Then again, I do not know if either Costco or Sam's Club is in your area.
I like the padded seat and compartment under the seat. It allows me to put my purse and bottled water inside.
My Hugo is pretty beat up now. I am looking to go to a medical supply store for one to use exclusively inside the house to keep the dirt level at a minimum on the carpeted bedroom.
Plus, skinnier is better in the house.
But Kitt, good advice.  |
The particular rollator I have settled on after trying others in the stores is narrow enough for doorways in the house. No problem there. It is a good one. For me anyway. It does have the compartment under the seat as you say as well as a decent sized basket in the front part and all the other things I mentioned. It is a Sprite. The breaking system is also guaranteed for five years. So I guess that's a plus if one uses one for five years and does have problems. Like my husband said, probably most people do not use one for five years. IDK
The really big thing, among other things, that sold me is the rubber looking wheels which are just a tad wider. Plastic would not be for me. Thanks Aarcyn.
