I've got an NHS freebie rollator. It's totally crap as it has no suspension at all and makes my hands go numb. I also have to lift it up kerbs which makes it impossible for me to use. I have been known to use it to go to the hospital appointments as I have my husband with me for them so he lifts it over obstacles, and the hospital is only a few minutes walk away. I'm moving on to a wheelchair this week - both to push as a rollator and to be used properly. Hoping that will work better.

I honestly don't understand why rollator manufacturer's haven't looked to the pram industry to make them more usable. You see all these lovely, soft-rolling, bouncy prams and most rollators are juddery and naff. Hope yours is better!
Thanks Kathy! My face is feeling much better today

With my insurance, I only had to pay $26. It seems to be a pretty decent one. It has a basket, smooth rolling wheels and good brakes. It is just big! My husband tried to put it in the trunk of our car and it was too big. Maybe we can get it in a different way...I hope since it takes up the entire backseat

Good luck with your wheelchair
