I could walk(barely) with my Rollator last January, everything seemed too far away in house for it to be worth the effort. Didn't want a chair but got one anyway. Wow, what an aid!!!! Zoom around everywhere now, every room downstairs, by the end of the day my battery is really low. I get more done. Some say once in a chair, never get out, so I'm sure to stretch my bad leg hamstring (couldn't unbend my leg for awhile after being in chair all day), can toilet self and use standing with grab bar to practice putting weight on bad leg because for a trial coming up , have to be mobile. I love my chair. I can zoom onto deck. go down ramp DH buildt (way too steep. it's like a rollar Coaster to me)Go around pool, see the butterflies!! It's a tool that's given me freedom. Walking is over rated if it's that hard to do and really took freedom from me and imposed limits)
