligero y durable, porque los materiales son de muy buena calidad, tanto la aleación de aluminio, como los accesorios (llantas, bolsa, patas deslizables y los mangos de agarre). Está equipado con una bolsa de tela muy resistente y lavable. Ya había comprado otro igual hace cinco años para mi mamá que padece de la columna y las rodillas y le encantó por su facilidad de uso, se pliega de forma simple, es muy ligero, compacto y firme; desde entonces solo le hemos cambiado los mangos y las patas deslizables que se pueden conseguir por separado, el resto está intacto.

This is perfect for the vehicle, folds up fast and pops back out in second. I was concerned about skids on the back but it turns out to be a non issue. Wide and stable, well build and solid. Was pricey but I understand why since using it. Will last for years.

This rollator came on holiday with me to give me support in walking due to my having recently had an hip operation. It folds down to a long umbrella shape, is light and is very easy to open up to use. Has a very handy bag attachment which folds with the rollator when the rollator is not being used. Very quick delivery, and a good price. It is dearer than other rollators, but it makes up for this by being very transportable.. I researched this rollator in depth before I got one and was surprised to see the difference in prices being charged. At the time of buying mine this seller was the cheapest. Very good for travelling , shopping etc, and it stands up when folded not taking up much room. Is very easy to steer, and I felt very safe. It has supported me both inside and out. Perfect!

Its very nice becayse we can move with car,bus and other.

The overall product is strong, yet light. Easy to fold and unfold. Sturdy and the wheels very flexible. I purchased the rose colour. A very subtle rose. Quite pleased with that. Packaged well.
